| Conversations with History: Christof Koch |
 |
Host Harry Kreisler welcomes neurobiologist
Christof Koch for a discussion of what biology can
tell us about consciousness. He discusses the
framework for defining the problem which he
developed with Nobel Laureate Francis Crick. He
reflects on the ongoing revolution in our
understanding of the brain and how technology is
impacting the transformation of our neuronal
correlates of consciousness. He also discusses
the implications of his research for our
understanding of man's place in the universe.

| Christof Koch: Consciousness Pt. 1 |
 |
"Dr. Christof Koch has been teaching at the
California Institute of Technology since 1986.
Prior to that he spent four years at the MIT
Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.
His laboratory, K-Lab, focuses on experimental and
computational research pertaining to the
biophysics and neurophysiology of neurons, and the
neuronal correlates of selective visual attention,
awareness and consciousness in the mammalian
brain. For over 16 years, he collaborated with the
late Dr. Francis Crick on discovering the neuronal
correlates of consciousness in the primate brain.
This research has made its way into a book for a
general scientific audience, The Quest for
Consciousness. The book discusses the Crick-Koch
framework for how consciousness, the subjective
mind, arises out of the flickering interactions
within the neurons of the cerebral cortex and
related structures. His research on understanding
the biophysical mechanisms underlying computation
at the level of synapses, channels, and membranes
has led to the book: Biophysics of Computation. He
has co-edited several collections: Methods in
Neuronal Modeling, Large-Scale Neuronal Theories
of the Brain, and Visual Attention and Cortical
Circuits. He has authored over one hundred
technical articles on neuroscience, and has
numerous patents in the area of analog VLSI vision
chips (smart vision chips). He is associated with
the Association for the Scientific Study of
Consciousness and loves to climb mountains.
Dr. Koch studied physics and philosophy at the
University of Tübingen in West Germany. He was
awarded his Ph.D. in biophysics (minor in
Philosophy) from the Max Planck Institute for
Biological Cybernetics in Tübingen in 1982 (under
Profs. Valentin Braitenberg and Tomaso Poggio)."

| 'Christ of Kashmiris' by Anand Krishna |
 |
This is the teasers of the newly published book of
Jesus Christ's crucifixion and His
post-crucifixion life in Kashmir, India,
excellently written by Indonesian spiritualist
Anand Krishna with a great introduction by Sufi
Prof. Haji Fida Mohammad Khan Hassnain.
ALL ROYALTIES FROM THIS BOOK WILL BE DONATED TO
SUPPORT THE TIBETAN CAUSE
Anand Krishna does not dwell on the "pros and
cons" regarding the historicity of Jesus, rather
on the relevance of Jesus' teachings in modern
times.
He not only discusses Jesus, Muhammad, Khidr,
Jhulelal, the Mahabarata war, the 9/11 tragedy and
the Bali bombing, but also the roots of terrorism
and offers a solution.
He believes that "love is the only solution" and
this book is a running commentary to that end. In
the pages of this "must read" book, he shares his
experiences with love. This very important book
reveals what no author before him has revealed.
WARNING! THIS BOOK IS VERY SUBJECTIVE.
It begins with the acknowledgment of Jesus'
divinity, Who is known as Saint or Prophet Isa by
the Tibetans and the Sufis, and as Sage Yuzu Asaph
by the Kashmiris. If you doubt it, then this book
may not be for you!
