Why Science Needs Contemplation ~ Physics PhD & Meditator Wolfgang Lukas

Nondual Communication

Show Notes

It was a warm pleasure to spend some time with my friend and physics PhD Wolfgang, as we meandered through his tellings on spiritual awakenings, psychedelic (or not) deepsea creatures, communication with trees, and his endeavors to bring contemplation and the spirit of collaboration (back) into human science.

In this deep and contemplative conversation, Dr. Wolfgang Lukas shares his transformative experiences at CERN, explores the limits of science, and emphasizes the importance of slowing down to reconnect with the mystery of life.

The dialogue touches on mindfulness in research, the spiritual dimension of scientific inquiry, and the need for contemplative collaboration in science.

Every time I sit down to talk and listen to Yoram Mosenzon, I’m amazed by the depth of his embodiment of Nonviolent Communication, and by how deeply he is able to go through what I experience as his commitment to honesty, self-connection, and trusting the wisdom of the body and Nature’s own unfolding.
