http://somebodyelseshead.blogspot.com/This podcast is about new thinking. But it's also about the thinking we already have. Since few of us ever investigate what we think, we're mostly just thinking what we've learned to think. Which means we're really thinking with somebody else's head.

And indeed, our food philosophy used to be closer to common sense in the past. My parents, already a generation closer to nature than mine, taught me that the best thing you could put in your body was something you washed the dirt off before putting it in your mouth. But, oh my, how things have changed! Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Controlling our Food. It should be a no-brainer. The food we eat should be the closest thing to nature we can get. The whole alimentation industry should be based on that premise. But it's a long way from it. Now we've god hormones to make the birds and cows grow faster and with more meat. We've got pesticides and chemical fertilizers to the point where it's advisable to peel the apples before eating to avoid the greatest concentrations of these toxic substances. We've got additives for this, enriched minerals for that, our food is fortified and treated. We're surrounded by toxins and belly full of food whose nutritional value is highly suspect. There are many factors at play. We've built enormous industries of chemicals that make substantial profits for huge corporations. The fact that many of them are based on tycoons wanting to find uses for their industrial waste is not well understood by us. In fact, the pharmaceutical industry was established on the waste products from the oil and coal industries, which is why Rockefeller and Carnegie were so keenly interested in Pasteur's Germ Theory. They figured if they could get that theory accepted in the top medical schools in the land they'd have another almost endless source of profit. Heck, if every disease has a specific germ responsible for it, then you need a specific medicine for each germ - plus all the R&D industry to go along with it. So they commissioned Abraham Flexner to do an exhaustive analysis of the medical education system in Canada and the U.S., and his Flexner Report changed totally how medicine was taught and perceived. Of course, the Carnegie and Rockefeller Foundations threw money at any medical research facility that focused on finding the germs responsible for a multitude of diseases old and new. And if these medical centers could dedicate themselves to creating a drug, a pharmaceutical medicine that could be created with coal and oil waste, well, here's more money for you! And quickly, medical education began to change. That was Mr. Pasteur who influenced that. But he caused a lot of damage in the food business, too. His introduction of paranoia into medicine led to the creation of artificial food - including plastic and chemical additives and processes that would ensure us we never got infected with any of those evil little bacteria. Monsanto was created in 1901 with exactly that intention, and they haven't stopped infecting our lives with beastly products and practices since. All of this is explained in Norberto Keppe's work of Analytical Trilogy, which is the science of showing us the source of our problems within, not without. And it is very valuable work to explore. rich@richjonesvoice.com if you'd like more information about any of Keppe's work. This Pasteurian craziness is at the basis of the Codex Alimentarius, too - a U.N. led attempt to categorize and control all foodstuffs. This gives a lot of preference to treated and genetically modified food over natural food, and this is very dangerous.

"That's just the way it is," we say, and we step out confidently upon that premise. But what extensive research and clinical study from Brazil is showing us is that we would do well to investigate a little deeper. Our thinking, it turns out, is not always our own. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Fathers of the Lie Part II. Last time on our program, Cesar Soós and I began our discussion about the leading thinkers who have had such an impact on our human civilization. And how their mistakes have led us collectively to the mess our modern society finds itself in today. We talked about Aristotle's monumental error of placing the senses as the determiner of knowledge. "Nothing comes to the mind which doesn't pass first through the senses," he asserted, thereby enshrining sensory, positivistic science as the lord of the domain. Aristotle's ideas were resisted for a few centuries, particularly by Augustine, who leaned more towards Plato's universality, and Anselm. But Aquinas, the great medieval theologian, brought Aristotle back to the forefront, and the battle was on. Francis Bacon, Descartes, Comte followed, and science changed from considering more metaphysical explanations for the origin of things to seeing all phenomena only in terms of their physical characteristics. Left in the wake as well were the moral or theological tenets of science, which thus became strictly materialistic. The Big Bang, the search for the particles that cause gravity or even intelligence and creativity, the destruction of material nature to get energy - all are consequences of this academic difference of opinion. Right away, we see that philosophy and theology have dramatically influenced science, which does not come solely from experimentation at all, as scientists would have us believe. Dr. Norberto Keppe's Analytical Trilogy is a more advanced science because it accepts the important discoveries and truths from philosophy and theology in its scientific postulates. Dr. Keppe was telling a group of us recently that Analytical Trilogy is a science that accepts and integrates what's true from all fields. And this is possible because of two things: Keppe's establishing of a true metaphysics on which to base an analysis of anything, and Keppe's clarification of what's going on in the human psyche, which causes us to misinterpret reality and put many inverted ideas into our theories. This is no small thing, and difficult to explain in entirety, so I encourage you to read Keppe's work to get a fuller view. Our portal at trilogia.ws will lead you in some interesting directions, and of course, I'm always available to steer you in the right direction at rich@richjonesvoice.com. On our last program, we showed how Freud and Darwin made crucial errors that have led society and science in the wrong direction totally.

