This is one of the best scientific talks I've seen in TH-cam.
I've awelways thought "Awe" should be a subject in the curriculum of school and college...or included as one of the main teaching goals for any class /subject taught... The ability to inspire awe, to reveal the incredible aspects of nature and reality and art and science is the way to encourage enthusiasm for life and work of humanity, filling it with passion.
Excellent, excellent and excellent!! I always refer to Life and the experience of living as *our* "journey upon this Road to Awe". It did my Heart and Mind good to see this presentation. Thank you so much.
This. is. the. absolute. best.
Are the talks delivered that day part of some playlist? I'd really like to see them all, they are so interesting and awe-inspiring.
You would not believe what I do.
I don't believe what I do🙂🕯️..but then again I do. I've always been a little bit weird. *Shrugs*.
I'm a philosopher. A very good one. I began a lateral thinkers hub, & about half the year through.. my laugh began to change.
As a philosopher it is in my interest to practice to be honest. (I recommend the four agreements audiobook. Begin at the smokey mirror.) That brought on my first bouts of awe. The amazing things that have happened as I've collected minds, made me feel so happy the happiness welled up so deep inside me one afternoon & it wouldn't come out, & I went into a trance. It happened about 4 times last year, & I thought maybe it would kill me as I had howled to break the trance once. It makes my breath flutter, and when I finally take my first breath again, it feels so beautiful I start to cry. It didn't kill me though. It grew & grew as though it is meant to be exercised, & now I cannot tell where it begins & ends. If you like, come & say hello at Krystel Spicer Mind Ark FB. It just so happened I write about time expansion, truth faster than light, arise in collective consciousness via ripple effect of flailers/liars (via freedom of choice)(they're withdrawing anyway), a mass immaculate conception of us all into instruments of truth & life in ours & flailers places, a grand scale rise (missing links🙂🥂), &, everlasting life. I don't get it either. It was always something I wanted to do, I was afraid I'd be judged. Awe is the most beautiful thing in creation, & I think it has turned me child-like somewhat. I spend most of everyday startled.
I have been looking into what makes a sacred space sacred…the space or the energy and why people are drawn to them…connecting to awe which brought me to look up awe and found this talk and your comment. Any updates…two yrs later?
