1 DAY WITH PAPA L - Introducing...

Beckett

Considering himself a visitor, Papa L explains to his grandson's International Philosophy group how we are all spiritual beings visiting and having temporary human experiences. He puts into prospective our power over what we choose to embrace during our human life visit and how we can each get more than we want by using some of the most basic principles and practices ie., kindness, grace, understanding, gratefulness, appreciation. As the audience grows to the world's attention, he goes on to challenge everyone tuning in to study the Universal Laws for themselves. The challenge was accepted but not one person could dispute the results of the law of attraction. The discussion with Papa L became a larger-than-life experience for literary scholars, instructors and laymen. 
As he sat in his "BeCause" T-shirt, Papa L shared a unique perspective on energy, vibration, God, life, purpose and so much more. Inviting everyone to understand that, "cause and effect" is the only thing happening, you must consciously be the cause to create desired effects. 
Expressing no judgement of any one's beliefs, Papa L delivers, perhaps, the most needed conversation for humanity today.

Mindmasters (Gary Tiedmann...

Sandra Mantz

As algorithms become increasingly adept at accessing the human mind, they also become more and more powerful at controlling it, enticing us to buy a certain product or vote for a certain political candidate. Some of us say this technological trend is no big deal. Others consider it one of the greatest threats to humanity. But what if the truth is more nuanced and mind-bending than that? 
 
 
 
In Mindmasters, Columbia Business School professor Sandra Matz reveals in fascinating detail how big data offers insights into the most intimate aspects of our psyches and how these insights empower an external influence over the choices we make. This can be creepy, manipulative, and downright harmful, with scandals like that of British consulting firm Cambridge Analytica being merely the tip of the iceberg. Yet big data also holds enormous potential to help us live healthier, happier lives—for example, by improving our mental health, encouraging better financial decisions, or enabling us to break out of our echo chambers. 
 
 
 
With passion and clear-eyed precision, Matz shows us how to manage psychological targeting and redesign the data game.
