Before including the transcript of Neil’s presentation, this box contains a summary by Jeremy of the transforming situation humans are in.
Now that the great goal of the whole human journey of conscious thought and enquiry has been achieved and we have found understanding of our conflicted and distressed human condition (see THE Interview), all the old retaliatory, defensive and insecure upset behaviours of anger, egocentricity and alienation that we had to employ to cope while we couldn’t defend ourselves with understanding are no longer needed. They are obsoleted, brought to an end. In fact, with this knowledge of the human condition now found, it would be an act of total irresponsibility, indeed madness, to continue down that old, insecure, defensive and destructive competitive, selfish and aggressive road. The truth is, there is nothing in the way now of every human taking up a magnificent, unburdened, human-condition-free, cooperative, selfless and loving transformed life!
Most significantly, this new Transformed Lifeforce State (TLS) and its way of living is fundamentally different to all the previous ways in which we abandoned our upset life and lived instead in accordance with more cooperative and selfless principles. As is described in F. Essay 35, there has been a progression of increasingly dishonest, deluded and dangerous ways of adopting a more cooperative and selfless way of living—from religion to socialism/communism to New Ageism to feminism to environmentalism to politically correct post-modernism to ‘Critical Theory’ and its associated ‘Critical Race Theory’ and ‘Critical Gender Theory’. And as has been explained in great depth throughout F. Essay 35 (which is such a significant essay it has been produced as the standalone booklet titled Death by Dogma: The biological reason why the Left is leading us to extinction, and the solution, which is freely available on our homepage as one of the WTM’s six key books), what was increasingly dishonest, deluded and dangerous about all these movements was that they weren’t just promoted as ways of restraining upset, but as actual solutions to the psychologically upset state of our human condition. As the Adam Stork story in THE Interview is finally able to make clear, we humans had to be prepared to suffer becoming upset angry, egocentric and alienated while we searched for knowledge, ultimately for self-knowledge, the redeeming, reconciling and rehabilitating understanding of our ‘good and evil’ conflicted human condition. Therefore, dogmatic insistence on cooperative and selfless behaviour oppressed the freedom we needed to continue the upsetting search for knowledge. And to claim that dogmatic compliance with cooperative and selfless behaviour was the solution to upset behaviour was pseudo idealistic because real idealism depended on continuing the upsetting search for knowledge until we found the rehabilitating understanding of the human condition. Understanding not dogma was the answer; it was our species’ goal and destiny. However, once that relieving understanding of the human condition was found, as it now has been, this situation fundamentally changes. Suddenly it’s no longer pseudo idealistic to insist on cooperative and selfless behaviour, because the upsetting battle to find understanding of ourselves has been won. So while all previous forms of abandoning our upset life were fundamentally irresponsible and pseudo idealistic, abandoning our upset life is now not only legitimate, it is the only way to live. (As mentioned, F. Essay 35, and its book version, Death by Dogma, explain the immense danger of left-wing dogma. F. Essay 36 then explains how the legitimate transformation that understanding of the human condition makes possible is the only way to save Western civilisation, indeed save humanity. The differences between the Transformed Way of Living and all other previous ways of abandoning our upset life are also fully described in chapters 9:5 and 9:6 of FREEDOM.)
YES, THE IMMENSE EXCITEMENT AND RELIEF OF BEING EFFECTIVELY FREE OF THE HUMAN CONDITION—the joy and happiness of being liberated from the burden of our insecurities, self-preoccupations and devious strategising; the awesome meaning and power of finally being genuinely aligned with the truth and actually participating in the magic true world; the wonderful empathy and equality of goodness and fellowship that understanding of the human condition now allows us to feel for our fellow humans; the freedom now to effectively focus on repairing the world; and, above all, the radiant aliveness from the optimism that comes with knowing our species’ march through hell has finally ended and that a human-condition-free new world is coming—CAN NOW TRANSFORM EVERY HUMAN AND THUS THE WORLD.
From being a human-condition oppressed and depressed alienated person, you and all other humans can now be TRANSFORMED into redeemed, liberated-from-the-human-condition, exhilarated, ecstatic, enthralled-with-existence, empowered, world-transforming LIFEFORCES. This exhilarated, ecstatic, enthralled-with-existence aspect is the ‘Life’ in ‘Lifeforce’, while the empowered, world-transforming aspect is the ‘force’ in ‘Lifeforce’, so LIFEFORCE covers both the personal benefit and the benefit to the world in one word. Such is the Transformed Lifeforce State or TLS!
F. Essay 15 explains how everyone’s lives can now be immediately transformed, while ‘The 4 key Transformation presentations’ on the WTM’s Transformation Page provide a step-by-step description of the transformation process.
The transcript of Neil Duns’s transformation
My name is Neil Duns and I am here to give my affirmation as to the power and potential of this explanation of the human condition. [See THE Interview and Video/Freedom Essay 3 for the explanation of the human condition.]
