The Nature of Reality – Physics and Consciousness
Humans have been wondering about the relationship between our shared outer world of physicalities, and our separate inner mental worlds of thoughts, feelings and consciousness.
Expect a fascinating journey as Dada Nabhaniilananda’s leads a conversation with two people who’ve delved deeply into the realm of physics and consciousness, as we grapple with the big question, What is Reality?
Richard Gauthier grew up in Virginia. He has advanced degrees in physics and psychology. He was a yogic monk and meditation teacher with Ananda Marga for ten years. He has taught physics at Santa Rosa Junior College for thirteen years. His research articles on physics and microvita are at richardgauthier.academia.edu.
Dr Patrick Bangert has a unique experience of the worlds of science and spirituality. I met Patrick 20 years ago when he was an 18 year old physics student at the University College of London. He learned Ananda Marga meditation and practiced with us for the next 5 years, after which he moved to Germany to study machine learning and mathematics. After completing his Phd he became active in Tibetan Buddhism, taking a Masters degree in Buddhist Philosophy and Psychology from the Central University of Tibetan Studies in Varanasi. When Patrick is not meditating and philosophizing, he is busy running the company he founded, http://www.algorithmica-technologies.com/