Especially as our materialistic worldview would tell us that truth depends. And this idea of relative truth is a lie that comes to us from somebody else's head. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the Fathers of the Lie. If you've been tuned in to our program for awhile now, you'll know that we're based on the science of Analytical Trilogy, which is trilogical because of its union of philosophy, science and spirituality. And this spiritual part is an important aspect of science that was for all intents and purposes cut out of scientific consideration with the rise of positivistic science in the middle of the 19th century. Auguste Comte, the father of Positivism, talked about the quest for truth going through 3 phases, with the theological being the first or, we could say, most primitive. The philosophical phase would be next, and the positivist the last, meaning the most mature. And this last phase states that we know the most when we base ourselves on actual sense experience. Right away, we can find some flaws with this view in that we know many things without having experience. Recent studies at Yale and Berkley suggest that little babies have working knowledge of basic arithmetic and physics principles as well as a well developed moral sense. And all of this with with no previous sensory experience. So, linking all our societal development to positivistic science bases us not on something superior, but inferior. And we desperately need the amalgamation again of science with philosophy and theology or spirituality, which is precisely what Keppe's work of Analytical Trilogy does. More about this expansive work can be found at our Trilogy portal, or write me by email for more information or observations or questions. Always great to hear from you. Our program today will be the first of two parts exploring how the inferior sensory-based science got so entrenched in our academic institutions - and our society in general. It's the result of a great lie perpetrated and followed by many great thinkers who were fooled into following the lie. And that lie has been inspired by the supreme liar in the Universe - Lucifer. And that's why reintroducing the 5000-year wisdom from Judeo-Christian theology is so important. Keppe knows this, and that's why I consider his science to be the most important science to be studied in the world today.

And we're vaccinating a significantly larger number of kids because of it. Many hospital boards and health care systems even link incentive pay for executives and directors to their pediatric immunization rates. But there's more than a conflict of interest going on here. Vaccinations, it appears, are downright dangerous. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Re-thinking Vaccines. Well, get ready to have your eyes opened. Dr. Roberto Giraldo has brought something very interesting to Brazil since moving here from New York City. Giraldo is a Colombian medical doctor with a speciality in infectious diseases and immunology. He's worked a lot with AIDS patients all over the world and has much to say about the inverted medical system he's worked in for over 40 years. And he's been talking lately with Dr. Norberto Keppe. Keppe is the scientist behind Analytical Trilogy, which is the science I base these programs on. And they've been talking incessantly about the bad science Louis Pasteur brought to the world, and the forgotten enius of Pasteur's contemporary, Antoine Béchamp. We'll explore that a little more in our program today. If you start investigating the vaccine business, you're in for quite an eye opener. First of all, be very clear about this: vaccinations are a business. Forget all the drug industry hype about protecting our children, this is a profit-based endeavor through and through. A couple of years ago, independent market analyst, Datamonitor, commissioned a report from a vaccine analyst - and who know there even was such a thing. Hedweg Kresse was her name, and in this report she discussed the future outlook for vaccine profits. Turns out she's predicting that the introduction of high priced vaccines will induce some rapid growth in the pediatric and adolescent vaccines market. She's predicting that that market's goint to quadruple by 2016 across the U.S., France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the U.K. and Japan. They're projecting it. That means they're going to make it happen. The crucial factor, what'll make these stupendous profits possible, is the "introduction of a product into national vaccination schedules." This means they're preparing product, and marketing it through highly paid lobbyists to government officials in these countries. And then slipped in ominously right after this comment is consultant Kresses' admission that this product introdution into national vaccination schedules virtually guarantees market expansion and high coverage rates in the target population. "Coverage rates." My God, the language. That means the numbers of people who are vaccinated. You can just imagine the directors of the vaccine companies hashing it out with flow