The Brain and the Universe: The Jacobo Grinberg Story with Alex Gomez-Marin

Alex Gomez-Marin, PhD, is director of the Organism Behavior Laboratory at the Institute of Neuroscience in Alicante, Spain. He is an associate professor at the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the director of the Pari Center in Tuscany, Italy. His work encompasses the microscopic origins of the arrow of time, animal neuroethology in different species, and artificial intelligence applied to human stupidity. His current research focuses on the scientific study of consciousness in the real world. His research proposal, "Seeing Without Eyes," won the Linda G. O'Bryant Noetic Sciences research prize.

Here he expresses his admiration and respect for the wide-ranging career of anthropologist/neurologist, Jacobo Grinberg, who mysteriously disappeared in 1994.

I knew Jacobo Grinberg, here in Tepoztlan, Morelos. He was training a few young girls, including his daughter, to see without their eyes. How colors would feel different. He was a fabulously interesting man. Thank you for this interview.

[cuttheknot]

What a sweet human of a guest this young man is. You can just tell how good of a person he is. Thank you to you, both.

[gordonmeeks]

Jacques Vallee should be interviewed about his thoughts on Jacobo Grinberg, another student of Magonia.

[fridusfroetzl]

What a thrill to watch this conversation! I learned many new things about Jacobo Grinberg and would love to watch the documentary. I can easily see how Grinberg is a source of inspiration to Alex. Beside all his own groundbreaking scientific work he is now also explaining Grinberg's legacy to the non-Spanish speaking people. Such a pleasure to see these conversations between Alex and Jeffrey.

You are just getting better with age. Thanks!

[mmorrison]

What a wonderfully fascinating interview.
Funny I heard about Grinberg in my youth (very early twenties), read some of his stuff. I'm now in my early 50's, and am glad he is getting more penetrative recognition. Brilliant!!

[diannchemam]

Fascinating ! Thank you Jeff and Alex❤

[chrisallard]

Excellent and fascinating - many thanks

My father was an identical twin ... so were his sisters ... two pairs of identical twins in the same family. My perception of reality was moulded by several incidents that "proved" beyond a shadow of doubt that when one of them experienced a "crisis" the other twin also experienced it at the time it was happening, despite, in one incident, of them being separated by several thousand miles. Also, my maternal grandmother displayed an ability to experience at a distance "crisis" incidents involving her adult children. As for my consciousness ... I experience the world in a very different way to what is considered normal. My experiences are not limited to "telepathy", ,, they are such that I think of myself as some sort of "Shaman".

[jessemorales]

Excellent. So happy to see this genius being discussed

[juanmagana]

I kind of wish that Jacobo would have known the work from bentov itzhak or vice versa. Both died/disappeared too early. Same as John Mack. They were borderline into something that would have made the UAP phenomena look irrelevant.

Another masterpiece Jeffery & NTA team. Alex Gomez-Marin is a young shooting star! A meteor full of insight and wisdomite, a rare space element! I am hopeful NTA’s genius will see fit to bring Merlin Sheldrake into its family tree to explore Merlin’s remarkable tome Entangled Life. Kudos to you by the score Dr. Mishlove, with each episode you exalt your transcendence and quicken your immortality to a diamond like vitality.

[greglynch]

Wow ! Thank you ! So rare and beautiful !

[workerselite]

Great stuff Dr. Mishlove! Grateful for your interest in Dr. Grinberg works with which we are familiar with have had the pleasure to compare their contents with the ones of other pioneers in the quantum information field. We wish a great future to this young brilliant scientist who inspires all of us to pursue a better understanding of the perceived reality we are experiencing in this realm. Kudos from Japan ❤

[Lesley]

Exciting stuff, great interview again, thank you!

[truincanada]

Excellent branching. Thanknyou gentlemen 😊

[thepossibilitygap]

Absolute love love love this. Thank you both for sharing this with us. He reminds me of Leonardo da Vinci's discoveries relating to the human heart and his unorthodox methods at the time.

[Glowmagia]

Thanks, I am certainly investigating Jacobo Grinberg story! Sounds wildly exciting.
