    Yual, Robert Sapolsky, E.O. Wilson, Bruce Lipton and such others are true gifts that emerged for the mankind.. for the kindered souls... like someone said it unshackles anyone deeply listening from years of brainwashing from Childhood.. wherever we are in this world... such people give a touch and feel to vedanta and eastern philosophy... Yual's ideas have connected so many dots in my own model... and often validated my own meanderings and understanding... feel gifted to listen to them...

    In another interview he says that story telling is our superpower. Then he tells us "not to view the universe as a story" that "the universe does not function as a story". But the universe is a story! It's a slow process of evolution. To think our ancestors have evaded war, famine, and disease OR to think that our ancestors sacrificed everything just to raise and protect their children, to try and give them a better life than themselves. This has to be the most romantic and meaningful story that we have. The hero's journey! Not to mention this story takes place on a giant space rock we call Earth which has its own incredible story that takes place within our galaxy. And the Galaxy has its OWN incredible story. All these stories are so deeply intertwined like layers to a song.

    Interesting how his critics say his arguments do not stand up to evidence based analysis, but what they don’t say is how he encourages people to think. Often academics shut thinking down. The real talent Noah has is to expand our thinking and that is worth so much more than the next opaque academic masterpiece! Keep it coming dude! And thanks. 😎

    I think what captivates the readers of Noah is not the mundane line of exciting story-telling, rather the abundance of intellectual sparkles that shine the path of the story that he leads us through. Sheer sparkles of intelligence mesmerises the audiences, the way the stars in the dark night sky do; and Noah's intelligence does it the most.

    Our lives are without meaning to the universe (sorry for the reality check to religious believers), but they can be full of meaning to ourselves. Meaning is an individual reality. You cannot "look for" and "find" meaning, because it is not existing externally, predefined, out there somewhere to be found. You *define* your own meaning, whatever appeals to your heart, if you can simply get in touch with your own heart and have enough ability to pursue your sense of meaning.
    To see how our lives do not have meaning or value to the universe, one need only to take an honest look at the caprice of life, if your psyche can withstand it, without retreat into magical thinking and denial.

      I never find it easy, with a consistent wandering mind, body aches all over and an urge to reengage in life activities.
      Good tips from Yuval to engage more in my meditative practices.

    Thank you for this interest podcast. Tuvalu perspective is often illuminating.

Secondly I believe we should expect our leaders to be authentic and responsible both privately and publicly.
    We certainly don’t want to be entrusting the nuclear codes to inauthentic and irresponsible leaders just putting on a show.
    Nurturing these qualities is part of our evolution as a species. Our very existence depends upon it!

      It certainly appears that his meaning for living is to have huge influence on WEF and other policy makers which the rest of us meaningless people are expected to comply with and be thankful for their superior intellectual capacity. Why write books and speak publicly if you’re not trying to influence culture and policies? He is definitely very busy living a life which is the opposite of “meaningless.”

    Captain Semantics here to not save the day, but just to be here. The universe has no purpose, only properties. Purpose within the absolute confines of whatever properties we choose is up to us. Thank God for purpose! May as well thank God, who else would you thank? If it offends your purpose, try to think of the phrase as meaningless rhetoric, which of course it is as soon as you think that. Like magic! Purpose is the only thing in the universe we have absolute personal control over.

    What Mr. Harari says about readers focusing in on what he considered the most banal and widely known things as being, to them, the most significant, fits perfectly with Gore Vidal's take on history in his wonderful novel, Julian. The Roman Emperor is writing his (fictional) memoirs, and almost apologizes to the reader for relating "what everybody already knows" because, in a hundred years or a thousand, will they be known commonly? What is common knowledge to specialists in history or human evolution may be both essential and, to those specialists, seemingly banal. Thank you for your videos.

    For the meaning (purpose) of life, simply look at molecular self-assembly manifest in active DNA: The meaning of life is to live. Large complex dendritic networks (i.e. brains) get lost in so many questions and uncertainties. Simpler brains of lower life forms simply live.

    This man is a eugenics enthusiast. At one early Davos great reset conference he & the others were debated whether the human race needed to be be reduced to 200 million or 500 million. He said that with the coming advances, most people would not be needed; and most people could not justify their existence. I assume this “admirer” knows this & agrees. Horrible person. Even Hitler never imagined something like that.

      He writes that, among other irrevocable phenomena, AI will self-evolve exponentially beyond our control, and treat humans as we have treated animals historically: as war conscripts; cruelly and brutally “raised” in industrialized settings as if animals are insensate machines; and brutalizing the humans who slaughter non-human animals. I dare say not even the 1% will escape AI dominance. Mr Harari is one of the most original thinkers of any epoch of life on earth.

      I find it useful to think in terms of purpose as opposed to meaning . My actions, speech and attitudes are amenable to intervention in the direction of promoting less suffering and more happiness in others . This seems deeply purposeful and for me is enough . To strive for some ultimate meaning Even if it was a riddle that could be solved , if the well-being of living creatures isn’t central to this “ meaning “ then for me it would have no utility in ways that matters so would be rendered meaningless .
      The book , Altruism was very useful in fostering my alignment towards this purpose.
