Discovering Authenticity — The Immense Power to Be Yourself with Adam Bulbulia Ep# 18
*. Introduction
Welcome friends. Today, the topic of our conversation is the nuanced subject of authenticity, which usually refers to being your own self, the word Authenticity comes from the Greek word Authentikos, which refers to principle, original, and genuine. For most of us, authenticity is a long nuanced journey of self discovery. So it gives me great pleasure today to introduce to you a dear friend of mine, Adam Bulbulia, who has written a book on this subject titled, Authenticity, the Immense Power to Be Yourself, which is now also available on Amazon. *. Guest Biography: Adam Bulbulia is an author, Board Certified Behavioral Analyst, and experienced Process Coach who has dedicated years to studying human behavior, empathy, and unconditional love. He has worked extensively with individuals, business owners, and families for over 20 years. He is a seasoned expert in the field of autism and has worked with hundreds of developmentally disabled youth and adults. Authenticity: The Immense Power To Be Yourself is his third published book.

Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Authenticity-Immense-Power-Be-Yourself/dp/B0CHLKQVPZ/ One of the things that I like about this book is how Adam approaches authenticity through multiple pathways and exploring its connections with things like creativity, nature, relationships, the workplace, livelihood, leadership, death, and even the miraculous. This book has several exercises and games for the reader, which will allow them to get in touch with their own authenticity. And there are several powerful stories that allows one to relate with what does it feel like to live an authentic life. So I hope that you'll get a hold of this book and if you do read this book then please leave us a review and let us know in the comments what you felt.

Artificial Intelligence, Creativity and the Unknown — A No Hype Panel Discussion Ep#15
This is a recent panel discussion that potential paradigms organized with Consciousness Hacking San Diego. It's no surprise to you that artificial intelligence is a big theme right now in the collective. We are all concerned and perhaps also excited about the potentials of artificial intelligence. so there are so many discussions happening on YouTube and on the television, so why t his panel discussion and why watch it. So my simple answer would be that we didn't have any billion dollar ceo. and politicians and our investors, , in this panel. So the conversation was very grounded and conscentious, , and also very creative. So if you're still watching this, let me quickly tell you about the panel .
Panelist
* Dr. Robert Twomey, Artist/Engineer, Arthur C Clarke Center, UCSD An artist and engineer who has been working , for more than a decade on the intersection of machine. And, , human perception as to how new technologies, including AI and beyond ai, when they come and cohabitate with humans, , what are the implications of that? What are the unknowns? , And so , when I heard Robert, , I was really blown away by his insights that didn't seem to be present in the mainstream. * Ted Kyi, Engineer, Organizer: Machine Learning San Diego Meetup Ted, Kyi. Ted, Is a senior vice president of a technology company and he also leads an incredible , community group known as, , San Diego Machine Learning. And, , there is no fluff about him. He really grounds the conversation with his background in this tech. So that's a panel.
Organizers
I'm one of the people who helped organize this panel together as Potential Paradigms along with my friend Zach Prager, who is a technologist and, , leads, the San Diego Consciousness Hacking Group. that. Explores, , the use of technology for human well-being. -
Questions
So some of the questions , , were, , can AI be used as a collaborator? What are the motivations behind AI and human collaboration? Is there [00:03:00] any influence of big money on ai? Of course not. , . Are we projecting our meaning and biases onto ai? Is the current AI based on technologies of plagiarism? What are the new paradigms that are going to emerge from these new technologies? Is there more value of human made art now than before , will AI eliminate jobs? what is the impact of AI on the new creator's economy ? Is there such a thing as AI literacy? Do we need regulation of ai, , and how do we summon, , the unknown both in art and also using this new medium of artificial intelligence? , why do new technologies spark a sense of terror in us? So this was a list of some of the questions. So I hope that you really, , enjoy this and learned something from this. At least that was my attempt, and I think that this was an enlightening conversation.

