Learn, live, hope for the human nature.

Mj Jacobs

It is so sad that the human species can not recognise this human condition ~ The story of the stork, is so simple and it explains this human species perfectly ~ Thankyou for allowing people to open their minds to a giving situation, which is within them ~ 6% of the species are aware of this whole story and that is quite a few people so they have started this recognition ~ Join the 6% and recognise and embrace the reality of what is really going on ~ Thankyou for this interview, it is so very pleasing, that at last people can recognise who they actually are on this beautiful planet but…. Let’s hope that these unaware humans are able to change ~ this should be taught at school ~ thanks again Mj

WTM Admin

Hi Mj, we appreciate your interest, and while we are not sure what you are referring to as the “6%” who “aware of this whole story”, we are certainly working hard to bring this breakthrough understanding of the human condition to the entire world!

I always saw it in a spiritual way, but now hearing it combined with the scientific way is just brilliant and gives so much hope and relief, thank you for interview 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️

Shomari Wright

Very interesting

Luci L. Wright

Wow! This is fascinating, informative and transformative. It definitely provides answers to a lot of questions.

Tracey

I remember being a young girl and resigning! It was hard! I forgot about it until I read Freedom (2x). What do I do now? I’d like to listen to chapters 4-9. I’ve watched all the videos twice and all the books and essays. It makes sense. 💕. Thank you Jeremy

WTM Admin

    Yes, Tracey, the psychological process Jeremy Griffith terms ‘Resignation’ is the most significant psychological event in human life (for readers of these comments see Freedom Essay 30 titled ‘Resignation’). So it represents a horrifically “hard” time for virtually every adolescent, as it’s when we face and wrestle deeply with the issue of not only the imperfection of the non-ideal human-condition-stricken world around us, but also of the imperfection of our own behaviour — that we too suffer from anger, selfishness, meanness and indifference to others. But having no understanding of the human condition, and thus no answer to this confronting self-realisation, meant that the more we each grappled with the issue, the more depressing our thinking became until we realised that we had no choice but to ‘resign’ to living in denial of it. As Jeremy explains in Part 2 of this interview “we’ve had to live in denial of our corrupted, psychologically upset condition while we couldn’t explain it”.     Regarding the audio version of FREEDOM, we are still in the process of completing the final chapters 4-9, with chapter 4 not far off! (For readers these and all our many audios are available on our homepage.) And in terms of the next step, explanation of the human condition does produce a huge paradigm shift in our thinking, which takes time to digest so we encourage people to take their time as it represents a big adjustment and also our Facebook Group is a wonderful place to tune into the discussion on how we can live with the personal transparency and confronting nature of the human condition.

Redendeleon

Enlightening. Getting into the root of the enigma of the conscious mind. To apply unconditional love as in a mother’s nurturing the offspring of caring and unconditional love without expecting anything in return.

WTM Admin

Yes, Redendeleon, now that we can explain and defend the competitive, selfish and aggressive upset state of the human condition and thus understand why the present human-condition-afflicted human race hasn’t been able to nurture our infants as much as their instincts expect, it becomes safe to finally admit just how important nurturing is, in fact, we can now admit that nurturing is what made us human — that it was women’s maternal love that gave us our moral soul and created humanity! You can read more about the nurturing based ‘love indoctrination’ process that created our moral soul / instinctive self in Freedom Essay 21 and chapter 5 of FREEDOM.

Annie Delaney

Brilliant. I am in awe!

Cynthia Hendrickson

I just watched the 4 part interview and it resonates exactly with what I have been asserting in my own bumbling, uneducated way. There is an enormous resistance from most people in my life but my heart, after realizing my own ego needed work and release, knew the truth and it cannot be shaken. Thank you so much for posting this. I feel supported in who I am as a human being. Cynthia

Alastair Sinclair

Really interesting views and makes so much sense

Moyra Mulholland

I think Native Americans come close to “getting this” Their idea of Wetiko, this psychosis of mankind.

