Hope at last for mankind.
Myke McCormick
If humans were instinctively cooperative why would we, have conflict with those instincts?
I think it more likely we have always been both or at the least, the capacity to express both. And not only express both but encourage encourage and rationalize both aspects.
Annie
Thanks for your question and thoughts Myck. The biology presented is absolutely fascinating but there’s much to absorb. Instincts are naturally selected orientations not understandings of cause and effect. Therefore, no matter their particular orientation, instincts are going to be against any divergent behaviour. Our instincts are to be loving and cooperative, but the point is that these loving and cooperative instincts are, like any instincts, hardwired, they are rigid, and so they are in effect intolerant of any non-instinctive behaviour. And so, when our conscious mind wrested control from our instincts and began its search for understanding (as Jeremy explains in the Adam Stork story) “Adam’s instincts realise he has strayed off course they are going to criticise his deprogrammed behaviour and dogmatically try to pull him back on his instinctive flight path! In effect, they are going to condemn him as being bad.” Jeremy explains this in greater detail in FREEDOM ch 3:3 pars 247-248. He also explains that having loving instincts, as opposed to something like a bird’s flight path, actually made our human situation so much worse, describing it as a ‘double and triple whammy’ (see FREEDOM ch 3:5). At last we can understand our contradictory behaviour and resolve the deep conflict within us!

Powerful Message which everyone needs to hear. Thanks
Hildegard Daumuller
Very interesting. Hope Humanity is willing to cooperate united towards World-Peace
Susan
It’s great to have your interest Hildegard! There is much to think about and absorb in this introductory presentation but as Jeremy explains since our species’ divisive behaviour is due to a psychosis, that divisive behaviour can be cured with healing understanding. That is incredibly exciting news, because with understanding we can finally end our psychologically troubled human condition and legitimately return to a cooperative way of living. So, in a world fast going crazy from the effects of the human condition, this is the now desperately needed reconciling understanding that brings about a new world free of the agony of the human condition. As our FAQ 1.6 summarises it actually ends our upset behaviour and thus brings the long-hoped for lasting peace to the human race!
LorXena
Thank you for bringing a better understanding of the human condition and what we must strive to seek to heal within while sharing with others so that they may also embrace a more gentle and cooperative way of living.
Anaemaia Vocito
Wonderful just what we needed simply explained

explained in such an easy understandable way thank you
Alexandra Addams
Had to listen twice, and read the chapters slowly to take it in because it made so much sense i thought i might misunderstand and this is just fascinating and i hope more people read about this. Thank you
Annie
It is the most fascinating information Alexandra and everyone certainly needs to access it so your comment is much appreciated! As is mentioned in THE Interview we’ve had to live in denial of our psychologically upset human condition while we couldn’t explain it so it makes sense we need to re-visit the explanation a few times to access it. This is termed the ‘deaf effect’ and is the subject of Video/Freedom Essay 1 titled ‘Your block to the most wonderful of all gifts’. After THE Interview, we recommend people watch or read Video/Freedom Essays 1-14 and 14 on our homepage, as together they provide a concise summary of the key understandings of the human condition. You can subscribe to our free mailing list to receive all Freedom Essays here. (You might also like to read the reply to Alan’s comment below which includes more information about this initial Deaf Effect.)
Diana McIntosh
Fascinating!
Callum Poklington
The 12step program of NA not AA, is the look at the belief system and not the substance. It is also not religious but spiritual. In conjunction with your treatise it offers a way to live in harmony while free from the burdons of guilt, remorse and shame which I guess in essence is some of what you propose too. Most addicts, I’ve found, felt apart from society without knowing why. You offer a solution to that question which brings hope. For that I am immensely grateful to you. I go to war with my brain on a daily basis as do most addicts, in recovery or not, this is trying and fruitless. It drains energy and creates stress. A life not worth living is the feeling often associated with this existence.
You offer hope in the guise of an explanation of our condition, I get that now, thank you. For you efforts, time patience and perseverance I thank you.
Hope is such a huge thing to an addict especially one in recovery..
Callum Poklington
I love this, simple to understand and free! I’ve always felt apart from society. I care. I ended up a heroin addict, no excuses here. I love everyone and can’t understand why everyone doesn’t feel the same. You explain why...
WTM Admin
Yes Callum the human condition has caused so much unbearable suffering and isolation for humans it has been a deeply tragic reality. The core breakthrough of Jeremy Griffith’s explanation of the human condition is we no longer have to be burdened by the fundamental question of whether we are good or bad because our core goodness as individuals and as a species has been biologically established. We can know our psychological upset was the price humans had to pay for searching for knowledge and that the human story presents the greatest, most heroic story ever told. So we can now look after ourselves with great compassion and kindness and we don’t have to overly confront the upset within us (as FAQ 1.19 summarises).
علی Alida
So far as I understand it, I enjoyed and believe it must be spread all over the world.
Arcindo Rodrigues
I appreciate this audio book that is so unbelievable, I love it!
Thomas Due
For some years I have been researching upon some of the same thoughts. How liberating to see how large these truly good ideas already have become within a parallel track – Thanks Jeremy! … and all the rest of you for seeing the same light.
Tony M
It’s great to have your interest Thomas and thank you for your feedback. Yes, this understanding is all-liberating because it finally relieves us of the great burden of the human condition we have all had to carry until now. Our Video/Freedom Essay 4 discusses that while many have identified the elements of instinct and intellect involved in creating the human condition, the great breakthrough Jeremy’s treatise provides is the clarifying explanation of the nature of the conflict between them and explains without that explanation the conflict could not be resolved. (I’m sure you will find this essay, and also its companion F. Essay 53 most fascinating.) This really is the holy grail of the whole human journey of conscious thought and enquiry no less! As Professor Harry Prosen expresses in his Introduction to FREEDOM in par 3: “Jeremy provides that great unifying, make-sense-of-everything synthesis—for not only does his treatise explain the human condition—our species’ capacity for what has been called ‘good’ and ‘evil’—his ability to plumb the great depths of this most foreboding of all subjects has meant that he has also been able to provide the fully accountable explanation of the other great outstanding mysteries in science”
Terrance Scott
How long do you think it will take mankind to start healing itself from all the trauma it has placed on itself?
WTM Admin
Jeremy’s instinct vs intellect explanation of the human condition does lift the ‘burden of guilt’ from the human race. It establishes that while we are all inevitably variously upset from our encounters with humanity’s heroic battle to find understanding of our corrupted condition, we can now know that every human is fundamentally good. That is the key relieving understanding we have been in search of ever since we became conscious some 2 million years ago and our corrupted condition emerged. So in terms of humanity’s rehabilitation it will be a generational process but this key understanding brings immediate psychological relief to our minds and from there we start to heal. This is explained in our FAQ 1.4 and you might also like to read Hannah’s comment and reply to her below. As Craig Conway says in THE Interview “the truth of our fundamental goodness is the truth that we needed to set us free from the human condition”!
Katarzyna Szumska
Thank You, since I have been questioned if I can imagine the world with loving and supporting way,- for 1 year I am trying to imagine that world, I believe we can manifest that.
It is remarkable and I wish to share it in different languages please (polish).
Dostoevsky (I would like to know, which publication describe that please)
So thankful for that, it gives us relief and Letting GO
Annie
Finally, with understanding of the human condition Katarzyna, we can at last not just imagine but actually live in support of and help bring about the transformation of the world when, as Jeremy Griffith writes in FREEDOM ch 9:8, par 1217: “And what did that truth-saying prophet John Lennon ‘imagine’? A time when the human condition is resolved and ‘the world will be as one’, when there will be ‘no heaven [above us and] no hell below us’; when, in essence, there will be a world without the condemning differentiation of good and evil, a world liberated from the insecurity of the human condition and thus the need for religion, where, as Lennon sang, there will be ‘Nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too…all the people living life in peace…No need for greed or hunger, a brotherhood of man…all the people sharing all the world’ (Imagine, 1971).” You must read chapter 9 of FREEDOM titled ‘The Transformation of The Human Race’ Katarzyna because it wraps us up in relief and shows us how we can let go of our upset and embrace freedom! That’s why I think it is the best chapter of the best book ever written!
The sublime passage from the great Russian novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky that Jeremy quotes in THE Interview is referenced there as from Dosstoevsky’s short story The Dream of a Ridiculous Man written in 1877.
We do have THE Interview, and other WTM publications, translated into Afrikaans, Dutch, French, German and Spanish. Unfotunately we don’t yet have any Polish translations but keep an eye on our homepage www.humancondition.com where, below the ‘Main Videos’ there is a ‘Translations’ button, which shows all our translations at any given time.

thank you............
Hannah
Jeremy,
Thank you for all the study and thought and hard work you have put into this! I have just now been introduced to your work and your viewpoint. I am a social worker and counselor. My mind is racing with all the ramifications of this simple but huge revelation. Do you think that, having functioned in this upset state with wrong-headed truth and denial so prevalent for so long, this state is now part of our genetic imprint? That perhaps even though able to see differently, we are most prone to act in harmony with an archetype of angry alienation? Humans adore the status quo and no matter how irrational and painful, many will cling to it. Some will stubbornly cling to indoctrination, others to denial of the ability to think. There will be many barriers to change. Thank you for starting us down the path, however long. You have given me a great deal of hope - a precious thing to an old woman.
Annie
Thank you so much for your appreciative and thoughtful comment Hannah. Yes as Jeremy writes in FREEDOMpar 241, “while the crux question facing the human race, of the much-needed clarification of the nature of ‘good and evil’, does have an amazingly simple answer, the implications of it could not be more significant, far-reaching or exciting” so it’s no wonder your mind is racing! There is a lot to absorb and adjust to as this explanation does present the ultimate paradigm shift no less.
Most significantly Jeremy explains humans’ angry and alienated behaviour is not a product of unchangeable savage animal instincts within us, but the result of a psychosis, caused by the clash between our instinct and intellect, and a psychosis IS changeable as it can be healed through understanding. As he explains in FREEDOMch 8:16E, there is some genetic adaptation to upset, but it is miniscule compared with our all-loving instinctive soul, developed over the millions of years that we were living lovingly and cooperatively before the human condition emerged. To quote the end of that chapter “Even the upset that is now instinctive, in our genes, will not be an issue because when our capacity to love is finally liberated, as it can now be, it will effectively make all our upset—both psychological and instinctive—disappear without a trace. It is all history now” So this transformation is certainly happening! Just look at the incredible Commendations on our homepage and also our fabulous Transformation page—both are a must-visit!
Yes humans find change difficult and the current paradigm will resist so, as with any new scientific breakthrough in history, it will take time for people to realise this IS the great breakthrough in understanding ourselves. But with more support—through people such as yourself recognising the importance of this information—our capacity to love will solve our problems very quickly (see our FAQs 1.4–1.6). Thank you again Hannah (and this all-reconciling-and-relieving information makes us youthful and alive again no matter our age!).
Zubair Mohammad Khan
I listened to jeremy with interest and curosity. I am sure soon we will be able to heal this psychosis with understanding

It’s super amazing to learn from outmost Jeremy, you are so brilliant !!! Thank you 🌈
Lori Frank
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. They’re brilliant and I believe do you have it right! I’m so excited for the human race to become in lightened.
The simplicity of it makes it hard to grasp so I’ll most definitely be watching again. Namaste 🙏

