'Nothing in the secular realm ever has been, nor ever will be, absolute."
Wisdom and knowledge this man possessed was awesome and relevant today the way things are playing out in our country run by the one percent 😊
It's ran by the consent of the 60% suggestible and the whole other 99% don't be a FOOL
I love hearing the crisp sound of pages filled with notes turning in this lecture.
Sounds more like a script to me 😏
He was almost blind ...
Well-stated by Mr. Huxley. The peskiness of "wild facts" has always been a sort of Wolfsbane to the werewolves of academic science i.e., those professionals who remain committed to a certain brand of current knowledge, which support a mainstream theory or even dogma.
Like well-cut diamonds, truth often has many facets, which are not readily apparent to all observers, yet reflect desirable light nonetheless. The value of science is self-correction over time, despite disbelief and even disdain, for new evidence surfacing with improved methods and observational techniques. Perfection is a very rare bird to see in science.

Which Disney assassination do you prefer?
1, marilyn monroe as "sleeping beauty"?
2, marina oswald as "marina in heartland "?
3, martin luther as "the lyin-king"?
4, walt Disney as "hitler"?
I am partial to tecnodictator , the president of hearts death , jfk in "marina in heartland". The tecnodictator "hitler" was okay._.
Open minds will turn something over time and time again. Those that believe that they know something absolutely, have already closed their minds!
Well put !

Universe is a mystery.....it'll remain so......wont it?
Thank you for posting! Love this man and his wisdom and depth.
This is awesome thank you for posting!
Don't comment; just envision the sounds as the sights and experiences of the people...even from 61 years ago as though we are there right Now. How did they know to record all these? How does that work?
Gen-x-Zeke 8 thank goodness they did record this.
It’s a Brave New World ! Shine Bright! We shall adapt and overcome!

The conscious physical memory of function and experience is our brain, the conscious meta-phisical memory of function and experience is our thinking, the perpetual link is conscious memory. ....

Saint Aldous Huxley
Thought where does it come from how does it develop..
Great mind Huxley was.
40:00 - 45:00 I infrequently enjoy people like Huxley , handing
The institution of scientific enquiry it's own arse on a plate.
He describes the "switching on" of genes by novel environmental experiences and almost in one breath, also describes "big five " personality traits (albeit incompletely) , and the dynamic of self- ego- persona and hints , all too briefly on the individual and collective unconscious.
Sadly , science , being a prisoner of its own methodologies , rejects the gifts of this " mind".
That proof which science demands , is costing us as a species , many valuable years, decades, centuries....Who was it that said " science is a harsh mistress" ?
Well said ... but the long overdue 'Reformation' of Western Materialist Science is starting to come about ... Like big ships, these things are very slow and very difficult to turn around.

Yes. As visionary as he was, Huxley was unencumbered by institutional chains and even those of academia; to an extent.
Within his 1959 lectures at Santa Monica ,he alludes to the value of " bridge builders" ,between science, the arts and religion ,as well as the scientific disciplines themselves.
A recent,striking example is the very scientifically involved work of Dr Iain Mc Gilchrist (you should see his bio)!
If every scientist were to familiarize themselves with THAT work , well, the ship , once turned around, may just find itself on a more suitable, human- centric course.
Cheers !
@@siyaindagulag. Beautifully put...and let us hope it will be so! Cheers! 😀
We must be cautious not to fall into a condition of “spiritual gluttony.” This can occur in both the Eastern or Buddhist philosophy and in the Western or Christian tradition.
Just a thought. Seeing as he had his wife give him LSD while he was dying, it must have taken several hours before he realized he had already died.
It depends on how much he took, if it was under 200 mics than he was most likely aware
Psychogenic Compounds we’re given by the Shaman’s when children came of age!

In years of Hospice. I am familiar with the different rituals of the “ Spiritual Re Birth.” As I/ We came to refer to the process of transitioning from the materium into the etherium. There is much to be learned from the various cultures process of physical Death. Shine Bright! Dialogue is what makes us human!
Wonderful topic. Use these gifts from the Kingdom Plantae and Fungi!