WTM Admin

Yes, there is great profundity in the Wetiko concept of an evil spirit embodying greed and excess who can possess humans – as indeed there is in so much mythology and religion. Ultimately however, it is all from a pre-scientific view. Eventually we needed to find the scientific explanation for why when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless we suffer from the so-called Wetiko spirit of destruction; yes, why 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.

Moyra Mulholland

Why the total left bashing? I don’t get it! What a way to alienate people from what could be a world changing idea? Why did he bring politics into it! Bad move in my opinion. Unless it’s reverse psychology to get the “right” onboard….

WTM Admin

Jeremy Griffith’s biological ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition allows us to understand the real merits and liabilities of both the left and right wing. His work certainly doesn’t excuse the right-wing for its corrupting behaviour, nor unfairly focus on the failing of the left, which is that its insistence on ideal behaviour had the effect of oppressing the search for knowledge, but rather brings a profound understanding to both sides which ultimately will bring an end to the whole ugly business of politics. This is fully explained in our FAQs about politics.

Gerard M Farley

WOW enlightening

Gordon Montgomery

How is this not simply a reworking of Kahnemann’s S1/S2?

WTM Admin

Psychologist Daniel Kahneman does recognise we have two learning systems—our instinct (what he terms System 1) and our intellect (System 2). However, as THE Interview explains, despite these elements have been recognised by many thinkers throughout history and that our condition is caused by a clash between the two, what was missing from the analysis of all these thinkers was the ability to explain WHY this conflict occurred. As Jeremy says in Part 2 of this interview “while all contemporary thinkers have had the benefit of science having revealed the difference between the gene-based and nerve-based learning systems, and have therefore had the means to truthfully explain the human condition, those who did recognise the basic instinct vs intellect elements didn’t take their thinking far enough to actually explain the human condition.” This what is unique about Jeremy’s synthesis. He actually solves the dilemma of human condition of ‘why, when our instincts are to be loving and selfless, are we so competitive and selfish?’ by clarifying the difference between the way the intellect and instincts work, which is that the gene-based learning system (instincts) can orientate a species, but that the nerve-based learning system (intellect) is insightful, and that is the great breakthrough his work represents. This is fully explained in our FAQ 1.13 ‘Is this idea original or new? / How does biologist Jeremy Griffith’s ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition differ from other theories that recognise these elements?’

Hello it was amazing and simple at the same time fully interesting i really hope unconditionel love will be understood soon 😊 and help others in need to . Nathalie 🥰

Denzel

Thank you for this amazing opportunity to learn more about myself

Theresa Sanders

Unfortunately this DOESN’T solve the problem, as it gives only a predominant Western Thought & Experience, leaving out half the World & the knowledge & wisdom of Indigenous populations. Please read Anthropologist & Archeologists Graeber & Wengrows THE DAWN OF EVERYTHING, as well as Psychiatrist Gabor Mates THE MYTH OF NORMAL! #SacredCircleOfLife!

WTM Admin

    THE Interview presents biologist Jeremy Griffith’s thesis that all humans variously suffer from the human condition—a universal psychosis caused by a clash between our instinct and intellect—therefore, we suggest that the more you digest it, the more you will realise that it explains all humanity’s different schools of thought, mythologies and cultures including indigenous cultures, non-Western thought, or even getting to the bottom of Gabor Maté’s understanding of trauma and human psychology.     For instance, at last we can explain that the more innocent or sheltered ‘races’ (ethnic groups) have not been as exposed to humanity’s heroic battle to find knowledge as less sheltered races, and so they aren’t as psychologically upset as those less sheltered races. So yes, more sheltered races have more affinity with our instinctive soulful, cooperative way of living and nature and can still access that “knowledge & wisdom”. However, all humans are now part of the extremely upset stage of humanity, H. sapiens sapiens, and are therefore nowhere near as innocent as humans were some 2 million years ago when the battle of the human condition first emerged. Also, most significantly, despite the differing levels of upset due to everyone’s different encounters with humanity’s heroic battle to find knowledge, we are all equally good. You might like to read our FAQ 9.1 about how this puts an end to racism, and for a testimonial on the power of this knowledge to end racism, we recommend the presentations from Franklin Mukakanga and Refentse Molosiwa in Video/Freedom Essay 8.     With regard to David Graeber and David Wengrow’s book, we suggest that the insecurity and need for reinforcement that is the primary characteristic of the instinct vs intellect clash is the real source of humanity’s need for domination, not systems of control that originate in the ‘state’, as Graeber and Wengrow suggest. Social systems are a reflection of our individual psychosis – they do not create the human condition, they are a reflection of it.     Physician Gabor Maté’s work courageously defies the ‘genetic explanation’ for our psychologically upset state, and instead recognises the profound impact of ‘childhood experience’. What is unique about Jeremy’s work however, and why it is so important, is that it gets to the original source of all the ‘upset’ and fundamentally lifts the ‘burden of guilt’ from the human race and allows us to forgive ourselves and others and finally end our psychologically troubled human condition and therefore it does “solve the problem”. As the distinguished psychiatrist Professor Harry Prosen (who wrote the Introduction to Jeremy’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.