Mark Gigiel
I came here from an ad on YouTube. It’s the question I have had on my mind for a long time, so I clicked. I’m not as positive though. Because I think it may be too late to save ourselves. We have plundered the ecosystem to it’s limit and beyond and I believe it’s just a matter of time before complete collapse. NOTHING will change soon enough. I’m not knocking any of the video or research or books. I just think it’s too late. I want my glass to be half full instead of half empty. I just don’t see it.
Genevieve
Your pessimism about whether we can save ourselves is understandable Mark. All the problems we’re experiencing on this planet, aside from natural phenomenon, are caused by us humans and it’s the underlying issue of our destructive behaviour that has to be understood if we are to solve the world’s problems—we certainly need answers and we need them urgently! There is a quote in FREEDOM ch 1:2 about humans needing “psychological maturity fast. We are locked in a race between self destruction and self discovery” to which Jeremy responds “Yes, our species has come to the critical juncture where ONLY ‘self discovery’—reconciling, ameliorating, ‘psychological[ly]’ healing understanding of ourselves—could save us from ‘self destruction’.” We urge you to re-visit THE Interview, and I’m sure you will begin to see that what Jeremy is presenting is actually that desperately needed reconciling understanding. Our FAQs about the human condition and how it can be resolved are an excellent resource.
Also, you might find Jeremy Griffith’s Freedom Essays about ‘Do we fail or do we make it?’ fascinating, see F. Essays 55—58. These present a fearless hard hitting analysis of the state of the world followed by how the extraordinary transforming power of this information can save the world. The significance of the explanation of the human condition takes some time to absorb as humans do have an historic fear of the whole subject (see F. Essay 1), but the more you do absorb it, the more you realise just how all-reconciling and solving it is and that all our deepest dreams have come true. All our glasses are actually overflowing now with lasting and transformative solutions, real joy and happiness can return to the human species!
Damon Isherwood
What a presentation! This is so concise, and yet all-encompassing.
De De Smith
Explained at last where it makes sense and is understandable
Carole KOHL-DUGGAN
Very enlightening and moving! Thank you! It reminds me of the words of Christina von Dreien. We have all forgotten that we are all children( souls) of the light... Everything that is helping us to remember will solve our inherited problem. And the science of today has found in its new dimension of knowledge how to explain this to us. In gratitude Carole.
Annie
It’s wonderful to have your appreciative feedback Carole. What is so significant about Jeremy Griffith’s biological treatise is it actually answers the essential question of why, when the ideals are to be loving and selfless, are we so competitive and selfish? Why have we forgotten about the all-sensitive world of our soul? The fundamental problem the human race has always had is to explain or justify competitive, selfish and aggressive behaviour. That is what Jeremy finally explains with his instinct vs intellect explanation of the human condition and what is of unique importance to the survival of the world. As you say the science of today has finally found the much-needed knowledge to explain this which is indeed enlightening and moving because it floods the world with relief and freedom! The full significance of this explanation does takes time to absorb, but the more you do absorb it, the more you realise just how all-reconciling and liberating it is. Our FAQ 6.5 which explains the huge difference between Jeremy’s work and that of spiritual, new age movements may be of interest.
mohamed reda
You changed my life forever in your video I just watched , it gave me hope that it’s not to late to change the world . Thank you so very much for sharing that with all of us !! ❤️
Margaret J
My gut feeling about this is one of relief and strength and that maybe we can actually save the world. I am eager to investigate further and value this experience. I have told my family to watch this asap
Alan
Not really following this. What is it that I am forgiving myself for ? Or have I missed the point completely ?
WTM Admin
Hi Alan, the very nature of the human condition, the issue of whether we are fundamentally good or bad, means explanation of it can be initially difficult to access. It has been the most unbearably depressing and terrifying of subjects to face — why are we capable of such contradictory behaviour as to be selfless and loving but also selfish and destructive? Until that question could be answered, which it has in THE Interview, we have lived with a feeling of unworthiness, insecurity, shame and guilt and, necessarily, in almost total denial of the human condition, so it does take a while to fully appreciate the extent of our denial and the impact this can have on the way we respond to discussion of it.
Significantly, now our upset state is explained and defended, we can safely re-connect with the human condition in ourselves and the world and bring love or forgiveness to our dark side. In fact the more you digest the explanation, the more you understand that becoming corrupt was an immensely heroic state, not a shameful one.
It may help to watch/read Video/Freedom Essay 1 about this initial ‘deaf effect’ block to accessing discussion of the human condition and hopefully it will encourage your ongoing patience with this information. The summary in FAQ 1.16 might also be helpful.
Judith klu
Very true. Many thanks to Jeremy. God Bless him.
Ronald Bebout
You changed my life forever in your video I just watched , it gave me hope that it’s not to late to change the world . Thank you so very much for sharing that with all of us !! ❤️
You explained a lot of things that have been in my mind but I have never had the proper words to describe them . Now that we know the problem and the cause we need to figure out the solution .... and I hope you have some suggestions ... I will be passing this on to other people, this is so important that all world leaders should know about it . We need to incorporate this to the schools.... it’s incredible that we have been creating our own problems ! This world definitely needs to transform into something better ! The hate is getting out of control !
jaginder shergill
Wow, a book called course in miracles explains the human condition the same way. The two match almost completely but CIM describes it in spiritual way. Here its biological perspective. Thank you for the video.
Susan
We appreciate your interest Jaginder however to see the huge difference between what we are presenting and the ‘Course in Miracles’, you may find this comment on Video/Freedom Essay 9 by subscriber Lesley Davies helpful. Lesley said: “I can now see why A Course in Miracles didn’t work for me. I completed the 365 day course three years running to try and heal myself from deep depression and anxiety. After reading essay 15 and studying Freedom it becomes clear that without the explanation of WHY we are so upset ACIM can only act as a sticky plaster with the ’scream’ still going on underneath.” We also recommend our FAQ 6.5, https://www.humancondition.com/wtm-faq-is-this-new-age/.
Jw clink
Explain to me why are dark skined people are hated all over the world???
And, do you believe in God, or life after death?
Tony M
Thank you very much for your interest JW Clink. Significantly Jeremy Griffith’s breakthrough instinct vs intellect explanation of the human condition allows us to understand why the horror of racism has existed under the duress of the human condition and, most importantly, finally brings it to an end. This desperately needed reconciling understanding of the relationship between races is explained in Freedom Essay 28. And for a testimonial on the power of this information to end racism, we recommend watching/reading the presentation from Franklin Mukakanga, of Zambia, in Video/Freedom Essay 8. Although ultimately a fulfilment of religion (see FAQ 6.3), understanding of the human condition also finally makes it possible to explain and demystify religious concepts. In terms of understanding the theme or purpose or meaning of existence, and its personification as ‘God’ we would recommend Freedom Essay 23. And Jeremy explains and demystifies our need to believe in a physical ‘afterlife’ in par. 840 of FREEDOM and in more detail in this section of his 2003 book A Species In Denial.
Rachel
Complex yet a beautiful simplicity at the same time. What a feeling of hope.
IMAMDAD KARUM
If my understanding is correct,the human’insticts, is as ancient as human history itself,but the process of developing human consciousness is gradually,started from epoch of Adam and Eve,What about the realization and consciousness of the existence of the soul, as the human personality is the component of body, intellect, and soul.What is the first creation of God, Universe, body, Intellect Or soul??? Thanks a lot for the kind explainations from some one.
Monica
For an explanation of our all-loving, unconditionally selfless moral instincts or
soul and how we acquired it Imamdad please see Freedom Essay 21, and for an explanation of integrative meaning and its personification as ‘God’ please see Freedom Essay 23.

Paul Bennett
I gave an hour of my (shrinking volume of) life to this vid. I was determined that at the first mention of God, Christ, or anything overtly messianic, I would crash out. As it happens, I gave it some leeway due to the obvious Co Durham accent & (assumed) heritage of the host; (irrational, I know, but as a Darlington lad and a linguist, as well as aging hippie & devout atheist, I’m still not without harmless prejudice), but with still no mention of of anything religious or pseudo-mystical, I paused at the end of part 1, got some more beer, and continued.
It was worth the loss of an hour of the time left to me. In short, if you have an open mind, but not so open that it admits obvious bollocks, it’s worth looking at, if you have an interest in the overlap of philosophy, anthropology, ethics, behavioural psychology, the power-dynamics, and invention of, religion, paedogogy, and with filaments reaching out in loads of other directions. It’s a bit too evangelistic for my taste, and the touted book isn’t something I’d regard as essential to everyday life, like the Bible or the Little Red Book, or Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance were supposed to be, but given the fact that the vid’s purpose seems to be as an infomercial to direct the viewer to the accompanying website, it’s acceptable as such. Favourable references to two of my modern-day heroes, St-Exupéry & van der Post, only increase my interest in the subject.
I’d be interested to know what interested parties & recognised authorities in the field think/thought of the ideas espoused here. Sadly, we’ll never know the view of Prof Hawking, but the views of van der Post’s lifelong friend, HRH the Duke of Cornwall, Prof Steve Jones, and Prof Richard Dawkins would be, in my view, interesting and contributive.
I believe this synopsis to be fair & reasonable. I’m not a scientist or a specialist in any of the areas I mention - I’m actually a musician & linguist. But if your mind is sufficiently open to admit interesting new ideas, but not to allow your brain to drop out of the hole, this is definitely worth looking at, and subsequent to posting this message, I intend to access the the cited website.
Cheers, Paul The Same. If anyone is sufficiently interested to send me an email, they’ll be able to discover by trial & error my email address!
Susan
We greatly appreciate your interest Paul and encourage you to continue to investigate; it’s significance will only continue to grow on you. In fact, we suggest that the more you look into it, the more you will agree with Craig Conway and Professor Harry Prosen that this is a breakthrough of immeasurable importance to the human race.
Dennis Nash
It is very interesting that he does have a great understanding of the human condition, but needs to go to the next level and that is how did we get here where did this soul and body and the greater power come from, leaving out a Supreme Intelligence (God) and referring to creation in the Garden of Eden as the plausible of his understanding is a late level it explains our Good/Bad but does not explain why we are here. The Bible conveys the reason written in veiled old Testament and Actual new Testament reasoning for our existence. However it is a great insight into the human condition leaving out our reason for being.
Cheers, this is just a thought to provoke pre existence level via Supreme being. :)
Genevieve
Hi Dennis, you might be interested in our Freedom Essay (FE) series where Jeremy explains the other key biological explanations in more detail. Namely, ‘How we acquired our altruistic moral conscience’ in FE21; ‘Fossil discoveries evidence our nurtured origins’ in FE22; ‘Integrative meaning or “God”’ in FE23; ‘How did consciousness emerge in humans?’ in FE24 and ‘The truthful biology of life’ in FE25.

A revelation in every sense of the word. I hope for the sake of mankind that the whisper becomes a roar.
Having taken thousands of years to get to this point, it is nigh on impossible to imagine that we have enough time to make things right before the light is lost forever.
Where and how to start, when so many are not even aware that there is a question to be asked......
LJ
How excellent!! Thank you!! I wish everyone could see life this way!! I don’t appreciate the pull into politics at the very end!! LOL Thank you again!!
Margie
What a lovely and understandable explication of our inner soulful drive for Beauty and Peace. Thank you for giving me and others to see the light in this very dark place today.
Nomad
Watch this video. In one hour it doesn’t just explain the human condition, it untangles it, brings relieving understanding to it, solves it, heals it, puts it to rest, makes it all clear, liberates us, transforms us all, you name it, it bloody well does it. It is the most important video on the planet. Like the man says, if you just watch one video in your life, make sure this is it!
sarah
Patriarchy is the psychosis!
Rozee Cutrone
Current form of Capitalism reflects & supports competitive, agressive & selfish societies...angry egocentric & alienated. The conscious mind is a wonderful thing! Gnostics have known Adam & Eve were hero’s for thousands of years.
Tommy
Hi Rozee, I enjoy these topics you’ve raised! What I’ve learnt, and as Jeremy explains in this remarkable interview, is that there is the most magnificent reason for our angry, egocentric and alienated behaviour, all being by products of the corrupting but heroic search for knowledge. As you say the conscious mind is actually a wonderful thing, and this understanding only adds first principle biological evidence to that fact! Similarly as Jeremy touches on at the end, there is a really good reason for the right wing and capitalism, and although the whole world of politics can come to an end now with understanding, in the current political field the right wing actually held the high moral ground. This is further explained in the very enlightening Freedom Essay 34, will put link at the end, a must read!
In terms of the Gnostics, I’ve recently read Freedom again and Jeremy refers to that relatively sound religion in chapter 8, explaining that they emphasised self-knowledge. Again I’ll try to find the link and put it at the end as you will enjoy reading it. The huge difference from the days of the Gnostics and all religions is the truth about human life that they present is all from a pre-scientific view. Solving the human condition required finding the clarifying difference between the way the intellect and instincts work, and that is the great breakthrough that Jeremy Griffith has found (which is explained in the interview above). Again it is the biological proof for why Adam and Eve are the heroes of the whole story of life on Earth!

https://www.humancondition.com/freedom-less-guilt-emphasising-expressions-of-religion/
Susan
We disagree Sarah. At the heart of the explanation in THE Interview is the revelation that all our astonishingly selfish and brutal behaviour, especially on the part of men, has been an unavoidable consequence of humans’ necessary search for self-knowledge. The human condition has been a tragic situation and as Jeremy explains the rift that resulted between men and women has caused some of the deepest wounds in human life. Now we have understanding of our human-condition-psychosis which is shared by all humans, women are finally able to reason and see that what men have been doing on this planet has been actually the most meaningful and heroic job of all—and speaking from experience that is an absolute revelation! I will never forget when I first realised this, that men aren’t the monsters I thought they were, it literally did stop me dead in my tracks! Women have been the victims of men, we have been horribly oppressed and are now understandably very angry and resentful towards men. But as Jeremy always says, the question screaming to be asked is WHY have men oppressed women?! To finally have an answer to that is simply amazing and the rift between the sexes begins to heal at a rapid rate.
As molecular biologist Dr Anna Fitzgerald says in her commendation of Jeremy’s work: ‘because Griffith’s work establishes the equal worth or goodness of all humans we can now understand the different roles that men and women have traditionally played in the human journey and this is actually the unlocking point, this is what brings about deep empathy for each other, it heals the divide.’ You can watch/read this Video/Freedom Essay 9 titled This is the real liberation of womenhere.

Oh Wow I’m completely blown away. Feels like a big mountain just got moved out of the way in terms of human progress and I want to tell everyone! How good’s this!
Durstin Gray
Yes, it’s not pie in the sky . We can truly have it now.
The miss explanation we have lived with through religious control has ended and we can now live fully in FREEDOM. The word (SIN) is an old English word used by Archers in practice. Means, to miss the mark, and with Freedom explained we now cannot miss the mark. Durstin Gray.

ty awesome news for humanity
Noreen O' Shea
I just wanted to say Jeremy, I’m 55yrs old and speeking for my up bringing, it wasn’t right to be shown any kind of love, my brother and I were shown who was boss very early and didn’t speak out unless we were allowed and left with a lot of damage because off our up bringing, it was hell, we were beaten as if we were adults not very young children, I listened to what ye had to say, but I’m afraid it’s not that easy to get over it even at my age. Thank you for reading this.
Susan
We are very, very sorry to hear about the pain you and your brother have suffered Noreen and are very appreciative of your interest. The human condition has absolutely been such a deeply, deeply tragic journey full of so much unthinkable pain and suffering, especially for children, it really is almost too much to bare.
It certainly can be overwhelming trying to deal with the human-condition-afflicted suffering in ourselves and in the whole of the human race, but Noreen that therapy is now able to begin with the understanding that we now have of why it all happened, and from there we each, and the human race as a whole can work our way inwards to the core suffering within. So it is a process and as Jeremy says it’s going to take generations for all the anger and upset to subside and heal.
What is significant about this explanation is we don’t have to be burdened by the fundamental question we all have struggled with of whether we are good or bad anymore because our fundamental goodness as a species has been biologically established (which THE Interview and Video/Freedom Essay 3 summarises). That macro truth looks after all humans now and we can treat ourselves with great compassion and kindness and know that what happened to us as infants was not because we weren’t good enough or that we were unlovable but rather the human condition caused a level of upset in humans so great it gave them the capacity for such acts of violence. Our FAQ 4.2 about human ‘evil’ may also be helpful. To quote an extract, “At long last we have the reason for humans’ capacity for shocking acts of cruelty, sadism, hate, murder and warfare—we now know the source of the dark volcanic forces in us humans” but “Importantly, this understanding of why we became upset as a species does not condone or sanction ‘evil’, rather, through bringing understanding to humans’ upset behaviour, it gives us the power to ameliorate and thus subside and ultimately eliminate it—and, in the short term, to transcend all that upset and take up a transformed life in complete support of an anger, egocentricity and alienation-free world.”
It does take some time to absorb the significance of this information and it’s far-reaching implications so I hope you continue to explore our material as the more you absorb it the more you see that it will bring about the reconciled, loving world that you and your brother, and all children dream of. Further FAQs that we recommend are FAQ 4.1 about the transformation this information brings about and also FAQ 1.19 which explains that it can be very confronting and therefore destabilising on a personal level if people overly study the information or rush into it so that is something everyone should be mindful of and especially if you have a history of trauma or psychological instability.

If ti was that simple We all would be living in a ideal world.Powerfull governments will always keep the under dog down .I n His speach he has not mentioned how the poor will ever prosper Regards Peter Jennings
Monica
We totally agree Peter that this information must reach everyone, very much including those less fortunate, and we are doing all we can to make these world-saving insights universally available. We are still in the pioneering stages of gathering support for these all confronting but wonderfully liberating insights and it will take some time to break through the bastions of power in the world, and for people to realise that this is what it says it is, as with any new scientific breakthrough in history. However once this information gets a foothold through enough people developing a deep appreciation and desire to support it, the selfless love and energy that will generated will solve our problems very quickly because instead of being preoccupied with power, fame, fortune etc, all our energies will be freed to truly work together and focus on doing whatever it takes to end the suffering in all the corners of the world.
We do already have authoritative support, such as from arguably the world’s leading psychiatrist in Professor Prosen (see the commendations section on our website), a large and growing global subscriber base and over 40 WTM Centres all around the world (see this link), and in time we will attract more influential support which will in turn aid in helping those less fortunate to access this.
Adrea Easten
...if genius is “the ability to see the obvious” then this deceptively simple explanation of the role of the Ego in our evolution is ABSOLUTELY brilliant...I feel FREE, FREE, FREE...free of the dark confusion I’ve always felt because I could NEVER understand how ‘survival of the fittest’ allowed such a plethora of human misery-causing weakness to exist?! ... from the bottom of my soul, THANK YOU for sharing this with all of us 😍
BTW--this also may explain why so many people who care for intellectually disabled individuals ‘fall in love’ with their job? Not suggesting they are less evolved, just the opposite, as many of them do experience the prolonged nurturing you suggest may have helped us evolve.
Winnifred Wickwire
More art work needed of mothers nurturing their sons. If this is how woman help to understand the human condition , please make it well know for future mothers. The role of motherhood is very difficult & heartbreaking most of the time & very unrewarding . Many mothers just give up & let their sons do what they want, especially single mothers. Please promote Motherhood , please promote motherhood, through your posters. & clothing. I will try to do this also. Thank you, for this life changing information but I feels now hopeless for my grown upset children as they are now set in their ways .
Susan
It’s wonderful to have your interest in the WTM Winnifred and thank you for your suggestions and support.
As Jeremy explains in FREEDOM the crucial role that nurturing has played in the maturation of our species and continues to play in our individual upbringing today, has been another of those unbearable truths that humans couldn’t face until we could explain our divisive, unloving human condition. It has been a very difficult and heartbreaking situation as you describe. I would highly recommend you read ch 6:13 of FREEDOM which is titled, Nurturing now becomes a priority. There Jeremy explains that ‘now that we have found that very good reason why parents have been unable to nurture their children with anything like the unconditional love children instinctively expect and need, it is no longer necessary to deny the importance of nurturing both in the maturation of our species and in our own lives. Yes, with the arrival of understanding the terrible guilt that parents have felt for not being able to adequately nurture their offspring departs. Parents can now understand that their inability to adequately love their offspring is not their fault, but the product of the ever-accumulating levels of upset in the human race as a whole that resulted from our species’ heroic 2-million-year search for knowledge, specifically for self-knowledge, understanding of why we conscious humans are good and not bad. So yes, we can finally now admit the importance of nurturing and turn our attention back to the nurturing of our offspring—in fact, it now becomes a matter of great urgency that we do both these things.’
The innocence of children is absolutely devastated by the psychologically upset world of adults. Importantly however, it’s not what has happened to us in our lives so much as our inability to understand why it was happening that has been the problem. It’s been the terrible silence about the horror of the human condition that children have had to endure that is so devastating, and what leads to them to having to resign in their adolescence (you can read more about the process of Resignation in Freedom Essay 30).
What heals the world is the honesty that is now available — real therapy comes through understanding. We can talk to children about the unavoidable journey of the human condition and how corrupted we’ve become, and that honesty is what will heal their troubled minds. We have had to live in denial of the human condition, hide in Plato’s dark cave where no exposing light could reach us. But now that we have redeeming understanding that denial is no longer necessary and there are many unbearably confronting truths, such as our inability to nurture, that can be safely confronted now, leading to the repair of the whole human race.
Billy Hunt
Interesting.....but you still haven’t answered fully about the existence of true evil....as it certainly exists in people around the world!!!???
Susan
Thank you for your interest in the WTM Billy. Yes, the absolutely horrific psychologically upset state of the human condition has created an extremely frustrated and ferociously angry ‘dark side’ in humans, which has meant we are capable of ‘evil’ or terrible acts.
But to quote FAQ 4.2, 'what is so utterly exonerating and psychologically healing about our ability now to understand the human condition is that we can finally appreciate that there was a very good reason for our angry, egocentric and alienated lives—in fact, we can now see why our species has not just been ego-centric, but ego-infuriated, even ego-gone-mad-with-murderous-rage for having to live with so much unjust criticism/guilt, for some 2 million years. At long last we have the reason for humans’ capacity for shocking acts of cruelty, sadism, hate, murder and warfare—we now know the source of the dark volcanic forces in us humans.
And with the ability now to explain and understand that all humans are good and not bad, all the upset that resulted from not being able to explain the source of our divisive condition is able to subside and disappear. Finding understanding of the human condition is what rehabilitates and transforms the human race from its psychologically upset angry, egocentric and alienated condition.
Importantly, this understanding of why we became upset as a species does not condone or sanction ‘evil’, rather, through bringing understanding to humans’ upset behaviour, it gives us the power to ameliorate and thus subside and ultimately eliminate it—and, in the short term, to transcend all that upset and take up a transformed life in complete support of an anger, egocentricity and alienation-free world.’
Jackie Beattie
Humans are not heroes. Being conscious and Seeking knowledge has led only to us being the only species to destroy the planet with our greed despite us understanding cause and effect, whereas all other species contribute to the natural echo system.
Genevieve
Jackie, Jeremy explains that the reason humans are heroic is because our greed and selfishness was an unavoidable result of the development of our uniquely conscious mind. We had to suffer upset and become alienated from our soul’s true world in order to find understanding of ourselves. The horror of our human-condition-afflicted lives is unthinkable and yet we’ve continued on our journey to find understanding. With compassionate understanding found, we can know we are good, we can reconcile with our cooperative and loving instincts and the natural world, our destructive behaviour can come to an end and we can begin the much-needed repair of ourselves and our planet.
Jan Mehlenbacher
I had to listen to this because I’ve always believed we were brainwashed some how many many years ago putting this narsasistic and violent tendencies. Into our path to evelove into rash untrusting aggressive possibly down right violent behavior taught to us because of our openness to achieve knowledge. But this makes so much dahm sence I guess my problem is in ability to change what’s years of school have work so hard to brainwash us into believing. I’m afraid it has it hooks in to many. That won’t ever believe because it was pushed in school I wanna get behind this politics thing but when I’m trying actually to re and Invite myself for real its so cluttered and confusing but please put out more
Monica
It’s great to have your interest Jan! Yes in bringing understanding to the human condition, it brings compassionate and thus safe understanding to ALL of human behaviour, be it our individual lives, or politics and the whole democratic process, or religion, the relationship between men and women or different races etc. What you discover is this explanation unravels the seemingly impenetrable and insoluble confusion of human life and actually reconciles the polarities that currently exist — for instance the divide between the left and right wing in politics.
It can take some deeper digestion to see the full significance of at last being able to make sense of the great paradox of the human life, namely how we humans are good when we appear to be the complete opposite. But what it means is that now that our goodness has been scientifically established we no longer have to continue to try and prove ourselves, which was the source of all our selfish, egocentric behaviour, and can legitimately return to a selfless way of living — and this is the rapidly transforming effect of being able to understand the human condition. Our conscious thinking brain finally has knowledge/ explanation/ insight into our seemingly horribly flawed human condition, and given time to absorb it, our psychologically troubled human condition can come to an end.
After listening to THE Interview, we do recommend the series of introductory videos on our homepage.
Brian cooper
Finally some Enlightenment for the darkness many are living through.
Jo
But narcissistic psychopaths don’t see themselves as ill and go for help...
Genevieve
Thank you for your comment Jo. As Jeremy says in THE Interview above, finding understanding of the human condition brings to an end the insecure, upset, artificial-reinforcement-dependent angry, egocentric and alienated world and that includes those with extreme states of egocentricity known as psychopaths or power addicts. Jeremy explains the power addicted state, particularly in men, in chapter 8:16D of his definitive book FREEDOM. Amongst the founding membership of the World Transformation Movement there are power addicts who have freed themselves of their affliction by taking up the Transformed Way of Living. The affirmations of the Transformed State given by WTM founding members John Biggs and Sam Belfield are recommended viewing.
Colleen F
What a fantastic way to present and clearly hear the wonderful groundbreaking understandings from Jeremy Griffith. The conversation type questions and answers are perfect. Also, breaking these concepts down into 4 parts is a very helpful way to digest all the paradigm shifting information. Well done Jeremy, Craig and the WTM tech support crew in producing this for the world to hear.
Doug moffat
I thought I was the only one trying to change people thought, grate, always said something good was going to happen after all this , 😍🤗
Dennis Winters
The only problem I have with this theory is that the concept of humans having animal instincts has really only been around since Darwin’s Origin of Species. And the initial reaction to that theory was universally hostile. Religion, really , protected us from the truth of our origins , so the idea of people believing we were blighted by our animal instincts does not really hold water. Apart from that reservation, I think this explanation of the human condition makes sense. I thank you for sharing this .
Genevieve
We agree that people have used fundamentalist, literalist interpretations of religious scripture to account for human origins and our supposedly sinful state, however, as Jeremy explains about the story of the Garden of Eden, the truth of the original innocence of the human race is actually present in that story because the Garden of Eden is a metaphor for our species’ original innocent state. And as Jeremy describes in paragraph 194 of FREEDOM, humans have since time immemorial related our savage behaviour to the savage behaviour of animals; for example in 1850, which is before Darwin published ‘Origins’, Tennyson referred to humans as being “red in tooth and claw” like animals.
Pablo Fos Freire
Amazing and spot on
What I’ve always felt
But finally explained
Don’t read books much these days
Not since my daughter was smaller (and I’m really missing that) plus she’s dyslexic which was plus point for me because I got to read and improvise voices of characters so many times that I will always cherish and hopefully she’ll always remember.
However I will read the book and possibility recreate a connection with my daughter on a different lleve
Nick
What a superb presentation of this ground-breaking world-transforming first-principled biological simple-to-follow fair dinkum explanation of the human condition! I commend it to every person every where!
Ellen
Traditional hunter gatherer societies were mainly matriarchal or at least equal gender importance (also in the natural world is the bonobo example). It seems that with the rise of world religions and also rise of agricultural settled society and subsequent suppression of half the population in a patriarchal society - we can see where it all went wrong...
susy
The amazing thing about this information is that it actually defends men and their egocentric behaviour, and by so doing, allows the loving state we all want to come about. Certainly this breakthrough information explains all about our matriarchal history with the nurturing being the priority for our ancestors, prior to the human condition emerging, and yes the bonobos are a living example of that time. However once we became conscious two million years ago, and the human condition emerged, the priority changed to finding knowledge and that vital, and in fact very heroic role, fell to men and we changed to a patriarchal society. This includes all the traditional hunter gatherer societies. The really significant thing here Ellen is that this understanding of the HC makes sense of our upset, where it came from, why it has been unavoidable and that it actually is a very heroic and incredibly meaningful state. We have to bring understanding to our human situation to make any permanent and real change, and with this defence we finally can and all the pain and suffering that the HC has caused can come to an end. For a full explanation of the historical roles of men and women and how we are genuinely reconciled now through this understanding I would definitely recommend freedom essay 26, it’s fantastic! And for the differences in races and how this reconciles all races and cultures I would read freedom essay 28. I’ll put the links below

Tanya Edwards
It makes so much sense, and I found myself nodding along as he spoke.
It would be wonderful if the world acknowledged this and decided to accept this as the Truth. However, I think that even with the knowledge, you’d still get institutions like churches, corrupt governments, etc.. trying their level best to keep this truth from their flocks, citizens because we also have choice and being powerful and in control of thousands might overrule the need to live in love.
I’m definitely going to spend time on the website offered, and I also want to thank you for the free literature, and the great interview, brilliantly executed by Craig Conway.
Susan
It is wonderful to have your interest Tanya and we are very pleased you found THE Interview so enlightening!
You are right to be concerned about how we bring this understanding of the human condition to the world at large and we at the WTM are doing all we can to make these world-saving insights available to absolutely everyone. While this biological understanding of the human condition really is the universal solution to all the problems we face, it does have a slow start-up phase. It will take some time to break through the bastions of power in the world but once this information gets a foothold through enough people like you developing a deep appreciation and desire to support it, the selfless love and energy that will generated will solve our problems very quickly because instead of being preoccupied with power, fame, fortune etc, all our energies will be freed to truly work together and focus on doing whatever it takes to end the suffering in all the corners of the world.
And of course it will take a number of generations for all the anger and upset in the world to subside and heal but the point is we have the means now both practically and psychologically, to love our world. And it begins with those secure and functional enough in society to recognise that and make the ‘change of heart’ that understanding of ourselves allows, so that we can actually deal with the overwhelming, more extreme problems in our world in a functional manner. It’s the power of cooperative selflessness that Jeremy talks about in chapter 9:9 of FREEDOM, to quote para 1232: ‘Importantly, the more this understanding and associated transformation catches on, the easier it will be for people to move from the old insecure, ego-centric way of living to the new, secure, ego-less way of living. The egocentric way of living has had such a powerful hold on humans because without understanding of the human condition all that we had was the superficial reinforcement we gained from seeking power, fame, fortune and glory, but now that relieving understanding has been found then that old egocentric way of living will quickly lose its power—so quickly, in fact, that everyone will be amazed by how swiftly their need for and attachment to the old artificial forms of reinforcement falls away.’

Genevieve
It’s great to have your interest and support Maire, thank you. As you absorb all this further, you will begin to appreciate more deeply that this information actually defends the dark side of ourselves, and paradoxically, it was only this understanding that would allow us to put that destructive behaviour behind us.
With regard to the role of scientists, they, just like everyone have been suffering from the human condition which means we have all been living in fearful denial of it to cope. The whole scientific paradigm has been necessarily mechanistic and that does limit their ability to think truthfully about the human situation, but it did lead crucially to finding the essential workings of our world. This work is what was needed for a holistic thinker, such as Jeremy, to pull all the pieces together and solve the human condition once and for all.
All the traits you list such as competitiveness, egocentricity, commercialisation, hierarchy, racism, the destruction of the environment, anxiety, depression are just symptoms of the human condition which has been our necessarily upsetting but unavoidable journey to enlightenment. This finally brings understanding to our upset selves and world and brings so much incredible meaning to it, we can see that all the pain, suffering, dysfunction and disintegration of ourselves and society has all been for the most heroic reason. The reason humanity are ‘slaves to the system’ and in a ‘trance like robot state’ is all due to the human condition, the 2 million year conflict between our instincts and intellect. Bringing understanding to this conflict, this real psychologically redeeming, relieving and transforming explanation is what Jeremy has delivered, and what will end human suffering at its source, and unite the human race. So yes, we can truly ‘wake up’ now and remove our ‘shackles’ because we are loved and defended to our core, freedom really is on for young and old.
For a greater understanding of how it was the ‘right-wing who have supported the upsetting battle to find knowledge that held the moral highground, not the pseudo idealistic left-wing’ as Jeremy mentions in THE Interview above, I would recommend Video/Freedom Essay 14.

So insightful! I belief with this knowledge the world will start to a better place. Thank you so much.
Ann Barnard
So fascinating....Some of it was very deep...but I did understand most of it. A real eye opening context to how us humans live & act out our lives. Very interesting interview. A lot better than some things that are shown on Fb. I really enjoyed reading this. Thank You.
Linda Harrington
This is absolutely fascinating, explained in an easy to understand fashion. I’ve always searched for the truth, everything felt oddly wrong, now I understand lose myself to find me. That’s exactly how it was several years ago after finding myself due to personal sadness. This has been easy for me to understand due to that reason. Almost stripping oneself of everything down to the bone and rebuilding each segment with love, truth- trusting own instinct, understanding, patience and faith.
Thank you so much.
Light and love

I agree with the sentiments in the other comments - this is a brilliant interview to watch. The incredibly concise presentation by Jeremy allows so much understanding to flood into your system, opening up a whole new landscape of understanding. The relief and amazement fills every cell of your body. An extraordinary experience.
And I have to say having this transcript is so helpful to read through as I listen to Jeremy and Craig. A great resource to have alongside this '“most important interview of all time”.
Lesley Rose Davies
The interview is absolutely brilliant. It is so clear.
Deepak Bhatt
Craig Conway & Jeremy Griffith both are Man with Difference in their own field & interview is approved by Professor Harry Conway. I read all the four section. It contains different Books,their authors references & as a layman I understand it. It shows great passion & devotion of Jeremy Griffith to the subject. This interview should be shared with all the Ambassadors of all the Nations to watch them. After their positive review it should be Telecast & Broadcast into their nation with dubbed & subtitled into local languages. Let policy makers & people have firm understanding. if individual change converts into Mass Movement it will be Paradigm shift.Let all the ambassador convert into Ambassador of Love & this Earth become Garden of Eden.
Prudie
This really is the most precious and important presentation. It is THE Interview as Jeremy Griffith so brilliantly ‘actually solves the underlying issue in all human affairs of the human condition.’ Humanity has been thrown the ultimate lifeline - we humans are finally defended and explained and understood and liberated in this one extraordinary hour! As Professor Harry Prosen has said this brings about ‘the psychological rehabilitation of the human race’.
Lance
If you just watch one video in your life make sure it is this
Prue
The truth will set you free and that is exactly what Jeremy Griffith’s explanation does! The depth and clarity of Jeremy’s world saving presentation in THE Interview and the deeper, lasting solution it provides to all the chaos and suffering in human life, make it immeasurable how precious and enlightening this presentation is for the world. The truth is what our hearts and minds have needed. This is the gift of all gifts for the whole human race and the future. Thank you Jeremy and Craig
Ari
Wow! What an interview. Just brilliant. Thank you Craig
It was only a matter of time before some media outlet got hold of Jeremy Griffiths work and played it for all to see.
At least now people will have the chance to really listen to and absorb Jeremy’s explanations on the most important topic on Earth - the Human Condition.
Solving the Human Condition is literally the only thing that can save the world. There is nothing else. Only the truth can set us free and here it is. All in this brilliant interview and the greatest book ever written FREEDOM.
The holy grail of understanding and freedom from the HC awaits you.
Thank you Jeremy. Thank you Craig. This will be the interview that sets us free.
Connor
All the great questions in human life are discussed openly and freely during this incredible discussion between Jeremy Griffith and Craig Conway. What’s particularly amazing is the breadth and scope of what this interview covers about the human story in just a short hour - from the clash between our instincts and intellect, all the way through to how we each can become free of our own selfish pre-occupation and collectively, save the world! An absolutely astonishing result of decades of refinement of the presentation of these absolutely critical, world-saving insights.
Doug
What a fantastic interview that takes you through the whole human story from our pre-conscious beginnings as a species, to our current seemingly dire predicament, to how we can now turn it all around for ourselves and the future generations of humans, now that the human condition is solved.
And all in just 1 hour!
Alice W
You have to listen to this hour of brilliance - it explains our species past, present and, if we embrace this biological understanding, a cooperative loving future. What have you got to lose! In deep deep gratitude to Jeremy Griffith and Craig Conway
Roger
Wow, that was the clearest and subsequently most exciting communication from Griffith yet !!!!!
If you’ve been struggling to understand this explanation or you feel like your missing something then you have to watch or listen to The Interview. It’s just so simply explained.
I’d recommend watching it because Conway totally gets it and his excitement is contagious.
Congratulations and thank you to both Griffith and Conway because it was another amazing moment for me and I’m backing it going viral.
Piper
For every question asked by Craig Conway in this interview there is a clear, logical and conclusive answer given by Jeremy Griffith. This is testament to a biological understanding of the human condition that can finally reconcile our embattled selves and forge a higher level of consciousness. What a wonderful platform and enlightening discussion that is needed for humans to burst out of a cave of denial, bring peace and heal the suffering in our world.
Amanda Pollard
Pure AWESOME Watched it and shared it 🔆❤😁
Sally
Another brilliant masterpiece from Jeremy Griffith! The world is teetering on the edge of imploding as a result of 2 million years of anger, frustration, confusion and insecurity of our worth as humans and here, in just 1 precious, golden hour, Jeremy explains why and in so doing solves the human condition and shows us how all the pain and suffering we’ve endured can be fixed up up straight away. I love the description about THE Interview, as it surely is ‘the now urgently needed road map for the complete rehabilitation and transformation of our lives and world!’ A must-watch for everyone, thank you Jeremy and Craig for this most wonderful of all presentations.
Brony
I’ve been around this information for more than 25 years and this interview by Craig Conway and Jeremy Griffith is just the cleanest, purest, easily accessible and succinct presentation I’ve ever seen of Jeremy’s world-saving explanation of the human condition. And it is world-saving, well it’s saved my life many times over, I just can’t even imagine where I’d be if I hadn’t come across this understanding of us humans. This interview is rightly called THE interview because there’s never been a true understanding of the human condition before, and never been such a succinct presentation of the understanding. I really think this is going to be a game-changer for the human race because, as Craig says in the interview, the world can’t cope with any more upset behaviour, and this interview should go viral it’s so clean and straight forward to follow.
Michael Leunig had a cartoon in the Sydney Morning Herald on Sat about how everyone’s deludedly thinking this coronavirus pandemic is going to allow everyone to build a new and better world because there’ll be no fundamental change, but wait until this interview starts getting spread around and everyone will realise a fundamental change is now possible. Someone should send this interview to Leunig.
Just share this interview and help this real love go viral, please, please, please!!
Ned
A tight, clear presentation of Griffith’s breakthrough treatise. Brilliant!
Susy
You can’t overstate how important this interview is, I completely agree with Prof Prosen. I know it ends the turmoil, conflict and suffering in human life because that’s exactly what it has done for my life, it is just so vital that every human on the planet is given the opportunity to watch it. Jeremy Griffith is absolutely extraordinary in his profound clarity and insight into the source of all our problems of the human condition. In such a short time we are completely provided with ‘the road map for the complete rehabilitation and transformation of our lives and world’ no less, it’s so all-understanding and exciting and wondrous!! I will be sharing this from now to kingdom come! Humanity is FREE!!
Fi
A brilliant, articulate and really, really engaging and mind-opening presentation of biological thinking that is on a scale that can’t actually be measured!! So much is packed in to this interview, but it’s all amazingly accessible and understandable and relatable. A great lead-in to learning more in the video series that follows it.
Polly
I am astounded by how much information is covered in this incredible interview, it really is world changing and saving! The implications of this are just so exciting now that we can fully understand ourselves and where we come from, and we can all participate in bringing about a free, happy and meaningful future. Hooray!!!!
Anna
Who would have thought the human condition and its resolution could have been explained so simply. Fantastic presentation.

