Comments on THE Interview

Even though this explanation has deeply resonated with you for you know it is right Martina there is still a lot to absorb to know just how all-clarifying, all-redeeming, all-reconciling, all-healing and all-liberating it is! With more digestion we suggest you will see it isn’t too late to save the world as long as people, who do appreciate its truth, support it. It is certainly the 11th hour, but as Jeremy Griffith explains, once this takes off, this information will turn things around almost overnight, see FAQ 1.4. We recommend Jeremy’s Freedom Essays about ‘Do we fail or do we make it?’ (see F. Essays 55—58). These present a fearlessly honest analysis of the state of the world followed by how the extraordinary transforming power of this information can save the world. So come and help us do exactly that and register for our live events with Jeremy Griffith and join our WTM Community Facebook Group to share in this transforming knowledge.

Yes, at last we can understand where humans’ ‘damaged’, what historically has been termed ‘evil’, behaviour comes from. As THE Interview explains all humans are born with loving moral instincts but we all now variously suffer from a psychosis due to the human condition and, in the extreme, that psychologically conflicted upset state produces extremely destructive behaviour. Of course this breakthrough explanation doesn’t condone or sanction the horrendous attrocities humans can commit rather, through bringing compassionate understanding to the source of humans’ upset behaviour, it gives us the power to ameliorate and thus subside and ultimately eliminate it, see FAQ 1.38 Aren’t some people just born psychopathic, or even ‘evil’? / How does this explanation rehabilitate people capable of ‘evil’ behaviour? / Does this condone ‘evil’ behaviour?

Explanation of the human condition presents an entirely new way of understanding humans and our world Netta so it does take some adjustment time. Jeremy Griffith mentions Moses, along with other thinkers, who have recognised the instinct vs intellect elements in creating the human condition. In fact Jeremy explains that the prophet Moses went as close as you could possibly go in those pre-scientific times to actually explain the human condition when he said “we took the fruit from the tree of knowledge [became conscious] and were disobedient [obviously meaning we developed a conscious free will that defied our already established instincts that had been controlling our lives] and became perpetrators of sin [sufferers of psychologically upset, divisive behaviour]”. Jeremy’s work demystifies religion and reconciles it with science by bringing biological understanding to such pre-scientific concepts as the story of Adam and Eve. You might find FAQ 6.3 ‘Does this undermine religion/God’ and FAQ 6.2 ‘What is God’ helpful. Also Jeremy’s Freedom Essays 38 – 41, which further decipher religion, are absolutely fascinating.

As with any new scientific breakthrough in history it will take time to gain mainstream acceptance, and from there break through the bastions of power in the world. 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 generate will solve our problems very quickly because, as THE Interview explains, instead of being selfishly preoccupied with power, fame, fortune and glory, to the point that we would sometimes come into conflict with one another as a result, 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. Jeremy Griffith elaborates on this need for power, control and domination in Freedom Essay 62 where he gives a full presentation of the entire human journey and how understanding of the human condition now makes possible the real therapy and rehabilitation of the human race.

THE Interview explains we are all born with a moral sense of right and wrong—an ethical compass—expressed as our conscience. The great question that raises then, is why do we lose that moral orientation and behave so unethically? Appealing to a set of teachings certainly helped prevent humanity from destroying itself, but ultimately we needed to find the redeeming scientific explanation for why when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless are we so angry, competitive and selfish. Answering this question required finding the clarifying difference between the way the intellect and instincts work, and that is the great biological breakthrough Jeremy presents in THE Interview and his book FREEDOM. What Jeremy is putting forward is that for there to be a fundamental change in our human situation we had to understand the human condition – humans’ capacity for right and wrong – from a biological perspective.

Once people gain an appreciation for how all-clarifying, all-reconciling and all-liberating this knowledge is its implementation happens quickly as you can see from the ecstatic responses at the top of our homepage! What is so challenging is breaking through the historic fear we understandably have to discussion of the human condition and also the resistance humans have to change (see Video/Freedom Essay 1). So, as with any new scientific breakthrough in history, it needs courageous pioneers to initiate it, and then the universal change will take time to implement (see FAQ 1.7), but once this information gets a foothold through enough people developing a deep appreciation and desire to support it our problems will be solved very quickly! As THE Interview explains instead of us being preoccupied with proving ourselves artificially (through seeking power, fame, fortune and glory) 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 (you can read more about how this solves everything in FAQ 1.6. So exciting and relieving is this freedom from the human condition that everyone will want it so it will catch on like wildfire and this is already happening! Apart from the excited responses our homepage shows the rapidly growing appreciation and support for the WTM with outstanding commendations from thought leaders and WTM Centres all over the world! Also, every day more people join our Facebook Group and register for our live events with Jeremy Griffith to share in this transforming knowledge so we hope you do too!

Jeremy Griffith’s definitive book FREEDOM: The End Of The Human Condition is freely available on our homepage here (along with his other key books including the booklet version of THE Interview) to read online or download (no email required).

Yes, humans have certainly appeared to be extraordinarily irrational. As the great polymath Arthur Koestler wrote, ‘Man had somehow acquired the “unique, murderous, delusional streak” that propelled him, inevitably, to murder, to torture and to war’. However to actually heal this ‘irrational world’, appealing to a set of ethics was not enough, ultimately we needed to find the scientific explanation for why when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless are we so angry, competitive and selfish. Answering this question required finding the clarifying difference between the way the intellect and instincts work, and that is the great biological breakthrough Jeremy presents in THE Interview and his book FREEDOM. What Jeremy is putting forward is that for there to be a fundamental change in our human situation we had to understand the human condition – humans’ capacity for good and evil – from a biological perspective.

If you never listen to an interview again, but listen to this one with Jeremy Griffith. This is what the world wants and needs to achieve and when you listen to this man and how simple this is, the people of this world will have come full circle and will live in harmony for ever more as it was meant to be from the beginning of time. Awesome, mind boggling, and simply amazing😊🙏❤️

    Thank you for your comment Javier. Part 4 of THE Interview is titled ‘How does the psychological rehabilitation actually occur?’ and explains how this understanding frees you from the universal psychosis caused by the human condition. Also, at the end of Part 4, the viewer is referred to the video series that follows THE Interview which elaborates on what is presented and includes Video/Freedom Essay 5 ‘The Transformation of the Human Race!!’     To briefly answer your question here. Understanding why, when the ideals are to be loving and selfless, are we so competitive and selfish, gives us the ability, for the first time, to understand every aspect of human behaviour. The explanation quickly changes how you view humans, and most importantly yourself, and your behaviour will change naturally as a result, see FAQ 1.5. As distinguished psychiatrist Professor Harry Prosen (who wrote the foreword to Jeremy Griffith’s definitive book FREEDOM) said “What Griffith is presenting is understanding of the source insecurity that the whole human race suffers from for having destroyed our species’ innocent soul. It is a universal self-blame that his understanding at last provides healing insight into. All human behavior is saturated with that universal insecure, depressing state and resulting anger, egocentricity and alienation that has developed from it, but we finally have the compassionate foundation insight needed to dismantle all that ‘upset’/psychosis. So the real psychotherapy of our collective and individual psychoses can begin” see FAQ 1.34.

Thank you for your comment Verrina. If you would like to help spread awareness of the WTM’s work we suggest you read our FAQ 3.4 ‘How can I help the WTM’ and FAQ 3.3 ‘How do I contact my nearest WTM Centre’. In time you may even like to consider opening a WTM Centre in Memphis yourself! see FAQ 3.6.

As THE Interview discusses, Jeremy Griffith’s work presents a new paradigm that dares to confront the historically unbearably confronting and off-limits subject of the human condition so there is a lot to absorb and consider. THE Interview explains there is a psychological dimension to our behaviour, that we humans have suffered not from the genetic-opportunism-based, non-psychological animal condition, but the conscious-mind-based, psychologically troubled human condition. This is presented in greater detail in Video/Freedom Essays 2 and 14 if you would like to explore this further.

THE Interview explains all humans are born with an all-loving and compassionate soul or instinctive self from which our ‘spirituality’ is sourced, but that we departed from that state because of the conscious mind’s necessary search for knowledge. The fundamental explanation presented is very simple but there is much to absorb about this new paradigm of thinking. We recommend re-watching the presentation, especially Part 3 ‘How did we humans acquire our instinctive cooperative and loving moral conscience?’. Also WTM FAQ 1.26 ‘What is soul’ discusses the depth of sensitivity this pure and truly moral part of ourselves can access.

