Just how accurate is the reality we experience through our sense perceptions? That's a big question - and we're about to explain why it is important.

We tend to be convinced that that world we experience through our senses is the world as it really is. We also believe we are billions of separate beings - which fosters a sense of tribalism and a distrust of "the other". But, professor Donald Hoffman says science shows that the chance that we see reality as it actually is - is zero. It may look like there are cars, houses and separate people - but that is how we experience reality when it is filtered through the human mind. Space & time are not fundamentally real - they are like a VR headset we have put on. Furthermore, he says cutting edge mathematics and science show that there are not billions of separate beings, but there is one infinite Being - and we are all avatars of that.

Professor Donald Hoffman is a renowned cognitive scientist whose work is truly groundbreaking. This conversation will have you question your view of the world, yourself and what's really important in life. The implications are profound. Not least because if we are all avatars of one Being - that means that if I hurt you, I am simultaneously hurting myself.