Hope at last for mankind.
If humans were instinctively cooperative why would we, have conflict with those instincts? I think it more likely we have always been both or at the least, the capacity to express both. And not only express both but encourage encourage and rationalize both aspects.
Thanks for your question and thoughts Myck. The biology presented is absolutely fascinating but there’s much to absorb. Instincts are naturally selected orientations not understandings of cause and effect. Therefore, no matter their particular orientation, instincts are going to be against any divergent behaviour. Our instincts are to be loving and cooperative, but the point is that these loving and cooperative instincts are, like any instincts, hardwired, they are rigid, and so they are in effect intolerant of any non-instinctive behaviour. And so, when our conscious mind wrested control from our instincts and began its search for understanding (as Jeremy explains in the Adam Stork story) “Adam’s instincts realise he has strayed off course they are going to criticise his deprogrammed behaviour and dogmatically try to pull him back on his instinctive flight path! In effect, they are going to condemn him as being bad.” Jeremy explains this in greater detail in FREEDOM ch 3:3 pars 247-248. He also explains that having loving instincts, as opposed to something like a bird’s flight path, actually made our human situation so much worse, describing it as a ‘double and triple whammy’ (see FREEDOM ch 3:5). At last we can understand our contradictory behaviour and resolve the deep conflict within us!
Thanks 🙏🏼 Everyone should hear 👂🏿 it Thanks 🙏🏼
I love the comment it’s help a lot of people I and me very Powerful message thank you A God Bless 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Powerful Message which everyone needs to hear. Thanks
Very interesting. Hope Humanity is willing to cooperate united towards World-Peace
It’s great to have your interest Hildegard! There is much to think about and absorb in this introductory presentation but as Jeremy explains since our species’ divisive behaviour is due to a psychosis, that divisive behaviour can be cured with healing understanding. That is incredibly exciting news, because with understanding we can finally end our psychologically troubled human condition and legitimately return to a cooperative way of living. So, in a world fast going crazy from the effects of the human condition, this is the now desperately needed reconciling understanding that brings about a new world free of the agony of the human condition. As our FAQ 1.6 summarises it actually ends our upset behaviour and thus brings the long-hoped for lasting peace to the human race!
Thank you for bringing a better understanding of the human condition and what we must strive to seek to heal within while sharing with others so that they may also embrace a more gentle and cooperative way of living.
Wonderful just what we needed simply explained
Thank you 🙏🏻❤️ It means a lot to all woken people, to have a channel thats free and dare to criticise the media propaganda. Thank you for putting your life out there 🙏🏻 Ealeorah
Amazing❤️❤️❤️
explained in such an easy understandable way thank you
Had to listen twice, and read the chapters slowly to take it in because it made so much sense i thought i might misunderstand and this is just fascinating and i hope more people read about this. Thank you
It is the most fascinating information Alexandra and everyone certainly needs to access it so your comment is much appreciated! As is mentioned in THE Interview we’ve had to live in denial of our psychologically upset human condition while we couldn’t explain it so it makes sense we need to re-visit the explanation a few times to access it. This is termed the ‘deaf effect’ and is the subject of Video/Freedom Essay 1 titled ‘Your block to the most wonderful of all gifts’. After THE Interview, we recommend people watch or read Video/Freedom Essays 1-14 and 14 on our homepage, as together they provide a concise summary of the key understandings of the human condition. You can subscribe to our free mailing list to receive all Freedom Essays here. (You might also like to read the reply to Alan’s comment below which includes more information about this initial Deaf Effect.)
Fascinating!
The 12step program of NA not AA, is the look at the belief system and not the substance. It is also not religious but spiritual. In conjunction with your treatise it offers a way to live in harmony while free from the burdons of guilt, remorse and shame which I guess in essence is some of what you propose too. Most addicts, I’ve found, felt apart from society without knowing why. You offer a solution to that question which brings hope. For that I am immensely grateful to you. I go to war with my brain on a daily basis as do most addicts, in recovery or not, this is trying and fruitless. It drains energy and creates stress. A life not worth living is the feeling often associated with this existence. You offer hope in the guise of an explanation of our condition, I get that now, thank you. For you efforts, time patience and perseverance I thank you. Hope is such a huge thing to an addict especially one in recovery..
I love this, simple to understand and free! I’ve always felt apart from society. I care. I ended up a heroin addict, no excuses here. I love everyone and can’t understand why everyone doesn’t feel the same. You explain why...
Yes Callum the human condition has caused so much unbearable suffering and isolation for humans it has been a deeply tragic reality. The core breakthrough of Jeremy Griffith’s explanation of the human condition is we no longer have to be burdened by the fundamental question of whether we are good or bad because our core goodness as individuals and as a species has been biologically established. We can know our psychological upset was the price humans had to pay for searching for knowledge and that the human story presents the greatest, most heroic story ever told. So we can now look after ourselves with great compassion and kindness and we don’t have to overly confront the upset within us (as FAQ 1.19 summarises).
So far as I understand it, I enjoyed and believe it must be spread all over the world.
I appreciate this audio book that is so unbelievable, I love it!
For some years I have been researching upon some of the same thoughts. How liberating to see how large these truly good ideas already have become within a parallel track – Thanks Jeremy! … and all the rest of you for seeing the same light.
It’s great to have your interest Thomas and thank you for your feedback. Yes, this understanding is all-liberating because it finally relieves us of the great burden of the human condition we have all had to carry until now. Our Video/Freedom Essay 4 discusses that while many have identified the elements of instinct and intellect involved in creating the human condition, the great breakthrough Jeremy’s treatise provides is the clarifying explanation of the nature of the conflict between them and explains without that explanation the conflict could not be resolved. (I’m sure you will find this essay, and also its companion F. Essay 53 most fascinating.) This really is the holy grail of the whole human journey of conscious thought and enquiry no less! As Professor Harry Prosen expresses in his Introduction to FREEDOM in par 3: “Jeremy provides that great unifying, make-sense-of-everything synthesis—for not only does his treatise explain the human condition—our species’ capacity for what has been called ‘good’ and ‘evil’—his ability to plumb the great depths of this most foreboding of all subjects has meant that he has also been able to provide the fully accountable explanation of the other great outstanding mysteries in science”
How long do you think it will take mankind to start healing itself from all the trauma it has placed on itself?
Jeremy’s instinct vs intellect explanation of the human condition does lift the ‘burden of guilt’ from the human race. It establishes that while we are all inevitably variously upset from our encounters with humanity’s heroic battle to find understanding of our corrupted condition, we can now know that every human is fundamentally good. That is the key relieving understanding we have been in search of ever since we became conscious some 2 million years ago and our corrupted condition emerged. So in terms of humanity’s rehabilitation it will be a generational process but this key understanding brings immediate psychological relief to our minds and from there we start to heal. This is explained in our FAQ 1.4 and you might also like to read Hannah’s comment and reply to her below. As Craig Conway says in THE Interview “the truth of our fundamental goodness is the truth that we needed to set us free from the human condition”!
Thank You, since I have been questioned if I can imagine the world with loving and supporting way,- for 1 year I am trying to imagine that world, I believe we can manifest that. It is remarkable and I wish to share it in different languages please (polish). Dostoevsky (I would like to know, which publication describe that please) So thankful for that, it gives us relief and Letting GO
Finally, with understanding of the human condition Katarzyna, we can at last not just imagine but actually live in support of and help bring about the transformation of the world when, as Jeremy Griffith writes in FREEDOM ch 9:8, par 1217: “And what did that truth-saying prophet John Lennon ‘imagine’? A time when the human condition is resolved and ‘the world will be as one’, when there will be ‘no heaven [above us and] no hell below us’; when, in essence, there will be a world without the condemning differentiation of good and evil, a world liberated from the insecurity of the human condition and thus the need for religion, where, as Lennon sang, there will be ‘Nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too…all the people living life in peace…No need for greed or hunger, a brotherhood of man…all the people sharing all the world’ (Imagine, 1971).” You must read chapter 9 of FREEDOM titled ‘The Transformation of The Human Race’ Katarzyna because it wraps us up in relief and shows us how we can let go of our upset and embrace freedom! That’s why I think it is the best chapter of the best book ever written!The sublime passage from the great Russian novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky that Jeremy quotes in THE Interview is referenced there as from Dosstoevsky’s short story The Dream of a Ridiculous Man written in 1877.We do have THE Interview, and other WTM publications, translated into Afrikaans, Dutch, French, German and Spanish. Unfotunately we don’t yet have any Polish translations but keep an eye on our homepage www.humancondition.com where, below the ‘Main Videos’ there is a ‘Translations’ button, which shows all our translations at any given time. Until a Polish translation is available you can watch all our videos using the subtitles function. The subtitles icon ‘cc’ is at the bottom of easy video player.Hope at last for mankind.
Thank you
thank you............
Jeremy, Thank you for all the study and thought and hard work you have put into this! I have just now been introduced to your work and your viewpoint. I am a social worker and counselor. My mind is racing with all the ramifications of this simple but huge revelation. Do you think that, having functioned in this upset state with wrong-headed truth and denial so prevalent for so long, this state is now part of our genetic imprint? That perhaps even though able to see differently, we are most prone to act in harmony with an archetype of angry alienation? Humans adore the status quo and no matter how irrational and painful, many will cling to it. Some will stubbornly cling to indoctrination, others to denial of the ability to think. There will be many barriers to change. Thank you for starting us down the path, however long. You have given me a great deal of hope - a precious thing to an old woman.
Thank you so much for your appreciative and thoughtful comment Hannah. Yes as Jeremy writes in FREEDOM par 241, “while the crux question facing the human race, of the much-needed clarification of the nature of ‘good and evil’, does have an amazingly simple answer, the implications of it could not be more significant, far-reaching or exciting” so it’s no wonder your mind is racing! There is a lot to absorb and adjust to as this explanation does present the ultimate paradigm shift no less.Most significantly Jeremy explains humans’ angry and alienated behaviour is not a product of unchangeable savage animal instincts within us, but the result of a psychosis, caused by the clash between our instinct and intellect, and a psychosis IS changeable as it can be healed through understanding. As he explains in FREEDOM ch 8:16E, there is some genetic adaptation to upset, but it is miniscule compared with our all-loving instinctive soul, developed over the millions of years that we were living lovingly and cooperatively before the human condition emerged. To quote the end of that chapter “Even the upset that is now instinctive, in our genes, will not be an issue because when our capacity to love is finally liberated, as it can now be, it will effectively make all our upset—both psychological and instinctive—disappear without a trace. It is all history now” So this transformation is certainly happening! Just look at the incredible Commendations on our homepage and also our fabulous Transformation page—both are a must-visit!Yes humans find change difficult and the current paradigm will resist so, as with any new scientific breakthrough in history, it will take time for people to realise this IS the great breakthrough in understanding ourselves. But with more support—through people such as yourself recognising the importance of this information—our capacity to love will solve our problems very quickly (see our FAQs 1.4–1.6). Thank you again Hannah (and this all-reconciling-and-relieving information makes us youthful and alive again no matter our age!).I listened to jeremy with interest and curosity. I am sure soon we will be able to heal this psychosis with understanding
Wonderful enlightenment
I agree 100% we need to change, we need to end all war!
thank you
It’s super amazing to learn from outmost Jeremy, you are so brilliant !!! Thank you 🌈
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. They’re brilliant and I believe do you have it right! I’m so excited for the human race to become in lightened. The simplicity of it makes it hard to grasp so I’ll most definitely be watching again. Namaste 🙏
*Enlightened❤️
I came here from an ad on YouTube. It’s the question I have had on my mind for a long time, so I clicked. I’m not as positive though. Because I think it may be too late to save ourselves. We have plundered the ecosystem to it’s limit and beyond and I believe it’s just a matter of time before complete collapse. NOTHING will change soon enough. I’m not knocking any of the video or research or books. I just think it’s too late. I want my glass to be half full instead of half empty. I just don’t see it.
Your pessimism about whether we can save ourselves is understandable Mark. All the problems we’re experiencing on this planet, aside from natural phenomenon, are caused by us humans and it’s the underlying issue of our destructive behaviour that has to be understood if we are to solve the world’s problems—we certainly need answers and we need them urgently! There is a quote in FREEDOM ch 1:2 about humans needing “psychological maturity fast. We are locked in a race between self destruction and self discovery” to which Jeremy responds “Yes, our species has come to the critical juncture where ONLY ‘self discovery’—reconciling, ameliorating, ‘psychological[ly]’ healing understanding of ourselves—could save us from ‘self destruction’.” We urge you to re-visit THE Interview, and I’m sure you will begin to see that what Jeremy is presenting is actually that desperately needed reconciling understanding. Our FAQs about the human condition and how it can be resolved are an excellent resource.Also, you might find Jeremy Griffith’s Freedom Essays about ‘Do we fail or do we make it?’ fascinating, see F. Essays 55—58. These present a fearless hard hitting analysis of the state of the world followed by how the extraordinary transforming power of this information can save the world. The significance of the explanation of the human condition takes some time to absorb as humans do have an historic fear of the whole subject (see F. Essay 1), but the more you do absorb it, the more you realise just how all-reconciling and solving it is and that all our deepest dreams have come true. All our glasses are actually overflowing now with lasting and transformative solutions, real joy and happiness can return to the human species!What a presentation! This is so concise, and yet all-encompassing.
Explained at last where it makes sense and is understandable
Very enlightening and moving! Thank you! It reminds me of the words of Christina von Dreien. We have all forgotten that we are all children( souls) of the light... Everything that is helping us to remember will solve our inherited problem. And the science of today has found in its new dimension of knowledge how to explain this to us. In gratitude Carole.
It’s wonderful to have your appreciative feedback Carole. What is so significant about Jeremy Griffith’s biological treatise is it actually answers the essential question of why, when the ideals are to be loving and selfless, are we so competitive and selfish? Why have we forgotten about the all-sensitive world of our soul? The fundamental problem the human race has always had is to explain or justify competitive, selfish and aggressive behaviour. That is what Jeremy finally explains with his instinct vs intellect explanation of the human condition and what is of unique importance to the survival of the world. As you say the science of today has finally found the much-needed knowledge to explain this which is indeed enlightening and moving because it floods the world with relief and freedom! The full significance of this explanation does takes time to absorb, but the more you do absorb it, the more you realise just how all-reconciling and liberating it is. Our FAQ 6.5 which explains the huge difference between Jeremy’s work and that of spiritual, new age movements may be of interest.
You changed my life forever in your video I just watched , it gave me hope that it’s not to late to change the world . Thank you so very much for sharing that with all of us !! ❤️
My gut feeling about this is one of relief and strength and that maybe we can actually save the world. I am eager to investigate further and value this experience. I have told my family to watch this asap
Not really following this. What is it that I am forgiving myself for ? Or have I missed the point completely ?
Hi Alan, the very nature of the human condition, the issue of whether we are fundamentally good or bad, means explanation of it can be initially difficult to access. It has been the most unbearably depressing and terrifying of subjects to face — why are we capable of such contradictory behaviour as to be selfless and loving but also selfish and destructive? Until that question could be answered, which it has in THE Interview, we have lived with a feeling of unworthiness, insecurity, shame and guilt and, necessarily, in almost total denial of the human condition, so it does take a while to fully appreciate the extent of our denial and the impact this can have on the way we respond to discussion of it.Significantly, now our upset state is explained and defended, we can safely re-connect with the human condition in ourselves and the world and bring love or forgiveness to our dark side. In fact the more you digest the explanation, the more you understand that becoming corrupt was an immensely heroic state, not a shameful one.It may help to watch/read Video/Freedom Essay 1 about this initial ‘deaf effect’ block to accessing discussion of the human condition and hopefully it will encourage your ongoing patience with this information. The summary in FAQ 1.16 might also be helpful.Very true. Many thanks to Jeremy. God Bless him.
You changed my life forever in your video I just watched , it gave me hope that it’s not to late to change the world . Thank you so very much for sharing that with all of us !! ❤️ You explained a lot of things that have been in my mind but I have never had the proper words to describe them . Now that we know the problem and the cause we need to figure out the solution .... and I hope you have some suggestions ... I will be passing this on to other people, this is so important that all world leaders should know about it . We need to incorporate this to the schools.... it’s incredible that we have been creating our own problems ! This world definitely needs to transform into something better ! The hate is getting out of control !
Wow, a book called course in miracles explains the human condition the same way. The two match almost completely but CIM describes it in spiritual way. Here its biological perspective. Thank you for the video.
We appreciate your interest Jaginder however to see the huge difference between what we are presenting and the ‘Course in Miracles’, you may find this comment on Video/Freedom Essay 9 by subscriber Lesley Davies helpful. Lesley said: “I can now see why A Course in Miracles didn’t work for me. I completed the 365 day course three years running to try and heal myself from deep depression and anxiety. After reading essay 15 and studying Freedom it becomes clear that without the explanation of WHY we are so upset ACIM can only act as a sticky plaster with the ’scream’ still going on underneath.” We also recommend our FAQ 6.5, https://www.humancondition.com/wtm-faq-is-this-new-age/.
Explain to me why are dark skined people are hated all over the world??? And, do you believe in God, or life after death?
Thank you very much for your interest JW Clink. Significantly Jeremy Griffith’s breakthrough instinct vs intellect explanation of the human condition allows us to understand why the horror of racism has existed under the duress of the human condition and, most importantly, finally brings it to an end. This desperately needed reconciling understanding of the relationship between races is explained in Freedom Essay 28. And for a testimonial on the power of this information to end racism, we recommend watching/reading the presentation from Franklin Mukakanga, of Zambia, in Video/Freedom Essay 8. Although ultimately a fulfilment of religion (see FAQ 6.3), understanding of the human condition also finally makes it possible to explain and demystify religious concepts. In terms of understanding the theme or purpose or meaning of existence, and its personification as ‘God’ we would recommend Freedom Essay 23. And Jeremy explains and demystifies our need to believe in a physical ‘afterlife’ in par. 840 of FREEDOM and in more detail in this section of his 2003 book A Species In Denial.Complex yet a beautiful simplicity at the same time. What a feeling of hope.
If my understanding is correct,the human’insticts, is as ancient as human history itself,but the process of developing human consciousness is gradually,started from epoch of Adam and Eve,What about the realization and consciousness of the existence of the soul, as the human personality is the component of body, intellect, and soul.What is the first creation of God, Universe, body, Intellect Or soul??? Thanks a lot for the kind explainations from some one.
For an explanation of our all-loving, unconditionally selfless moral instincts or soul and how we acquired it Imamdad please see Freedom Essay 21, and for an explanation of integrative meaning and its personification as ‘God’ please see Freedom Essay 23.
I agree! Thanks for this information! Greetings from Amsterdam
Wonderful Koen! You may be interested to know that we have two WTM Centres in the Netherlands, the WTM Amsterdam Centre which was founded by Annemieke Akker and Hendrik Riksen, see https://www.wtmamsterdamnl.com (also available to view in Dutch), and the WTM Arnhem Centre founded by Jolanda Timmerman and Fred Lankamp, see https://www.wtmarnhem.com. You will see they each include wonderful videos talking about why they each established the Centres and contact information is available too. In addition, our introductory publications including THE Interview and Jeremy Griffith’s definitive book FREEDOM: The End of The Human Condition are also available in Dutch having been translated by Annemieke and Hendrik, and are freely available in Dutch on both websites. All of the many WTM Centres around the world can be seen at this link, https://www.humancondition.com/transformation/#wtm-centres-launch.
That’s amazing!!! Jeremy is an incredible man. Thank you very much Susan for a great news! I will share it with my husband, we are living in The Netherlands, he is Dutch & it’s always easier to learn it in your native language in parallel with English for deeper understanding. Can’t wait to buy the book.
What wonderful feedback Marina! Now all our translations are also available on our website. Just go to our homepage www.humancondition.com and below the ‘Main Videos’ there is a ‘Translations’ button. Click that and follow the prompts to access THE Interview and many other WTM publications in various languages!You can buy purchase hard copies of FREEDOM and Jeremy’s other books at bookstores, including Amazon. Also they are all freely available to read online or download here on our website and the summary booklet Transform Your Life is also available as an audio book! Thank you for your comment and happy reading!I gave an hour of my (shrinking volume of) life to this vid. I was determined that at the first mention of God, Christ, or anything overtly messianic, I would crash out. As it happens, I gave it some leeway due to the obvious Co Durham accent & (assumed) heritage of the host; (irrational, I know, but as a Darlington lad and a linguist, as well as aging hippie & devout atheist, I’m still not without harmless prejudice), but with still no mention of of anything religious or pseudo-mystical, I paused at the end of part 1, got some more beer, and continued. It was worth the loss of an hour of the time left to me. In short, if you have an open mind, but not so open that it admits obvious bollocks, it’s worth looking at, if you have an interest in the overlap of philosophy, anthropology, ethics, behavioural psychology, the power-dynamics, and invention of, religion, paedogogy, and with filaments reaching out in loads of other directions. It’s a bit too evangelistic for my taste, and the touted book isn’t something I’d regard as essential to everyday life, like the Bible or the Little Red Book, or Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance were supposed to be, but given the fact that the vid’s purpose seems to be as an infomercial to direct the viewer to the accompanying website, it’s acceptable as such. Favourable references to two of my modern-day heroes, St-Exupéry & van der Post, only increase my interest in the subject. I’d be interested to know what interested parties & recognised authorities in the field think/thought of the ideas espoused here. Sadly, we’ll never know the view of Prof Hawking, but the views of van der Post’s lifelong friend, HRH the Duke of Cornwall, Prof Steve Jones, and Prof Richard Dawkins would be, in my view, interesting and contributive. I believe this synopsis to be fair & reasonable. I’m not a scientist or a specialist in any of the areas I mention - I’m actually a musician & linguist. But if your mind is sufficiently open to admit interesting new ideas, but not to allow your brain to drop out of the hole, this is definitely worth looking at, and subsequent to posting this message, I intend to access the the cited website. Cheers, Paul The Same. If anyone is sufficiently interested to send me an email, they’ll be able to discover by trial & error my email address!
We greatly appreciate your interest Paul and encourage you to continue to investigate; it’s significance will only continue to grow on you. In fact, we suggest that the more you look into it, the more you will agree with Craig Conway and Professor Harry Prosen that this is a breakthrough of immeasurable importance to the human race.
It is very interesting that he does have a great understanding of the human condition, but needs to go to the next level and that is how did we get here where did this soul and body and the greater power come from, leaving out a Supreme Intelligence (God) and referring to creation in the Garden of Eden as the plausible of his understanding is a late level it explains our Good/Bad but does not explain why we are here. The Bible conveys the reason written in veiled old Testament and Actual new Testament reasoning for our existence. However it is a great insight into the human condition leaving out our reason for being. Cheers, this is just a thought to provoke pre existence level via Supreme being. :)
Hi Dennis, you might be interested in our Freedom Essay (FE) series where Jeremy explains the other key biological explanations in more detail. Namely, ‘How we acquired our altruistic moral conscience’ in FE21; ‘Fossil discoveries evidence our nurtured origins’ in FE22; ‘Integrative meaning or “God”’ in FE23; ‘How did consciousness emerge in humans?’ in FE24 and ‘The truthful biology of life’ in FE25.
It’s not every day you read something so profound. Thank you.
Wow. This has brought everything home for me! incredible.
thank you very much for the information
A revelation in every sense of the word. I hope for the sake of mankind that the whisper becomes a roar. Having taken thousands of years to get to this point, it is nigh on impossible to imagine that we have enough time to make things right before the light is lost forever. Where and how to start, when so many are not even aware that there is a question to be asked......
How excellent!! Thank you!! I wish everyone could see life this way!! I don’t appreciate the pull into politics at the very end!! LOL Thank you again!!
What a lovely and understandable explication of our inner soulful drive for Beauty and Peace. Thank you for giving me and others to see the light in this very dark place today.
Watch this video. In one hour it doesn’t just explain the human condition, it untangles it, brings relieving understanding to it, solves it, heals it, puts it to rest, makes it all clear, liberates us, transforms us all, you name it, it bloody well does it. It is the most important video on the planet. Like the man says, if you just watch one video in your life, make sure this is it!
Patriarchy is the psychosis!
Current form of Capitalism reflects & supports competitive, agressive & selfish societies...angry egocentric & alienated. The conscious mind is a wonderful thing! Gnostics have known Adam & Eve were hero’s for thousands of years.
Hi Rozee, I enjoy these topics you’ve raised! What I’ve learnt, and as Jeremy explains in this remarkable interview, is that there is the most magnificent reason for our angry, egocentric and alienated behaviour, all being by products of the corrupting but heroic search for knowledge. As you say the conscious mind is actually a wonderful thing, and this understanding only adds first principle biological evidence to that fact! Similarly as Jeremy touches on at the end, there is a really good reason for the right wing and capitalism, and although the whole world of politics can come to an end now with understanding, in the current political field the right wing actually held the high moral ground. This is further explained in the very enlightening Freedom Essay 34, will put link at the end, a must read! In terms of the Gnostics, I’ve recently read Freedom again and Jeremy refers to that relatively sound religion in chapter 8, explaining that they emphasised self-knowledge. Again I’ll try to find the link and put it at the end as you will enjoy reading it. The huge difference from the days of the Gnostics and all religions is the truth about human life that they present is all from a pre-scientific view. Solving the human condition required finding the clarifying difference between the way the intellect and instincts work, and that is the great breakthrough that Jeremy Griffith has found (which is explained in the interview above). Again it is the biological proof for why Adam and Eve are the heroes of the whole story of life on Earth! https://www.humancondition.com/freedom-essays/understanding-human-condition-brings-end-to-politics/ https://www.humancondition.com/freedom-less-guilt-emphasising-expressions-of-religion/
We disagree Sarah. At the heart of the explanation in THE Interview is the revelation that all our astonishingly selfish and brutal behaviour, especially on the part of men, has been an unavoidable consequence of humans’ necessary search for self-knowledge. The human condition has been a tragic situation and as Jeremy explains the rift that resulted between men and women has caused some of the deepest wounds in human life. Now we have understanding of our human-condition-psychosis which is shared by all humans, women are finally able to reason and see that what men have been doing on this planet has been actually the most meaningful and heroic job of all—and speaking from experience that is an absolute revelation! I will never forget when I first realised this, that men aren’t the monsters I thought they were, it literally did stop me dead in my tracks! Women have been the victims of men, we have been horribly oppressed and are now understandably very angry and resentful towards men. But as Jeremy always says, the question screaming to be asked is WHY have men oppressed women?! To finally have an answer to that is simply amazing and the rift between the sexes begins to heal at a rapid rate.As molecular biologist Dr Anna Fitzgerald says in her commendation of Jeremy’s work: ‘because Griffith’s work establishes the equal worth or goodness of all humans we can now understand the different roles that men and women have traditionally played in the human journey and this is actually the unlocking point, this is what brings about deep empathy for each other, it heals the divide.’ You can watch/read this Video/Freedom Essay 9 titled This is the real liberation of women here.For further understanding about the embattled relationship between men and women, and the subsequent reconciliation that is now available we recommend Freedom Essays 26 and 27. Or for a summary you can visit our FAQs about men and women here.Oh Wow I’m completely blown away. Feels like a big mountain just got moved out of the way in terms of human progress and I want to tell everyone! How good’s this!