charts and projection sheets. Talking about windows of opportunity and profit margins and return on investment. Kind of chills the blood, doesn't it? But you know what else guarantees that these new high priced vaccines are adopted by various national vaccination schedules? Reimbursements. That corporate speak for payments to directors of hospital boards and health care systems based on the immunization rates they achieve in their institutions. So they're paid bonuses if they increase immunizations. That doesn't leave a very warm feeling in my heart either. With all this need for marketing, it makes you wonder about the efficacy of the marketed product, doesn't it? Kind of like junk food lobbyists pushing for their product's inclusion in school lunch programs. It's "good business" but I'm pretty sure the kids aren't going to benefit all that much. And so it is with vaccines - a dubious medical procedure with little good science behind it. Now I know this is a shock. Anything that cuts directly against the prevailing point of view always raises the hackles of some. But vaccinations, like Pasteur's Germ Theory itself, is something that's been marketed - peddled actually - by some who stand to make a ton of money by pPhilosophy,consciousness,metaphysics,physics,Analytical,Trilogy,Dr,Keppe,Keppe,quantum,physics,spirituality,education,economics,sociopathologyVaccines have been sold as essential for our survival.

Money, which is supposed to be a means, has Richard Lloyd JonesIt's a philosophy deeply entrenched in our North American view of life: make your money work for you, leverage your investments, make money while you sleep. But hidden behind these strategies is a massive trap. Money, which is supposed to be a means, has become the ends. Today, capital is more important than your mother. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Redefining the Relationship Between Work and Capital. One of my students, a Director at a large European supermarket chain, was lamenting the plight of human beings after returning from his summer vacation in Europe. "People seem lost," he said. "They seem very far from the basics of life. Then he went on to make an interesting parallel. When he was a boy growing up on the French island of Martinique, he became fascinated with bee-keeping. He learned the basics from his dad, then began to branch out to develop his own bee hives. Marked by a strongly competitive nature and beset with the rivalry that commonly springs up between sons and fathers, he set out to see if he could overtake his father's honey production. He studied and researched the latest bee breeding techniques to learn how to maximize production, do more with less, ramp up his production to steroid-high levels without increasing his investment substantially. He imported queen bees from France and America, bred them with his local product, and very shortly achieved impressive spikes in production levels. He admits to feeling a certain power in this, a sensation that he was creating some kind of super bee that would lead the way to continuously higher quantities of honey. But his success was short-lived. Hybrid bees, it turns out, are much more fragile than natural ones. They bred quickly and produced a big jump in honey output over the short term, but were genetically weaker and more sensitive to fluctuations in environmental cycles. What's more, their breeding cycles were totally out of sync with nature's. Bees would breed robustly, then fly out of the hive looking for flowers to pollinate, and the flowers wouldn't be out yet. Over the long term, my student realized, mucking around with nature had disastrous - and expensive - side effects. In our discussion, we were making the connections between the philosophy underlying his desires to out-produce his father, and the mania in business today to produce ever increasing profits based on projections and stockholder demands rather than natural business cycles. "If I'm to have any possibility of meeting those imposed financial goals," he told me, "Something's going to have to give. I'm going to have to take shortcuts somewhere - with employee relations or salary limits or even business ethics." So look at that dilemma. We're all twisted up inside because of exactly this struggle. Our megalomania causes us to impose our will on natural cycles so much, bending and twisting and changing everything to fit with our "getting more for less" philosophy, that we completely screw up the greater system. And then, oh, do we suffer! Because it's hard, sometimes impossible, to find our way back. Wasn't that lament exactly what Dante was articulating when he wrote, "Half-way upon the journey of our lives, I roused to find myself within a dark wood, for the straight way had been lost." This program based on Brazilian psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy, is an attempt to help us find the straight way again. I am always open to hearing from you about these themes. rich@richjonesvoice.com Today, we'll focus in on how much we've strayed off the path and gotten all twisted around in economics.

