Consciousness isn't a Mystery—Matter is.

By Galen Strawson

It is precisely science that makes the key point shine most brightly: the point that there is a fundamental respect in which ultimate intrinsic nature of the stuff of the universe is unknown to us — except insofar as it is consciousness.

Can the Future Affect Our Decisions in the Present?

By Shawn Radcliffe

In physics, time exists but it has no preferred direction.

Science Pointing to Nonduality

By Mark Gober

Most of my life was spent as a materialist. I regarded physical matter as the basis of reality. From matter emerged biological organisms such as humans, which developed brains, and out of the brain emerged consciousness.

The True Mirror – A Reflection of our True Nature

By Science and Nonduality

What’s wrong with mirrors? Most people know that they are backwards, reversing left and right sides,…

Do We Actually Experience the Flow of Time?

By Bernardo Kastrup

Time is a contentious topic in physics. Some physicists, such as Julian Barbour, argue that it doesn’t even exist. Others, such as Carlo Rovelli, hold that it arises as a secondary effect of deeper quantum processes.

Black Holes and the Arrow of Time

By Shawn Radcliffe

In our everyday life, time flows in one direction—forward. When you put a frozen pizza in the hot oven, the pizza heats up. When you hit a baseball, it flies over the wall (if you’re having a good day at bat). When you knock a coffee mug off a table...

The Holographic Principle

By Donald D. Hoffman

The most famous case study in science, prior to Freud, was published in 1728 in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society by the English surgeon William Cheselden, who attended Newton in his final illness.

Math Has its Own Brain Region

By Josh Hrala

How did great mathematicians like Stephen Hawking and Albert Einstein make the leap from understanding basic mathematical concepts to answering fundamental questions about the Universe?

The Holographic Future: From Science Fiction to Reality

By David Storoy

Since childhood I have been fascinated by holograms. The reason was the science fiction movie Star Wars and in 1984 I watched it for the first time.

Science and the Existence of Ether

By David Storoy

The existence of an ether – an all-pervading medium composed of a subtler kind of matter – has been taught by mystic philosophers throughout the ages.

Truth Will Set You Free: Time Does Not Exist

By Hans Meijer

When we ask ourselves why we think time exists, most of us would say: because we see everything changing, always.

Events In a Far Galaxy Modify Your DNA

Billions of years ago, an iron nucleus forged in another galaxy was flung into space at close to the…

The Flow of Time in a Timeless Universe

By Shawn Radcliffe

If you were to stand outside the universe—outside both space and time—and look at your life, you would see your birth, your death and every moment in between laid out as distinct points.

The Historic Einstein-Tagore Meeting: Is Truth Independent of us?

By Shawn Radcliffe

It was on the edge of Berlin on July 14, 1930, that science and spirituality came together in one of the most intellectually stimulating conversations in history