Yes, it’s not pie in the sky . We can truly have it now. The miss explanation we have lived with through religious control has ended and we can now live fully in FREEDOM. The word (SIN) is an old English word used by Archers in practice. Means, to miss the mark, and with Freedom explained we now cannot miss the mark. Durstin Gray.
ty awesome news for humanity
I just wanted to say Jeremy, I’m 55yrs old and speeking for my up bringing, it wasn’t right to be shown any kind of love, my brother and I were shown who was boss very early and didn’t speak out unless we were allowed and left with a lot of damage because off our up bringing, it was hell, we were beaten as if we were adults not very young children, I listened to what ye had to say, but I’m afraid it’s not that easy to get over it even at my age. Thank you for reading this.
We are very, very sorry to hear about the pain you and your brother have suffered Noreen and are very appreciative of your interest. The human condition has absolutely been such a deeply, deeply tragic journey full of so much unthinkable pain and suffering, especially for children, it really is almost too much to bare.It certainly can be overwhelming trying to deal with the human-condition-afflicted suffering in ourselves and in the whole of the human race, but Noreen that therapy is now able to begin with the understanding that we now have of why it all happened, and from there we each, and the human race as a whole can work our way inwards to the core suffering within. So it is a process and as Jeremy says it’s going to take generations for all the anger and upset to subside and heal.What is significant about this explanation is we don’t have to be burdened by the fundamental question we all have struggled with of whether we are good or bad anymore because our fundamental goodness as a species has been biologically established (which THE Interview and Video/Freedom Essay 3 summarises). That macro truth looks after all humans now and we can treat ourselves with great compassion and kindness and know that what happened to us as infants was not because we weren’t good enough or that we were unlovable but rather the human condition caused a level of upset in humans so great it gave them the capacity for such acts of violence. Our FAQ 4.2 about human ‘evil’ may also be helpful. To quote an extract, “At long last we have the reason for humans’ capacity for shocking acts of cruelty, sadism, hate, murder and warfare—we now know the source of the dark volcanic forces in us humans” but “Importantly, this understanding of why we became upset as a species does not condone or sanction ‘evil’, rather, through bringing understanding to humans’ upset behaviour, it gives us the power to ameliorate and thus subside and ultimately eliminate it—and, in the short term, to transcend all that upset and take up a transformed life in complete support of an anger, egocentricity and alienation-free world.”It does take some time to absorb the significance of this information and it’s far-reaching implications so I hope you continue to explore our material as the more you absorb it the more you see that it will bring about the reconciled, loving world that you and your brother, and all children dream of. Further FAQs that we recommend are FAQ 4.1 about the transformation this information brings about and also FAQ 1.19 which explains that it can be very confronting and therefore destabilising on a personal level if people overly study the information or rush into it so that is something everyone should be mindful of and especially if you have a history of trauma or psychological instability.If ti was that simple We all would be living in a ideal world.Powerfull governments will always keep the under dog down .I n His speach he has not mentioned how the poor will ever prosper Regards Peter Jennings
We totally agree Peter that this information must reach everyone, very much including those less fortunate, and we are doing all we can to make these world-saving insights universally available. We are still in the pioneering stages of gathering support for these all confronting but wonderfully liberating insights and it will take some time to break through the bastions of power in the world, and for people to realise that this is what it says it is, as with any new scientific breakthrough in history. However once this information gets a foothold through enough people developing a deep appreciation and desire to support it, the selfless love and energy that will generated will solve our problems very quickly because instead of being preoccupied with power, fame, fortune etc, all our energies will be freed to truly work together and focus on doing whatever it takes to end the suffering in all the corners of the world.We do already have authoritative support, such as from arguably the world’s leading psychiatrist in Professor Prosen (see the commendations section on our website), a large and growing global subscriber base and over 40 WTM Centres all around the world (see this link), and in time we will attract more influential support which will in turn aid in helping those less fortunate to access this....if genius is “the ability to see the obvious” then this deceptively simple explanation of the role of the Ego in our evolution is ABSOLUTELY brilliant...I feel FREE, FREE, FREE...free of the dark confusion I’ve always felt because I could NEVER understand how ‘survival of the fittest’ allowed such a plethora of human misery-causing weakness to exist?! ... from the bottom of my soul, THANK YOU for sharing this with all of us 😍 BTW--this also may explain why so many people who care for intellectually disabled individuals ‘fall in love’ with their job? Not suggesting they are less evolved, just the opposite, as many of them do experience the prolonged nurturing you suggest may have helped us evolve.
More art work needed of mothers nurturing their sons. If this is how woman help to understand the human condition , please make it well know for future mothers. The role of motherhood is very difficult & heartbreaking most of the time & very unrewarding . Many mothers just give up & let their sons do what they want, especially single mothers. Please promote Motherhood , please promote motherhood, through your posters. & clothing. I will try to do this also. Thank you, for this life changing information but I feels now hopeless for my grown upset children as they are now set in their ways .
It’s wonderful to have your interest in the WTM Winnifred and thank you for your suggestions and support.As Jeremy explains in FREEDOM the crucial role that nurturing has played in the maturation of our species and continues to play in our individual upbringing today, has been another of those unbearable truths that humans couldn’t face until we could explain our divisive, unloving human condition. It has been a very difficult and heartbreaking situation as you describe. I would highly recommend you read ch 6:13 of FREEDOM which is titled, Nurturing now becomes a priority. There Jeremy explains that ‘now that we have found that very good reason why parents have been unable to nurture their children with anything like the unconditional love children instinctively expect and need, it is no longer necessary to deny the importance of nurturing both in the maturation of our species and in our own lives. Yes, with the arrival of understanding the terrible guilt that parents have felt for not being able to adequately nurture their offspring departs. Parents can now understand that their inability to adequately love their offspring is not their fault, but the product of the ever-accumulating levels of upset in the human race as a whole that resulted from our species’ heroic 2-million-year search for knowledge, specifically for self-knowledge, understanding of why we conscious humans are good and not bad. So yes, we can finally now admit the importance of nurturing and turn our attention back to the nurturing of our offspring—in fact, it now becomes a matter of great urgency that we do both these things.’The innocence of children is absolutely devastated by the psychologically upset world of adults. Importantly however, it’s not what has happened to us in our lives so much as our inability to understand why it was happening that has been the problem. It’s been the terrible silence about the horror of the human condition that children have had to endure that is so devastating, and what leads to them to having to resign in their adolescence (you can read more about the process of Resignation in Freedom Essay 30).What heals the world is the honesty that is now available — real therapy comes through understanding. We can talk to children about the unavoidable journey of the human condition and how corrupted we’ve become, and that honesty is what will heal their troubled minds. We have had to live in denial of the human condition, hide in Plato’s dark cave where no exposing light could reach us. But now that we have redeeming understanding that denial is no longer necessary and there are many unbearably confronting truths, such as our inability to nurture, that can be safely confronted now, leading to the repair of the whole human race.Interesting.....but you still haven’t answered fully about the existence of true evil....as it certainly exists in people around the world!!!???
Thank you for your interest in the WTM Billy. Yes, the absolutely horrific psychologically upset state of the human condition has created an extremely frustrated and ferociously angry ‘dark side’ in humans, which has meant we are capable of ‘evil’ or terrible acts.But to quote FAQ 4.2, 'what is so utterly exonerating and psychologically healing about our ability now to understand the human condition is that we can finally appreciate that there was a very good reason for our angry, egocentric and alienated lives—in fact, we can now see why our species has not just been ego-centric, but ego-infuriated, even ego-gone-mad-with-murderous-rage for having to live with so much unjust criticism/guilt, for some 2 million years. At long last we have the reason for humans’ capacity for shocking acts of cruelty, sadism, hate, murder and warfare—we now know the source of the dark volcanic forces in us humans.And with the ability now to explain and understand that all humans are good and not bad, all the upset that resulted from not being able to explain the source of our divisive condition is able to subside and disappear. Finding understanding of the human condition is what rehabilitates and transforms the human race from its psychologically upset angry, egocentric and alienated condition.Importantly, this understanding of why we became upset as a species does not condone or sanction ‘evil’, rather, through bringing understanding to humans’ upset behaviour, it gives us the power to ameliorate and thus subside and ultimately eliminate it—and, in the short term, to transcend all that upset and take up a transformed life in complete support of an anger, egocentricity and alienation-free world.’Humans are not heroes. Being conscious and Seeking knowledge has led only to us being the only species to destroy the planet with our greed despite us understanding cause and effect, whereas all other species contribute to the natural echo system.
Jackie, Jeremy explains that the reason humans are heroic is because our greed and selfishness was an unavoidable result of the development of our uniquely conscious mind. We had to suffer upset and become alienated from our soul’s true world in order to find understanding of ourselves. The horror of our human-condition-afflicted lives is unthinkable and yet we’ve continued on our journey to find understanding. With compassionate understanding found, we can know we are good, we can reconcile with our cooperative and loving instincts and the natural world, our destructive behaviour can come to an end and we can begin the much-needed repair of ourselves and our planet.
I had to listen to this because I’ve always believed we were brainwashed some how many many years ago putting this narsasistic and violent tendencies. Into our path to evelove into rash untrusting aggressive possibly down right violent behavior taught to us because of our openness to achieve knowledge. But this makes so much dahm sence I guess my problem is in ability to change what’s years of school have work so hard to brainwash us into believing. I’m afraid it has it hooks in to many. That won’t ever believe because it was pushed in school I wanna get behind this politics thing but when I’m trying actually to re and Invite myself for real its so cluttered and confusing but please put out more
It’s great to have your interest Jan! Yes in bringing understanding to the human condition, it brings compassionate and thus safe understanding to ALL of human behaviour, be it our individual lives, or politics and the whole democratic process, or religion, the relationship between men and women or different races etc. What you discover is this explanation unravels the seemingly impenetrable and insoluble confusion of human life and actually reconciles the polarities that currently exist — for instance the divide between the left and right wing in politics.It can take some deeper digestion to see the full significance of at last being able to make sense of the great paradox of the human life, namely how we humans are good when we appear to be the complete opposite. But what it means is that now that our goodness has been scientifically established we no longer have to continue to try and prove ourselves, which was the source of all our selfish, egocentric behaviour, and can legitimately return to a selfless way of living — and this is the rapidly transforming effect of being able to understand the human condition. Our conscious thinking brain finally has knowledge/ explanation/ insight into our seemingly horribly flawed human condition, and given time to absorb it, our psychologically troubled human condition can come to an end.After listening to THE Interview, we do recommend the series of introductory videos on our homepage.Finally some Enlightenment for the darkness many are living through.
But narcissistic psychopaths don’t see themselves as ill and go for help...
Thank you for your comment Jo. As Jeremy says in THE Interview above, finding understanding of the human condition brings to an end the insecure, upset, artificial-reinforcement-dependent angry, egocentric and alienated world and that includes those with extreme states of egocentricity known as psychopaths or power addicts. Jeremy explains the power addicted state, particularly in men, in chapter 8:16D of his definitive book FREEDOM. Amongst the founding membership of the World Transformation Movement there are power addicts who have freed themselves of their affliction by taking up the Transformed Way of Living. The affirmations of the Transformed State given by WTM founding members John Biggs and Sam Belfield are recommended viewing.
What a fantastic way to present and clearly hear the wonderful groundbreaking understandings from Jeremy Griffith. The conversation type questions and answers are perfect. Also, breaking these concepts down into 4 parts is a very helpful way to digest all the paradigm shifting information. Well done Jeremy, Craig and the WTM tech support crew in producing this for the world to hear.
I thought I was the only one trying to change people thought, grate, always said something good was going to happen after all this , 😍🤗
The only problem I have with this theory is that the concept of humans having animal instincts has really only been around since Darwin’s Origin of Species. And the initial reaction to that theory was universally hostile. Religion, really , protected us from the truth of our origins , so the idea of people believing we were blighted by our animal instincts does not really hold water. Apart from that reservation, I think this explanation of the human condition makes sense. I thank you for sharing this .
We agree that people have used fundamentalist, literalist interpretations of religious scripture to account for human origins and our supposedly sinful state, however, as Jeremy explains about the story of the Garden of Eden, the truth of the original innocence of the human race is actually present in that story because the Garden of Eden is a metaphor for our species’ original innocent state. And as Jeremy describes in paragraph 194 of FREEDOM, humans have since time immemorial related our savage behaviour to the savage behaviour of animals; for example in 1850, which is before Darwin published ‘Origins’, Tennyson referred to humans as being “red in tooth and claw” like animals.
Amazing and spot on What I’ve always felt But finally explained Don’t read books much these days Not since my daughter was smaller (and I’m really missing that) plus she’s dyslexic which was plus point for me because I got to read and improvise voices of characters so many times that I will always cherish and hopefully she’ll always remember. However I will read the book and possibility recreate a connection with my daughter on a different lleve
What a superb presentation of this ground-breaking world-transforming first-principled biological simple-to-follow fair dinkum explanation of the human condition! I commend it to every person every where!
