In this episode, Dr. Tony Nader sits down with Dr. Iain McGilchrist, psychiatrist, neuroscientist, researcher and author, to discuss our various human worldviews, perception and decision making. How can individuals and society be deeply influenced by the primacy of one or the other of the two brain hemispheres? Dr. Nader and Dr. McGilchrist discuss the importance of each and the dangers of excessively relying on only one, especially the left half of the brain. In order to understand ourselves and the world, we need science and intuition, reason and imagination. The right side of the brain plays an important yet often neglected part in our ability to have a holistic, balanced perspective.
Dr. McGilchrist’s most recent publication is the two-volume work ‘The Matter With Things’. A sustained critique of reductive materialism which explores the questions ‘Who are we? What is the world? What is the nature of time and space? And what is consciousness?’ He is a former Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, a Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists and of the Royal Society of Arts, as well as a former research Fellow in neuroimaging at Johns Hopkins University Medical School in Baltimore. He has published original research and articles in many papers and journals, including the British Journal of Psychiatry, The Wall Street Journal, The Sunday Telegraph and The Sunday Times.

Two wise men. Ian comes from a slightly different angle, which was really interesting. But such a heart warming discussion. I follow Tony Nader and his broadcasts, which are excellent. But I will look in on some Ian’s lectures. He is so sharp, warm and genuine too.

Resonance, reflection, relationship -> reality: this conversation beautifully confirms this. Such a wonderful dialogue - wish the current "leaders" of the world would listen to this. Cooperation of the diverse is the basis of Nature's success - the give and take to maintain the whole. Love this series.

I love the plane example - it’s worth gold to not forget how we get lost in details and turn our back to critical importance awareness it’s like we intentionally put “blinders” - goodness - I do that at times - without a doubt - thank you both for this conversation

I ❤ Iain finding the words and science for this insight. A culture and the other culture. Conquer and divide in cult and diffi-cult in the eyes of the left brain. A balanced left and right brain would probably be briain 😅.

The whole meaning of Enlightenment is that it is beyond point of view - otherwise there would be no fundamental difference between an Enlightened being and an ordinary person. To be Enlightened is to BE the noumenon not a phenomenal self.

Maybe it is called left, because it has left the master. Following the will of the left brain as an employee in the past 20 years of working made me feel like leaving myself. Or maybe it was a spell, calling it left. Like good morning is 😢. Or maybe all former Atlantis inhibitants keep saying good mourning.

Another thing is kundalini bliss, is that something to do with right brain and dr Joe Dispenza healing energy frequencies does that have to do with the right brain ... Unfolding 😊 the universe or becoming aware of the verse (pattern) of the Union.

...the absolute hiding, inhibiting in order to differentiate. This sounds like the hide and go seek interpretation of reality, the absolute endlessly hiding from itself, rediscovering, re-hiding, etc etc
