The Deep State Consciousness Podcast

Jon Di Luca Interviewed me about my time studying the Japanese martial art of aikido. To quote Jon:

‘To summarize what we talked about, I’d say it was mainly centered on if/how martial arts training could be used as a testing ground for spiritual concepts. Even after this conversation, the question lingers for me - how can martial arts practice, intrinsically linked to violence and conflict, be a path towards spiritual awakening? And what even is spiritual awakening?’

‘Under normal circumstances slashing car tires would be a crime. But suppose they knew the car was carrying a bomb which would devastate Manchester city centre? In that case, slashing the tires would not be a crime, it would be a responsible and public-spirited act.'

It may be surprising to note, that the biggest terrorist attack of the Mandate era was actually perpetrated by the Jewish Agency against Jewish refugees.

Anna Warhurst interviews me regarding my work on body dysmorphia. She asks what drew me to this area, why I thought certain spiritual philosophies might be a way to address it and what the overlaps are with my wider work. We also discuss a study I ran a few years ago, and what insights emerged from that.

‘If our dreams for Zionism are to end in the smoke of assassins’ pistols and our labours for its future to produce only a new set of gangsters worthy of Nazi Germany, many like myself will have to reconsider the position we have maintained so consistently in the past.’ - Winston Churchill

‘By the influence of the increasing percentage of carbonic acid in the atmosphere, we may hope to enjoy ages with more equable and better climates, especially as regards the colder regions of the earth, ages when the earth will bring forth much more abundant crops than at present, for the benefit of rapidly propagating mankind.’

Tim Freke joins me to discuss the metaphysical philosophy he's been developing over the past several years. Tim is a 'spiritual teacher', in that he has spent several decades guiding people on introspective journeys into an examination of their own consciousness. He did this within an 'idealist' framework, which places consciousness as the foundational property of existence. Over recent years he has come to question, and ultimately reject this position, contending that a better account of life, spiritual experiences, and everything, exists.

In this conversation we also get into the underpinning approach we take to asking these kind of questions.

Up until the 1930s,  Zionists in Palestine engaged in a policy of Havlagah, Hebrew for Restraint. This essentially meant to abstain from retaliatory violence and collective punishment. Only the guilty could be held responsible for their crimes.

‘Dartmouth-Hitchcock’s epidemic that wasn't raises overlapping questions. If this could happen in one hospital, why not two? If two, why not four? If four, could the hospitals in an entire county or state be put on high alert, with staff isolated and vaccines distributed. And if the procedures put in place to deal with the epidemic actually started to cause harm, thereby confirming the epidemic is real - what’s to stop the mass panic spreading over the entire globe?’
