…things, his theory of morphic resonance has strong explanatory power for many of the clinically derived observations taught by Steve and Pauline Richards, the founders of IPSA, such as the nature of instinct, affect and indeed the biopsychosocial dynamics…

…from Dr. Sheldrake on morphic resonance, individual and collective memory, and the extended mind. Following this, both Dr. Sheldrake and Steve Richards will have a dialectic together around what was discussed. Then for the final half hour or so, Dr. Sheldrake…

…over to yourself, Dr. Sheldrake. Thank you so much for being with us here this evening. Well, thank you, James, and thank you, Steve, for arranging this. And I already know from my exchanges with Steve that you have a very wide range of interests that…

…this evening. Well, thank you, James, and thank you, Steve, for arranging this. And I already know from my exchanges with Steve that you have a very wide range of interests that go way beyond the narrow focus of many psychologists and psychotherapists.…

…to what you're studying and what you're practicing when you work as psychotherapists. Thank you, Dr. Sheldrake. Thank you. Right, Steve, you okay? Yes, thank you, Dr. Sheldrake. That was fantastic. You covered so much that is indeed very, very applicable…

…by what you said. But there are a few which I think are pretty cool. One of them is basically right off the back of what Steve was saying. So this works quite nicely. It comes from Marco, who I can see your name down the side, mate, but I can't see…

…seven or eight years working out the idea before I wrote a book about it, A New Science of Life, the one that Steve referred to. which was published in 1981. This flash happened in 1973. And then I've spent years trying to do experiments. The new…

…are already known and whether or not and then whether they can actually be tested empirically. But from what I gather from Steve and what I've heard this evening, it sounds as if that's what you are actually doing, that you're not only learning about…

…to anyone else Brilliant. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. And it looks like we're a few minutes over time. So Steve, was there anything else you just wanted to quickly jump in and say? Well, thank you, Dr. Sheldrake. Other than thanking you again…

…like cystic fibrosis or sickle cell anemia. So this led to a great deal of soul-searching in the realm of biology. Steve Jones, the geneticist at University College, said, well, if the genes aren't explaining inheritance, then what does? Then some people…

…the phone rings, if you're the subject, before you pick it up, you have to guess who's calling. So you might say, I think it's Steve. You pick it up, hi Steve. You're right or you're wrong. By chance, you'd be right about 25% of the time. In fact, in…

…of the universe, accepts that it might be wrong. And through its acceptance that it might be wrong, it is open to correction. Steve, do you want to jump in? Yes. Science talks the talk, but it doesn't walk the walk. Oh, come on. That's the bottom…

…all. But okay, we can start with the question, what was there before the Big Bang? A kind of platonic archetype, or God, or Steve Gould is thinking, am I going all the way to Hilversum just for answering God's questions? Or not? It's not a question we…

…can't play anymore with those nets, we'll replace one of them. This is a very, very conservative strategy. Absolutely right. You adopt it, Steve adopts it. But if one's ever going to find new models of reality in a radical way, one has to look at where…

…issues can be focused and asked in a scientific way. Let's have a look at common evolutionary theory for a moment. Steve Gould, you said that even today the theory of natural selection is widely misunderstood, misquoted and misapplied. I try to misquote,…

…And one of the reasons why Darwin has been so difficult to assimilate is this radical philosophical message of his theory. Steve, one thing about your diagnosis of the anxiety, the lay people have about evolution has puzzled me in the past because…

…sense, then we're here for a purpose, we rule by right. Is the conclusion okay? Consciousness is something sublime and whimsical, as Steve Poole wrote. It's a weird invention. That it's powerful doesn't mean it is meant to be. It wasn't developed to paint…

…know, but I'd rather not have it. I do have one because I'm doing experiments on cell phones, on telephone telepathy. My friend Steve, who I was talking about from London, same thing. He hates having a phone. Drives his wife crazy. Yes. Well, that's a…
