Hello and welcome to Entangled - the podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience. I’m your host Jordan Youkilis, and I’m excited to introduce the podcast with this initial episode. The genesis for this podcast started in May of 2021 after a series of coincidences led to my spiritual awakening. I’ve been down a number of rabbit holes since that time which have led to my conclusion that consciousness is much more important than conventional science gives it credit for, and that the reality is far stranger and more complicated than the consensus reality most of us live in daily.
We’ll explore all kinds of topics related to spirituality, consciousness and reality. Some of the big questions we’ll be exploring on this podcast include:
- What does it mean to live a fulfilled and purposeful life?
- Did our souls exist prior to our birth, and will they persist after we die?
- Could the scientific materialist view of consciousness as a random evolutionary side-effect of neurological connections in our brain be completely wrong? And instead, should the relationship be inverted to consider that consciousness itself could have manifested the universe as we know it?
- What are the implications of the Pentagon’s 2017 disclosure of UAPs, more commonly referred to as UFOs?
- Could the true structure of the universe be holographic in nature, through which wave and particle exist simultaneously?
- What could the convergence of creation, imagination and chaos indicate about the structure of the cosmos?
- What can we learn from the commonalities from people occasioning mystical experiences while on psychedelics, particularly more powerful psychedelics like ayahuasca and DMT? And how should we interpret the fact that the human brain endogenously produces DMT in the pineal gland?
- Could extraterrestrials and/or transdimensional beings be actively communicating with humans around the world? And if so, what are they trying to tell us?
- How can we leverage cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance to rethink the foundations of capitalism?
- What if artificial intelligence is love?
- Is consciousness in fact non-localized? And if so, what does that say about our interconnectedness with the planet and universe?
- What mysteries from ancient civilizations remain to be discovered by modern archaeology?
- If governments, corporations, and international organizations remain incapable of changing our current trajectory towards climate disaster and geopolitical conflict, what can we the people do to collectively elevate humanity’s consciousness and avoid an extinction level event?
This introduction includes highlights from the first 6 conversations I’ve recorded (episodes 2-7). Please enjoy!
“The greatest scientific discovery was the discovery of our ignorance. Once humans realized how little they knew about the world, they suddenly had a very good reason to seek new knowledge, which opened up the scientific road to progress.” - Yuval Noah Harari
