Dr. Andrew Newberg is one of the pioneers of neurotheology – the scientific study of what happens in the brain during prayer, meditation, and mystical experience. In this conversation, we dig into what the brain is doing during spiritual practice – and how he studies it, how different practices produce both shared and distinctive neural patterns, and why sexuality and religious experience may be more closely linked than they seem. We also explore the evolutionary question: is religion an adaptation, a by-product, or something in between? A grounded conversation at the intersection of neuroscience, spirituality, and human nature.

Beschreibung

Consciousness is everything you’ve ever known, and the only thing you’ll ever know. It is highly unlikely that anyone else will be able to experience exactly what you experience; likewise, you will probably never be able to sample someone else’s mind directly.
Because the topic of consciousness is so personal and so complex, and because scientists have confined means to study it, the field has attracted thinkers from many spheres, beyond neuroscience: philosophers, theologians, psychologists, physicists, evolutionary theorists, computer scientists, and others. This channel’s mission is to critically appreciate this wealth of ideas.
