#128 Breaking the Curse of Evil by HumanSpirit Radio Network published on 2019-08-22T23:12:45Z From the HSRN archives - Sarah's guest is Paul Levy, author of Dispelling Wetiko/Breaking the Curse of Evil. (excerpted from back cover) There is a contagious psycho-spiritual disease of the soul, a parasite of the mind, that is currently being acted out en masse on the world stage via a collective psychosis of titanic proportions. This mind-virus─which Native Americans have called "wetiko"─covertly operates through the unconscious blind spots in the human psyche, rendering people oblivious to their own madness and compelling them to act against their own best interests. This 'bug' in the system deceives us by working with the intrinsic projective tendencies of our mind so as to appear external to and other than ourselves, utilizing the seemingly outside world as the canvas for its full-bodied revelation of itself. Wetiko...gives shape to and configures events in the world... so [that], as in a dream, events in the outer world are symbolically reflecting a condition deep within the psyche of humanity. Paul Levy shows us that hidden within the venom of wetiko is a revelation as well as its own antidote, which once recognized can help us wake up and bring sanity back to our society. How wetiko manifests─will it destroy our species, or will it catalyze a deeper process of global awakening?─depends upon recognizing what it is revealing to us about ourselves. "This book brilliantly exposes how the very roots of the madness that is threatening life on earth are ultimately to be found within our own psyche. Paul is taking seriously the profound implications of what it means that all of us are living in a mass, shared dream. His startlingly clear premise challenges me to reflect upon both the world and myself in radically mind-altering ways. Paul's work...stimulates me to greater heights of lucidity, disturbs me enough to awaken me out of my complacency, and encourages me to fly on the wings of the creative imagination. The world would be a better place if everyone read this book." -Sting Other works by Paul Levy - The Madness of George W. Bush: A Reflection of Our Collective Psychosis, and most recently Quantum Revelation: A Radical Synthesis of Science and Spirituality. www.AwakenintheDream.com Genre Learning
