Alex is a neuroscientist and physicist whose work dances at the edge of science and spirit. He’s the director of the Pari Center where he explores the frontiers of consciousness, cognition, and life itself. Alex has also had his own brush with the infinite — a near-death experience that further shattered his assumptions about mind, matter, and reality

In this one, we navigate the mysterious terrain where neuroscience and physics meet metaphysics. We explore what his NDE revealed about the nature of consciousness, why materialism may be reaching its limits, and how physics might point toward a universe that is alive, aware, and participatory. Along the way, we dive into ancient and modern models of mind, from platonism to panpsychism.

If you’ve ever felt that consciousness is more than neurons firing — that awareness is woven into the very fabric of reality — this one’s for you.
