Cosmic Consciousness, Panpsychism and Mystery of Mind with Dr. Philip Goff | Mind Meld 376

Erick Godsey returns to share a four-day vision quest, riff on altered states, meaning-making, Carl Jung and a personal encounter with a mysterious orb, UFO-like intelligence. 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership In this one, we explore why humans across cultures have intentionally entered non-ordinary states of consciousness, and how practices like fasting, isolation, and ritual deprivation can open profound psychological and mythic terrain. Drawing on esotericism, Jung and mythopoetic psychology, we talk about meaning-making, initiation, and why modern life may be starving us of transformative experiences. Erick also recounts a striking moment when what appeared to be a star or orb seemed to actively engage with him — moving, observing, and inducing what felt like a reconfiguration within his psyche. Rather than fear, the experience carried a calm, reassuring quality, raising deep questions about perception, consciousness, and the nature of intelligence. We also zooming out to discuss disclosure and the UFO phenomenon in general, the film Age of Disclosure, and multiple interpretations of the phenomenon — psychological, symbolic, physical, and beyond. 👀 Catch Erick's podcasts, courses and musings here: https://www.erickgodsey.com/ 👈 https://www.instagram.com/erickgodsey/ 👈 Links For Third Eye Drops 🌀 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership For hundreds more podcasts: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: thirdeyedrops.com/itunes 🎧 Spotify: https://shorturl.at/ahnB1 🌀 Website https://www.thirdeyedrops.com ✌️Follow Michael on Instagram https://instagram.com/third_eye_drops Learn more about your ad choices.

James Hodgkins enters the mind meld! In this one, we dive into one of the strangest and most controversial dimensions of the UFO world — The alleged use of psionic assets in NHI contact, intelligence gathering, and even crash-retrieval operations. 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership James Hodgkins isn’t a an esoteric mystic living in isolation. He comes from a Silicon Valley and background. But the realm of the paranormal is nothing new for James. H’s been experiencing high strangeness and psychic phenomena since childhood. Over the years, James has formally and informally explored psi further. He has studied Remote viewing and engaged in what he describes as intentional contact with non-human intelligences. James was also the first psionic asset for Skywatcher and went on to help build their psionic team. In this conversation, we explore: -What it means to be a “psionic asset” -The origins of his psychic experiences and high-strangeness encounters -Remote viewing, contact attempts, and consciousness-based communication -Skywatcher -The philosophical, and ontological implications of psionics -What James believes these intelligences are -What ontological maps James believes describe reality and the phenomenon best If you’re fascinated by UFOs, contact phenomena, psi research, altered states, or the strange intersection of consciousness and technology, this is a mind-meld you won’t want to miss.

In this transmission, we explore what I believe to be one of the most important chapters in the most books ever written on the UFO topic. The final chapter of John Keel's classic, Operation Trojan Horse. 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops What if the UFO phenomenon isn't technological,but ontological? What if these lights, entities and high-strangeness encounters are not just visitors from another star,but expressions of a deeper intelligence woven through the very structure of reality — an intelligence the ancients once called by many names: Spirits, daimons, angels, and gods. In the final chapter of Operation Trojan Horse, John Keel argues exactly that. But what is their goal? Are the here to invade or to initiate?

Seeker, entrepreneur and researcher, Sean Webb returns to the mind meld! In this one, we riff at the intersection of consciousness, UFOs awakening experiences, higher intelligences, and suppressed physics. 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership Sean shares how a life-altering awakening experience shattered his assumptions about the mind — and how consciousness may explain everything from UFO intelligence to idealism, psi, and even classified propulsion research. From Federico Faggin to Bernardo Kastrup, from black-budget programs to the deepest layers of selfhood, we muse on the idea that consciousness isn’t just involved in the phenomenon, it is the phenomenon. Topics Include: Sean’s awakening experience Sean's relationship with a higher intelligence Why consciousness may be fundamental Idealism and the structure of reality UFOs, NHIs, and the “other intelligence problem” Can AI become consciousness? How consciousness could interface with advanced propulsion Are black-budget labs already studying these links? Psi, and the physics of the mind Antigravidic technologies Psionic contact with other intelligences Whether you’re here for the metaphysics, the mysteries, or the mind-bending science, this one goes deep into the hidden architecture behind reality.

🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon Dr. Alex Gómez-Marín enters the mind meld! Alex is a neuroscientist and physicist whose work dances at the edge of science and spirit. He’s the director of the Pari Center where he explores the frontiers of consciousness, cognition, and life itself. Alex has also had his own brush with the infinite — a near-death experience that further shattered his assumptions about mind, matter, and reality In this one, we navigate the mysterious terrain where neuroscience and physics meet metaphysics. We explore what his NDE revealed about the nature of consciousness, why materialism may be reaching its limits, and how physics might point toward a universe that is alive, aware, and participatory. Along the way, we dive into ancient and modern models of mind, from platonism to panpsychism. If you’ve ever felt that consciousness is more than neurons firing — that awareness is woven into the very fabric of reality — this one’s for you. Riffs include: -Alex’s near-death experience and how it changed his worldview -Consciousness, neuroscience, and the limits of materialism -Physics, metaphysics, and the living universe -The continuity of mind before and after death -Ancient philosophical echoes in modern science -Why the science of tomorrow must take consciousness seriously Links for Alex: Bio: https://paricenter.com/alex-gomez-marin/ X account: https://x.com/behaviOrganisms Links For Third Eye Drops 🌀 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership Hear our 300-plus other podcasts: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: thirdeyedrops.com/itunes 🎧 Spotify: https://shorturl.at/ahnB1 🌀 Website https://www.thirdeyedrops.com ✌️Follow Michael on Instagram https://instagram.com/third_eye_drops Learn more about your ad choices.

Andres is a consciousness researcher, mathematician, and President of the Qualia Research Institute (QRI), an organization that explores the structure of experience itself through a number of lenses. Their work dives into the geometry of consciousness, the structure and phenomenology of altered states, and the tantalizing possibility that the universe itself is built from qualia, the raw substance of direct experience. In this one, we traverse: -Entities, altered states and realms of consciousness. -Holographic consciousness: Is the universe a self-reflecting field of awareness? -Physics and phenomenology — Can conscious experience be measured geometrically and structurally? -The geometry of reality — How sacred patterns and mathematical beauty might underlie all experience. -UFOs, intelligence, and the living cosmos — Are we part of a grander field of minds and sentient geometry? Whether you lean mystical, mathematical or somewhere in between, this one will perk up your wonder whiskers.