So maybe it is true that through art all men are saved. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Art and Transcendence. Whenever any of my colleagues here at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy bring art and esthetics as a classroom subject, the energy changes in the room. The students, often tired and stressed out after long days, perk up and something beautiful happens. In fact, one of my good friends down here, Helena Mellander from Sweden, a very gifted singer, was recently giving a lecture to a select group of human resources professionals down here in Brazil about the leading edge strategies for dealing with stress that are emerging out of Dr. Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy, and as part of her lecture, she sang a couple of songs. Well, let me tell you, it had a magnificent impact. Everyone felt it - the combination of knowledge/reason, and feeling/intuition. "There are certain moments that come along where your life is different afterwards," said one participant. "This was one of those moments for me." Art and spirituality go hand-in-hand. Well, they used to anyway. Consciously. But spirituality is always present with great art of any discipline. Keppe has always recognized this, and has written that art and esthetics is the basis of civilization. And incidentally, I'm writing this as I'm preparing to head off to our 6th Festival of the Arts at our Grande Hotel Trilogia in Cambuquira, Brazil this weekend. There are some wonderful things happening there that I'll be letting you know more about as time goes on. Our initiatives there are serving to bring the place to life, and it's been let go for many years, so we are witnessing a great comeback now. It's in a beautiful part of Brazil, nestled among coffee plantations, the verdant Atlantic Forest and some of the best mineral waters on the planet. It's a forgotten town in a jewel of a setting, but it's receiving new lifeblood now.

He was one of the most celebrated scientists of his time, and a giant in medical circles even today. He supposedly proved the Germ Theory of disease, the basis of most medical education. But Louis Pasteur's science was highly questionable. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Debunking the Germ Theory of Disease. Well, we are entering sacred territory today on our program. Pasteur's ideas have been sacrosanct for at least a century, and all significant medical research is based on his proposals. The multi-billion dollar industry that is cancer, AIDS and numerous other disease research initiatives if firmly entrenched in our western world, as is the powerful pharmaceutical industry, and even the areas of immunology and vaccination. Not much of modern medicine is untouched by Pasteur's influence. But in looking at his life, you enter a world of subterfuge, deception and just plain wrong conclusions that were cynically adopted by Carnegie and Rockefeller in the U.S. and used to influence medical research and education in most of the developed world. And for one distinct purpose - to sell pharmaceuticals that there were developing form the waste products from their coal and oil industries. That's right ... there were serious ulterior motives at play in the promotion of Pasteur's questionable scientific conclusions. Not the first time this has happened of course. Henry Ford was instrumental in leading the move in America for the creation of the suburbs. "We shall solve the city problem by leaving the city," he stated, thereby combining his social vision with his economic self-interest. You can sell a lot more cars if people are commuting back and forth for miles every day. This blatant manipulation for economic reasons is not new to us, is it? Were any of us surprised to find former vice-president Dick Cheney's company, Halliburton, picked to lead the re-building of Iraq shortly after its former CEO pushed so hard for the war that would necessitate the re-building? But what may surprise you is that there was an entirely different scientific view than Pasteur's being elaborated at the same time - in total opposition to Pasteur's ideas - and this science is the more certain one, as proven by research in many locations, including our International Society of Analytical Trilogy here in Brazil. And, of course, 2500 years of Chinese medicine. That more complete science came from the formidable research of French biologist and medical doctor, Antoine Bechamp, and who has ever heard of him? Incredible, isn't it? His work is far more in line with Dr. Keppe's studies in psychosomatic medicine, and this truly deserves our attention today. As always, you can check out all of our work on our Trilogy portal site, or email me anytime and I'll guide you in the right direction so you can learn more about Norberto Keppe's great science.