Jeremy Griffith makes the point in this presentation that from ancient times many thinkers have identified the elements of instinct and intellect involved in creating the human condition, however the great breakthrough science can now provide is the clarifying explanation of the nature of the conflict between them. Understanding that the gene-based learning system can orientate a species, but that the nerve-based learning system is insightful, allows us to understand that the conscious mind was right to defy our instinctive self and search for understanding. Without that explanation the conflict could not be resolved (you might be interested in Video/Freedom Essay 4 where this is explained in more detail). Now that we have the real defence and reinforcement of our fundamental goodness, all our artificial defences and reinforcements are obsoleted, they are no longer needed. So yes, understanding does heal a psychosis, because ultimately, that psychosis was based on the conscious mind wrongly believing that it ‘bad’ to disobey our instincts. See FAQ 1.13 ‘Is this new or original’ and FAQ 1.5 ‘Why understanding solves everything’. Also, THE Interview explains this is not some pseudo idealistic vision of utopia, rather it is a first-principle biological explanation for why we haven’t been cooperative. It is only with the intellect defended for why it had to defy our ‘idealistic’ instincts and become ‘realistic’, that the cooperative world becomes possible, or even legitimate. FAQ 6.5 is important to read as it further explains the critical difference between Jeremy’s work and pseudo idealistic movements.

    The problem is not that enough people don’t choose reason over instinctive behaviour; no, as Jeremy explains in THE Interview, our instinctive self is all-loving and all-sensitive, and it is our supposedly ‘rational’ ‘reasonable’ conscious mind that is psychologically upset angry, egocentric and alienated because of its necessary pursuit of knowledge. As such, it is no surprise that Buddhist philosophy or ‘choosing to be good’ has not stopped war or the destruction of our world and the disintegration of society that is happening everywhere we look. Indeed, nothing to date has brought an end to the upset state of the human condition—it’s still rampant everywhere. The only way to actually end suffering was to deal with the source of our species’ corrupted human condition and bring relieving understanding to it, which is what Jeremy Griffith’s treatise does and why it is heralded as the biological breakthrough that can save the world, see FAQ 1.3 and FAQ 1.6.     Also FAQ 1.16 explains the human condition has been a terrifying subject because it confronts us all with just how insecure and alienated we have become and this causes an initial ‘deaf effect’ which makes ‘hearing’ the explanation difficult. Jeremy explains we have become so alienated that what was needed to solve the human condition wasn’t greater IQ but soundness or security of self, see this section from his bestselling book A Species In Denial.

At last we can understand humans have loving and cooperative instincts and once lived in total harmony with each other and nature. What is of critical importance is Jeremy Griffith’s work explains WHY we have lost this ability which the more innocent races and people you mention still maintain a degree of access to. This explanation answers the age-old question of why when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless are we so angry, competitive and selfish. It is only with the intellect defended for why it had to defy our loving instincts and become angry, egocentric and alienated, can we legitimately return to ‘brotherly love’ or the nurturing, loving and sensitive state we once lived in, see FAQ 1.5. You might be interested in watching Reginald Khotshobe’s video, who founded WTM Eastern Cape in South Africa, because Reginald also equates Jeremy’s work with ‘Ubuntu’.

    Thank you for your comment Marlene. There is no suggestion that Plato or the other writers were describing the time they lived in – they were describing our species’ distant past. Indeed, in THE Interview, Jeremy introduces Plato saying that “Plato gave this very similar description of description of our species’ pre-conscious time in innocence.” ‘Pre-conscious’ refers to a time millions of years ago.     With regard to humans understanding cause and effect, it is explained in THE Interview that consciousness, which is the ability to understand cause and effect, emerged some 2 million years ago, not 150 years ago. The reference to 150 years is in regard to science’s ability to explain the human condition, and is as follows: “Precisely, it’s only in the last 150 years or so that science has given us A: the ability to know that the gene-based natural selection process gives species orientations to the world; and B: the knowledge of our nerves and how they are able to remember events, which, much developed, has led to our mind being able to sufficiently understand the relationship between cause and effect to become conscious of, or aware of, or intelligent about those relationships.”     You may be interested in the transcript of THE Interview, which is available here on our website.

