Richard Tarnas & Matthew D. Segall - Journeying Within a Cosmic Journey

Maybe we’re not lost in the cosmos after all. Years ago the novelist Walker Percy wrote a book called LOST IN THE COSMOS, in which he showed how, overly shaped by a rigidly scientistic approach to life, we humans lack any rich connection with the universe of which we are a part, and, by implication, with ourselves and our neighbors. We know a lot about the periodic table and the laws of thermodynamics, but not a lot about how to live and love, creating societies of creativity and compassion. Richard Tarnas, known for his THE PASSION OF THE WESTERN MIND and COSMOS AND PSYCHE, presents a needed alternative. He invites us to imagine the universe as an unfolding journey, filled with multiple dimensions, both physical and archetypal; and to recognize our own embeddedness in this beautiful and dynamic whole. We are journeying within a cosmic journey. In conversation with Matthew Segall and Jay McDaniel, Tarnas shows how Whitehead influenced his thinking. He invites us to consider how the movements of the planets, no less than the movements of our hearts, can help us find our way in a vast and creative universe. We can be found, not lost, in the cosmos.

This talk was extraordinary- yes , maybe one day we realise we are the cosmos - and we are space cadets as the stars, moon, planets 🪐 intimations of divine scripture which arranges and sustains us . There was this rabí that said “ IT TAKES A UNIVERSE TO MAKE BREAD” loved Richard explain! Thank you! Why would the master make a universe and not give us rod and staff?

Synchronicity (or synkairosity) as teleology. The wisdom of the Cosmos speaking, signing, through the archetypal language of the psyche. Awesome!

What an absolutely abSORBING conversation. I totally got it. Was thrilled to hear such potent dialogue, thank you all. I never had the chance to go to University as monies did not permit but Life lead me to Astrology on this, my 2nd Saturn Return at 60 and I feel I am giving birth to new life in myself again! I may not have the Esalen Training but I love to do artwork, only a hobby but it gives me a sense I am contributing to things at last. I am suffering years of bad habits but have woken up in 2018 to being far kinder to myself. I had Uranus and Pluto 10 degrees apart when I was born in Year of the Metal Ox back in 1961. I think my age group have either left the planet or learned to want to rebirth themselves. So glad I decided on the latter after listening to this! May be I am not too old or broken to learn for a degree? Hmm.....ADD might be an issue. But thanks for letting me comment. It means a lot to share experience.

Mr. McDaniel's description of God's Lure leads me to the quotation, "The Stars Impel; they do not Compel."