You'll hear loads about purpose, about forming habits, about listening and motivating and focus. And we read the books and watch the videos and pop in the CDs on the commute to work. We do the visioning they recommend, we pay for the coaching. But we're missing one important understanding. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the Psychological Habits of Highly Successful People. This is a follow-up to a Podcast I produced a month or so ago with psychoanalyst, Leo Lima. Leo joins me again today to penetrate a little deeper into this area of success. To be honest, this is not something we understand well in North America actually. For all our focus and purported reverence for it, I think we just feel, frankly, traumatized by the subject - or at least by the focus on only one aspect of success, that being the financial/fame aspect of it. We've had decades of Dale Carnegie and Napoleon Hill and the thousands of others with the recipe for success, and if we haven't achieved it within those narrow parameters, don't you think we start to feel a little desperate? Either that or we just check out completely, look at it all with an ironic and disparaging gaze, host another martini or hug another tree and congratulate ourselves for living a balanced life far from the craziness of the corporate climb. But this misses the point, too. Because there is something to all this success stuff. We don't have all this focus on it for no reason. The problem is we're asking the wrong questions. Instead of worrying about what we need to do to achieve success, what time management system we need to adopt or what habits we need to strengthen, we need to understand a metaphysical point: success is natural to the human being. We are made for this already. It's not something we need to build or reinforce - although there is certainly work and effort and discipline required. The whole thing is much more subtle and profound than that. We have all we need to operate at maximum capacity already. But we have attitudes - psychopathology in Norberto Keppe's language - against that capacity. This is some pretty revolutionary research that's being revealed from the International Society of Analytical Trilogy in Brazil where I produce these programs. And the content of Thinking with Somebody Else's Head arrives from these pioneering discoveries about the psychological and spiritual state of the human being. Our psyche, it turns out, has been understood, and its comprehension through Dr. Norberto Keppe's science leads us to far different conclusions than the vast bulk of published material that graces the book shelves and TV talk shows up to now. This makes Keppe's work among the most vital knowledge available on the planet today, which you'll hear in a moment. Keppe divulges all of his wisdom in over 30 books that contribute significantly to the intellectual treasury of mankind. You can explore those on our Trilogy portal site. I'd also like to invite you to participate with us in our call-in psychology show, Healing Through Consciousness. Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco, vice-president of Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy, joins me every week to take your calls and questions about specific areas of your life that you'd like some clarification on. We record every Monday at 2:00 pm ET - through Skype. Healingthroughconsciousness is our Skype name, so just enter us in your Skype contact list and you're set to go.

'68 was the last big one, but back in the '90s, a flu bug supposedly from birds caused a panic for awhile in Toronto. I was affected by that one, but not by fever or other tell-tale symptoms. Nope. The Rolling Stones canceled back then ... and I had box seats. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, let's take a critical look at the Swine Flu. We're very impacted by inverted science, as we've explored many times on this program. Scientists since Pasteur see all sorts of nefarious things in the microbes swimming in their Petri dishes. We have vaccines for this, medicines for that, radical radiation treatments to kill this and that disease. But we miss a key point when we look down at the microbic level to find the source of our maladies, and that is that disease doesn't really come from that level. Our materialistic philosophy introduced by Aristotle's great inversion that we understand reality through the senses has led us deeper and deeper into the quirks and quarks, and further and further from the universal understanding that Aristotle's master, Plato, suggested was inside us. "Infused science" he called it, saying we were born with it. Brazilian psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe, agrees with that. He talks about the universal concepts we possess. "Divine concepts inside the human being," is how he puts it. And this corrects Aristotle's metaphysical error: the lesser things don't create the greater, we could say. Meaning tiny viruses could never really CAUSE our maladies. They're there many times, but what lets them take hold is something bigger - the state of our psychological lives, which directly affects our immune system. Dr. Roberto Giraldo is a Colombian doctor, a specialist in internal medicine with a major in infectious diseases and clinical tropical medicine, and he's perhaps a perfect guy to talk about this. He works with AIDS and cancer patients all over the world, and he doesn't believe much in the Swine Flu scare.