A Play of Words: Grammar, Glamour, Spells & Norse Mythology — Chaise Levy Ep#16
#etymology #words #spirituality #spelling #dictionary Description:
Hello, friends. Welcome. I hope that this message finds you all so today I'm excited to share with you. A new series of videos that I'm making called a Play of Words. And this comes from my longstanding passion about looking at the meaning of words, their history, and what their true origins are. And the reason for this is often we use words that we have inherited, we learned as children, and those that we absorb from our culture and the country we live in. So more often than not, we don't really know the real meaning of the words we even use. So wouldn't it actually be nice to know the intention and the real meaning of a word that we use? I hope that you would agree. So there are many ways to look at the true origins and meanings of Word. And in this particular series, I will be exploring with my guests who study languages or speak multiple languages or study music philosophy. Et cetera, to come together and look at, the deeper roots of language.
Guest Biography
Chaise Levy is a father, husband, teacher, and storyteller in the oral tradition. He is profoundly committed to the power of image, story, and magic as great gifts for the griefs of our time. Chaise's work with story centers reckoning with ancestral legacies of both blessing and harm, nourishing the imagination as a partner for liberation, and feeding this wild-wonderful earth with eloquence. chaiselevy.com northernspirithouse.substack.com Longer Description: One way to look at the history or [00:01:00] origin of word is to look at their etymology at their history. And we might find that a word is actually connected to the ancient Greek language or to Latin or the ancient language of India called Sanskrit or Arabic for that matter. And not just that, but that these different. Historical pathways intermingle with each other and are connected. So as we look at them, we become aware of the true reasons and intents behind the creation of a word and how over time new intentions emerged, new cultural movements, propaganda and other things affect the meaning that we collectively associate with a word. So this alone is fascinating, but at the same time, there are other dimensions of language, for instance, The dimension of language mysticism or sound mysticism, what that means is that if you didn't know the language that I was speaking right now, words would just be sounds to your ears. But if you knew the language that I was speaking, then each word would create an image in your mind, [00:02:00] would trigger different thoughts and different images, and will thus create a magical reality for you. And it is no surprise that words like grammar and spelling are actually connected to words like spell, Which means to morph, to change your perception, so in fact, when we speak language, we are casting spells in a way. And when we hear languages, spells are being cast. So wouldn't it be nice that we became conscious of what was the reality that we were creating through the sounds that we're producing and through the sounds that we're hearing? Wouldn't this be very useful if you are hearing propaganda or lies that want to trigger anxiety or fear in you? So these are just some of the pathways, and I'm sure that there are many more, and I will love to hear from you. What are your comments and your thoughts on other pathways that we could explore in this series? These episodes are gonna be a little shorter, perhaps half an hour. , I look forward to being on this journey with you, and I hope that you will join me. Thank you.

Biofield Healing: Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Science — Dr. Shamini Jain Ep#14
Description
So the topic of our conversation today is the emerging paradigm of biofield science. So what is biofield science? The biofield science is also known as energy medicine or energy healing, and includes things like the impact of electromagnetic. currents such as the Earth's magnetic field or electric currents on our healing capacity But it also includes modalities such as reiki, healing touch, pranic healing, and many others. And most of these come from the ancient wisdom traditions of the East The biofield science perhaps would also include the placebo effect or the impact of our own intention and expectation on not just our healing, but the healing of those around us. So it is quite an empowering idea that we have tremendous healing potential to heal ourselves through the mind body connection, but also we have tremendous potential to heal our communities and those around us in such a needed. For the longest time, the biofield was considered woo woo and it had no place in the Western medical establishment. But now it seems like we're having a paradigm shift. These modalities are becoming available in hospitals and institutions in the form of integrative medicine across the Western hemisphere.
Guest Bio
I have the pleasure of having with me today, Dr. Shamini Jain, who is a pioneer in the field of biofield science. She's an Ivy League trained clinical psychologist and a researcher in the area of psycho neuro-immunology. More than that, I consider Shamani a real maverick in the field of biofield science because in her career, she made several bold moves to stay true to her passion, to exploring energy medicine, to discover for herself that it works and not just stop there, but bring it out into the world and facilitate a paradigm shift.

