To have stumbled on these three brilliantly drawn Dickensian characters here on RU-vid who, far from being stuck in the past, generously share their piercing insight on the current moment, and indeed adding some hope, is a joyful wonder in itself.

Iain is a genius, we are only starting to come to terms with what he has brought together for us in The Matter With Things. I hope we are wise enough to pay attention

"The two hemispheres of my mind were in the sharpest contrast - on the one side, a many-islanded sea of myth and poetry, on the other a glib and shallow rationalism. Nearly everything I loved I believed to be imaginary. Nearly everything I believed to be real I thought grim and meaningless."

My poetry is jamming your machine- what a wonderful poem shared!

My thoughts exactly about this quote, scroll after for a similar Robert Anton Wilson quote. "Every system of thought is a squint at the truth and the more rigid the system, the worse the squint. " -Lin Yutang, The Importance of Living “Belief is the death of intelligence. As soon as one believes a doctrine of any sort, or assumes certitude, one stops thinking about that aspect of existence.” - Robert Anton Wilson

If you don’t mind I will share these wonderful quotes

Well, Slave, we all have our own particular BELIEFS, but ultimately, there exists objective truth, which is not subject to our misconceptions and misunderstandings. One who has transcended mundane relative truth is said to be an ENLIGHTENED soul. 😇

Although Malcom is incredibly interesting it would have been good to hear the others speak more and be allowed to finish their thoughts.

Love the Lin Yu Tang quote from The Importance of Living

At point 1 hour 9 mins, reminded of Rumi “take one step and then the path will unfold before you..”

Early Clarity? Rushing to a metaphor of duality. Much Love.

@paulconn7849 Год назад

Regarding an early example of recognizing the two sides, with great precision Emerson says; "The perception of this class of truths makes the attraction that draws men to science, but the end is lost sight of in attention to the means. In view of this half sight of science, we accept the sentence of Plato that 'poetry comes nearer the vital truth than history'.

@travellerontheway Год назад

At about 47 mins i feel very much that the talk of the ‘ blueprint’ if you like into which antennae grow sits very well with Rupert `sheldrake’s morphic resonance and underlines the opportunity for the new biology which earlier on you indicate is sorely needed….

Makes me wish I had read humanities instead of mathematics. Imagine being able to have conversations like this every day, and get paid for it! And CS Lewis? His poem reveals to me a tortured mind. Philosophy fills now bowls, and imagination ultimately serves only to guide reason.

@scorpionsting600 10 месяцев назад

Great conversation!! Listening, I am vaguely seeing coming to life in the Imagination a new College in Oxford, one dedicated to the Arts, Philosophy and Imagination. A bunch of you related philosophers and poets should find a happy billionaire somewhere to help you bring it into Being!

Truth and consequences. Is that a title for someone's next book? You can claim alternative facts but you cannot manufacture alternative consequences.

You blokes are actual Hobbits. My word, I lived when Hobbits lived, you blokes should have had credits in the films

The man with the beard talks far to much …difficult at times for Iain to actually get a word in ….let him speak

@johnking6519 Год назад

I'd go much further. He - presumably you're referring to the man with the pipe and the beard - pulls so much of the energy over into his own self-absorption that much of the potential of the meeting is drained away thereby.

@indiakhetri Год назад

@@johnking6519 yes agreed

@geoffreydawson5430 Год назад

Is it just me or did your guests miss the lecture Iain gave on contemporary in-your-face camera angles? But it is like this, so act. For it is a moral responsibility. Conditioning only occurs once you are aware of it (in a human paradigm).
