David Peat Extended Interview - Infinite Potential: The Life and Ideas of David Bohm

Watch The Film

In the early 1970’s, David Peat took a sabbatical year with Roger Penrose, but shortly after overheard a lecture by David Bohm and was instantly hooked. He made it his business to meet with and talk to Bohm, and soon after the two men became collaborators, sharing an interest in the nature of Consciousness. Then in 1987, they co-penned the book Science Order and Creativity.

This is how I view nature 7:12. Universe has to be a fractal. Each level is a classical theory, possesing its own "speed of light". The smaller the details - the faster the speed. Level is obtained by coarse-graining another one. It can be most easily seen from hydrodynamic quantum analogs.

Bohm and Krishnamurti had entirely different backgrounds, one (B) educated through traditional mainstream principles and the other (K) who was an original exponent of self-knowing via negation, but not forming conclusions which sounds rather weird. Nevertheless, what surfaces via negation is the ground or essence of relationships at every level of the living psychological perspective of human beings. Bohm was instrumental in bringing forth the intelligence of Krishnamurti’s ‘teachings’ in logical and reasoning terms that ordinary people could understand. It is unclear whether Bohm was responsible for altering the essential aspects of what Krishnamurti was alluding to, but he certainly assisted in the clarity of the explanation which was sometimes a bit vague at first sight. However, the ‘real’ was always latent and just needed to be teased out and Bohm performed that function admirably.

Sabine Hossenfelder recently put a video attacking people who dare to propose any link between QM and Consciousness. She thinks that after ridiculing popular in scientific culture strew man : Telepathy and Deepak Chopra
People will automatically start to treat her Superderminism as the only reasonable alternative.
Seven years ago it would certainly work: but now after Quantum Entanglement spooky Action Nobel Prize and recent Stuart Hameroffs August 2022 papers she's in position little better than Flat Earthers with her Superderminism!
But I also hope Realism will be saved in some way nevertheless.
David Bohm was so incredible!

Remember reading his 'Einstein's Moon'. But the cover says F. David Peat?
