- An Evening with Rupert Sheldrake on Science and Spirituality: Reuniting science and spirituality for the wellbeing of people and planet
Recorded on 21st November 2019
Hosted by the Fintry Trust with the Arnos Vale Trust at Arnos Vale Anglican Chapel, Bristol
Are science and spirituality compatible? Are we on the threshold of a new understanding of their relationship?
Science and spirituality play hugely important roles in how we understand and engage with the experiences of life. However, scientific materialism has made it increasingly difficult for people to accept the ‘blind faith’ of many religions, or to believe in supernatural or spiritual realms.
Many of the world’s wisdom traditions, on the other hand, embrace the reality and power of non-material realms. And new scientific initiatives, which explore mind - body links, such as the neuroscience of meditation and its effects on wellbeing, are beginning to open new perspectives on reality.
A short introductory talk by the Fintry Trust will reveal some ancient scientific conceptions of reality, which differentiate between the ‘Above and the Below’, and which lay the foundations for a more holistic world view.
Rupert Sheldrake will then explore themes from his recent books: Ways to Go Beyond: Spiritual Practices in a Scientific Age, & Science and Spiritual Practices Reconnecting through Direct Experiences, followed by questions.
Come and explore key questions on science and spirituality - both ancient and contemporary - and their relevance today.

'A genius and polymath without a shred of narcissism'. Thanks again Rupert for shedding some light through yet another wonderful lecture!
I love and am so grateful to this man for his heart, and his renegade unrelenting scientific curiosity!
Brilliant AGAIN! Thanks Rupert
The World needs and has always needed people who are brave enough to think outside the box ! The World is the better for it too !
Lol outside the box within an abrahamic tradition inspired frame of mind.. sure.. very outside the box...
@@galapagoensis But a Hindu guru told him to explore his own nation and family's religious traditions... 🙂
@@galapagoensis Yes, you can think outside the box even with that frame of mind. Rupert also openly admits he does not take the bible literally and i dont think he is a cultist type. I think hes in it for the meditation, the connection with other people and stuff like that.
@@galapagoensis Thinking outside the box doesnt mean you have to be a hipster. You just need to be willing to go where others dont.
Rupert’s point is that we all need to get back inside the box
Thank you for sharing ❤️ love you all
He is great.
I’m not sure what you like best Rupert, hallucinogenics or cream teas lol 😂. Wonderful speech. You are an inspiration Rupert.
Every year my grandma took me different holly places ,specially if I see in my dream … so we promise to go and it was such a fun for me … it’s really like an inspiration and you must think -one thing -what is very important and ask and go and it will give to you ,but through you ,as you went to the pilgrim …. Amazing beautiful days ……🌞
So grateful for RS's fortitude in carrying out God's work as expressed in other comments below.
Rupert is doing god's work
I've had a bunch of mystical experiences
I adore Rupert Sheldrake, but I don’t agree on Carbon dioxid damage, as a dominant theat. The exhaustion of soil however a real urgent problem, and nobody touches it. Permacultural food production is a very spiritual solution, and saves earth, and its people.
Soul has no gender.
In the dream we experience the soul.
How can experience be a soul.
The work of the soul is to be experienced.
The soul cannot be experienced.
Spiritual awaking is awaking from the dream of thought.
In matriarchic societies, at least, the usual story is that shaman dresses in woman form in this "Middle Realm", but wears male form when traveling on shamanic journeys in other realms. The soul has both genders, and all between and beyond. Soul or spirit differentiates, creates constant unqueness, explores all forms of love.
Beautiful experience - as going to a church ……🌞
"It's not the building it's the people!" Christians parrot - yet every church building is a whited sepulchre and those in them are dead bones...
Thank you 🦋
I remember seeing a ufo once, just a little one. I was walking home from the bus stop after an evening at the pub and i saw a light just leave a street lamp and fly away. It was so brief i wasnt sure i really saw it even five minutes later.
I saw many more UFOs but only in my dreams. Some of those dreams felt very real though, particularly one where i felt the air all around me vibrating as i saw the craft appear.
Love organ music concerts …..beautiful experience ….🌞
Great thinker!!!
Agree! What do you find most interesting?
@@enantiodromiaa8589 If i may hijack the conversation, i find it very interesting that Rupert is the first person that ive seen actually provide proof of telepathy. I am very open minded but i also dislike people who only talk about vague stuff and cant really tie their theories to observable reality. I dont like bullshitters. I dont think Rupert is a bullshitter, i think he is a free thinker and he provides an explanation for some things that mainstream science doesnt, like the sense of being stared at. I always knew it was a real thing but i never had a theory of how it worked.
Thank you, Ru-Dog. Swear I heard someone call you that once. Sharing this video immediately, as there's so much healing truth in it. The future feels brighter for listening to you. Big love. This video would be slightly more enjoyable if the sound was synchronised with the picture, but that's the only criticism, might be more to do with the connection here but looks consistently out of synch. Doesn't really matter but it's a pity.
If you have the time to look at this tape, I think you will enjoy it, David Paul Kirkpatrick… He talks quite a bit about the pilgrimage from Glastonbury to Wells. Bad the festival close to Glastonbury near the summer solstice.
Air travel is, infact, less pollutig that most things. I think it represents less than 3% of all pollutants emmitted into the atmosphere.
👍
Like God is being rediscovered, book burning and witch trials are also back in vogue. Can’t be a coincidence.
The editor of Nature wanted a book burning of Rupert’s first book. So we treat prophetic scientists who open our paradigms to updating our scientific models. But for many science is an enforceable dogma.
Omg @george thompson I hear you

Nice Lecture, here. :)
“Every time’s an unusual time”-uh, so…………that would make it ………..not unusual, right?
I get making $ but too many ads, really
“Not Christian enough, not scientific enough”.... I would say he is more of both than the people who reject him.
Fasting would certainly bring you into the present.🤭
You can pray anywhere, at any time and no one else needs to know : it is your relationship with God - (however you perceive him to be) - not anyone else's. A wise man once advised to not pray in public. It is outward show, lime today's virtue signalling ; has nothing to do with God. He went on (the wise man) to advocate that you pray in private, on your own in your room with the door closed. On your own in your room (your mind) at any time you can pray without moving your mouth. The physical and psychological effects are immediate and pleasant.
Your wiseman was probably Covidian. They're big on telling people to stay home and meet God alone.

damn it, his whole talk was good until.. 1:41:49 he praises Greta and Extinction Rebellion. those are global elite psy-op propaganda. thumbs down, cause that's a hard fail.
And you were here because you respect science?
@@37Dionysos i guess i'd ask you the same thing...
@@WPTheRabbitHole OK, start basic. Global scientific consensus is major anthropogenic climate change is upon us. They're liars? Greta and E.R. are part of changing that course. They're liars? So who tells the truth, Alex Jones?
@@37Dionysos The similar scientific establishment that opposes sheldrakes ideas supports climate agenda. It’s just as corrupt as politicians and media
@@mmccrownus2406 Right, because in your basement laboratory you've disproven the global scientific consensus and it's a vast plot to control your every move.
