In this episode, Devi chats with Mark Gober about Consciousness
and Spiritual Entrepreneurship. Mark is an author, a Partner
at Sherpa Technology Group in Silicon Valley, a former investment
banker with UBS in New York, and former captain of the Princeton
tennis team where he graduated magna cum laude.
His worldview was turned upside down in late 2016 when he was
exposed to world-changing science which suggested that, contrary to
mainstream assumptions, consciousness is not produced by the brain.
After researching extensively, he wrote An End to Upside Down
Thinking to introduce the general public to these cutting-edge
ideas -- all in an effort to encourage a much-needed global shift
in scientific and existential thinking.
Mark's book has been endorsed by leading thinkers such as former
Harvard neurosurgeon Eben Alexander MD, Nobel Peace Prize nominee
Dr. Ervin Laszlo, Pixar founder Loren Carpenter, University of
Virginia professor of neurobehavioral sciences and Harvard PhD Dr.
Ed Kelly, Chicken Soup for the Soul author Jack Canfield, actress
Goldie Hawn, and many others (for full endorsement list, see:
