About this Event

An Evening with Alan Lightman

Gazing at the stars, falling in love, or listening to music, we sometimes feel a transcendent connection with a cosmic unity and things larger than ourselves. But these experiences are not easily understood by science, which holds that all things can be explained in terms of atoms and molecules. Is there space in our scientific worldview for these spiritual experiences?

Join the acclaimed MIT physicist and author of Einstein’s Dreams, The Transcendent Brain, and The Accidental Universe, Alan Lightman, for an conversation around how we can bridge the gap between the arts, spirituality, and science.

Co-sponsored by the Stanford Storytelling Project and the Stanford University Speaker's Bureau.
