Gnosticism with Richard Smoley

source: New Thinking Allowed     2016年11月27日
Richard Smoley is editor of Quest: The Journal of the Theosophical Society in America. He is also former editor of Gnosis Magazine. His books include Hidden Wisdom: The Guide to the Western Inner Traditions, Inner Christianity: The Guide to the Esoteric Tradition, Forbidden Faith: The Secret History of Gnosticism, The Essential Nostradamus, Conscious Love: Insights from Mystical Christianity, The Dice Game of Shiva: How Consciousness Creates the Universe, The Supernatural: Writings on an Unknown History, The Deal: A Guide to Radical and Complete Forgiveness, and How God Became God: What Scholars Are Really Saying About God and the Bible.
Here he notes that Gnosticism originated among faith communities of Christian believers in the earliest years, suggesting that it was based upon original teachings that Jesus shared with some disciples. Gnostics apparently communicated with other schools of esoteric thought, including hermeticism and astrology. Eventually it was persecuted by the Church and almost entirely eliminated. The teachings of Gnosticism relate to discovering spiritual truths within oneself, rather than from external authorities. In recent centuries there has been a revival of Gnostic thought. One of the most prominent Gnostic thinkers in the modern era is the eighteenth century poet and artist, William Blake.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is a past vice-president of the Association for Humanistic Psychology; and is the recipient of the Pathfinder Award from that Association for his contributions to the field of human consciousness. He is also past-president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.

The Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo, Part One: The Revolutionary Yogi, with Debashish Banerji

source: New Thinking Allowed    2016年1月5日
Debashish Banerji, PhD, is Dean of Academic Affairs at the University of Philosophical Research in Los Angeles as well as an adjunct faculty member at Pasadena City College and the California Institute of Integral Studies. He is also the former director of the East West Cultural Center in Los Angeles. He is author of Seven Quartets of Becoming: A Transformative Yoga Psychology Based on the Diaries of Sri Aurobindo and also The Alternative Nation of Abanindranath Tagore, a book about his great grandfather. He edited an anthology about his great uncle, Rabindranath Tagore in the Twenty-First Century.
Here he describes Aurobindo’s unique role as a spiritual figure during the chaotic years of the early twentieth century. Born to an upper-class Indian family, he studied in England and achieved high marks as a scholar. When he returned to India, he became a leader in the anti-colonial movement. At this time he also began practicing yoga and quickly discovered many extraordinary states of consciousness. Eventually he was imprisoned for his political activities and, while in prison, his yoga and meditative practices accelerated. He began to experience himself as having a personal relationship with god (Brahman), mediated by the avatar Krishna. He came to experience everything and everyone as an embodiment of Krishna. As a result, he came to realize that a political revolution would be incomplete without an accompanying spiritual revolution.

Cognitive Biases, the Psychology of Reasoning & Logical Languages

source: Philosophical Overdose    2013年1月29日
Catarina Duthil Novaes (ILLC/Amsterdam) gives at talk at MCMP titled "Cognitive motivations for treating formalisms as calculi". In The Logical Syntax of Language, Carnap famously recommended that logical languages be treated as mere calculi, and that their symbols be viewed as meaningless; reasoning with the system is to be guided solely on the basis of its rules of transformation. Carnap˙s main motivation for this recommendation seems to be related to a concern with precision and exactness. In my talk, I argue that Carnap was right in insisting on the benefits of treating logical formalisms as calculi, but he was wrong in thinking that enhanced precision is the main advantage of this approach. Instead, I argue that a deeper impact of treating formalisms as calculi is of a cognitive nature: by adopting this stance, the reasoner is able to counter some of her "default" reasoning tendencies, which (although advantageous in most practical situations) may hinder the discovery of novel facts in scientific contexts. One of these cognitive tendencies is the constant search for confirmation for the beliefs one already holds, as extensively documented and studied in the psychology of reasoning literature, and often referred to as confirmation bias/belief bias. Treating formalisms as meaningless and relying on their well-defined rules of formation and transformation allows the reasoner to counter her own belief bias for two main reasons: it 'switches off' semantic activation, which is thought to be a largely automatic cognitive process, and it externalizes reasoning processes; they now take place largely through the manipulation of the notation. I argue moreover that the manipulation of the notation engages predominantly sensorimotor processes rather than being carried out internally: the agent is literally 'thinking on the paper'. The analysis relies heavily on empirical data from psychology and cognitive sciences, and is largely inspired by recent literature on extended cognition (in particular Clark, Menary and Sutton). If I am right, formal languages treated as calculi and viewed as external cognitive artifacts offer a crucial cognitive boost to human agents, in particular in that they seem to produce a beneficial de-biasing effect.

