    Praying Backwards: Can Our Prayers Reach the Past? (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Could it be that what we pray or hold intention for now has the power to affect the experience of others many years ago, such as relieving their suffering or willing that they are held in light through what became recorded as a perilous situation? In this episode, we ponder whether prayers and focused intention can affect past events. We compare perspectives from Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and other traditions, discuss ideas from quantum entanglement, and even mention of p

    Summit of Giants: Trump, Xi and the Race to Control AI (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Rarely has a meeting between a US and Chinese President been more critical, as Presidents Trump and Xi prepare to meet for their summit in Washington next week. Their agenda includes trade tariffs, wars, space warfare, Taiwan, and more. Yet, it’s not clear whether the stark alarm being sounded by AI tech bosses will have the urgency of attention that it needs by the two countries whose role in regulating and slowing the pace of development is key.

As we quickly came to see when researching this episode, there’s much that calls for our prayers, including what’s happening today, what we might pray for retrospectively, and the implications for our own lives. In this special episode, we move quickly

    Anchor and Inter-Be: Staying Resilient Through the US Midterm Election Season (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    With the US midterm elections rapidly approaching, it’s likely to be a time for many when differences of view are ripe to inflame passions that may be very unpleasant and unsettling. In this episode, we look at how easily such strong emotions can take hold and sometimes get mischannelled. We’ll see how this relates to what the highly-esteemed Buddhist teacher Thich Nhat Hanh calls interbeing, and why this concept may be important to remember. We’ll remind ourselves what staying resilient looks l

    When Earth Speaks: Gaia Theory, Disasters, and Mother Nature's Wake-Up Call? (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Fires, floods, earthquakes and cyclones seem to be happening all the time now, and with ever-more intensity. This year has seen records being broken in many areas in terms of the frequency and intensity of such events. At least where human beings are concerned, these are records that aren’t to be wanted. Yet, can we pin all of what’s happening on global warming, and might Mother Nature herself be telling us that it’s time to take serious note of how we’re impacting her natural order? These are t
