    Interview With Dr. Siddharth Ramakrishnan: The Neuroscience of Magic

    What happens when neuroscience meets magic? On the newest episode of The Veiled Path Podcast, I sit down with neuroscientist Dr. Siddharth Ramakrishnan, author of The Neuroscience of Magic, for a deeply insightful conversation about what occurs in the brain and nervous system when we engage in ritual, mystical experience, and magical practice. We explore his journey from neuroscience and a Hindu upbringing into Western magic, the neuroscience of ritual and “magical thinking,” the mysterious God Helmet, the sentience and consciousness of plants and animals, and whether centuries-old rituals might affect us differently than practices we create ourselves. We also venture into bigger questions about collective consciousness, mental health, spiritual experience, and whether science can help us better understand humanity’s persistent search for the divine. This is what The Veiled Path Podcast was created for: bringing science, spirituality, philosophy, and the occult into the minds of those seekers and emotive intellects that explore the unknown corners of the universe and the mind. 🎙️ Dr. Siddharth Ramakrishnan — The Neuroscience of Magic New episode of The Veiled Path Podcast — out now.