Yes, with the human condition at last solved we will be able to legitimately return to our sensitive soul’s world but for that to occur we must get these crucial, world-saving answers out into the world. Only the psychosis-addressing-and-solving, real explanation of the human condition can stop the destruction of our world and the disintegration of society that is happening everywhere we look and that must be our focus before exploring other dimensions of the universe. Once we have mainstream support for this information the importance of our soul and all its sensitivity will be fulfilled like never before. As Jeremy Griffith talks about in his interview with Australian broadcaster Caroline Jones: “All our upsets can subside and then we will become sensitive, incredibly aware. There’s a world out there of so much beauty that we can now tap that we’ve never been able to tap, and occasionally a great artist might just make some, cut a little window into that magic world through which we could all get a little access to the paradise. But there’s a world where one minute of the future, the beauty encapsulated in that would be more than all the beauty we can accumulate in a whole lifetime. There is nothing that man has created that would remotely compare with the magic of our lost paradise.” You can listen to or read this interview in WTM More Good Info Email 2.

While Buddhism and other religions contain all manner of truths about human life, it is all from a pre-scientific view. Ultimately we needed to find the scientific explanation for why when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless are we so angry, competitive and selfish. There have been thousands of years of different techniques to try and achieve enlightenment by calming, repressing and even transcending our psychologically upset human condition and deferring to the soundness of our soul in one form or another, but none of them have brought an end to the upset state of the human condition—it’s still rampant everywhere. The reason is because they don’t solve the human condition. They don’t deal with the source of our species’ corrupted condition and bring relieving understanding to it. This is what Jeremy Griffith’s treatise does and why it is heralded as the biological breakthrough that can save the world. See FAQ 6.5 ‘Is this just another self-help, New Age, pseudo idealistic, superficial-treatment-of-psychosis type movement?’

Thank you for your thoughts Martin. Practices such as meditation have been invaluable tools in helping us cope with the upset human condition, calm the troubled mind and access our soul, but, they have failed to produce a lasting solution to the destruction and devastation we see all around us. Fundamentally they are about escaping the pain in our brains, rather than confronting and solving it, and thereby its destructive effects, at its source which Jeremy Griffith’s treatise does. Yes at last we have the key to the transformation of the whole world, see FAQ 6.5 about the important difference in these approaches.

WTM FAQ 1.14 explains why this ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition isn’t yet mainstream; it explains why, if this is such a breakthrough, we need to promote it. The answer is that the human condition has historically been an off-limits subject, and as a result people can find it difficult to take in or ‘hear’ discussion of it; others can even become hostile to opening the whole arena. FAQ 1.14 further explains that the explanation of the human condition isn’t mainstream yet because the subject of the human condition is an anathema for mechanistic science; which is also why we have had to establish an independent organisation that, amongst other things, uses advertising to offer people the opportunity to look into this knowledge. The world desperately needs this redeeming, rehabilitating explanation of the human condition, and for this reason the WTM is doing everything it can to disseminate it. Due to its world saving importance, all information and materials are provided free of charge.

The core premise of THE Interview is that ALL HUMANS ARE EQUALLY GOOD and equally heroic! We no longer have to just believe men and women are equal we can understand they are! To quote molecular biologist Dr Anna Fitzgerald from her commendation of this 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”—see Freedom Essay 9 titled ‘This is the real liberation of women’.

As THE Interview explains consciousness is a result of our biology, see WTM FAQ 5.4 ‘What is consciousness? / Why is it that humans became conscious while other animals haven’t? / How did consciousness emerge in humans?’ However, as you will read, becoming conscious was dependent on being able to think meaningfully, and because the underlying theme of the universe is integration (see FAQ 5.3), that meant our distant ape ancestors had to first become selfless, which occurred through the nurturing based love-indoctrination process (see FAQ 5.2). So in this sense, becoming conscious did require ‘tapping into’ the integrative nature of the universe.

Thank you for such wonderful comment Geetha. Yes the change from living in denial of our corrupted condition to being able to face and heal it does represent a massive paradigm shift, and to assist with that adjustment there is a great deal of information on our website. For instance on our homepage there is a series of videos that elaborate on what is presented in THE Interview.

As Jeremy Griffith stresses in Part 2 of THE Interview, finding the answer to the human condition, which is the only thing that can allow us to reconcile the dualities within us and bring lasting ‘self-realisation’, ultimately depended on being able to explain our biology. There have been thousands of years of different techniques for calming, restraining, repressing, and even transcending our psychologically upset human condition and deferring to the soundness of our soul in one form or another, but none of them have brought an end to the upset state of the human condition—it’s still rampant everywhere. The reason is because they don’t solve the human condition. They don’t deal with the source of our species’ corrupted condition and bring relieving understanding to it. This is what Jeremy Griffith’s treatise does and why it is heralded as the biological breakthrough that can save the world.
