Science is at a crossroads: after five hundred years, only 5% of the universe has been studied, with the remaining 95% called DARK. Materialism is growing daily and spirituality as a part of every day life is dropping: spiritual but not religious is the largest fraction of US populace. AlephTalks deals with these foundational issues: what is life? why are we here? where are we going? what can provide meaning to life? what about the past prophets and their teachings? how does art and music and dance enter into this discussion? what about the true teachings of Jesus of Nazareth: love yourself and love your neighbor, show compassion to all? what about the Kabbalah and the Essenes? how does modern science reconcile these issues of soul and consciousness and mind interrelate?