Kashmir Shaivism: The Hidden Geography of Consciousness Explained by Tantric—George Barselaar Ep#13
* Lakshman Joo Acadmey* :
www.lakshmanjooacademy.org/
** Bookstore:
https://www.universalshaivafellowship...
*Introduction*
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another episode of Potential Paradigms. Today is a deep episode and we are going to be looking at the spiritual and philosophical tradition of Kashmir. Shaivism often synonymous with tantra , and some even consider it the distillation of the various schools of philosophy of the Indian subcontinent. Over the last few decades, Kashmir Shaivism has become quite popular in the West and perhaps over the globe, but this was not always the case. The tradition of Kashmir Shaivism has been in hiding for the past few centuries because of the several invasions that happened in India. Because of this, it has been quite challenging for the scholars to weave together the intricate web of Kashmir Shaivism because several of the earlier manuscripts of this oral tradition became extinct. Fortunately for the world luminary philosopher Sage, by the name of Swami Lakshman Joo was around. Swami was a descendant in an unbroken chain of masters in the oral tradition of Kashmir Shaivism. . He took it upon himself to protect this tradition and freely distribute its knowledge across the world. Over the last 30 years with the revival of Kashmir Shaivism, there is probably not a single book that does not mention his name, so it's with great delight that introduce our guest today.
*Guest Biography*
George Barselaar, has been a long-term devotee of Swami Lakshman Joo and a practitioner of Kashmir Shaivism. He took a keen interest in yoga from an early age, which inspired him to learn Transcendental Meditation (TM). His association with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, who was a close friend of the Swami, eventually led George to the Valley of Kashmir, where he spent nine years before Swami Lakshmanjoo's passing in 1991. Since then, along with his close friends John and Denise Hughes, George has been deeply involved in publishing the teachings of Swami Lakshman Joo in the form of books, original transcripts and video presentations, which we will be talking about in this interview. Through his years with Swami Lakshman Joo George has gained a deep knowledge of Kashmir Shaivism, but at the same time there is an ordinariness about him, which made it a joy to spend some time with him. This episode is perhaps a valuable introduction to Tantra and Kashmir Shaivism. We discussed the history of this tradition and its many mystical aspects, including the secrets of breath awareness, the various Gods and Goddesses existing in the body, Kundalini Shakti, and the 118 worlds or realms which make up the known universe of Kashmir Shaivism, knowledge which has been handed down through the oral tradition of the lineage of masters. And last but not the least, we also look at the various means and methods (upayas) that a seeker can use to realize the truth of their own reality. So before you return/immerse yourself in . . . to this episode, I would like to request that you 'like this video' and subscribe to this channel. Also, let us know how you feel in the comments, or leave us a review at iTunes and Spotify.

Keith Thompson—A skeptic's guide to UFO's: History, Debunking, Disclosure, Myth, Spirituality & more #12
See timpoints below Description
Description
This episode is surely for the skeptics, it was quite a mind expanding episode for me. UFOs have become all their rage in town. Everybody seems to be talking about it. The government intelligence agencies and top researchers and scientists are now openly studying this phenomena at reputable institutions without risking their careers. Just last year alone, the Pentagon released over 400 reports of military personnel surrounding UFO encounters.
My own introduction to this paradigm was about two decades ago watching the Cult Classic Show the X-Files. If you watched this show, you know that one of the main themes of the show was that there is a reality to UFO phenomena and alien encounters and the powers to be are suppressing the true narrative . While looking at what's happening today, it seems like there was a lot of truth to that.
So recently, I had the privilege of speaking with Mr. Keith Thompson, who is a brilliant journalist, phenomenal storyteller and author. I came across his classic book Angels and Aliens, which he wrote in 1991, and I was blown away by the unprejudiced way in which he looked at UFO encounters and various phenomena. I think Keith has some phenomenal insights on this subject, and if you're curious about the history of UFO phenomena, how it's observed in different civilizations and cultures, who are the key people who are researching this phenomena today, and why is it that if not the whole truth, certain aspects of the truth were clearly suppressed, if yes, then this episode is for you!
And before we return to the conversation, I would like to request that you please like the video and share it with your friends.Subscribe to the channel as we're competing with the YouTube algorithms.
And if it's not too much to ask, please leave us a review on iTunes and Spotify where this episode is released a week before it's released on YouTube so you can catch it sooner. Thank you and enjoy!

