want to share your story, your research? well, we want to hear all about it!

Our Mission is to join hands and hearts to explore those big, eternal questions: who are we, where did we come from, and where are we going? How do we make sense of our world, and our place in it? Our goal through conversation with the leading edge is to expand our worldview, and look into the inner workings of Nature, our Universe, ourselves, our long history of art, innovation, cultures and shifting paradigms. This is a quest shared by us all: to shape our own worldview, and help usher in a new story, and to right our collective path.  

 

Our Guests offer their unique piece of the Grand Puzzle of Life, from the personal quest that jumpstarted them on their life’s path, to their research and observations. We cover a wide range of disciplines, from the arts and sciences, the micro and the macrocosm, and everything in-between. It’s a big universe out there, so we go exploring!

 

Our World-Wide Community always has insightful comments and questions to pose in the second hour. Here’s where the “aha moments” await! Zoom allows us to extend our live reach, and our weekly and monthly newsletter is emailed to over 5,000 members of our vibrant, growing international community — the majority in the US and Canada, also Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Egypt, Turkey, Singapore, South America and more. While several academics attend, and speak, at our Sundays, our talks are for a general audience, for educational, non-commercial purposes. And, for the joy of engaging in scintillating conversation with fascinating people, as we ‘move the dial with dialogue’.

 

Your Hosts Laura Lee & Paul Robear, husband-wife team, come with a media background, so you are in good hands! Laura hosted a popular nationally-syndicated radio talk show, interviewing over 3,000 guests, while Paul produced leading-edge books and videos. ee, Paul developed a media company,  Seven Directions Media Inc., which included a publishing company that sold over a hundred-thousand books, videos, and audio books and a D2C mail-order bookstore with international distribution.

 

Now as Directors of the Cuyamungue Institute (CI), Paul and Laura say: “We recognize that to thrive as an educational 501-c-3 non-profit research organization, is to keep growing and broaden the scope of our work. We look at our research into ancient indigenous art worldwide, research begun by CI’s founder, anthropologist Dr. Felicitas D Goodman in 1978, in the larger context. We are thankful for the many conversations with our guests, researchers in brain-mind science, archaeology, archaeoastronomy, eco-spirituality, ecology, philosophy, psychology, psychoacoustics, ethnomusicology, mythology, shamanism, ritual, the heroes journey, the roots of theatre, deep history, art history — and much much more, who help us do just that.”