Ruth Wake

This is great indeed. Thank you Sir and God Bless you.

Janell Ellis

Thank you so much!

Marshall Mackey

Very inspiring, and hopefully understood by the entire world. And quiet as kept, it can only happen if love becomes more prevalent in our society. The new reconstruction of the human condition needs to work for the sake of all mankind. And it needs to start now.

Ricki Soria

Absolutely need this conversation throughout of humanity at this point before we implode.

Thank you professor. Is time, we need to explain human behavior. To end the suffering in the world. And thank you for teaching us that we can never understand human behavior without consulting the author. Thank you and God bless.

Mayra

This is much needed today. Thank You

Doneen Gayle

Sounds too easy and good to be true !

WTM Admin

Given the great hope and faith of humanity has been to find redeeming understanding of our divisive human condition, when that understanding finally arrives it can seem too good to be true! But we suggest Doneen that the more you digest Jeremy Griffith’s ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation, the more you will realise how realistic and accountable it is in getting to the source of all humanity’s psychological upset, and from there how it makes possible the wonderful and reconciled world we have all dreamed of which is evidenced on our Transformation page! Also you may find our FAQ 1.6 ‘Why does understanding of the human condition solve everything?’ most helpful.

Lyne Renaud

I’m just trying to understand but so interesting I am listening very carefully, very interesting

WTM Admin

It is wonderful you are persevering Lyne as the substance of the argument is obviously resonating with you. The fundamental explanation is very simple but, as explained in THE Interview, it does open up the historically off-limits subject of the human condition so people can initially struggle to fully grasp or ‘hear’ what is being explained, there can be an initial ‘deaf effect’ (see FAQ 1.16). We suggest re-watching THE Interview and then watch it’s companion presentation The Great Guilt that causes the Deaf Effect which comprehensively deals with our understandable fear and cynicism about confronting the human condition. It includes examples of people overcoming the deaf effect and it is an absolutely astonishingly revealing presentation. You can watch or read it here on our website.

Jeffrey Curran

the core to the whole argument appears to be the two differing thought processing systems within the human being, and how we learn to master them to gain fully from their, mastering! A GREAT DEALOF LEARNING AND UNDERSTANDING FOR EVERYONE . We must be patient , in our appreciation of all that we are to discover.

WTM Admin

    Thank you very much for your comment Jeffrey and yes there is a great deal of understanding presented but, as you describe, the core of the argument is very simple in the sense of understanding the difference between two learning systems. That is what is so significant about this breakthrough. Jeremy Griffith has answered the essential question of why, when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless are we so angry, competitive and selfish by explaining the difference between the way the intellect and instincts work. As he explains in Part 2 of THE Interview: “until science revealed the difference between the gene-based and nerve-based learning systems—which is that genes can orientate but nerves need to understand—that we were finally in a position to explain the good reason for our angry, egocentric and alienated human condition.” (For readers of these comments who haven’t yet watched THE Interview FAQ 1.3 gives a very brief summary of the explanation.)     Your words “We must be patient, in our appreciation of all that we are to discover” provide such perfect counsel because this critical new science presents a huge paradigm shift in our thinking. As Jeremy points out (also in Part 2) the issue of the human condition has been such a denied and off-limits subject that confronting it represents the “biggest of all blasphemies” so it does take time and patience to consider and adjust to all these understandings explain—as you say “to gain fully from their mastering!”.

