About the video: ‘Should spirituality and science be unified? (part 1)’
In this two-part series Dr. Sahtouris talks about reuniting spirituality with science in order to form a new world view – a world view that shows how humanity is still evolving and how the environmental crisis is the challenge that will prove our mettle as a species. Sahtouris draws upon the fascinating world of living systems to give examples of how change is ever-occurring in nature and how we are all inter-connected in ways that we have only just begun to understand. What does it take to survive?
