What happens in the brain during a mystical experience? In this episode we explore the neuroscience behind states of transcendence, unity, and awe — examining what brain imaging and clinical research reveal about humanity's most profound inner experiences.

We look at what these states tell us about the nature of consciousness, and what implications they hold for AGI alignment and the question of machine experience.
