Debating science and spiritual practices – Rupert Sheldrake vs Susan Blackmore

00:00

Rupert Sheldrake is often regarded as a maverick in science. He had his TED talk on the “Science Delusion” banned after other scientists objected. In his new book “Science and Spiritual Practises” he makes the case for the proven scientific benefit of religious practises.

He engages with atheist psychologist Susan Blackmore on their shared love of spiritual practises such as meditation but why Rupert believes there is a God behind the whole show, as they debate science, consciousness and ‘morphic resonance’.