Jigsaw Presents: Clay Shirky: "Little Rice" | Talks At Google

source: Talks at Google    2016年11月28日
Almost unknown to the rest of the globe, Xiaomi has become the world's third-largest mobile phone manufacturer. Its high-end phones are tailored to Chinese and emerging markets, where it outsells even Samsung. Since the 1990s China has been climbing up the ladder of quality, from doing knockoffs to designing its own high-end goods.
Xiaomi its name literally means "little rice" is landing squarely in this shift in China's economy. But the remarkable rise of Xiaomi from startup to colossus is more than a business story, because mobile phones are special. The common desiderata of the global population, mobile phones offer the kind of freedom and connectedness that autocratic countries are terrified of. China's fortune and future clearly lie with "opening up" to the global market, requiring it to allow local entrepreneurs to experiment.
Clay Shirky, one of the most influential and original thinkers on how technological innovation affects social change around the world, now turns his attention to the most populous country of them all. The case of Xiaomi exemplifies the balancing act that China has to perfect to navigate between cheap copies and innovation, between the demands of local and global markets, and between freedom and control.

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, Part Two: The ABCs, with Debbie Joffe Ellis

source: New Thinking Allowed    2016年2月3日
Debbie Joffe Ellis, wife of the late Albert Ellis, founder of REBT, is a licensed Australian psychologist and is licensed in NY as mental health counselor. She has a doctorate in alternative medicine from the Indian Board of Alternative Medicines in affiliation with the World Health Organization, from which she has also received a gold medal (1993) in recognition of her service in the field of alternative medicine. She is coauthor, with her late husband, of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and also his autobiography, All Out! She is an adjunct professor at Columbia University Teachers College.
Here she describes the sequence of processes in rational emotive behavior therapy, using the acronym ABCDE. Activating events, mediated by our belief systems, lead to consequences. Irrational beliefs are then disputed vigorously and replaced by more effective, rational beliefs. She notes the hostility Albert Ellis first encountered when he initially presented his theories of psychotherapy, pointing out that he used his own techniques to cope with the challenges he faced. She also points out that Ellis used in vivo desensitization techniques to deal with his own early life anxieties regarding talking to women and also public speaking. She mentions the influence that REBT has had on cognitive behavior therapy, positive psychology, coaching, and other psychological trends.

Why are we so attached to our things? - Christian Jarrett

source: TED-Ed    2016年12月27日
View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-are-we-...
After witnessing the “violent rage” shown by babies whenever deprived of an item they considered their own, Jean Piaget – a founding father of child psychology – observed something profound about human nature: Our sense of ownership emerges incredibly early. But why do we become so attached to things? Christian Jarrett details the psychology of ownership.

Representing Arthur Schopenhauer

source: Philosophical Overdose    2016年11月25日
Grant Bartley from Philosophy Now discusses the ideas of the 19th century German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer with Christopher Janaway of the University of Southampton and Daniel Came of St Hugh’s College, Oxford on Philosophy Now Radio Podcast https://philosophynow.org

Arthur Schopenhauer is perhaps most famous for his extreme pessimism. Seeing the world as something horrific and bleak, following in part from our drives/desires, he urged that we turn against such. As a follower of Immanuel Kant, he took space, time, and causality to be, not things-in-themselves, but categories of the mind through which we interpret and make sense of things. However, in contrast to Kant, Schopenhauer argued that reality must ultimately be one, which is essentially "Will". There are several remarkable things about him, including the fact that he was the only major Western philosopher to draw serious and interesting parallels between Western and Eastern thought, as well as being the first major philosopher to openly identify as an atheist. He had a significant influence on many great thinkers and artists, including Nietzsche, Freud, Wittgenstein, and Wagner. The arts were particularly important for Schopenhauer not only because he thought they give us a glimpse into the underlying reality, but because they help us to escape our individuality and thus the inherent suffering and meaningless absurdity of existence.