Traditional hunter gatherer societies were mainly matriarchal or at least equal gender importance (also in the natural world is the bonobo example). It seems that with the rise of world religions and also rise of agricultural settled society and subsequent suppression of half the population in a patriarchal society - we can see where it all went wrong...
The amazing thing about this information is that it actually defends men and their egocentric behaviour, and by so doing, allows the loving state we all want to come about. Certainly this breakthrough information explains all about our matriarchal history with the nurturing being the priority for our ancestors, prior to the human condition emerging, and yes the bonobos are a living example of that time. However once we became conscious two million years ago, and the human condition emerged, the priority changed to finding knowledge and that vital, and in fact very heroic role, fell to men and we changed to a patriarchal society. This includes all the traditional hunter gatherer societies. The really significant thing here Ellen is that this understanding of the HC makes sense of our upset, where it came from, why it has been unavoidable and that it actually is a very heroic and incredibly meaningful state. We have to bring understanding to our human situation to make any permanent and real change, and with this defence we finally can and all the pain and suffering that the HC has caused can come to an end. For a full explanation of the historical roles of men and women and how we are genuinely reconciled now through this understanding I would definitely recommend freedom essay 26, it’s fantastic! And for the differences in races and how this reconciles all races and cultures I would read freedom essay 28. I’ll put the links below https://www.humancondition.com/freedom-essays/men-and-women-reconciled/ https://www.humancondition.com/freedom-essays/the-end-of-racial-prejudice/
Brilliant
It makes so much sense, and I found myself nodding along as he spoke. It would be wonderful if the world acknowledged this and decided to accept this as the Truth. However, I think that even with the knowledge, you’d still get institutions like churches, corrupt governments, etc.. trying their level best to keep this truth from their flocks, citizens because we also have choice and being powerful and in control of thousands might overrule the need to live in love. I’m definitely going to spend time on the website offered, and I also want to thank you for the free literature, and the great interview, brilliantly executed by Craig Conway.
It is wonderful to have your interest Tanya and we are very pleased you found THE Interview so enlightening!You are right to be concerned about how we bring this understanding of the human condition to the world at large and we at the WTM are doing all we can to make these world-saving insights available to absolutely everyone. While this biological understanding of the human condition really is the universal solution to all the problems we face, it does have a slow start-up phase. It will take some time to break through the bastions of power in the world but once this information gets a foothold through enough people like you developing a deep appreciation and desire to support it, the selfless love and energy that will generated will solve our problems very quickly because instead of being preoccupied with power, fame, fortune etc, all our energies will be freed to truly work together and focus on doing whatever it takes to end the suffering in all the corners of the world.And of course it will take a number of generations for all the anger and upset in the world to subside and heal but the point is we have the means now both practically and psychologically, to love our world. And it begins with those secure and functional enough in society to recognise that and make the ‘change of heart’ that understanding of ourselves allows, so that we can actually deal with the overwhelming, more extreme problems in our world in a functional manner. It’s the power of cooperative selflessness that Jeremy talks about in chapter 9:9 of FREEDOM, to quote para 1232: ‘Importantly, the more this understanding and associated transformation catches on, the easier it will be for people to move from the old insecure, ego-centric way of living to the new, secure, ego-less way of living. The egocentric way of living has had such a powerful hold on humans because without understanding of the human condition all that we had was the superficial reinforcement we gained from seeking power, fame, fortune and glory, but now that relieving understanding has been found then that old egocentric way of living will quickly lose its power—so quickly, in fact, that everyone will be amazed by how swiftly their need for and attachment to the old artificial forms of reinforcement falls away.’For the growing momentum of support that is already building around the world for biologist Jeremy Griffith’s breakthrough explanation of the human condition, please see https://www.humancondition.com/transformation/#wtm-centres-launch.I found this interview mind blowing. I need to listen a few times to understand it more. I do know that to live in a loving non aggressive World would be paradise!
Worth reading and very transforming mind-setting! Great understanding on human condition for healing the World✌🏽🙏👏Every one must read! Thanks for sharing .Fingers crossed
Love & Light were always the instinctive answer to our freedom!Wonderful breakthrough for the World!
You may have found the answer- but how do you implement a solution...?
Hallelujah at last! Love all Serve all
It’s great to have your interest and support Maire, thank you. As you absorb all this further, you will begin to appreciate more deeply that this information actually defends the dark side of ourselves, and paradoxically, it was only this understanding that would allow us to put that destructive behaviour behind us.With regard to the role of scientists, they, just like everyone have been suffering from the human condition which means we have all been living in fearful denial of it to cope. The whole scientific paradigm has been necessarily mechanistic and that does limit their ability to think truthfully about the human situation, but it did lead crucially to finding the essential workings of our world. This work is what was needed for a holistic thinker, such as Jeremy, to pull all the pieces together and solve the human condition once and for all.All the traits you list such as competitiveness, egocentricity, commercialisation, hierarchy, racism, the destruction of the environment, anxiety, depression are just symptoms of the human condition which has been our necessarily upsetting but unavoidable journey to enlightenment. This finally brings understanding to our upset selves and world and brings so much incredible meaning to it, we can see that all the pain, suffering, dysfunction and disintegration of ourselves and society has all been for the most heroic reason. The reason humanity are ‘slaves to the system’ and in a ‘trance like robot state’ is all due to the human condition, the 2 million year conflict between our instincts and intellect. Bringing understanding to this conflict, this real psychologically redeeming, relieving and transforming explanation is what Jeremy has delivered, and what will end human suffering at its source, and unite the human race. So yes, we can truly ‘wake up’ now and remove our ‘shackles’ because we are loved and defended to our core, freedom really is on for young and old.For a greater understanding of how it was the ‘right-wing who have supported the upsetting battle to find knowledge that held the moral highground, not the pseudo idealistic left-wing’ as Jeremy mentions in THE Interview above, I would recommend Video/Freedom Essay 14.Awesome
So insightful! I belief with this knowledge the world will start to a better place. Thank you so much.
So fascinating....Some of it was very deep...but I did understand most of it. A real eye opening context to how us humans live & act out our lives. Very interesting interview. A lot better than some things that are shown on Fb. I really enjoyed reading this. Thank You.
This is absolutely fascinating, explained in an easy to understand fashion. I’ve always searched for the truth, everything felt oddly wrong, now I understand lose myself to find me. That’s exactly how it was several years ago after finding myself due to personal sadness. This has been easy for me to understand due to that reason. Almost stripping oneself of everything down to the bone and rebuilding each segment with love, truth- trusting own instinct, understanding, patience and faith. Thank you so much. Light and love Linda Harrington
I agree with the sentiments in the other comments - this is a brilliant interview to watch. The incredibly concise presentation by Jeremy allows so much understanding to flood into your system, opening up a whole new landscape of understanding. The relief and amazement fills every cell of your body. An extraordinary experience. And I have to say having this transcript is so helpful to read through as I listen to Jeremy and Craig. A great resource to have alongside this '“most important interview of all time”.
The interview is absolutely brilliant. It is so clear.
Craig Conway & Jeremy Griffith both are Man with Difference in their own field & interview is approved by Professor Harry Conway. I read all the four section. It contains different Books,their authors references & as a layman I understand it. It shows great passion & devotion of Jeremy Griffith to the subject. This interview should be shared with all the Ambassadors of all the Nations to watch them. After their positive review it should be Telecast & Broadcast into their nation with dubbed & subtitled into local languages. Let policy makers & people have firm understanding. if individual change converts into Mass Movement it will be Paradigm shift.Let all the ambassador convert into Ambassador of Love & this Earth become Garden of Eden.
This really is the most precious and important presentation. It is THE Interview as Jeremy Griffith so brilliantly ‘actually solves the underlying issue in all human affairs of the human condition.’ Humanity has been thrown the ultimate lifeline - we humans are finally defended and explained and understood and liberated in this one extraordinary hour! As Professor Harry Prosen has said this brings about ‘the psychological rehabilitation of the human race’.
If you just watch one video in your life make sure it is this
The truth will set you free and that is exactly what Jeremy Griffith’s explanation does! The depth and clarity of Jeremy’s world saving presentation in THE Interview and the deeper, lasting solution it provides to all the chaos and suffering in human life, make it immeasurable how precious and enlightening this presentation is for the world. The truth is what our hearts and minds have needed. This is the gift of all gifts for the whole human race and the future. Thank you Jeremy and Craig
Wow! What an interview. Just brilliant. Thank you Craig It was only a matter of time before some media outlet got hold of Jeremy Griffiths work and played it for all to see. At least now people will have the chance to really listen to and absorb Jeremy’s explanations on the most important topic on Earth - the Human Condition. Solving the Human Condition is literally the only thing that can save the world. There is nothing else. Only the truth can set us free and here it is. All in this brilliant interview and the greatest book ever written FREEDOM. The holy grail of understanding and freedom from the HC awaits you. Thank you Jeremy. Thank you Craig. This will be the interview that sets us free.
All the great questions in human life are discussed openly and freely during this incredible discussion between Jeremy Griffith and Craig Conway. What’s particularly amazing is the breadth and scope of what this interview covers about the human story in just a short hour - from the clash between our instincts and intellect, all the way through to how we each can become free of our own selfish pre-occupation and collectively, save the world! An absolutely astonishing result of decades of refinement of the presentation of these absolutely critical, world-saving insights.
What a fantastic interview that takes you through the whole human story from our pre-conscious beginnings as a species, to our current seemingly dire predicament, to how we can now turn it all around for ourselves and the future generations of humans, now that the human condition is solved. And all in just 1 hour!
You have to listen to this hour of brilliance - it explains our species past, present and, if we embrace this biological understanding, a cooperative loving future. What have you got to lose! In deep deep gratitude to Jeremy Griffith and Craig Conway
Wow, that was the clearest and subsequently most exciting communication from Griffith yet !!!!! If you’ve been struggling to understand this explanation or you feel like your missing something then you have to watch or listen to The Interview. It’s just so simply explained. I’d recommend watching it because Conway totally gets it and his excitement is contagious. Congratulations and thank you to both Griffith and Conway because it was another amazing moment for me and I’m backing it going viral.
For every question asked by Craig Conway in this interview there is a clear, logical and conclusive answer given by Jeremy Griffith. This is testament to a biological understanding of the human condition that can finally reconcile our embattled selves and forge a higher level of consciousness. What a wonderful platform and enlightening discussion that is needed for humans to burst out of a cave of denial, bring peace and heal the suffering in our world.
Pure AWESOME Watched it and shared it 🔆❤😁
Another brilliant masterpiece from Jeremy Griffith! The world is teetering on the edge of imploding as a result of 2 million years of anger, frustration, confusion and insecurity of our worth as humans and here, in just 1 precious, golden hour, Jeremy explains why and in so doing solves the human condition and shows us how all the pain and suffering we’ve endured can be fixed up up straight away. I love the description about THE Interview, as it surely is ‘the now urgently needed road map for the complete rehabilitation and transformation of our lives and world!’ A must-watch for everyone, thank you Jeremy and Craig for this most wonderful of all presentations.
I’ve been around this information for more than 25 years and this interview by Craig Conway and Jeremy Griffith is just the cleanest, purest, easily accessible and succinct presentation I’ve ever seen of Jeremy’s world-saving explanation of the human condition. And it is world-saving, well it’s saved my life many times over, I just can’t even imagine where I’d be if I hadn’t come across this understanding of us humans. This interview is rightly called THE interview because there’s never been a true understanding of the human condition before, and never been such a succinct presentation of the understanding. I really think this is going to be a game-changer for the human race because, as Craig says in the interview, the world can’t cope with any more upset behaviour, and this interview should go viral it’s so clean and straight forward to follow. Michael Leunig had a cartoon in the Sydney Morning Herald on Sat about how everyone’s deludedly thinking this coronavirus pandemic is going to allow everyone to build a new and better world because there’ll be no fundamental change, but wait until this interview starts getting spread around and everyone will realise a fundamental change is now possible. Someone should send this interview to Leunig. Just share this interview and help this real love go viral, please, please, please!!
A tight, clear presentation of Griffith’s breakthrough treatise. Brilliant!
You can’t overstate how important this interview is, I completely agree with Prof Prosen. I know it ends the turmoil, conflict and suffering in human life because that’s exactly what it has done for my life, it is just so vital that every human on the planet is given the opportunity to watch it. Jeremy Griffith is absolutely extraordinary in his profound clarity and insight into the source of all our problems of the human condition. In such a short time we are completely provided with ‘the road map for the complete rehabilitation and transformation of our lives and world’ no less, it’s so all-understanding and exciting and wondrous!! I will be sharing this from now to kingdom come! Humanity is FREE!!
A brilliant, articulate and really, really engaging and mind-opening presentation of biological thinking that is on a scale that can’t actually be measured!! So much is packed in to this interview, but it’s all amazingly accessible and understandable and relatable. A great lead-in to learning more in the video series that follows it.
I am astounded by how much information is covered in this incredible interview, it really is world changing and saving! The implications of this are just so exciting now that we can fully understand ourselves and where we come from, and we can all participate in bringing about a free, happy and meaningful future. Hooray!!!!
Who would have thought the human condition and its resolution could have been explained so simply. Fantastic presentation.
Interesting
