[00:00:00] Alex Tsakiris: getting real about the big picture questions.

[00:00:07] Clip: We have comfort, science, medicine, technology, and the physical world.

We searched for something greater beyond our understanding.

We search for the origin of the universe. The greatest conceivable existant.

[00:00:23] Alex Tsakiris: And how the data from a variety of spiritually transformative experiences is staring us right in the face.

[00:00:31] Dr. Robert Davis: People who, undergo these things are transformed in, in so dramatic ways . . , how do you explain the fact that atheists now believe in, . Supreme beings after having these spiritual, transformative experiences or dramatically change . , their opinions on, on major aspects of philosophical and personal life, .

[00:00:51] Alex Tsakiris: That first clip is kind of interesting. It’s from the movie proximity when he comes down looking for Jesus or just somebody who can tell them what the real story is. And the second clip was from returning guests. The very excellent doctor, Robert Davis, who I believe is really tapping into the keys of the kingdom when it comes to understanding E T and that is understanding spiritually transformative experiences. This is kind of a wide ranging discussion. But I think it lands on a couple of really important points. I hope you enjoy it.

Welcome to Skeptiko, where we explore controversy of science and spirituality. I’m joined today by Dr. Robert Davis. Bob has been on the show a couple of times. He’s kind of a go-to guy for me because, well, a couple things. One, he has just this stellar academic background, all the credentials, n i h grants published, peer reviewed journals, all that stuff.

And then he goes off and he writes all these terrific books about all this off the wall stuff like spiritually transformative experiences, consciousness beyond the biological robot, meaningless universe, nonsense, UFOs, just because it comes up, Kundalini stuff. So he just recently, , sent me this. , which is a paper you just published in Edge Magazine, which is from the Journal of Scientific Exploration, which if you know this show, you know, it’s a terrific journal. It’s peer reviewed, top-notch people who are thinking outta the box but are really doing science. So Bob publishes this paper, spiritually Transformative Experience, triggers great stuff, piqued my interest, uh, particularly as it relates to tying just a, a lot of stuff together that is, um, Like for all of us, that is us listening to Skeptiko.

We get it. We get that. You can’t just talk about, um, consciousness without talking about near-death experience, autobody experience, psychedelic experience, maybe ET experience. And so what Bob is doing is kind of putting that all on the table again in a scientific way and saying, Hey, maybe we need to talk about all this stuff together in order to have a meaningful discussion.

But then Bob made the mistake. Of sending me a video he has recently stumbled across, which many of us have seen by this time, with Dr. , Gary Nolan at the Salt Connections, which if you’re unfamiliar, it’s kinda like Ted Talk kind of thing, like beefed up Ted Talk kind of thing where he says 100% aliens have already arrived.

So I am just laying the groundwork here and also for my friend Bob, to let him know that buddy, you, you’ve kind of, uh, laid, laid the foundation from me,
