Conscious Observers with Jordan Crowder

Can AI Have a Soul?

Most people would probably laugh at that question.

But what if we're asking the wrong question?

Instead of asking whether AI can become conscious, what if we asked something much more interesting:

If we were designing an intelligent being from scratch... would it eventually need something like a Higher Self?

In this episode of Conscious Observers, Jordan Crowder explores a thought experiment that connects artificial intelligence, robotics, consciousness, reincarnation, mythology, and the future of human evolution.

As AI becomes more advanced, we'll eventually face a fascinating engineering problem: when one intelligent robot reaches the end of its life, should the next version start over from scratch—or inherit the wisdom of everything that came before?

That single question opens the door to ideas that have fascinated humanity for thousands of years.

Could a Higher Self simply be accumulated wisdom?

Why would a memory wipe actually make sense?

Could the Akashic Records function like a universal archive?

And what if ancient myths and archetypes weren't just stories—but humanity's original way of compressing wisdom into symbols that could survive across generations?

This episode isn't about proving reincarnation or consciousness. It's about exploring whether the same design principles might naturally emerge whenever an intelligent system learns, evolves, and passes knowledge forward.

Can AI have a soul?

Would advanced AI eventually need a Higher Self?

The "Robot Reincarnation" thought experiment

Why wisdom is more valuable than memory

Information vs. wisdom: the missing piece

Why a memory wipe may be an elegant design feature

The Higher Self as accumulated wisdom across lifetimes

The Akashic Records as a universal archive (thought experiment)

Mythology and archetypes as compressed wisdom

How humanity is collectively training AI

What building intelligent machines may reveal about human consciousness

Could consciousness simply be a system that transforms experience into wisdom?

The Secret Partnership That Changed Consciousness Forever | Robert Monroe, Agnew Bahnson & the Antigravity Mystery

What if one of the greatest consciousness pioneers in history wasn't working alone? Long before the Monroe Institute, Hemi-Sync, and the Gateway Experience became world-famous, Robert Monroe found himself at the center of an extraordinary partnership with wealthy inventor and gravity researcher Agnew Bahnson Jr.—a man obsessed with antigravity, advanced propulsion, and the deepest mysteries of reality.

As we began digging into Monroe's books, Bahnson's personal papers, forgotten history, and his little-known UFO science fiction novel The Stars Are Too High, an astonishing pattern emerged.

Was Bahnson simply helping Monroe's acoustic experiments...

Or were these men chasing two different paths to the exact same destination?

Spiritual Gravity vs Physical Gravity

In this episode of Conscious Observers Podcast with Jordan Crowder, we follow the evidence—from verified out-of-body experiences inside Bahnson Laboratories...to the mysterious arrival of T. Townsend Brown...to unexplained events surrounding Bahnson's death...to Monroe's incredible claim that he later reunited with Bahnson after death, where he found him still working on something he couldn't explain.

Along the way, an entirely new interpretation of antigravity begins to emerge.

Perhaps "escape velocity" isn't only about leaving Earth's gravity...

Perhaps it's about escaping something far deeper.

This may be one of the most fascinating—and least discussed—stories in the history of consciousness research.

In this episode:

Robert Monroe's astonishingly verified out-of-body visit to Bahnson Laboratories

The Van de Graaff generator incident that left everyone stunned

How Monroe's commercial acoustic research unexpectedly evolved into consciousness exploration

The hidden role Agnew Bahnson played in the birth of Hemi-Sync

The mysterious arrival of T. Townsend Brown at Bahnson Labs

Electrogravitics, gravity research, and the search for antigravity

John Wheeler, Bryce DeWitt, Oppenheimer, and the Institute of Field Physics

The strange timeline surrounding Brown's disappearance in 1958

The hidden symbolism inside The Stars Are Too High

The "Three Men" theory and why it may matter

Agnew Bahnson's fatal plane crash

The mysterious Twin Beech flyover witnessed at Bahnson's funeral

Robert Monroe hearing Bahnson's voice at the exact moment of his death..."Bob... you'll never believe what's happened since I've been here..."

Monroe's reunion with Bahnson after death

The mysterious platform and rigging in the nonphysical world

Why the platform was later found completely empty

The identity of "BB" and why many believe it refers to Agnew Bahnson and The continuing mystery of "AA"

Soul retrievals, integration, and Monroe's concept of "escape velocity"

The deeper connection between physical gravity and spiritual gravity

Could antigravity be both a technological breakthrough and a metaphor for consciousness itself?

If you've ever wondered whether consciousness and advanced physics are actually describing the same underlying reality from two different directions......this episode is for you.

Watch until the end. The final connection may completely change how you think about gravity, consciousness, life after death, and humanity's future.

How to safely have an Out of Body Experience

In this episode of Conscious Observers with Jordan Crowder, we explore Robert Monroe's personal instruction manual for having an out-of-body experience - the proper, safe and fastest way!

Drawing from Chapter 16, “Preliminary Exercises,” of Journeys Out of the Body, Jordan breaks down Monroe’s original step-by-step process for moving from ordinary waking consciousness into the mysterious state he described as mind awake, body asleep.

Long before the Gateway Experience became famous, Monroe was documenting the exact conditions, sensations, fears, and techniques involved in consciously separating from the physical body.

How to enter the mind awake, body asleep state

Why deep physical relaxation is the first critical step

What Monroe’s famous vibrational state feels like

Why fear can instantly stop the experience

How to practice moving the “second body”

Monroe’s lift-out and roll-out techniques

Why thought and intention become your steering system

Why beginners should remain close to the physical body

How to return to the body no matter what

How all this led to the Gateway process

Whether you call it astral projection, an out-of-body experience, or the exploration of nonphysical consciousness, Monroe’s method remains one of the most influential frameworks ever published.

This episode presents his process in a clear, practical way so you can understand exactly what he believed was happening—and how he learned to reproduce it intentionally.

What if the biggest thing holding you back isn’t your circumstances…

…it’s the character you’ve been unconsciously playing?

In this episode of Conscious Observers, I take you behind the scenes of my new Choose Your Character 21-Day Identity Transformation and walk you through all 21 days of the framework.

This isn’t a sales pitch. It’s a deep, transformational dive into the psychology of identity...rooted in Psycho-Cybernetics, neuroscience, and one powerful truth:

In life, we don't get what we want...we get what is in accordance with who we think we are.

We’ll uncover why most people never consciously choose their identity, how your self-image silently dictates your decisions, and how you can take back control by intentionally designing the person you’re meant to be.

Whether you’ve joined the challenge or you’re just waking up to the power of identity, this episode gives you a complete roadmap to reinvent yourself from the inside out.