Our predominating materialistic world view limits our discussion of it to fields of money or fame. But as our defining economic structure crumbles before our very eyes, we'd be well advised to try to redefine it. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Re-defining Success. Before we begin, I'd like to remind you of our other radio project ... a new show I'm developing with Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco, a frequent contributor here, called Healing Through Consciousness. This is a program focused on offering advice and counseling to you for any problems or difficulties that you want help with. We regularly take calls and emails to delve deeper into those difficult problems that you haven't been able to solve or get on top of. All the information about how to participate is on our site. Or feel free to write me anytime: rich@richjonesvoice.com There is much exciting and important emerging from the Brazilian school of Analytical Trilogy, the science I base these programs on. Our radio programs develop and spread those ideas, so do take the time to find out more. You'll be glad you did. We've approached the idea of success in a popular Thinking with Somebody Else's Head program way back in January of 2007, but I'd like to come at it again, this time from a little more metaphysical point of view. We're very limited in talking about success today because of the economic bias we bring to any discussion on the subject. From the Forbes List to winners on the Apprentice, we give a lot of airtime to success defined by an extremely narrow range of parameters. And that makes us very shallow and it deteriorates our cultural and even intellectual experience. Lily Tomlin expressed it well when she said, "Sometimes I worry about being a success in a mediocre world." Amen, Ms. Tomlin. What's the value of that? But there is a hunger for more. There has to be. Tell me there is. It's why I'm putting all this energy and time into this Podcast. Actually, we see evidence that people are seeking more in the acceptance of Norberto Keppe's TV show around the world - and Keppe's show is the polar opposite of the completely irrelevant discourse that defines today's TV talk show. And there's more evidence, too, in the worldwide acceptance flowing to Britain's Got Talent winner, Susan Boyle, an ordinary, anything but the usual collagen-lipped, air-brushed, made-by-marketing, limited talent wonder we're normally spoon-fed by our mediocrity-addicted media. We're hungry for authenticity. I often think of Keppe's Analytical Trilogy like the water of truth on our parched earth. So let's look at success in that light today.

Tulipmania was in full swing in the 1600s, and it looked much like the dotcom madness of the 1990s. It crashed eventually, of course, but caused little lasting damage. Could the same thing be true today? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the Stock Market Crash's Silver Lining. Of course, it should be pointed out that in all the madness surrounding the trade in rare and exotic tulip bulbs, the Amsterdam Stock Exchange never got in on the deal. Madness it was, with speculators brokering deals in taverns and bars, and some bulbs changing hands 10 times in a day. It's not much of a stretch to fast forward to images of amateur day-traders hunched over PCs and trying to make fast cash on gambling that kozmo.com stock prices will go down at some time in the future. But the big difference between 1636 and 2008 is that our stock markets, from the Nasdaq to the Nikkei, are heavily involved. And so today's worldwide stock market crash is marked by at least 2 things that distinguish it from the Holland of the 1600s: 1. It's worldwide 2. It's having a big impact on the economy Could there really be anything good about this? Well, not if you're looking at the situation form a traditional point of view. But the economic view of someone who understands the psyche of the human being and the distortions of society that spring from that psyche can shine a lot of light on the situation. This can help us see what's going on from a new perspective, and can even lead the way to correcting our distrotion and setting society on the right track again. We've looked at this aspect of the impact of Man's psyche on society in a number of our podcasts, and I encourage you to look through the Thinking with Somebody Else's Head archives for those. I can steer you in the right direction, of course, at rich@richjonesvoice.com Gilbert Gambucci has been studying Brazilian psychoanalyst Dr. Norberto Keppe's economic viewpoint on all this for the past couple of months and is putting together a blog to explore many of Dr. Keppe's ideas - especially as they relate to society. That blog - featuring great video of Keppe - is at www.promiseland.info. Check it out. Gilbert joins me today to explore the silver lining behind the crash of the stock market.

