Summary
New York Times best-selling author and scientist Gregg Braden explains the bridge between science and spirituality and what it reveals about our true nature as humans. Gregg sets the stage by describing the most pressing issue we face as a species right now: the battle for our own humanity.

| 0:00.0 | There's a battle playing out for our very humanness. |
| 0:03.1 | It sets the context for every event that is unfolding in our world. |
| 0:08.7 | There's something deep within each of us so powerful, so precious, that nations will go to war with other nations to keep us distracted. |
| 0:18.4 | There is a movement to replace our bodies with synthetics, chemicals in the |
| 0:23.1 | blood, sensors under the skin, computer chips in the brain, artificial intelligence. It steals from us, |
| 0:28.6 | our ability to access this part of us. We're about to give our humanness away to the technology |
| 0:33.7 | before we even know what it means to be fully human. And we are more than we've been led to believe. |

| 1:31.4 | And he's one of the most prominent, pivotal thought leaders, I personally believe, |
| 1:36.4 | for giving context of where we're currently at right now in terms of humanity, where we come from, |
| 1:42.2 | where we're going. And this conversation is going to be filled |
| 1:44.7 | with reflections on transhumanism, the fight for our own divinity and humanity. We're going to be |
| 1:53.6 | exploring the possibility of where we came from, ancient civilizations, and much, much more. |
