Aboriginal scholar Tyson Yunkaporta joins Raghu to discuss our shared evolution of consciousness and navigating a post-truth world.

This week on Mindrolling, Tyson and Raghu have a conversation about:

Living in a post-truth world where objective facts lose to emotional/personal appeal
How coronavirus nudged us closer to fascism
Cultural feedback routes and how America affects Australia
Working with Indigenous medicine to connect to the spirit
Navigating the grieving process
Revolutions of consciousness through the eras
Our universal connection and sharing of space with each other
Disinformation and the build-up to our recent election
Right story versus wrong story and how the truth gets blurred
All of our relations, human and non-human
