124 - 10 Dimensions of Knowing - Universalis #17

Listen Later

“How do you know what you know?” This provocative question sets the stage for an illuminating live conversation. Opening pathways to expanded ways of knowing is a profound liberation — especially in a time marked by increasing polarization. The exploration of ten distinct types of knowledge runs throughout this latest dialogue in the Universalis series.

In this episode, Aviv Shahar, Karen Heney, and Kyriaki Nikandrou explore the transformative shifts that catalyze the emergence of a "Universalis human." These shifts guide us beyond rigid fixations and controlling tendencies rooted in what we think we know, steering us instead toward authentic curiosity and inquiry into the unknown. Through a whole-person contemplative exploration, attuned to the natural flow of life, we discover how each of us can uniquely serve the universe.

Insights developed and explored include:

  • To dance with the universe and be an agency for life is the invitation at the heart of this enlightening conversation.
  • The 10 Dimensions of Knowledge introduce pathways where integrated approaches expand and elevate our capacity to know. By weaving together the experienced, the sensed, and the intuited, we liberate our multiple inner lives — and in doing so unlock and uplift what we can connect with and understand.
  • Through a potent inquiry integrating thinking and feeling, this brief explores new ways of knowing — not by replacing our senses, feelings or emotions, but by introducing frameworks of reference about how the universe works, ready to guide and accompany us on our journey inward.
  • With domain residency, access to knowledge becomes almost instant as the domain knows itself through you. You can then move with ease through different life domains (such as family or profession) and unlock broader networks of human possibility.
  • The emerging inquiry is: How fully can we be present in ourselves in order to access these pathways and liberate whole‑person, integrated knowing?

    • This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change. Information about upcoming special events can be found on the Events page. Also visit and subscribe to our YouTube channel.

    “And then the inquiry arose from an even more foundational place, which is, how do you integrate what you think you know, by way of reference that you have learned, and the feeling experience? How do you bring these two interior universes into a convergent coherence where thinking and feeling work together rather than fight each other?” (Aviv)

    “And what I suggested here is that there is a point where the attunement to a domain, and being centered in the first-principle nature of the domain, you become the embodiment of the essence of that domain. It's another way of describing it, a whole other level of mastery, process knowledge, sentiment knowledge, and domain knowledge, now you became the embodiment of that arena or that space, or that artistry or that discipline that you demonstrate.” (Aviv)