Christina G

Absolutely fascinating, in love with ancient knowledge and understanding, science is amazing truth

Mark Jennings

So ,how come the world isn’t saved then ?

WTM Admin

    Thanks for your question Mark. As Jeremy Griffith points out in Part 2 of THE Interview the issue of the human condition has been such a denied and off-limits subject that confronting it represents the “biggest of all blasphemies”, and how “science progresses funeral by funeral” when it comes to supporting big paradigm shifts like this. So it is up to the resolve of individuals, including scientists, to help the WTM break through the road block of the legitimate fear and resulting deaf effect the subject of the human conditon causes in most people, see FAQ 1.14 ‘Why aren’t these ideas mainstream’.     Having said that, as Jeremy explains in chapter 9.9 of his book FREEDOM: “Although this new world for humans, which the World Transformation Movement has been established to facilitate, will, as has been stated, have a slow beginning because humans initially find it difficult even taking in or ‘hearing’ discussion about the human condition, once the WTM is discovered, word of it and what it offers every human and the world will spread like wildfire.’” And so even though we haven’t yet reached the tipping point in terms of awareness of this great breakthrough, you can see from the excitement and relief in our ecstatic responses to THE Interview, we are well on our way! Also, on our homepage, you can see the rapidly growing appreciation and support for Jeremy’s work with outstanding commendations from thought leaders and WTM Centres all over the world!

Bless this Messenger!

Maree Webb

Extremely interesting. I am doing a Self Awareness course at present and this interview has certainly helped me understand so much about myself and others.

WTM Admin

Great to hear Maree. It is astonishing to finally have the human condition solved and be able to understand why we have become so alienated and estranged from our true self as to have lost our self-awareness. This is what is so extraordinary about Jeremy Griffith’s biological treatise, it honestly confronts, explains and defends our upset human condition (our anger, egocentricity and alienation). Only through understanding the dark side of ourselves can we free ourselves from the human condition and truly become self-aware again. You might find our FAQ 6.5 helpful as it explains the critical difference between Jeremy’s work and the self help movement.

This includes joining our popular Facebook Group and registering for free, live, interactive events with Jeremy and others.     Jeremy Griffith’s breakthrough instinct vs intellect explanation of the human condition establishes the equality of all humans and brings compassionate and thus safe understanding to ALL of human behaviour — including why the horror of racism has existed under the duress of the human condition and, most importantly, finally brings it to an end, see FAQ 9.1 ‘How do you explain racism?’. Also, for a testimonial on the power of this knowledge to end racism, we recommend the presentations from Franklin Mukakanga and Refentse Molosiwa in Video/Freedom Essay 8. As well, we are sure you will find our FAQs about how this reconciles science and religion by bringing biological understanding to pre-scientific concepts fascinating, in particular FAQ 6.3 ‘Does this undermine religion/God’ and FAQ 6.2 ‘What is God’.

Saknier

What utter BS. The human condition can easily be explained in one word: SIN. At it’s very core Greed. The only aswer to solve all world problems are unconditiinal love. With this kind of love there will be no hunger, wars, rasism, condemnation ext ext ext. If I really love my fellow humans I would not want or let them suffer in anyway. The only answer to true uncondition love and therefore to solve the ‘human cindition’ is through Jesus Christ.

Stephen Aucoin

Really informative talk. The lights came on and my life had become less complicated than before I listened to that talk. Thank you sir

Rodney Thomas

Understanding about how taking the apple from the tree is a metaphor of how man’s reaching out to find out why we exist.

