Quantum Conversations: With Karen Curry Parker

This week, as we prepared to finish production on our interview with Dr. Amit Goswami and Dr. Valentina Onisor, we discovered that our online recording platform failed to save a portion of our inspiring conversation. I thought I’d pivot with grace in response to this frustrating twist in the plot outline.  Certainly, if I’ve learned anything these past few years, it’s that change always brings with it an opportunity for something different - often something better.  Resistance only leads to exhaustion.  Being in the flow - and grateful even when it seems difficult in the beginning - creates room for true innovation.  So, in honor of this collective experience of transformation, I thought this week we’d do something a little different. I have decided to present a special release of the latest episode from our companion microcast, Cosmic Revolution. As we begin the New Year, we are sharing with you our vision of the future and how we can unify our minds and build our new world, together. We have to work with

Is there life out there? This is the question astronomers and astrophysicists have been exploring for decades.  In late 2017, scientists at a Hawaiian observatory glimpsed an object soaring through our inner solar system, moving so quickly that it could only have come from another star. Dr. Avi Loeb, Harvard’s top astronomer, showed it was not an asteroid; it was moving too fast along a strange orbit, and left no trail of gas or debris in its wake. There was only one conceivable explanation: the object was a piece of advanced technology created by a distant alien civilization. In today’s conversation we’re exploring the question, is there life out there? with Dr. Loeb, who is the Frank B. Baird, Jr., Professor of Science at Harvard University, chair of Harvard’s Department of Astronomy, founding director of Harvard’s Black Hole Initiative, and director of the Institute for Theory and Computation (ITC) within the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. In Dr. Loeb’s new book, Extraterrestrial, the First

There are an estimated 18.1 million new cancer cases globally, and cancer remains the second-leading cause of death in the United States, where more than 1.7 million people are diagnosed with cancer every year. What is cancer? According to current medical practices, cancer begins when cells acquire the ability to grow uncontrollably and ultimately invade and damage the body’s normal tissues. Cancer development happens in multiple stages, from precancerous changes to malignant tumors.  Cancer can develop in a variety of different ways, due to a variety of different factors. Some we inherit, and others we are exposed to throughout our lives. It can be categorized into hundreds of different diseases based on the cells in which it arises. The current medical model basically asserts that some force - a toxin in the environment, genetic predisposition or random mutation - cause the body’s cells to go haywire. Yet, only 5-10% of cancer is caused by genetics.  Scientists argue that the number of cancer deaths due to

We are taught that an education is a vital component of success.  We define education as going to school.  Whether through public schooling or the more expensive version of the same concept, private schooling, children are shepherded through a system that makes learning a 12 year long process of mastering how to follow the rules and perform for rewards. On today’s Quantum Revolution episode, we’re talking to Naomi Fisher, a clinical psychologist, about her book, Changing Our Minds: How Children Can Take Control of Their Own Learning (https://www.amazon.com/Changing-Our-Minds-children-learning/dp/1472145518/)  According to Fisher, children today have easy access to an enormous amount of information, from all around the world. The news is not hidden from them and much of the news is not reassuring. In addition, most of them spend their days in an environment which makes very specific competitive requirements of them, and over which they have almost no power. When they refuse to cooperate with this, they are sa

The frustrating part of science is that it takes time.  It takes time to validate an experimental process, duplicate the process enough times to verify that the results are relatively predictable, and to calculate and demonstrate the statistical probabilities. When it comes to doing research about health and wellness, it’s hard to wait out the time for scientific validation for compassionate reasons.  The Hippocratic oath starts with the promise to “first do no harm." But the science behind healthcare can sometimes create a dilemma.  In today’s Quantum Revolution episode, we’re going to be talking with Dr. Peta Stapleton who has been building a body of scientific evidence behind the Emotional Freedom Techniques, EFT.  Some of you may know it as “tapping."  While the practice of EFT tapping has not been around as long as acupuncture, one of the main components of EFT is the gentle tapping on those same energy lines, or meridians, used in acupuncture and acupressure. When combined with some current psychotherap

