Scientific Materialism, Religion & the Collective Unconscious - Nish Dubashia (Conversation # 3)

Writer and speaker Nish Dubashia is joined by a group of six students of Spiral Dynamics and Integral Theory as they together explore:
(a) Atheism and Scientific Materialism
(b) The Abrahamic Traditions (Judaism, Christianity and Islam)
(c) The Collective Unconscious
(d) The Integration of East and West
Nish uses his Diamond Model of Reality to explore (a) - (c), and draws on the work of Ken Wilber and Adi Da to explore (d).

Such a fascinating presentation and discussion, a rich panel of people from different disciplines sharing profound perspectives. Nish’s Diamond model is magnificent, love how he interweaves his knowledge, intuition and wisdom into his diagrams. I also love the analysis of how the eastern and western approaches can be limiting without integration - “waking up without growing up or growing up without waking up.” 😊❤👍💥
