On Transcendence – Episode 0002
Guest: Dr. Dean Radin
Host: Dr. Baruti KMT-Sisouvong
Title: The Science of Magic
In this thought-provoking episode of On Transcendence, Dr. Baruti KMT-Sisouvong sits down with Dr. Dean Radin—scientist, author, and one of the world’s leading researchers on psi, magic, and consciousness.
Across four decades, Dr. Radin has explored the hidden capacities of the human mind, revealing that what ancient traditions call magic may be a lawful, measurable feature of reality itself.
In this conversation, we explore:
What science now understands about psi phenomena
Why intention and attention matter more than we think
How consciousness participates in shaping the physical world
The role of ritual and symbolism as technologies of mind
Retrocausality, precognition, and time as a relationship, not an absolute
The convergence of mysticism, meditation, and modern experimental data
This dialogue bridges the measurable and the mystical, the empirical and the experiential—inviting us to rethink what the mind truly is and what human beings may yet become.