WTM Admin

Yes, as THE Interview explains, the story of Adam and Eve is a pre-scientific metaphor for the emergence of consciousness and its clash with our pre-established, cooperative loving instincts. When the conscious mind emerged, we had to search for knowledge in order to learn how to use this wonderful tool for self, management, however, when we inevitably deviated from our naturally selected orientations, those instincts in effect criticised the conscious mind, resulting in humans becoming psychologically upset or ‘sinful’ or ‘evil’. However, significantly we can now understand, from scientific first principles, that ‘Adam and Eve’ were ‘good’ to search for knowledge, not bad or ‘evil’; we humans are actually the absolute heroes of the whole story! You might be interested in our FAQs about religion.

Madiha Abrar

Excellent insight

Jacekmis

Yes I agree with everything... But I also know that this Utopia is not achievable with 8 billion people... Why.? Because you need only one bad apple to destroy the balance... This is why we are living from one catastrophy to the other catastrophy and always ending up with the same result...

WTM Admin

We suggest that the more you digest Jeremy Griffith’s ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation, the more you will realise how accountable it is in getting to the source of all humanity’s psychological upset, which in the extreme, produces ruthless, power addicted people, the “bad apples” as you describe them. Of course this breakthrough explanation doesn’t condone or sanction the horrendous atrocities 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?’. Even if, during this period in which the explanation of the human condition is becoming well known, “bad apples” do appear, with more and more people quickly becoming free of the human condition, and therefore able to think selflessly and cleanly, compassionate and effective solutions will easily be arrived at.

Dr Myles Wakeham

Thought provoking, I intend buying the book to increase my understanding of this amazing subject.

Tigist

I loved it & made me really happy, its absolutely brilliant. This is what the world needs, thank you!

Tobias Louw

I’m amazed at how this is advertized as a “new discovery”, since humans have asked and discussed these basic questions for centuries. Its called Philosophy. One of the many answers, similar to this “discovery” is found in Vitalism, or Life Philosophy, that takes its point of departure in a view of ourselves as part of the living, organic order of things.

WTM Admin

While it takes some time to digest, we suggest that what is unique about Jeremy Griffith’s work is that he has answered the essential question of why, when the universal ideals are to be integrative are we so disintegrative? Our endeavours in philosophy, psychology and biology have failed, until now, to provide a truthful, real, fully accountable, genuinely clarifying explanation. 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 here. We suggest FAQ 1.13 ‘Is this original or new?’ and Video/Freedom Essay 4 which expands further on other thinkers (both ancient and contemporary) who have recognised instinct and intellect elements involved in creating the human condition.

Peter Melling

Absolutely brilliant thinking. love to understand more.

Cliff Katcheech

I am, was all of the above, 8 yrs ago i began my journey to be a more compassionate and understanding man, my biggest issue in life was fear which manifested its self into rage and anger, while all that time i always knew it wasnt me? thank you for allowing me to begin to understand why i am like this and im eager to learn more ....peace

WTM Admin

    Thank you very much for your appreciative comment, Cliff. Yes, the more you digest this understanding, the more you will see how it brings profound peace to your and everyone’s situation. What is so important about Jeremy Griffith’s ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition is that it finally and compassionately explains the real reason for why humans’ selfish, competitive, angry and destructive behaviour became an unavoidable, indeed necessary, part of human life. And with our goodness biologically established, we no longer need to be preoccupied with proving our worth against the implication we were bad when we intuitively knew we weren’t. Solving the human condition solves all the confusion, frustration, fear, insecurity and suffering in human life at its source so we can actually stop the angry destruction of ourselves, others, and the planet and save the world. You may be interested in FAQ 1.34, in which the highly respected psychiatrist Professor Harry Prosen, a former President of the Canadian Psychiatric Association, wrote: “the beauty of Griffith’s treatise is that the healing starts at the macro level of the universal human condition; the healing of the shame and blame that the whole human race has suffered from…It brings the greater context and love to all human psychosis and suffering, and then, from under the umbrella of that safe position, everyone can gradually work inwards to their particular experience of all the imperfections in human life that have now, finally, been made sense of.”     We encourage you to continue your digestion of this understanding by visiting our homepage — HumanCondition.com — as it provides an initial guide to learning more, including registering for our interactive, live events with Jeremy Griffith and others, which are a great way to participate, have questions answered, and interact with others to enhance your comprehension of this breakthrough explanation of the human condition.

