Two Paths Podcast Troy A Haines
-
- Technology
Dating back to when we were primates and first used a stick to get at fruit on a branch outside our reach, we’ve progressively used tools and technologies in more sophisticated ways to extend our abilities. That’s no different to today as we progressively explore tools, techniques and technologies to realise ever increasing levels of performance and potential.
We are fast approaching a convergence point where exponential technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Neurotech, BioTech, Virtual & Augmented Reality (among others) will blur the lines between artificial and the real, and between the virtual and the real.
In addition as meditation becomes more mainstream, many are experiencing a greater disidentification with the mind made concept of self, the trauma and conditioning which keeps us small, being replaced by an alignment with our seed of potential within.
And furthermore the subsequent psychedelic renaissance that is unfolding is set to expand our awareness of who and what we are...individually and collectively in ways that we can’t even imagine from this current point in time.
Two Paths is an exploration of two narratives (the pink path and the grey path) into the fundamentals of wellbeing, performance optimisation, human potential and potential beyond human. The pink path in our organic capacity and, the grey path the integration & augmentation with technologies as part of the emerging transhuman, post human movement
The Two Paths podcast is where we have these conversations, exploring the opportunities that are unfolding and providing an evidence based approach as we interview leaders in science and research, wellbeing & performance optimisation, technology entrepreneurs & innovators, leaders in consciousness and those at the forefront of psychedelic research, among many others relevant to wellbeing, performance and potential.

Tech for dreaming - Lucid Dreaming on Demand with Brian Gilan
Troy is joined by Brian Gilan as they explore everything from the Oura Ring as a market technology for measuring and optimising sleep to dropping deep into the lucid dreaming space… What is it? How do you do it? Why would you want to do it? What does the dreamscape show us about our waking reality and is our waking state a dream?
Our discussion unfolds beautifully as we discuss what a utopian future might look like. I hope you enjoy this conversation with Brian as much as I did. -
The Light and Dark of Technologies inc AI (Ascended Intelligence) with Rak Razam
Troy is joined by Rak Razam for a discussion of all things technologies and consciousness from meditation, psychedelics, metaverse, AI (artificial intelligence or ascended intelligence) as tools for the development of a utopian future. As technology continues to evolve exponentially how does humanity ensure that we are creating a future that is desirable for all. Who are we really and what can we become?
Our discussion unfolds beautifully as we look backwards before looking forwards into what a utopian future might look like.

The Intersection Between Technology and Consciousness with Troy Haines
Troy introduces the Two Paths Podcast. Is technology taking us into a desirable future? Are we in control of ourselves? What does the future of technology and consciousness look like? Will we still be human in the future?
As I learn about the advances and application of technologies along with evolving human consciousness, the two paths podcast shares the progression of my learning as I lean into a future that integrates technology and consciousness… I’ll share interviews with experts in both technology and consciousness as we explore – what are we evolving into?
