Spiral Inquiry

Thinking is what we do to make sense of the world. The hard limits on the frontiers of empirical science and mathematics provide an opportunity to reassess our obsession with material reality.

Show Notes

The topic today is "Thinking Beyond the Empirical Frontiers", an essay I originally presented at the Science and Non-Duality Conference in San Jose, CA in October 2017.   Thinking is what we do to make sense of the world. Yes, we have emotional and spiritual content in our experience, but we are cognitive sentient beings.  We seek to build a cognitive map of how the world works and what gives it meaning.  I believe the hard limits on the frontiers of empirical science and mathematics provide an opportunity to reassess our obsession with material reality.  The nature of those limits points to some fascinating ideas, many which have been explored by mystics and theologians across the centuries.
