Fritjof Capra: Patterns of Connection

Join us for a virtual conversation with Fritjof Capra to discuss the evolution of his thought. In the late 1950s Capra read the work of Werner Heisenberg, a founder of quantum mechanics, and quickly intuited connections between the discoveries of quantum physics and the traditions of Eastern philosophy. The result was his bestselling book, The Tao of Physics. His synthesis, which dispensed with the mechanistic worldview of Descartes and Newton in favor of a systemic, ecological one, has provided him with a different perspective on the life sciences, ecology and environmental policy.

Six decades later, Fritjof Capra remains at the crossroads of physics, spirituality, environmentalism and systems theory. Organized thematically and chronologically, the essays in Patterns of Connection document his revolutionary and far-reaching intellectual journey.

Founded in 1903, The Commonwealth Club of California is the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum.

Ilarion Merculieff discusses Mother Earth's message regarding global challenges, its implications, and the actions Indigenous Elders advise. He highlights that despite numerous environmental organizations, Earth's life support systems are failing, urging us to examine root causes and realign our approach, as "business as usual" is unsustainable.

With over forty years of experience serving the Unangan (Aleut) and other indigenous peoples, Merculieff is a passionate advocate for indigenous rights and a harmonious relationship with Mother Earth. An award-winning consultant, he leads the Global Center for Indigenous Leadership and Lifeways and advises the World Wilderness Congress. The discussion is moderated by Andrei Gheorghe.