The way I live my life now is really very simple. My resolve comes from the efforts of all the humans who have ever lived; inspiration from the children of the future who will one day be born into a world of understanding; and strength and courage from a boy’s vision—that ‘Soon from one end of the horizon to the other, an army will appear in its millions to do battle with human suffering and its weapon will be understanding.’ (This is a phrase that has always summarised Jeremy Griffith’s vision. He has stated it in every one of his books going back to his first book, Free: The End Of The Human Condition which was published in January 1988, where the quote appears on pages 37 and 40.) [See F. Essay 49 for Jeremy’s biography.]
That’s what I draw strength from now.
That’s what I call upon.
What talents I’ve got are aligned to that.
What frailties I’ve got are taken care of by this information. And what frailties I’ve got, I get enough understanding of to enable me to be as functional and able as I could wish to be for the new world that has begun.
I am no one special or unique. I am a 29 year old male [at the time of filming] who has stumbled upon this and seen it for what it really is and acted upon that. I am from a regional city in rural NSW in Australia. I grew up in a middle class family. Mum was a teacher and Dad ran a small business. I went to a public school and then went to Sydney University [Neil was elected Senior Student of Wesley College] and completed a science degree. I played rugby, had a few girlfriends and travelled the world. I started and was involved with a charity for a developing country, and when I finished studying I went off to work in a developing country in a private enterprise. That’s just a brief background which may or may not be relevant—maybe you’ll relate to me, maybe you won’t.
I am not here to give a profound outlook on the state of the world. Or to debate the issue of whether the glass is half full or half empty—I am not seeking to resolve that philosophical argument. To me the state of the world is serious and the current human state, the human condition no less, is well worth investigating. In fact, it’s the most serious of issues we must now face. There is a deep psychological sickness in us all which needs addressing if we are to overcome the world’s problems. And we can only do that now thanks to where science and the accumulation of knowledge has brought us to, but most importantly due to the soundness of an unresigned mind and its holistic approach to piecing together the full picture that Jeremy Griffith has had the capacity to achieve. [Again, THE Interview and Video/F. Essay 3 covers the explanation of the human condition; while the role of unresigned thinkers in assembling that explanation is explained in F. Essay 39.
I, and I think all of us, come at this variously sceptical and dubious about the claims, or offended at the audacity of what this seeks to resolve and overcome. We, (and I’m talking about my generation here) live with such deep cynicism and for me, prior to embracing this information, an actual resistance and fear that there is an all-encompassing truth [see Video/F. Essay 11 for the explanation of why humans have had to live in what Plato described as a cave of denial of the human condition]. In fact there is even a movement in my generation embracing the belief that there is no deeper truth or reason to life, that existence is meaningless and random, and that we’re selfish due to our genes—that we should just get on with life, not look too deeply into the meaning of life [see F. Essay 55: Endgame for the human race about the Millennial generation]. As long as we have good food, wine and coffee and are surrounded by good friends and family, then that’s it, that is as good as it gets—just enjoy life. [See F. Essay 30 for an explanation of the psychological process of ‘Resignation’ whereby we ‘resign’ to a life of seeking reinforcement and distraction.] That’s where we have got to and in fact that’s where I lived. But this is just living with the blinkers on, it’s living in the dark, not living in the true context of our time. And we just need to wake up and see this time for what it truly is. If we can actually see that the time we are in is the start of a new world where humans live through understanding, not under mysticism, faith, dogma, enforced ideality, or in the nothingness of post-modernist deconstruction [see F. Essays 14, 34, 35 & 36 for an exposé of these ‘pseudo idealistic’ movements], then overnight everything changes. As Pierre Teilhard de Chardin said, ‘The Truth has to only appear once…for it to be impossible for anything ever to prevent it from spreading universally and setting everything ablaze’ (Let Me Explain, 1966; trs René Hague & others, 1970, p.159 of 189).
This is the most serious and important of subjects which we are dealing with but I know that there is the most exciting of outcomes as a result of penetrating the impenetrable. That’s what I want to talk about.
I am here to talk today about the relief, excitement, pure joy and freedom that is on offer for everyone now, regardless of who we are, where we’re from and what we’ve done. For me, for men, for women, for children, for all humans now. We’re all equal in this. For the older generations, for the younger generations, for the future of the whole human race. THIS IS BIG!! But this is the time we have arrived at—and isn’t it just incredible!!
It’s the start of the new world.
I want to talk about that relief, excitement and freedom because that’s what I know and have experienced and it makes sense for me to talk about this and share this as my affirmation. Because my affirmation should be about how this information, this biological understanding of the human condition, has changed my life, and it’s through the initial investigation, the subsequent support and, more recently, the embracing of this information that I have been able to experience what I will describe.
The relief we can now experience as we let this information dignify and ameliorate what we know and refer to as our upset or our afflicted state, is like feeling the sun’s warm rays for the first time. Imagine spending, in fact we have spent, a lifetime living in the dark and now we are feeling the warmth shine upon us. And not only are we feeling the warmth, which is the love and ameliorating understanding which this information delivers, but we are now seeing clearly for the first time that this information has shed light upon a whole landscape, the whole world. Just like [WTM Member] Genevieve Salter’s Sun picture below [see Transformation Affirmation 4 for Genevieve’s affirmation].
