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

Philosopher, Scientist, Author and mystic, Dr. Tom Cheetham enters the mind meld. Video episode 👈 Like nearly all of my favorite thinkers, Tom holds multiple kinds of wisdom. He has a rigorous academic background in philosophy and science. He even spent years as a biology and environmental studies professor. But, even with all of that technical expertise, Tom still thirsted for something more, something beyond the material. That something more arrived in the form of mythopoetic geniuses like author and psychologist, James Hillman, Carl Jung and, especially, philosopher and author Henry Corbin. The above wizarding triad led Tom to a decades-long on-going obsession with understanding the visionary, and the imaginal. The realm Corbin called the "mundus imaginalis." 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon 🎧 Sub and Review on Apple Podcasts  🎧 Sub and Review on Spotify  👁Watch and Subscribe on Youtube 🌀 Website

🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon Watch the video version here! Plato's Allegory of the Cave is a powerful tale. Not only is it one of the oldest versions of what, today, we'd call the "matrix" or "simulation" scenario, it's the most practical, prescient, and esoteric. In fact, Plato's cave and the Republic at-large contain occulted layers of meaning that scholars are still discovering and debating about to this day. In this transmission, we'll summarize the tale and do a deep dive into its more esoteric, often missed layers of wisdom. 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon 🎧 Sub and Review on Apple Podcasts  🎧 Sub and Review on Spotify  👁Watch and Subscribe on Youtube 🌀 Website
