Consciousness- Science, Spirituality and Social Impact

Overview

What you will study

Throughout the Consciousness- Science, Spirituality and Social Impact conference offered by Harvard University , we will have the privilege of learning from world-renowned thought leaders and scientists from various fields presenting their perspectives on these fascinating topics.

• Day 1 is dedicated to unraveling the nature of consciousness itself. While mainstream scientific perspectives typically attribute consciousness solely to the activity of the brain, existing models fall short in fully explaining the diverse phenomena associated with conscious experience. Conversely, spiritual traditions propose the brain as a conduit for experiencing consciousness. Together, we will explore consciousness from the lens of various scientific disciplines and examine the challenges and opportunities that these models present in arriving at a deeper understanding of consciousness.

• Day 2 of the course shifts the focus to the social impact of conscious leadership and environmental practices. Recognizing the influential role of leaders in shaping society, we will explore leadership qualities that foster inclusivity, vision, and integrity. Additionally, the session will spotlight the profound interdependence of environmental consciousness, overall individual health, and the health of our soil, and discover how they shape our collective well-being.