I love that because it also shows just how big this is compared to us individually. So we now experience relief from being loveable, which is the sun’s warmth; relief from seeing clearly for the first time a world of understanding; and relief in just how much we are a part of something so much bigger than us and our small lives—the scale of this compared to us. Getting out of our selfish preoccupied lives is an ENORMOUS relief. This is a drenching of meaning, compassion and enlightening understanding on our world, our place in it, each other and ourselves.
For me personally that relief was about letting go of the need to feel good about myself. You see this information explains that we are fundamentally good—in fact that we are an amazing species!! Letting the need to feel good be fulfilled through letting my pain and upset state be taken care of as dealt with by this information is an enormous relief in that this insatiable appetite, this futile quest for an unreachable goal, is now over.
That need to feel good about myself was insatiable and was simply a result of an underlying insecurity of self I lived with since Resignation and that has defined how I lived my life ever since. We all share this insecurity to various degrees. This became a full time preoccupation for me as an adult as it does for everyone, and in my early to mid 20s I set off into life seeking to overcome that feeling and expressed that urge in its extreme. I’d sleep with as many women as I could, I set myself up in the most difficult and challenging work environment in which to conquer and state my claim, I went to the extreme of satisfying the urge my ego was crying out for and have experienced the emptiness and the loneliness of that state. I now live relieved of that feeling, that burden to overcome, and that relieved feeling is standing with my arms in the air, embracing the sun which has risen on the horizon and feeling that warmth, being able to see for the first time and being humbled by my size compared to this.
The excitement that opens up when we allow our preoccupied, upset state to be taken care of by this information, to be now living relieved of that upset state, well the excitement that opens up is just incomparable. It is just like Jeremy’s depiction in his Humanity’s Situation drawing of the state humans experience when they take the Sunshine Highway (which is the embracing and supporting of this information) over the depression of the unconfrontable truths that this information inevitably brings up, and run towards freedom with open arms. The excitement shown in this drawing is real.
It’s the highest of highs no drug could deliver and is like electricity running through your veins when you see and feel this. And it lasts and it stays with us unlike the feeling from any drug or sex or win or indulgence or embellishment. This is the most exciting time humans have ever experienced. THIS IS THE MOST EXCITING TIME HUMANS HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED!!
And Freedom. Freedom’s like a destination we’ve been travelling towards for an eternity, for so long we’ve forgotten where we’re going, what we’re doing. We’ve been striving for something just out of grasp. Well, we have reached true freedom now. Think about how incredible that is!! How ethereal and out of reach it’s been, but nonetheless we’ve held hope we’d one day reach it. This information now sets us free—‘The Truth will set you free’ like they say. Freedom that is like nothing before, which no humans have until now experienced, freedom from our afflictions, insecurities and preoccupations, which liberates us and allows us to truly live now and experience life in a totally new framework. Freedom to participate in a new world. Jeremy’s first book in 1988 was called Free: The End of the Human Condition and that’s what this delivers and this is the time we are now in. I should clarify that while this is the end of the human condition, our generation will not become free of the human condition, but we are in a Transformed Lifeforce State—we are energised and share a common cause as a conduit generation to get these understandings to a fresh generation who’ll one day be born free of the human condition That’s the common goal we all now share. [F. Essays 15 & 33 explain more about the role of generations who grew up under the duress of the human condition].
As Jeremy explained in Section 1:13 of Freedom Expanded: Book 2, ‘This Exhilarated, Ecstatic, Enthralled-with-Existence aspect is the “Life” in “Lifeforce”; and the Empowered, World-Transforming aspect is the “force” in “Lifeforce”, so Lifeforce covers the personal benefit and the benefit to the world in one word.’ This is a perfect description of what we can now live with and is the relief, excitement and freedom that I am talking about.
As I said earlier, we all approach this variously sceptical and dubious, or even offended at the claims as to the power of this information. But I do ask you to stay open to the possibility that there is a world that you don’t yet know about, a life that is bliss that you haven’t yet experienced, and a future that awaits that is incredibly exciting and that you haven’t seen coming.
Each one of us is standing at the door to something so easily obtainable, incredibly exciting and offering unlimited potential. This fixes all the world’s problems because it deals with the source of the problems, which is US.
The responsibility is there but don’t act on responsibility, be drawn by what’s on offer. It’s unbeatable and I urge everyone to open their eyes to this and see the time we are now in for what it is.
Thank you.

Watch Jeremy Griffith present the breakthrough redeeming explanation of the human condition in THE Interview; for a fuller explanation read chapter 3 of FREEDOM; and for a summary presentation of the key ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation watch Video/F. Essay 3. You can also read much more on the transformation made possible by the explanation of the human condition in Part 3 of Transform Your Life And Save The World, or chapter 9 of FREEDOM.
We also recommend The Shock Of Change that understanding the human condition brings that addresses how to manage the great shock that inevitably occurs in this fabulous transformation from having to depend on our now obsoleted, artificial, angry, egocentric and alienating forms of reinforcement, to living free of them.
