This week I would like to highlight the The Chopra Foundation and Human Longevity, Inc. (HLI) ?partnership aimed at enhancing longevity and holistic well-being. This collaboration merges the Chopra Foundation's expertise in integrative health and mind-body practices with HLI's cutting-edge precision medicine platform. Founded by Deepak Chopra, MD, the Chopra Foundation is renowned for its focus on spiritual knowledge and global health, while HLI, co-founded by J. Craig Venter, PhD, specializes in precision medicine and comprehensive health data analysis.
Dr. Deepak Chopra expressed excitement about combining their holistic approach with HLI's medical technologies to help individuals achieve peak living and extend their longevity. Additionally, the partnership plans to host a series of educational events, including webinars, panel discussions, and longevity retreats, both remotely and in person. These events will be exclusive to members and foster a community of like-minded individuals dedicated to enhancing their healthspan. This collaboration is a revolutionary step towards integrating advanced medical technologies and holistic well-being practices, reinforcing our commitment to global health and integrative solutions.
With peace and gratitude,

The New Atheism and the Delusions of Science
By Deepak Chopra, MD, FACP, FRCP
Church attendance has been steadily falling in the U.S. and other developed countries for decades, causing a rise in people who tell pollsters that they are unaffiliated with any organized faith. According to the Pew Research Center, about one in three adults identify as unaffiliated.
This should be good news for confirmed atheists, and Pew has found that the number of atheists doubled in the U.S. between 2011 and 2021. However, this represents an increase from 2% to 4% of the adult population, still a statistical sliver.
So, with church attendance falling and the unaffiliated swelling in numbers, why has this benefitted atheism so little? The so-called New Atheism boasts some leading figures like Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, and the late Daniel Dennett, who are not only intellectuals but loud proselytizers. Their failure to convince people of their cause says a great deal about our current unease regarding God, religion, and spirituality.

If You Want to Change the World
Aurora Carlson
In how many ways do you want to change the world? My guess is— many. There is enough to do for all of us who dream of a better world. But the question is- do we know how to go about it? How does one actually change the world? Does one need an iron will, great wealth, influential positions, huge crowds to back one up?
I would suggest that we don’t need any of that. What we need is to understand the body-mind-consciousness continuum, and the easiest way to do that is to start with what we know best, our own body and the physical world around us.

Leaders in the Field: Dr. Seymour Reichlin
Ryan Castle
Dr. Seymour Reichlin, MD, PhD, affectionately known as Si, is not just a pioneer but a living legend in the field of neuroendocrinology. With a career spanning over seven decades, Dr. Reichlin has delved deeply into the mysteries of hormones and human reproduction, influencing both the academic sphere and clinical practice. “My interest in neuroendocrinology arose from two elements,” he explains, “a general and intense curiosity in natural history and a specific concern with the mechanism by which stress causes illness.” These twin passions propelled him from his early days as a student to his distinguished roles at universities such as Rochester, Connecticut, Tufts, and Arizona.

ADEPTS 16: ALIGNMENTS
By William C Bushell
The new, emerging bioelectricity revolution in the human life and health sciences, to which we have been referring (see, especially, the last two installments, above), has been, in turn, leading to more of an “alignment” between Western and Eastern scientific traditions, especially concerning innate, endogenous forms of human energies, energies which have until recently largely escaped mainstream Western science and culture generally (see previous installments and, eg, Tonov et al 2020; Gong et al 2019; Bushell et al 2009; Bushell et al, in progress). In addition, as a medical/biophysical anthropologist, my knowledgebase includes other nonWestern traditions of energy knowledge/science, including Middle Eastern and African, among others, to which these generalizations also apply (see above, and eg, Katz 1984; Hall et al 2001; Bushell et al, in progress).

4 个月Introduction to Quantum Observational Individual Reality (QOIR) Theory https://a.co/d/0dZgtjV7 I wrote a book about ethics in consciousness. Chapter 5 specifically talks about artificial intelligence and it's importance not only to Future technologies but for helping us understand how our own minds work.
