John R. Audette – “Your Valentine”: Reflections on Love and its Seven Siblings
This presentation explores the origin of Valentine’s Day and its strong relevance for the many challenges humanity faces today, emphasizing its original focus on pure selfless agape love and holding tight to the courage of one’s convictions during times of darkness and adversity. It also probes the role of frontier science as the primary impetus for a paradigm shift to retire materialism through robust in new branches of physics. It could one day result in a major ideological revolution, a theory of everything – including consciousness – one that could engender an optimal future for earth and all its inhabitants. It would be a new evidence-based paradigm, buttressed by frontier science, which could replace “every man for himself” thinking with the more enlightened model of “all for one and one for all” in an empirically defensible manner, definitively invalidating dualism, separatism, materialism, nihilism and ego-centrism.
