Listen "8' - The Biology of Transcendence"
Episode Synopsis
Joseph Chilton Pearce's The Biology of Transcendence explores the interplay of biology, culture, and spirituality in shaping human experience. The book argues that our brains have evolved beyond simple survival mechanisms, capable of transcendence through the development of the prefrontal cortex. Pearce examines the fourfold brain structure, tracing its evolution and its role in consciousness. He further proposes that societal enculturation often obstructs this innate human potential for spiritual transcendence, advocating for a return to a more natural, nurturing environment. Finally, the book investigates the concept of fields of potential, suggesting that our minds are not limited to the physical world.
