Jeffrey Kripal and The Super Natural

4/7/2016

Jeffrey Kripal, scholar of comparative religion at Rice University, and Whitely Strieber, the famous writer and abductee, have recently published a ground-breaking book on the supernatural and what it means for our understanding of reality. Kripal has long been an advocate of bringing the paranormal "back to the table" in academic debate, and he has a lot to say on just how this should be done. In this interview from 2011, Kripal discusses how anomalous phenomena came to be banished to the realm of popular media, and underscores our need for a "new way of knowing" in order to grasp the complexity of the supernatural. Read the interview, read the book:
