    BREAKTHROUGH: Consciousness Creates the Simulation | Dr. Donald Hoffman
    Feb 17 2026
    Cognitive Scientist, Dr. Donald Hoffman returns to the mind meld! Are we, as Plato argued thousands of years ago, mistaking shadows on a cave wall for reality? 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership In this conversation with the brilliant Dr. Donald Hoffman, we question whether space-time and the world we experience with our senses is fundamental or merely a shallow projection of something deeper. Drawing on Plato’s cave, physics, cognitive science, mystical traditions, quantum theory, and Hoffman’s own framework of conscious agents, we explore the possibility that reality emerges from consciousness rather than the other way around. Don also shares what could be a mind blowing breakthrough in his theory. What is reality? Will science ever find a final theory of everything? Are we locked inside a simulation designed for survival, not truth? If consciousness transcends space-time, what does that imply about our potential, our perception, our purpose and our fate as beings? We riff on all of this and more in this mind meld.

  • Classified Truth? UFOs, Alien Gods, & The Myth That Shapes Reality | Peter Levenda

    Classified Truth? UFOs, Alien Gods, & The Myth That Shapes Reality | Peter Levenda
    Feb 7 2026
    Peter Levenda enters the mind meld! In this one, I’m joined by author, scholar and researcher Peter Levenda. We explore UFOs not as isolated anomalies, but as part of a much older mysterious, mythic and psychospiritual that structure shapes human belief. 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership We riff on why humanity could be a cargo cult, government secrecy, the relationship between the UFO phenomenon and intelligence communities, and why governments may relate to the UFO phenomenon as not just a scientific mystery, but a narrative problem. From consciousness and psi research to initiation rituals, esoteric traditions, sensory deprivation, and out-of-body states, Levenda traces a through-line connecting ancient ideas of celestial ascent with modern space programs and disclosure culture.

  • UFOs, Consciousness, and the Hidden Architects of Reality | Jesse Michels

    UFOs, Consciousness, and the Hidden Architects of Reality | Jesse Michels
    Jan 27 2026
    Jesse Michels returns to the mind meld! Jesse Michels returns for a sprawling conversation on the strange overlap between UFOs, consciousness, and the hidden esoteric currents running beneath modern science. 🥰 Support TED and join the community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thirdeyedrops Get access to our Youtube Member's Library: https://www.youtube.com/@THIRDEYEDROPS/membership We explore the “occult roots” of the space age — from Jack Parsons and the mythic imagination behind rocket culture, to the darker shadow of WWII German occultism, secret history, and the idea that advanced technology may have always been entangled with ritual, symbolism, and altered states. Along the way we get into Puharich, the Space Kids, psychic research, synchronicity, and why the UFO landscape is equal parts genuine inquiry and engineered confusion. We also riff on the centrality of consciousness, esoteric orders and mysterious cosmic ascent rituals. If the phenomenon isn’t just hardware in the sky, but something that interacts with perception itself, what does that imply about reality, human evolution, and the deeper truths of reality. Topics include: UFOs & consciousness, esotericism and space exploration, Jack Parsons, Nazi occultism, Puharich and psychic experiments, ancient wisdom and advanced tech, cosmic ascent, disclosure, misinformation, synchronicity, and the afterlife mystery.
