Thinking With Somebody Else's Head

“Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. Bribery and corruption are common and there are signs the world is speedily coming to an end.” The latest doomsday prognostication from the Mayans? Not exactly. A statement allegedly lifted from an Assyrian tablet dated 2800 B.C. It’s clear mankind has been on the wrong path for some time, but what specifically are the steps we’ve taken off the straight and narrow? At least some of the blame can be laid at the feet of Freud and Marx and other schools of psychology. Professor Karl Jaspers, arguably humanity’s greatest psychological scientist, said that some psychologies and sociologies have performed perversions in society and exerted devastating power. Let’s look at how these ideas have helped us corrupt our planet and ourselves. Eliminating Faith and Truth: the Failure of Psychological Science, today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

Corruption. Some government official with his hand out or a doctor accepting an all expenses paid fishing trip in exchange for promoting new pharmaceuticals, or a baseball player betting on his own team. It’s part of doing business in some countries, and whispers of it are always present wherever big events, like the Olympics and the World Cup, are held. But corruption is not reserved only for corporate boardrooms or secret meetings of the world’s power brokers – although it’s certainly in abundance there. It’s also inside all of us who corrupt ourselves without knowing how, or why. We’ll look at corruption in all its forms today, on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.Join the conversation at joneshealing@gmail.comClick here to listen to this episode.

It was Jefferson who first realized the necessity of a free press in America. “Media is the best instrument for enlightening the mind of man, and improving him as a rational, moral and social being,” he said eloquently. Prominent journalist, Bill Moyers, has suggested that there’s nothing more important for a democracy than ensuring an independent and free media. The loss of this, then, is of great concern to any who seek to live in freedom. Media has become at best a kind of sideshow and at worst, completely irrelevant, because it doesn’t tell us what’s going on. We’ll look at that and consider the implications of this for the liberation of the people, today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.Join the conversation at Facebook.

We have become inured to the huge levels of injustice and corruption perpetrated by our political/economic system today, and this needs to change. The current disturbing levels of apathy appear to be the reason for the success of Stéphane Hessel's Cry Out! - a French publishing phenomenon. This 13-page pamphlet encourages youth to recapture the French spirit of resistance by rejecting the "insolent, selfish" power of money and markets and by defending the social "values of modern democracy." Norberto Keppe's, Liberation of the People, written the the mid 1980s, offered a call to all idealists, all who believe in goodness, truth and beauty, to unite so a new society could be built, the Kingdom of Man on Earth. Keppe foreshadowed Hessel's admonitions, and he goes deeper, too, explaining how we got so off track and offering concrete solutions to fix things. We explore how that's more than idealism and actually approaches true romance, today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head.

The feeding frenzy arising from the charges against Dominique Strauss-Kahn stimulate analysis. How we in the public rise up in collective indignation at suggestions of sexual impropriety while hardly looking up from our breakfast cereal at revelations of the lies that pushed us to war! Not to diminish the charges in any way, but there's more going on here than first glance would tell us. Deeper explanations are needed ... and fast. Especially when we consider Strauss-Kahn's prominent role in criticizing the global financial system while moving to reduce the importance of the dollar in IMF negotiations. How to look at this terrible situation with consciousness, humility and even wisdom? We'll conduct an Analytical Trilogy psycho-socio analysis of the DSK affair, and consider what real malfeasance goes on around us all the time unnoticed and even supported.

What is the true nature of man? Is it good, beautiful and true? Or a mix of those elements with corruption and evil? That question strikes deep to the issue philosophers have struggled to answer for centuries. Today, we are very fortunate to have some conclusions on the subject, originating from Norberto Keppe's school of Analytical Trilogy. And the conclusions reached at Keppe's scientific society allow us to look with new eyes on transcendence, psychic phenomena, death and human meaning. All of which we'll do on our program today.

Bin Laden's death. A major victory by the good guys over the bad guys? Or an inverted celebration based on a false sense of unity? We make a strong argument for the latter this week on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head. You see, when the celebration fades away, the real problems will appear again. The economy, the growing gap between the poor and the extremely rich, the scandalous profits made by pharmaceutical companies that poison us with unnecessary medicines, the millions in drug cartel money laundered by the U.S. banking system ... those are the real dangers facing America, not some obscure Al Qaeda terrorist network hiding in the mountains of Afghanistan. And these real problems we're not addressing. There are enormous dangers of using outside scapegoats to mask our deep societal problems, and we'll explore all that on this week's program with Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco.

