Ik bekijk met Dirk Van Duppen vanuit verschillende perspectieven de vraag “zijn we inherent goed, of slecht?”.
Dit gesprek is gestructureerd op basis van zijn boek “De Supersamenwerker”, en een echte aanrader mocht u deze thematiek interessant vinden.
Dirk is arts en vecht al heel zijn leven voor betaalbare geneesmiddelen. Hij schreef ondermeer het boek “De Cholesterol-oorlog, waarom geneesmiddelen zo duur zijn”.
Dirk heeft zonet een nieuw boek uit, dewelke ik met veel plezier zal lezen: "Zo verliep de tijd die me toegewezen was": http://bit.ly/2NHLDQA

This was
a very personal interview, and it some of the most
practical insights in a
short amount of time I have ever encountered on:
- being
grateful for food and shelter
- being
ready to die, but loving to live
- why you
make yourself unhappy
- how to
stop living like a zombie
- why
it’s good to cry like a baby
- how
everything is temporary, including feeling bad
- how and
when to finally start living your dream
- most
importantly: don’t hold your farts, let them go!

In this episode, Steven examines the central question “Who or what are we?” with Radu Surdeanu.
Together with Radu, both a physicist and a Zen practitioner, we talk about the two things science still has no clue about what’s going on: quantum physics and consciousness. To give you even a bigger headache, we also talk about Artificial Intelligence.
