In this episode, Eric and Michelle talk about consciousness, AI, and the ideas of Alan Watts, using an AI-generated clip called “Why Conscious People Can’t Enjoy Simple Pleasures” as a jumping-off point. Their conversation explores what it means to hear classic spiritual teachings through modern technology, and whether AI can still spark real insight and reflection in today’s fast-paced world.

Consciousness, AI and Alan Watts

The Age of Aquarius. The Dawn of a New Era. The “Shift”…. Whatever you want to call it, we are living in a time full of both promise and challenge. Join author, Eric Rankin and Community Connector, Michelle Anderson as they delve into any number of topics: From spirituality to energy medicine to dolphin intelligence to ancient aliens, no subject is too far outside of the box to discuss. In 2010, Eric’s bestselling novel “The Aquarians” became Amazon’s 2nd highest rated science fiction title, and he has been a guest on many TV and radio programs discussing humanity’s movement into the dawning Aquarian Age. For centuries, this “New Age” has been regarded as a time when the world will wake up to what mystics and shamans call the “Next Level” of consciousness. Eric’s family began visiting Laguna in the early 1960s, and he actually lived in one of the Treasure Islands trailers where the Montage now stands. He vividly remembers having long talks with Eiler Larson, Laguna’s official greeter, and continues to enjoy strolling Laguna’s beautiful shoreline as often as possible. Michelle has been facilitating gatherings in Laguna for those seeking Spiritual Connection and Conscious Collaboration for over 10 years. She creates experiences for people to connect with the dolphins and whales, leads groups of people on journeys to sacred places and holds space for people to connect with their true eternal essence. She is an avid supporter of Indigenous communities and regularly supports events that bring people back to nature and peace with each other and the earth. As a Sacred Activist, she is passionate about sharing information that brings humanity into greater awareness about important issues taking place locally and globally.
