RadicalChangeGroup: Reality Tunnel podcast

Check out this great podcast about reality tunnels at Radical Change Group: You can stream the podcast here or download it.

Reality tunnel is a term coined by Timothy Leary and popularised by Robert Anton Wilson. The theory states that, with a subconscious set of mental “filters” formed from their beliefs and experiences, every individual interprets this same world differently, hence “Truth is in the eye of the beholder”.
