When Physics Meets Fiction | Brian Greene & Dan Brown

When green meets brown

Such a beautiful example of how two adult human beings should communicate like. No prejudices. Just both exploring the unknowability of the Mystery of Life

The moment I see a new video from Professor Green i know there is something I’m going to enjoy.

Viewing the video reminded me of what Ibn Arabi said: "Do not be tied to a specific belief that denies all others, for you will be deprived of an immense good," a principle of faith that also extends to any pursuit of knowledge. Similarly, it invites us not to discard or exclude other valuable truths or knowledge, but rather to consider how they can enrich a more comprehensive understanding, recognizing that the vastness of reality is hardly exhausted in a single perspective. For many, faith and science are the primordial foundations of the human house; therefore, philosophy and art are the structure where its spirit dwells, questions, and expresses itself. Humans, as recent evolutionary suckling mammals, have become dazzled and fascinated, absorbing only pure scientific knowledge and technology, slowly relegating philosophy and art, pinnacles of imagination and creativity. Quantum physics, which still has much to reveal, has shown us that Kant's "the thing-in-itself" hides layers and layers of knowledge and mysteries that will take us a long time to uncover, if that's even possible. Science should not just be about observation and explaining; it's should also be about envisioning new possibilities. Without imagination, creativity and ….faith, our minds would not be able to envision “unrealistic” scenarios or hypothesis, for example: a “evolved” consciousness that “allow” us to “integrate”, holistically and intimately with Reality. Great video, regards.

Finally, something online that is enjoyable to watch.

Dan’s new book was fantastic. Every bit a page turner as the DaVinci Code

Consider this possibility. All consciousness exists everywhere and any particular brain is a filter that allows a particular experience.

What a great example of a deeply insightful interview. They are both favorite authors of mine. They had the conversation I would have loved to have had with each of them given the opportunity- and certainly much more! I will listen to this many times over the next few years.

I just finished SOS. I am just blown away. Marvelous. Recommending to all my reading friends.

what an absolute brain gasm to watch these two converse!!!
