- This episode of Spotlights features Matthew Segall, PhD, Assistant Professor in the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness program at the California Institute of Integral Studies. Matt discusses a recent conference celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Center for Process Studies, which is a research center at the Claremont School of Theology at Claremont University, focusing particularly on the relevance of Alfred North Whitehead's process-relational philosophy. Whitehead has been a profound influence on environmental ethics and eco-theology for several decades. Matt also discusses his forthcoming book, Crossing the Threshold: Etheric Imagination in the Post-Kantian Process Philosophy of Schelling and Whitehead. He highlights the role of imagination in bringing science, spirituality, and philosophy into harmony with one another and with our planetary and cosmic context.

Imagination is assimilative and receptive of external and internal objects ... And is instantaneous in the formation of images within our perception. Space does not feature in this perspective . And time is circular.
Good conversation. Thank you
Aether... This is a very ancient conception of divine imagination. The latter platonists of whom very little is said had a full treatment of PHANTASIA THROUGH PYTHOGORAS ...
Everything is to scale and yet scale-free. We exist because we exist--we need to constantly recreate ourselves on every imaginable scale. Considering concept of time, we are advancing informational complexity to a point of singularity with complexity of matter (i.e. entropy/energy)...in so doing our existence now is the attractor state for our existence extrapolated through that singularity event (i.e. rebirth of universe). Karma got it right, not in terms of morality, but seeding our "future" lives. This goes beyond mere imagination, it's living.
Pre-ordering Matt's book now.....
Wow, this is really interesting! Have to read Schelling now. What about Taoist “chi”? Zhenbao Lin is using meditation for healing, and it actually works!
Yes the serious schools of TaiChi (ChiGong) there teachings about the "Qi field"
Thank you!@@nealepovey1752