We are living in a paradox.  We are the manifestation of consciousness - pieces of the cosmos - encased within bodies, ruled by a mind that creates the illusion that we are separate from the cosmos - individual events that will never be repeated again in the history of all that is.  It’s easy for us to think we are a dominion unto ourselves.  And yet, this paradox invites us to explore that if we are  holographic pieces of the cosmos, then the rules of the cosmos must apply to the unique and personal manifestation of the story that is our unique life - a theme we’re exploring with many Quantum Revolutionaries this season. Today we are speaking with Dr. Ervin Laszlo, a philosopher and systems scientist who has published more than 101 books and over 400 articles and research papers. The subject of the one-hour PBS special, Life of a Modern-Day Genius, Dr. Laszlo is also the founder and president of the international think tank The Club of Budapest and of the prestigious Laszlo Institute of New Paradigm Researc

Even before everything was disrupted by COVID-19 and divisive political tensions, millions of Americans were already questioning capitalism’s “values.” We were already challenging the idea that your job defines you. We already knew something was wrong. Come join us with Karen and Frank as they discuss what has led us to where we are today... and how we can continue to grow and thrive into the future. In Frank's new book, Fall in Love, Have Children, Stay Put, Save the Planet, Be Happy, Frank offers a passionate political, social, and lifestyle “blueprint” for changes millions of us know are needed to rebalance our work lives with thriving relationships.  Frank’s new book builds a well-researched and entertaining bridge to living happier lives and to a better future. It shows us that based on a better understanding of our evolutionary selves, we can thrive in family life and in our work life, too. But to do both joyfully—and at the same time—depends on rediscovering the priority of relationships, connections,

In an orderly Universe, everything unfolds in a systematic and natural way. In our human story, we live in an orderly Universe, but we have the freedom to choose to be connected to this order or not.   In this very special Quantum Conversation I chat with Professor Ervin Laszlo. Professor Laszlo’s biography is long and inspires deep respect. He received the Sorbonne’s highest the degree, a Doctorate in Letter and Human Sciences. He’s lectured and taught at various US Universities, including Yale, Princeton, Northwestern, the University of Houston and the State University of New York. He’s run global projects at the United Nations Institute for Training and Research and at the request of the Secretary General.   Laszlo's research led him to the discovery of the Akashic Field, which is the subject of his new book, The Immutable Laws of the Akashic Field: Universal Truths for a Better Life and a Better World.   The author of more than 100 books, Professor Laszlo shares with us the dire need for humanity to retur

What does it mean to live a spark-filled life? It means waking up to a morning of possibility and potential that you intentionally plug into. I means moving past your past and learning to fully be in the present moment to create the kind of future you want, full of joy, abundance and magical moments. This is an excerpt from Stephanie James book, The Spark. It sounds so simple - just let go of the past and be present. But the reality of this simple solution isn’t always easy in the beginning. To make the transformation and to embody the choice to be present means that we have to undo our past programming and rewire our brains. In the traditional personal and spiritual growth community, there is a lot of talk about how simple it is to transform and create a magical life. We don’t often look at the work involved in rewiring the brain and undoing past programming. Transformation can be painful and difficult, but that doesn’t mean we should back pedal from it and avoid the pain. Pain is an essential part of healin

What if the Heart holds the key to helping us access a deeper state of alignment, peace and clarity? HeatherAsh Amara believes it does. In her new book, the Warrrior Heart Practice, HeatherAsh lays out a revolutionary system based on the four chambered structure of the human heart. Walking through each of the four chambers―Feeling, Story, Truth, and Intent―readers learn to take stock of their current emotional and mental state and reframe their situation in a new healing light.

Despite checking off the boxes of worldly accomplishments, most high-achieving women are secretly dissatisfied. They feel stuck in lives that look perfect on the outside, yet on the inside, they’re unfulfilled, plagued by the nagging feeling that there’s got to be more.  They feel guilty and ungrateful for feeling trapped in lives that are so good. They disown their pain, or numb it with excessive work, eating, drinking, shopping, social media, or exercising. They search for solutions in books, meditation, yoga, therapy, medication, and workshops, but something is still missing. In her new book, Patriarchy Stress Disorder, Dr. Valerie Rein, talks about what women really need to do to change the metrics of feminine success and how to heal from generations of being discounted and being told to sit down and be quiet - or worse… Join me in for this conversation.

