Summary

Some of the opinions expressed on certain topics in this interview do not reflect BatGap’s point of view. While this may be true of any of our interviews, we wanted to make a special point of it here since the opinions were stated rather emphatically. Hans Wilhelm has created over 70 short YouTube videos in which he explores and visually explains the dynamic of the universal laws. This ‘back of a napkin’ approach has been so appealing that his YouTube channel has more than 100,000 subscribers. Hans says, “My mission is to offer these videos to inspire viewers to question and explore spirituality and their own relationship to the universe.” He is the author and illustrator of over 200 books for all ages – including some together with Byron Katie. His books have sold over 40 million copies and are translated into 30 languages.

0:47.6	and you'll find them organized there under the past interviews menu.

0:56.3	and viewers. So if you appreciate it and would like to support it, there's a PayPal button on

2:10.0	books, nor does he ask for donations. He finances the videos out of his own earnings as an author
2:15.2	and illustrator. And Hans lives in Connecticut, not far from where I grew up and just around the corner
2:20.8	from where my band used to practice when I was 19 and 20 years old.
