“THE whole order of nature evinces a progressive march towards a higher life. There is design in the action of the seemingly blindest forces. The whole process of evolution with its endless adaptations is a proof of this.”
– H. P. Blavatsky, The Secret Doctrine 1:277
Merlin Sheldrake talks about his new book The Entangled Life, mushrooms, ecology, consciousness and Our Relationship With Nature.
“Fungi throw our concepts of individuality and even intelligence into question. They can change our minds, heal our bodies, and even help us remediate environmental disaster. By examining fungi on their own terms, Sheldrake reveals how these extraordinary organisms – and our relationships with them – are changing our understanding of how life works.” –

Merlin Sheldrake is a biologist and a writer with a background in plant sciences, microbiology, ecology, and the history and philosophy of science. He received a Ph.D. in tropical ecology from Cambridge University for his work on underground fungal networks in tropical forests in Panama, where he was a predoctoral research fellow of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute.
Merlin’s research ranges from fungal biology, to the history of Amazonian ethnobotany, to the relationship between sound and form in resonant systems. A keen brewer and fermenter, he is fascinated by the relationships that arise between humans and more-than-human organisms. He is a musician and performs on the piano and accordion. Entangled Life is his first book.

Thank you for this post, TW, just wonderful. Our Young Sheldrake is fresh, new air to breathe! Just adorable…exciting to see him take up the mantle. We all know his esteemed father, Rupert Sheldrake has quite the sense of humor, no doubt having some say in naming him Merlin, yet you can easily sense how fitting it is, the absolute sincerity of it, he’s brilliant.For this student, who’s own little realm is the performing arts, this realm is so amazing! One definitely feels like Alice, 😆 Our New Age Mother HPB, and her Secret Doctrine, opens doors to these worlds, and it is very exciting. Thank you, and NAMASTE!
