    These two compliment eachother perfectly. Ive been enjoying Merlins presence in my head for a couple of years now like a very fine wine, now i realise I've been missing the cheese

    I’m delighted to see Merlin Sheldrake present to the public the case for symbiosis and connectivity thinking in 2023.Merlin mentioned Lynn Margulies toward the end of the talk because she was the evolutionary biologist who fought the scientific academic community for 25 years before finally being accepted with her theory of symbiosis. Bravo Merlin! Lynn was my best friend at the U of Chicago in the 1950s and I know she would have loved this video as much as I have. Thank you for this…good fortune and good future for us all!’ 14:39

      Hi Rachel, nice to hear your connection with Lynn. I just got out of my depth reading Lynn and reverted to Merlin for a while. It's a great presentation.

    That part about the end of the world not actually being the end of the world and instead being the end of us, resonated with me. They’re correct. We, as humans, think we are more important than we actually are and we need to reform those symbiotic relationships with plants and fungi. We do not have dominion over anything, something has dominion over us. The day we realise what our place is on this earth will be the day we become more advanced than we could ever have hoped.

    Love this combination of understatement and massive expertise. So British.

    Thank you for speaking out about the trash fire that is America's pharmaceutical industry. That shit damn near killed me, and is what inevitably led me to mushrooms (and eventually your book). Mushrooms saved my quality of life and a lot changed really fast. It's a wonderful time to be studying mushrooms in Oregon. I owe them so mush. :*) ...they're also slowly taking over my studio...just so many mushrooms. haha

    Dr. Merlin Sheldrake is so endearing when speaking about eating mushrooms who devoured Dr. Sheldrake's book. 😊

    Such beautiful insights so beautifully communicated 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
    Yes all this 'saviour' mentality... so very potentially dangerous.
    Thank you for mentioning the dangers of cultivated and foreign plants/fungi escaping into the wild.
    May your insight myceliate the present system, digest it and transform it!
    Am looking forward to living long enough to see people's awe, respect and understanding grow to such an extent that today's human misdemeanors will be well on the way to being a thing of the past.

    Dr. Smit, being a person from the UK may be observing and making observations about people who are a lot more "staid" than much of the rest of the world's peoples. Rigid, maybe is the word I'd use, having lived there for a while...which is not to say this isn't a wonderful highly successful, etc etc peoples and country, but....to me it tends toward formality and a certain degree of rigor/stiffening up among the older citizens: Which may explain his view about younger people (who, very often can be pretty darn dystopian everywhere, but who may seem more "breakthrough-oriented" when viewed within the context of the British traditions) I will also add, I think he is brilliant and a wonderful listen (as with M. Sheldrake) and greatly admire him. Also adding that I am an Anglophile, regardless of any of the above.

    I like to think that Newton’s third law: explains his theory-and the equal and opposite reaction was the apple cider you invented. I like your work and that of a Rupert Sheldrake. Cheers!

    I met a guy who was experimenting with creating materials from fungi and moulding it into windmills. I think there could be a future with materials that are harmful.