Astonishing!!

susan adams

I’m still in the midst of watching the interview and being someone who always believed humans are doomed to destroy this planet would love nothing more than some hope. My question is what about cultures like the Danis that seemed to center around warring ? Albeit the documentary was Dead Birds that I saw moons ago. How does that come about or am I missing something, which is possible because I haven’t finished the interview. Thank you

WTM Admin

Good question Susan. The central tenet of Jeremy Griffith’s explanation of the human condition is that humans have a cooperative, loving instinctive heritage, not a brutish, savage and aggressive one, and that the source of our aggression is a psychosis that has been compounding ever since the instinct and intellect clashed some 2 million years ago. It follows then that the further back in history we go, the less psychologically upset a race of people will be, and so the more cooperative, loving and in touch with the natural world they will be – and we can see evidence of this in existing ‘primitive’ races of people, such as in many indigenous cultures. However, it needs to be born in mind that peoples such as the Danis of Irian Jaya are only relatively innocent compared with other races; they are still members of the extremely upset stage of humanity, H. sapiens sapiens, so they are still psychologically upset angry egocentric and alienated. And moreover, they have not yet learnt to ‘civilise’ their upset, and so while they are open hearted and sharing and nurturing of their offspring because they are relatively innocent, because they have not leant to civilize their upset, they ‘wear their upset on their sleeve’ as it were, which is why warring is such a big part of their culture. Again, not because it is in their genes, but because they have not learnt to civilize their psychologically upset state.

Vicki Neale

After the Bible this is worth our time...

WTM Admin

All we would add is that while Jeremy Griffith’s work doesn’t contradict a belief in God or Christianity, it does bring biological understanding to all those pre-scientific concepts. Our FAQs about religion include FAQ 6.2 ‘What is God’ and FAQ 6.3 ‘Does this undermine religion/God’.

    Thank you Brenda, for your interest and enthusiasm for Jeremy’s breakthrough treatise on the human condition. And thank you also for your offer of translating THE Interview, however as you’ll see on our Translations page it is already available in Spanish, as is Jeremy’s book Death by Dogma, the first 4 chapters of FREEDOM and Freedom Essay 1. The WTM Colombian Centre also presents its website in Spanish, including centre founder Carlos Cruz Blanco’s welcome video, so there is a significant amount of material available!     We also wanted to mention that our homepage — HumanCondition.com — is the perfect place to pursue your interest, stating ‘WHAT NEXT after watching THE Interview?’ and leading you through our recommended steps, including joining our popular Facebook Group and registering for free, live, interactive events with Jeremy and others.

Humanity needs more truth and understanding. If we want to be better as people. World wide.

Catherine Russell

Brilliant

Lidiya

It is amazing and absolutely worth seeing!

Carol Maney

Great theory until you started blaming left wing politics); any study of the history of power wielding hinges on right wing authoritarianism- autocracy, totalitarianism and military dictatorship.

WTM Admin

Hi Carol, Jeremy Griffith’s biological ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition allows us to understand the real merits and liabilities of both the left and right wing. His work certainly doesn’t excuse the right-wing for its corrupting behaviour, nor unfairly focus on the failing of the left, which is that its insistence on ideal behaviour had the effect of oppressing the search for knowledge, but rather brings a profound understanding to both sides which ultimately will bring an end to the whole ugly business of politics. This is fully explained in our FAQs about politics, see www.humancondition.com/frequently-asked-questions/#about-politics/

Melanie

Sounds really interesting and would love to learn more about him and his book on this subject.

WTM Admin

Hi Melanie, Jeremy Griffith’s definitive book FREEDOM (along with his other key books, including THE Interview) is freely available to download or read online here on our homepage. You can also download free Kindle versions from Amazon. (Otherwise hard copies can be purchased from Amazon or other good bookstores.) We also urge you to join our popular Facebook Group and registering for free, live, interactive events with Jeremy and others.