Billions watching on TV. Carriages, choirs, cheering spectators. Followed by late night assassinations, mysterious burials at sea, celebrations like Super Bowl Victory parties. We’ll bring some sense to the madness this week on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head. Bin Laden, the Royal Wedding, can there be any sanity to be found here? For sure, and along the way a healthy dose of reality. Join the conversation at joneshealing@gmail.com Click here to listen to this episode.

You might not know firsthand the social conscience displayed by the artists of the ‘60s, and the social and civil rights activists from the ‘50s. But it was a powerful thing. There was a real spirit of change moving back then, and the answer did seem to be blowing in the wind. The spirit wavered there bravely for a time, but then got lost in the drugs and greed and the “me” generation. And always, the spectre of the pathology of power was there, attacking the protesters on campus sit ins and submitting a generation of idealistic youth to the horror of Vietnam and the mindless menace of violence and nuclear obliteration. What happened to our activism, and can it be recuperated? Through the science of Analytical Trilogy elaborated by Norberto Keppe, let’s try to rekindle a social conscience today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

It is extremely important to perceive that the established powers have been organized to control the will of the people, paralyzing their capacity to act. In fact, there is ample evidence that the socio-economic power in charge today holds back the development of humankind. But most critics (and there are many, including many excellent ones) can’t connect the dots to give us a complete analysis of it because they’re lacking the understanding of the science of psycho-socio pathology. Which is exactly what we bring every week on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head. In spite of being attacked relentlessly by the powerful because the powerful know that if his work gets into the world, they lose their hold on power, Norberto Keppe has been resolute in his condemnation of the pathology of power. We’ll go deeply behind the curtains of power to expose all that on today’s show. Join the conversation at joneshealing@gmail.com Click here to listen to this episode.

Here’s a wild thought: it’s our socio-economic structure that is causing most of our distress and misery today. We’ll even go a little further: it leading us into mental and physical illness. After all, human beings cannot live in balance if society is out of balance. The dynamics between the individual’s internal problems and the resultant social difficulties has rarely been studied … and never with the clarity and vision we’ll introduce today. Stress as a consequence of social sickness, led by the most unbalanced individuals in our society today – our leaders – and what we need to do to improve it. Depression and Society. Provocative stuff today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head. Join the conversation at joneshealing@gmail.com Click here to listen to this episode.

We’re spending thousands of dollars per second. We’re disrupting the lives of millions of people. We’re damaging our soldiers and our own citizens. And we’re not reducing terrorism one smidgen. And that’s not the worst news. In the 21st Century, we’re still trying to resolve disagreements in medieval ways. And this is having a terrible impact on our First World societies. Join Richard Lloyd Jones and Gilbert Gambucci for an exploration of the terrible downside to war this week on our program. We’ll also hear in our first segment about the mistakes made in the Secret and what it truly means to be connected to an abundant source. All that today, on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

Drug dealers, prostitutes, terrorists, assassins. These are all aspects of society we have to deal with in our modern world. But not only in the external population. No, there are many of those personalities in power today. And they use the police and military to squash dissent in all of the myriad and horrible ways we’ve seen in the 20th century. Let’s bring the precise lens of psycho-socio pathology brought by Norberto Keppe’s science of Analytical Trilogy to the subject today. We’ll analyze Society on the Couch through Keppe’s astounding book, The Psychoanalysis of Society, and also consider the inequality in economics and how it creates such social injustice. All that and more on this week’s installment of Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head. Join the conversation at joneshealing@gmail.com Click here to listen to this episode.

The Tsunami and nuclear crisis in Japan, the rising up in the Arab world, Haiti, the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, another war … this is all showing much more than human tragedy and environmental devastation. What it’s showing us is that our way of behaving on the planet, even our lauded scientific philosophy itself, has led us not to the promised land of abundance and happiness, but to the brink of disaster. We are seeing the inevitable results of an inverted worldview. This is much discussed and understood in the science of Analytical Trilogy – but discussed far less than it should be in the world at large. Let’s explore beyond pseudo solutions on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head today. Join the conversation at joneshealing@gmail.com Click here to listen to this episode.

Any critique of modern science hits up against a formidable wall of skepticism and blind loyalty to the dogma that characterizes the scientific world view today. That won’t stop us from attempting the task, however. Because something changed in science. Although scientists today are generally against any idea of a transcendental reality, it wasn’t always like that. For centuries, the greatest geniuses considered the ultimate creative force of God fundamental to understanding of anything. And then, it all changed. Let’s explore that change, and show how modern scientific dogma has led us to a blind alley that we won’t be able to escape from without reuniting science with theology and philosophy – which is exactly what Norberto Keppe’s Analytical Trilogy does. Within this critique will also be some fundamental knowledge about the human psyche and its contribution to our problems, and the hopeful possibilities emerging from the Keppe Motor.