@@charleyu5506 after his first shot she asked if he wanted another intramuscular shot. He squeezed her hand since he couldn't speak and she gave him another.
57:00 this is such a clear explanation of death and reincarnation
I never believed in the system nor the academia process ... of the higher power’s to be ..
I was truly guided by another power... not by the TV propaganda, the left the right
Or any other side;) mans false beliefs...

speaks of theory & personal beliefs, none of which were subsequently found to be true
Huxley at times confuses changes in a personality, which is normally established early in life, with changes in learned behavior in response to both maturation and experience. Unique, yet stable personality traits, do enable us to have continuity of character across the lifespan and make us knowable to others, while all else is indeed ephemeral.
Foo Cue , when on the front , you ask yourself , all for its the only one who has the opinions for choices to ask your thoughts its thought to consciousness where all human knowledge is works , theories, unfinished science and nature of man , as way of human beings , for biological ecosystem co existance for unity as universe viewing itself , seeing itself in self , conscienceness, universal collective consciousness, human being , mind is matter in mind , the matter and mind is it does not matter , thats the heart , its all that matters , emotions control the mind to rash decision, in emotion psycology in trauma situtation , life , is emotion in mind of emotion to linguistics as language that conceptualize the concept or live the emotion with mind by heart.
Personality is a very shallow and limited perspective of a human being. Rather fixating on personality, instead we should learn to be authentic. Instead of just playing out our early life experiences and environments, which is how personality is formed. Some people have great parents, who allow children to be free and safe to develop uniquely. Most people, have parents who push their own agendas with little self awareness, which do more damage than good. The result being, people who think they are their personalities. Which is, in my opinion, a terrible mistake.
I want to be my own payee.
📍WATTS wrong w DIS ZERO world? Laura Huxley?! Did he tell you something DATA we don't know &/or KANT underSTAND📍💭 AH A H A.H. Aldous Huxley WILST hmm 💭📍
Pure evil....distilled
Absolute nonsense. He was a great man.
@@jiggerinokobalis609 Brave New World is his vision, not a warning. Get a clue.
@@RAndrewKReed perhaps you didn't read the book you ignorant peasant. The foolishness and arrogance you bring to this conversation is embarrassing.
Rupert Sheldrake, fascinating British scientist, has devised many tests that verify ESP like filming dogs who sense when their owners are heading home miles away, and other tests done on line.
It is a wonderful thing that canines are psychic.
I wonder what they think about a scientist that is better at selling books than doing work that anyone other than tabloids and their "researchers" can respect. Were I to do such work I would prefer to convince my colleagues of the truth and efficacy of my models than the general public.
@@MagnumInnominandum If you were to actually read Sheldrake you would likely grasp why his colleagues are resistant to even entertaining the validity of his research. But, hylics gonna hylic.

My boyfriend is a decendant of Aldous and I'm trying to look into his history more... I can't believe how much i agree with this man... Im glad I'm going to marry his great great great maybe one more great grandson lol... Aldous is a good man... And I'm excited to be a part of this family
Awwwww!
I met with Mr.Huxley B/4 he passed away . He was an incredible person ♦♦♦
Weird flex
Huxley was a psychopath, hes also not that old
Listen to his speech at uc Berkley in 1962, it will help you make sense of the last two years.
Give up the search and you will discover a completely stress free existence (real peace) is all you were ever looking for.
Right.
Give up the search? Your idea of free existence might as well be non existence.
@@LePeterK123 "Stress" free existence, let all worries dissolve as they weren't real anyway. Put your conscious awareness on your conscious awareness, then real happiness will shine, unhinded by thought clouds. :)
@@Errrokay living without a Jesus and God centered life will bring you emptiness. Living without reason or “stress” isn’t the answer.
@@LePeterK123 Some people need the idea of a higher power to take care of all their stresses, woes and worries, some people take a short cut, cut out the middle man. ;)
Great man. 😍
Thank you so much for finding and uploading this
The undifferentiated divine ground of all being is a good way to say it. The union with the clear light.
Thanks 4. the comment. I was given the pleasure of meeting Mr
Huxley before he passed. 💔♦♦♦ .Diamondave.com
00:01 Is it just my imagination . . . or did people clap differently 56 years ago (?)
Arbiter ...yes
All these clappers are deceased 🙄
Yes, they clapped with one hand. Today we use two!
Yes, they didn't shout "Woo!"
no, it's also my imagination
An Anatomy of Human Destructiveness
AH was willing to think outside the box. I consider him a torch bearer for the "60's revolution" along with The Beats et al.
.....and the boundaries between, have only firmed in recent times.
ESP is a given, all animals have this skill getting inside other's heads, to avoid being eaten! Humans have lost this gift except for the few who continue to perfect it, which is easily done if you believe, practice intuitive acts like guessing who is calling, then trust your results. The trick is to just let it come to you passively like other critters do ~~
I'm highly intuitive; It saved my butt, and many others.
Amazing how Britain in the days of Empire created these impressive people.The doctor in Chinsura for example quoted by Huxley.
Huxley: "animal magnetism" used to be considered hypnotism...very interesting. Do you think today's "reality crowd" could understand any of this?
40:00 - 45:23 Identity potential
wonder if all the miracles are happened already !
When. Was this tall?
30:14
Pure Catholicism.
Catholic meaning universal. The door which is open to all who seek and shall find, Christ.