Christopher Carothers

I am completely blown away. I have had plenty of my own internal battles with my own selfish self destructions, and struggles with whether or why I’m broken. This definitely moves the ball down the court in my life struggles. Thank you so much for the insight. I have been considering therapy, if nothing else this will be a great head start on renewing faith in my own loving ability and understanding conquering my self destructive side and/or personalities.

WTM Admin

Hi Christopher, thank you very much for your comment. Yes, the human condition has caused so much pain and trauma, the “internal battles” you speak of, it is almost unimaginable, so finally being able to understand the conflict between our instinct and intellect is immensely relieving. What is so significant about Jeremy Griffith’s explanation of the human condition is that 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 understand humans’ 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. We can at last understand the source of our upset and bring great compassion and kindness to ourselves and others and, most importantly, we don’t have to overly confront the upset within us — see FAQ 1.19 ‘A caution about the danger of over-exposure / Advice for people with mental health issues’. This FAQ explains that everyone and especially those with a history of psychological instability need to manage their exposure to this very confronting information. It also importantly urges people who struggle with mental health issues to seek the support and assistance of professional counsellors and stresses that any information we do provide should not be used as, or as a substitute for, professional counselling.

Wonderful

Rich Eby

Thank You

Megan Kuehne

I have been searching and researching, as well as going to theocratic ministry school and studying comparative religions, all my life so 50 years. This is definitely the answer to all the questions of life and the reason we fell from grace. Armed with this knowledge it will free people. I’m thankful to you all for the answers. I just can’t get enough. Love it

Oceng David Alex

The information is amazing and digs up the psychological trap that humans got stuck in. The human ego is appalling and needs transformation now and not tomorrow. Look at how the reckless state of individualism now devouring the universe....

WTM Admin

Thank you for your feedback, Oceng. This knowledge presents a huge paradigm shift in our thinking but what is so extraordinary about Jeremy Griffith’s treatise is that it logically and accountably defends human selfishness and egocentricity. It is that defence of our ‘dark side’, through finding the good reason that we had to defy our instincts, that means all our defensive behaviours (our anger, egocentricity and alienation) are now redundant. We no longer need them because we have the real defense for why we had to defy our instincts. And because this is a rational, accountable, scientific explanation, everyone will eventually take it up. So while it may take time for everyone to access this breakthrough (because the human condition has historically been such a fearful, off-limits topic), once this catches on through people recognising the importance of it and supporting it, the infectious enthusiasm and selfless love it liberates will spread like wildfire. You may be interested in FAQ 1.40 which addresses the questions ‘How can you hope to transform the world? — In particular, how are you going to change the behaviour of the rich and powerful? / How are you going to reach the bastions of power? / Won’t the greedy and power-hungry simply ignore this?’.

Linda Schroeder

Amazing.

Muge Senturk

I was looking for a solution concerning what we are all going through and found it! Now we need to disseminate the thought!

Valerie Doyle

Interesting

Nancy

Seems more like the “Male” human condition.

WTM Admin

Jeremy Griffith’s treatise is applicable to all humans, regardless of gender. It explains the universal psychosis all humans suffer from as a result of the clash between our instinct and intellect, which significantly can be healed through understanding. What is astonishing is that despite our psychologically upset condition this biological treatise establishes all humans are equally good, worthwhile, meaningful and wonderful. We recommend watching molecular biologist Dr Anna Fitzgerald’s video commendation about how this explanation is the real liberation of women and also FAQ 8.1 ‘How does this reconcile the sexes’.

NORMA Luevano

Infinite Gratitude for sharing 🙂 very important to have this knowledge..you are amazing

Eleanor Mahlatsi

Wow, I’m so happy that I’ve listened, the interview is fab, amazingly awesome, hats off, I’m free and blessed..

Sylvia R Blakey

Science may have given us some of the answers. I look forward to learning more. Thank you for telling people we can stop all forms of hate, specially of ourselves. That message never gets old.

