Jude, thank you so much for joining me on Planet Critical. I'm so thrilled to have you on the show and that we've got the tech working this time. So could you give your career background for people that may not have come across you? Because your work sort of spans so many different fields. It really is quite extraordinary how you tie it all together. Yeah, well it has been a scenic route, I have to say. From the very earliest, I mean, my life journey really is one of curiosity. When I was four years old, I began to realise that the nature reality was much more than it seemed to be. And that really opened me to some curiosity
Our scientific model of the universe is changing.
From the mechanistic, rational ideas of the 20th century, physics is now understanding that the universe itself is conscious—that we are all expressions of consciousness. Looks like those indigenous teachers were right.
On this episode, Jude Currivan, cosmologist and author of The Story of Gaia, walks us through all of the evidence we have to suggest that the universe is conscious, from the latest Nobel Prize Award in physics to thousands of years of spiritual wisdom. Jude then explains the necessity of a new worldview of unity and wholeness to help mitigate the crises that we are seeing, whether these are human crises or the climate crisis, and become the next stage in this evolution of universal consciousness.
“Our universe, we're now discovering, is innately intelligent, and its innate intelligence is meaningfully informed in a way through the laws of physics and through their relationships to enable it to not just exist, but to evolve from that first moment 13.8 billion years ago—from its initial simplicity to ever greater levels of complexity and diversity.”
