Infinite Potential: A Filmmaker’s Journey into the World of David Bohm

with Paul Howard 

July 12 at 18:00 (CEST) for a 2-hour live session

Having just completed a film on David Bohm’s life, his incredible work in physics, philosophy and the nature of consciousness, the question that Paul asked himself was, how come I never before heard about this extraordinary man and his work?

He was the man Einstein called his ‘spiritual son’ and the Dalai Lama his ‘science guru,’ so why is it that the world hardly knows his name?

Paul Howard’s film is an attempt to answer that question, to shine a light into the world of Bohm and how making the film changed his life.

It’s a film he believes has the potential to change the world.