We are at a crossroads in the evolution of humanity.  We are facing a vital choice.  Do we evolve or do we devolve? We have the power to influence the direction in which we steer the future of humanity.  But if we become disconnected to Source - nature, our hearts and the heart of who we are as human beings, we lose our rudder in a chaotic, disrupted world. Our connection to Source offers a wellspring of natural guidance, a kind of cosmic GPS that may prove to be humanity’s salvation, for it shows that we don’t have to be devout followers of spiritual and religious doctrines to reconnect with the universe. Ervin Lazslo, in his new book, Reconnecting to the Source, The New Science of Spiritual Experience, How It Can Change You, and How It Can Transform the World, shares with us a unique, never before available instruction manual for people who want to know how they can consciously align with the forces and “attractors” that governs the universe, and bring us, living, conscious people who can mindfully steer th

The marriage of science and ancient wisdom not only empowers us to find new meanings and create new realities, it empowers us to move beyond the limitations of strict materialistic thinking and opens us up to finding new and fundamentally creative solutions to the challenges facing humanity at this time. We are in a cycle of tremendous change and disruption that promises to completely change the way in which we create and what we create in the world. For many of us, it feels like we’re lost and confused. Our minds, bodies and spirits are longing for something…but we don’t always know what that “something” is and where to find it. In their new book, Quantum Spirituality, Dr. Amit Goswami and Dr. Valentina Onisor, propose that the thing we are longing - the key to our inner happiness - is wholeness. And that for us to achieve wholeness we have to look to both ancient mysticism and modern science. This precise connection between ancient wisdom and the knowledge of science can catapult us light years beyond conve

Over the past few decades, science is undergoing a major paradigm shift from a materialistic way of seeing the world to a Quantum world view. Material perspective, rooted in Material Consciousness, sometimes referred to as Newtonian Consciousness is rooted in concepts such as: The idea of Finite amounts and solution Fixed laws with probable, possible and predictable results Formulas Reasoning Logic Nature and Natural Law A drive for “certainty” In material consciousness we are trapped in assessing the world from a material point of view which we tend to quantify using money, predictability and material worth as the gold standard of value. With the emergence of Quantum Physics in the 1920’s, we saw the manifestation through scientific understanding of a new consciousness, sometimes called Quantum Consciousness. Quantum Consciousness brought us: The “New Thought” movement Thought leaders such as Ernest Holmes, Edgar Cayce, Madame Blavatsky, Rudolph Steiner, Maria Montessori We saw the emergence of the idea, “

Every creation begins as a thought, from a symphony to a marriage to an ice cream cone to a rocket launch. When we have an intention, a complex chain of events begins in our brains. Thoughts travel as electrical impulses along neural pathways. When neurons fire together they wire together, creating electromagnetic fields. These fields are invisible energy, yet they influence the molecules of matter around us the way a magnet organizes iron filings. In Dawson Church’s new book, Mind to Matter, we learn how our minds create matter. Different intentions produce different fields and different material creations. The thoughts and energy fields we cultivate in our minds condition the atoms and molecules around us. We can now trace the science behind each link in chain from thought to thing, showing the surprising ways in which our intentions create the material world. Neuroscientists have measured a specific brain wave formula that is linked to manifestation. This "flow state" can be learned and applied by anyone.

We live in a tremendously interesting time. A time when the line between science and spirituality are blurring and we are cultivating the “proof” that spiritual practices that have been in place since the beginning of time are actually valid and powerful ways to harness a greater sense of meaning, access to greater health and even expanding states of awareness and creativity. The effects of spiritual practices are now being investigated scientifically as never before, and many studies have shown that religious and spiritual practices generally make people happier and healthier. In this Quantum Conversation, Rupert Sheldrake, the botanist who has, over the span of his career, made evolutionary biologists and other scientist very nervous by suggesting that evolution and life itself may be more conscious and deliberate than we previously thought. In his new book, Science and Spiritual Practices: Transformative Experiences and Their Effects on Our Bodies, Brains, and Health, Sheldrake shows how science helps vali

According to noted scientist and bestselling author of The Conscious Universe, Dean Radin, magic is a natural aspect of reality, and each of us can tap into this power with diligent practice. But wait, aren't things like ESP and telepathy just wishful thinking and flights of the imagination? Not according to the author, who worked on the US government's top secret psychic espionage program known as Stargate. Radin has spent the last forty years conducting controlled experiments that demonstrate that thoughts are things, that we can sense others' emotions and intentions from a distance, that intuition is more powerful than we thought, and that we can tap into the power of intention (think The Secret, only on a more realistic and scientific level). These dormant powers can help us to lead more interesting and fulfilling lives. The history of science is rooted in the traditions of magic. Science emerged as a way of understanding the mystery of magic. But science, as a stand alone body of knowledge is incomplete
