✨ KNOW THYSELF PODCAST Series:

Inspired by ancient Hellenic Wisdom and the famous precept inscribed on Apollo's Temple in Delphi ~ "KNOW THYSELF" ~ this Podcast explores the fascinating intersections between science, the humanities, and self-inquiry, spirituality, meditation as direct approaches into the nature of consciousness.

How relevant is self-inquiry in science and academic education? In our radical era where a paradigm shift beyond materialism begins to shape, how can we re-imagine the future of knowledge and education? How can we re-integrate the journey of Knowing Ourselves ~ through contemplation, meditation and direct inquiry~ into our scientific and educational structures?

In each episode, we welcome an esteemed scholar, professor, or teacher who shares with us their own unique story of how they embarked upon the journey of knowing themselves; the transformations this journey entailed for their lives and academic pursuits, as well as how their approach to their professional field has shifted as a result.
