[Full Info]
Internationally recognized speaker, author, and social visionary, Duane Elgin, discussed how biology and physics show that the universe is not dead but rather uniquely alive, an insight which, he shows, is in harmony with all of the world's major spiritual traditions. Plato said the universe is a single living creature that embraces all living creatures within it. Indeed, the universe is a whole, integrated system, with an infinite amount of energy flowing through it, he said.

Interestingly, quantum physics has pointed toward probabilities and uncertainties at the very foundation of reality. This quality of choice or freedom is part of the free will that living creatures have, he noted. Science is finding consciousness up and down the cosmic spectrum, starting at the level of an atom, which makes certain kinds of choices, Elgin pointed out. Another character of a living creature is the ability to reproduce, and recent theories have proposed that black holes may be shooting out matter to create a 'Big Bang' that spawns a new universe, he added.

Elgin outlined various stages of humanity's transitions & evolution, as we are at a pivotal time with increased difficulties from climate, the economy, and other factors. Humanity has matured from its childhood as hunter-gatherers, moving to its adolescence as a species on the edge of a planetary civilization, and is now ready to move past "parental institutions" that have held sway, he said. The unprecedented revolution in global communications are creating a kind of global brain that will support the awakening of our collective consciousness, and move into adulthood, as we tackle global challenges, he continued.
Lyme Disease Update

First hour guest, medical researcher Tom Grier shared an update on Lyme disease. A recent press release from the Mayo Clinic reported that multiple sclerosis (MS) often starts with an inflammation in the brain's outer layers. This correlates with what Grier had been proposing about Lyme disease, which he's noted bears certain similarities to MS. Prolonged antibiotic therapy is sometimes effective in treating Lyme disease, he added. For more, see this recap of Grier's show appearance from September.

  • Thank you so much for posting this!!!!

  • These parental institutions are not ignoring the problems they are will fully perpetuating them. Until the hierarchy is eradicated from the top then they will continue their financial terrorism and try to create world war 3, this might sound extreme but it's happening u just have to open your eyes!!

  • Idealistic or whatever, its a positive step to look at a brighter future. Good job elder Elgin.

  • Insightful provoking thoughts. Thank you for posting this on YouTube.

  • BTW, regardless of my less than kind opinion on the guest I'd like to thank you, damjerminator, for uploading these. Like so many others I too can't hear C2C on the radio for the time being so I do not take for granted this service you provide for the rest of us. Thanks.

  • hey thanx for the up .

  • I just ogt through the whole thing and it's worse than I thought. This guy Elgin is a collectivist dupe. His vision is a nightmare. Ayn Rand was on one extreme and he is in another. Without the ability of the individual to be allowed his own space then the 'community' becomes an authoritarian tyrant. E.g. look at what's the EU is doing today, trying to regulate everything in sight. Add some mindblowing technology and you have created hell. Forget the Kumbayah group hug. It's not real.

  • Thanks for posting! I'm on a U.S. military in Afghanistan and I obviously cannot listen to C2C on the radio.

  • When will these starry-eyed boomer assholes go away already? The global brain? We're all just going to come together and DO GREAT THINGS!!, right? No such thing as evil? The Arab Spring? Is already being taken over by the Islamists. Climate change? Look up Climategate. All we gotta do is talk it over on the internet, huh? Go hug a Blood or MS-13 and see how far it gets you ("Gringo maricon!"). Keep your global brain, asshole!