Realities and Realms: Responsive Technologies in Ecological Systems, Part 2

source: Harvard GSD     2016年11月29日
The Realities and Realms colloquium focuses on the role of computation and robotics in landscape architecture and the expanding sensorial field of the built environment. These hybrid grounds of operation merge anthropogenic perception and technological mediation. As sensing networks expand, data grows exponentially in quantity and ubiquity, building an increasingly abstract landscape of information. How such data is elucidated, curated, and augmented forms new realities for design. This colloquium will explore design methodologies that address concurrent physical and virtual realms and the realities in which they operate.In this context, a realm is a lens through which we sense an environment and a reality is place within which we take action. The Realities and Realms colloquium engages select practitioners, theorists, and academics for an afternoon to explore the future of responsive technologies to interpret and modify environment. Panelists will posit trajectories that frame the role of responsive technologies to imagine, choreograph, and evolve cyborg landscapes and synthetic ecologies.The colloquium will be organized in two panel sessions followed by open discussions, exploring the tools, practice, theories, and futures of responsive technologies in landscape architecture.

Environmental Justice: Then and Now | The New School

source: The New School     2016年11月29日
Delegates to the First National People of Color Environmental Leadership Summit held on October 24-27, 1991, in Washington DC, drafted and adopted 17 Principles of Environmental Justice (http://ejnet.org/ej/principles.html). These Principles were created to build a national and international movement to fight the destruction and taking of lands and communities and to secure political, economic, and cultural liberation denied for over 500 years of colonization and oppression. Since then, The Principles have served as a defining document for the grassroots movement for environmental justice.
This video registers the Tishman Environment and Design Center (http://newschool.edu/tedc) on the 25th Anniversary of the adoption of these environmental justice Principles as it examined the issues of race and the environment in the 21st century. The event featured a discussion with our faculty as they explored the themes of the Principles and opportunities for achieving environmental justice across different social movements, practices and disciplinary perspectives.

Speakers:
- Joel Towers, Executive Dean of Parsons School of Design
- Maya Wiley, Senior Vice President for Social Justice & Henry Cohen Professor of Urban Policy and Management
- Mia White, Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies
- Mindy Fullilove, Professor of Urban Policy and Health
- Ana Baptista, Assistant Professor of Professional Practice in Environmental Policy and Sustainability Management & Associate Director of the Tishman Environment and Design Center

In this lecture for Arts One at the University of British Columbia, Derek Gladwin talks about the degree to which this film revisits Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness and deviates from it (the students had just read Conrad's novella), the style of filmaking that this film could be said to fit into, the historical and cultural context of the film, and cultural and literary references in the film.

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, Part One: Life's Hardships, with Debbie Joffe Ellis

source: New Thinking Allowed     2016年1月31日
Debbie Joffe Ellis, wife of the late Albert Ellis, founder of REBT, is a a licensed Australian psychologist and is licensed in NY as mental health counselor. She has a doctorate in alternative medicine from the Indian Board of Alternative Medicines in affiliation with the World Health Organization, from which she has also received a gold medal (1993) in recognition of her service in the field of alternative medicine. She is coauthor, with her late husband, of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and also his autobiography, All Out! She is an adjunct professor at Columbia University Teachers College.
REBT is based on the notion that we can replace our irrational and dysfunctional belief patterns with rational beliefs that better serve us and improve our lives. She notes that there are interesting parallels between REBT and certain (but not all) aspects of Buddhism. She describes trying life circumstances in which REBT enabled her to function and enjoy life. She lists many of the philosophical influences on REBT, particularly the ancient stoics such as Epictetus who was a slave. She also tells the story of her parents who were holocaust survivors. She points out that research supports the use of rational and cognitive approaches in therapy. She also discusses the role of gratitude; and emphasizes the importance of unconditional acceptance of self and others.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He serves as dean of transformational psychology at the University of Philosophical Research. He teaches parapsychology for ministers in training with the Centers for Spiritual Living through the Holmes Institute. He has served as vice-president of the Association for Humanistic Psychology, and is the recipient of its Pathfinder Award for outstanding contributions to the field of human consciousness. He is also past-president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.