But it's the less well-known stories that make us catch our breath. The quiet, intelligent teenager down the street who overdoses. The cousin who doesn't make it through rehab. The childhood friend who gets in with the wrong crowd and is shot in a drug deal gone sour. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Drugs and Power. It's been awhile since I've posted an episode of TWSEH. I've been busy with a new and related project to let you know about ... a live radio call-in show I've been conducting with Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco, vice-president of the International Society of Analytical Trilogy here in São Paulo. Claudia's a much in-demand Trilogical psychoanalyst with extensive international experience in treating all manner of human relationship, health, work and personal issues. My idea for the past copule of years has been to create a forum where she and I could take live calls from listeners and offer our unique perspective on the problem. You see, I receive many emails from listeners to this Podcast asking specific questions about problems or difficulties. There's the young woman from the Balkans who's terrified of AIDS. The young guy in the Pacific Northwest who's concerned about his inability to stop sabotaging his relationships. The 2 brothers who struggle with depression. I help them as much as I can - I do special Podcasts on the themes, I write personally to all who write to me, I suggest books and other resources. But I cannot do what a psychoanalyst trained by Dr. Norberto Keppe can do. Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy is vast, and provides an analysis of the human psyche that no one - not Freud or Klein or Jung or Rogers, any of them - was able to accomplish. And that means that when this science is applied in a therapeutic way to personal or social issues, the analysis that emerges is right on the target. And that's what we want to do with this live call-in radio show. We're calling the program, Healing Through Consciousness, and all the information is on our site at www.healingthroughconsciousness.com, or of course you can email me at rich@richjonesvoice.com. This show is a marvellous opportunity to get some real overview of your problems or issues or questions about anything. So do join us. Our Podcast today is taken from our program actually, and entails Dr. Claudia's long response to a listener's question, about ... drugs. That enormous social problem. And the war on drugs? Welll, that's a deceiving name. Anyone who saw Ridley Scott's American Gangster film saw the movement of drugs into the U.S. from the Vietnam War. Afghanistan opium production climbed back to 96% of the world production after the American-led invasion there after 9/11. In some circles, the introduction of hallucinogenic drugs into the changing consciousness of the '60s was a direct plan to subvert that idealistic movement. And then there's the CIA's Bluebird Project to remember - a planned study to analyze the effect of drugs on mind control ... and we can imange what's happened with all that research. So when the question came up on our Healing Through Consciousness show, Dr. Pacheco jumped right into the heat of it. She's no stranger to the issue in truth, having published a searing critique of the role of governments and so-called law enforcement agencies in organized drug trafficking back in the late '80s. The American Drug Multinational she called it, and it pulled no punches. And Claudia didn't pull any punches in how she answered our caller's question either.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, The Keppe Motor: Revolutionizing Science, Technology and Energy. You know, sometimes there's so much happening at our International Society of Analytical Trilogy in São Paulo, Brazil, I literally don't know where to begin to bring you up to speed. The revolutionary discoveries and landmark psycho and sociological wisdom emerging from this Brazilian school of Analytical Trilogy founded by Dr. Norberto Keppe are impressive. Dr. Keppe's TV show is now being aired in 45 countries and 221 channels worldwide. Episodes of this podcast have been downloaded over 250,000 times. Our newspaper here has a weekly circulation of 50,000. Dr. Keppe's clinic is one of the largest private clinics in Latin America and is home to ground-breaking work in psychosomatic medicine coordinated by Dr. Claudia Pacheco - a frequent contributor to Thinking with Somebody Else's Head and my co-host on an upcoming live Internet radio call-in show on bbsradio.com beginning March 10, 2009 at 10:00 a.m. ET. Well, there's lots more to say, but you get the picture I'm sure. This is a hot-bed of the newest research into human potential and psychological science. And it's rock-solid stuff, let me assure you. No matter what area you want to enter - relationships, health, money, corruption and power, the arts - you'll find a persepective here that is new, fresh, provocative, and causes us to re-think most of what we think we know. In a good way. Check out our portal site to get an overview of some of what we're doing: www.trilogia.ws Maybe the hottest development here these days is the Keppe Motor, a light-years development in the capturing of free, essential energy. Let's find out all about that, and something about the revolutionary new physics principles behind it, too, with one of the inventors, engineer Cesar Soos. Click here to listen to this episode.

