Suggestion for Show?

[TruthSeeker]

May I suggest a show where you cover the incredible work of Nikola Tesla and the potential of the Wardenclyffe Tower? He sadly never gets any recognition, even though he has contributed more to modern society than perhaps anyone ever.

It was just a suggestion to cover some categories of Tesla's research, particularly wireless electricity, which was actually found to be demonstrated by MIT:https://www.eetimes.com/document.asp?doc_id=1166378

It makes me wonder how different the world could be if Tesla was able to demonstrate this in 1901.

Maybe you could get Alex to interview him through Marisa?

If I may make another interview suggestion: Bill Tier. He is a researcher from Stanford University that has demonstrated the impact of intention on matter with over 50 published research papers to support his findings. His research as well has lead him to believe that there is more to consciousness than simply matter.

nice. tiller is a pretty amazing... I'm sure Tier is great. I'm more interested in the science/spirituality connection.

Sorry, that is Tiller. I would argue that he makes a decent case for a spiritual connection to consciousness. Buddhism teaches after all that our intentions have effects on the world around us, and his research indeed seems to be showing this. It also does beg the question: what exactly is intention? What does it mean to use it? It's a continuous circle of questions, but that's what learning should be.

what a great question! How many times have we heard this word kicked about and no one ever stops to ask this question

I'd love to get an interview with Bob Peterson. Amazing guy, has reviewed an average of 20 books a year for several years now on how to induce OOBE's and is currently writing his own.

His site: https://obeoutlook.blogspot.com/

I think the only reason why such a question is askable, is the relentless push to 'understand' the mind in materialistic terms. The idea that a purely physical object should have intentions simply doesn't make sense.

Roger Penrose. Some of the things he have to say is surely above my head:

He would be interesting, but I have never heard him stray into paranormal subjects - even though he is interested in consciousness - so it would be a long shot.

He is also pretty old by now.

I want to suggest Tom Montalk of montalk.net.

Tom have been making his site for some 20 years and I think its one of the oldest current sites about "alternative thought".
Tom is also an abductee and occasionally writes for an abductee journal.

 

[Alex]

sure... looks great. do you think you could reach out to him on my behalf and tell him I'm love to have him on skeptiko. if he's game just email me and I will follow up: alex at Skeptiko.com

 

[front243]

I have send him a message. Hopefully he will be back. I have seen many interesting interviews with him (on YouTube)

 

[Alex]

great! we shall see

 

[front243]

He said he had 6 other podcasts to interview with. He will contact you when they are sorted.

I must admit, I read a fair bit of Montalk's book, and I wasn't really impressed.

It really seemed to be a bland repetition of other people's ideas.

I'd take a look before you take this further.