Mihai Algiu- The Mount Everest (5 MEO-DMT) of psychedelics & Spiritual Awakening #11
Disclaimer
So before we begin, let me put in an important disclaimer, the conversation that follows is only for entertainment and educational purposes. This is not medical advice, neither is it a recommendation to use psychedelics. Psychedelics are illegal in most countries, and even possession can carry severe penalties. It also has physical and psychological risks. It can exacerbate emotional problems, and in rare cases, even fatalities have been known to.
Description
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another episode of Potential Paradigms where we have conversations on emerging paradigms and our now troubled civilization. Today, the topic of our conversation is a psychedelic medicine, or should I say an amphibious medicine known as 5 MEO DMT. I called it amphibious medicine because it's actually produced in the glands of the Bufo Toad also known as the Sonoran Desert toad. 5 MEO DMT, is a close relative of DMT and has been known as an entheogen in South America for a long time. And for those of us who do not know, an entheogen is a sacrament or a substance that can induce a spiritual state. DMT, as you might know, has been coined as the spirit molecule by Dr. Rick Straussman. It is considered an intense cousin of dmt. It is considered intense because it can quickly catapult one into an intense spiritual state of unity, consciousness, non-duality, or what I like to call as God consciousness. Because it is intense. sometimes it is referred to as the Everest of psychedelics. and just like only very few people climb Mount Everest, a certain type of personality is attracted to using this sacrament. Recently, a lot of DMT sharings have been in the media such as . By podcaster, Joe Rogan, motivational coach, Tony Robbins, and former athlete Mike Tyson.
I will put some of these sharings in the show notes below if you like to check them out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYvfx...
In my own case, I've had meditative experiences and as psycho. Someone who explores the inner dimensions. I'm always curious to hear from fellow explorers of what they have learned. Particularly when the use of engen is combined with the grounded spiritual practice and meditation, then I believe that it can be very rich and can really be a place where the map meets the territory. , Even if you were to never use an entheogen I believe such sharings can bring tremendous insights into our journeys as human beings in this dimension. So today my guest is my friend, me I lg, who is an associate therapist and intense spiritual seeker and a psycho. What follows are two friends having a candid conversation and exploration, And I hope that you will enjoy it. Let me know what you think in the comments below. And if you like this video, please like the video and subscribe to the channel. And if you're hearing this podcast on Spotify, iTunes, and elsewhere, please leave us a review. So thank you. And now let's turn to the conversation.

Dr. Frank Coppieters — Pandemic a Collective Vision Quest, Rise of the Indigenous, Trauma & Evolution #10
Today is a special episode with my friend, Dr. Frank Coppieters who is a Shaman, a teacher, an energy healer and intuitive counselor and the author of several books. We begin our conversation today with an overview of shamanism. And then we talk about the resurgence of indigenous and shamanic traditions happening all over the globe, and we place it in the context of history where where indigenous traditions were disrespected and disenfranchised of their lands and rights. During the conversation. We also stumbled on the insight that the pandemic perhaps is a collective cry for a cosmic purpose for our civilization and age. A big team that emerged this conversation was inter-generational trauma that has now surfaced all over the globe. And Frank shares his insights as to how to address it. Another important theme is the role of prophecy and the next steps in evolution of both our living planet and humanity. And in this context, we look at the work of two luminaries, including Pier de Chardin and Sri Aurobindu.

** Description **
In this episode, we continue our conversation from a previous episode where we looked at what defines technology and what are some of the hidden historical, cultural, and philosophical movements that have shaped our understanding of technology and how we build it. See, it's very important to understand these aspects because otherwise we keep building technologies that although are very powerful yet continue to harm our very well. If the last episode was about how to define technology in some of the darker, hidden aspects of technology. Then this episode is very much about the solutions. We look at new ways of how to develop technologies. We also look at ancient civilizations who develop technology with radically different intentions. And we also look at how to turn technology development into a creative process. And many other interesting topics.