Elizabeth

Understanding the Human Condition is the Way of saving the People of the world from self annihilation Time is short now

Tshifhiwa

The world would be a different place had people known and understood the human condition the way it is explained here. I know who I am today and this is liberating.

Carolyn Finik

Very good

Christine Butler

Very interesting would like to learn more

Jeffrey Marshall

I want to learn about the world with us in it

Ahmed Hosh

Commendable

Chitra Talwar

It’s an eye opener...very interesting and clears many myths and have presented a line of thinking..thank you so much showing a ray of hope...

Dong San Juan

Beautiful & meaningful phrase: “We have to lose ourselves before we could find ourselves”.

Cj

Excellent!

Elizabeth o’Keefe

I have waited for this human enlightenment for a long time. While we still have time!

Adriana Huls

Wonderful.

Surendran

This discovery called #TheHumanCondition by JG isn’t new. It’s only been rediscovered by some modern scientific “scientists” sections of humanity. It has been long been discovered by ancient wisdom gurus, siddhas of India & put into the VEDAS. It’s only because biologist like JG & western thinkers have consciously learnt this existential wisdom that they find this as new. At any rate, it’s good those who find the same answers in the Vedas liberating via JG research. Human beings are always losing the truth at some point, then rediscovering Humanity again in another era

WTM Admin

While religions contain all manner of truths about human life, it 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 biological breakthrough that Jeremy Griffith presents in THE Interview and his book FREEDOM.That is the great breakthrough his work represents.

Ibrahim Yakubu

I was stuck at a point in my life as I couldn’t established a clear position/direction of where i am and where i am going. But when I listened to this interview I got my confidence back.

WTM Admin

Yes, the explanatory power of finally being able to understand the human condition is astonishing as at last we can know where we have been, where we are and where we are going! What is so significant about Jeremy Griffith’s explanation 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 truly love and look after ourselves and others with great awareness and compassion. This understanding is so profound it does bring about the wonderful world we have all dreamed of could be—see the Transformation section of our website!

Allan Miller

Revealing. Eye opening to say the least , transformational . As it was in the beginning , so shall it be in the end now applies to the human condition. We shall return to a co-operative and loving state .

Dana Mockeviciute

I truely think that justice is much more important than liberty, yet avant midi very curious of your convictions. D.M.

WTM Admin

Thank you for your thoughts Dana. There is a lot to digest here, and so we hope you persevere. We agree you can’t have liberty or freedom until we bring real justice to the human situation, and so in that sense, justice is more important than liberty. But the real issue for true, fundamental justice to be brought about is that we needed to answer the essential question of WHY do humans inflict such injustice onto their fellow humans. We needed to properly understand our out-of-control egocentric, selfish, competitive and aggressive human condition in order to bring ‘justice’ to it, and it is precisely this redeeming understanding of the human condition that Jeremy Griffith delivers in this interview. We hope you will explore our FAQ 1.6 which explains how understanding the instinct v intellect cause of our psychological human condition brings an end to all the destruction and injustice in our world.

Cathy Holton

Excellent

Aminu Yahaya Isa

It really is enlightenment in its pure form

John Maughan

Enlightening, I have never fully understood why we act as we do as a species and felt doomed by our selfish future, the climate crisis is evidence of that.Now with a greater understanding we can move forwards to a better future.

WTM Admin

Thank you for your comment John, the world certainly is in a terrifying endgame situation and this breakthrough has arrived at the 11th hour. Yes at last we have the greater understanding and solution to our selfish and destructive human condition. We can know we actually do have loving moral instincts but, as a result of our conscious mind having to search for knowledge, we humans unavoidably and necessarily become angry, egocentric and alienated, and as a result we are more than capable of destroying each other and our environment. The relieving news is we can turn this doomed situation around and quickly! So the next step, now you have watched THE Interview, is to explore our homepage which guides you through the ways to further investigate this new science and join the WTM Community and participate in the only movement that can heal the human race and save the world!
