About this listen
Interstellar senior researcher Anda, from the advanced Sorian civilization that exists on planet Amtora, in a very old solar system in the Milky Way galaxy, determines that humanity, an infant species that inhabits Earth, a jewel of a planet, is on a crash course with reality.
Anda finds that humans, who have yet to comprehend the dynamic interdependencies of Earth’s and their own bodies’ complex systems, have created the perfect storm for self-destruction.
Human behavior, Anda observed, driven largely by once normal and beneficial—now disastrous—brutal, short-term survival instincts, and antiquated and divisive religious belief systems—early human fabrications—is responsible for immeasurable and avoidable suffering and the unraveling of the web of life, and has taken humanity to the precipice of disaster.
Humanity’s limited comprehension of life is insufficient, writes Anda, for it to succeed as a species unless a rapid shift in thinking occurs.
Anda, who provides a road map for humanity to shift to stable and sustainable behavior, concludes that humans are running out of time, but urgent and needed changes are still possible.

Totalitarianism is not a coincidence and does not form in a vacuum. It arises from a collective psychosis that has followed a predictable script throughout history. In The Psychology of Totalitarianism, world-renowned Professor of Clinical Psychology Mattias Desmet deconstructs the societal conditions that allow this collective psychosis to take hold. By looking at our current situation and identifying the phenomenon of “mass formation”—a type of collective hypnosis—he clearly illustrates how close we are to surrendering to totalitarian regimes.

In one of the great ironies of the modern world, the science that was expected to solve life’s mysteries has done just the opposite. New discoveries have led to more unanswered questions, created deeper mysteries, and brought us to the brink of forbidden territory when it comes to explaining our origin and existence. New York Times best-selling author and 2018 Templeton Award nominee Gregg Braden crosses the traditional boundaries of science and spirituality to answer the timeless question at the core of our existence.

Charles Eisenstein explores the history and potential future of civilization, tracing the converging crises of our age to the illusion of the separate self. He argues that our disconnection from one another and the natural world has mislaid the foundations of science, religion, money, technology, economics, medicine, and education as we know them. It has fired our near-pathological pursuit of technological Utopias even as we push ourselves and our planet to the brink of collapse.

At an inn, these two profoundly thoughtful men explored questions that have occupied humankind throughout its history.

Story
For all the thousands of books that have been written about religion, few until this one have attempted to examine it scientifically: to ask why - and how - it has shaped so many lives so strongly. Is religion a product of blind evolutionary instinct or rational choice? Is it truly the best way to live a moral life? Ranging through biology, history, and psychology, Daniel C. Dennett charts religion’s evolution from “wild” folk belief to “domesticated” dogma.