Actually, nearly every major figure in the history of philosophy has weighed in on the topic somewhere in their work. Free will ... the capacity of rational agents to choose a course of action from among various alternatives. Is the issue really that complicated? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Liberating ourselves from our free will. Well, Hume was right. The issue of the free will is contentious. And I'll be diving into the controversy, too, in a moment. A fascinating subject. But first, a number of you have been writing to ask that I let you know about the new call-in radio show I'm launching with world-renowned author and psychoanalyst, Dr. Claudia Pacheco. I'm not surprised there's so much interest. You who've been listening to this Podcast over the past year and a half must've come to appreciate the clarity and wisdom of the science behind this show. It's called Analytical Trilogy, and it's not an easy science to encapsulate in a sentence or two. Analytical Trilogy is essentially a union of theology, philosophy and science that gives us a comprehensive view of the psychology of the human being and the reflections of this human psychology on the greater social structures we live within. Our political structures, our wars, our education systems of lack thereof, our environmental challenges ... all have their birthplace inside the human psyche. And no one in history has clarified that better than the man behind Analytical Trilogy, Dr. Norberto Keppe. Whether it be something every psychologist or human potential workshop leader has weighed in on - like depression or self-esteem or self-sabotage - or something no one talks about - like the psychology behind the pathology of power - when we turn the Trilogical lens on the topic, you hear a perspective you've never heard before. And it lands. It feels right. It just "makes sense," as many of you writing to me have confirmed. And we'll be doing that kind of analysis, live, with Dr. Pacheco and I taking your calls and emails and answering your concerns personally. Can you imagine how impactful that will be? So, I'd like to keep you informed about that. We're projecting our first show to be on Mar. 10 at 10 a.m. ET (NY time) on BBS Radio - bbsradio.com But do get on my mailing list to stay informed: rich@richjonesvoice.com. Looking forward to hearing from you. Now, today, liberty and our free will. You know, we in the western world have this idea that we're really free, and that we're also really quite socially evolved. We have recycling programs in place, we're advanced in our social programs. And we also think that we're super tolerant and welcoming of all other points of view and cultural traiditons. Well, certainly we have that idea in Canada. We pride ourselves on our open-mindedness. But underneath our politically correct external persona, there is a high degree of censorship and intransigence. And all that means we're not really so accepting after all of ideas and philosophies that stray from what we perceive as our superior beliefs and ways of doing things. Go against that, and you'll find you're not really free to give that opinion. Sofie Bergqvist is a Swedish educator and lecturer and translator of a number of Norberto Keppe's books, and she joins me today. Click here to listen to this episode.

The hand-on-the-heart pledges that promised to lead us out of the darkness. The words from the speechwriters are scarily simple to speak. But after we're all softened up, after we're primed for change, we usually get ... more of the same. Will it really be different this time? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Obama: Hope and Virtue. Well, this is a topic I'm more than a little interested in. Hey, I'm a product of the '60s. I've still got a little of that revolutionary flame burning in me. The same flame that burned bright for a decade or so before it dimmed in the face of assassinations and Watergate and too many strange chemicals in our bloodstreams. And, of course, the "greed-is-good" mantra intoned in stock market boardrooms that carried the promises of easy money and double-digit returns on investment to any where were quick enough to jump on the bandwagon. And now that has played itself out and revealed itself to be nothing more than what we should have known it was from the beginning - and empty promise. Empty, why? Because it was based on an inverted philosophy: that it was good - even possible - to get something for nothing. You know, the scientific discoveries that I base this program on have a powerful finality: they allow us to analyze what's going on in us and our world through a clarifying lens, and that lens is a profound understanding of the human psyche and our society, which is, after all, just a reflection of what is going on inside of us. And through this science we can conclude that life, it turns out, is not a confounding conundrum or unsolvable riddle at all. Some conclusions have been reached about us and the universe we inhabit, and those conclusions have arrived through the work of an extraordinary scientist, Brazilian psychoanalyst and social scientist, Dr. Norberto Keppe. I've been exploring this on these podcast for the past year and a half, and I'll be expanding my discussions of Keppe's synthesizing work of Analytical Trilogy - a bringing together of science with philosophy and theology - in a new Internet radio show that I'll be launching in mid-March, 2009 with Dr. Claudia Pacheco. This'll be a live call-in show where we'll address specific problems and questions brought by callers and those who write to us. This will give you a first-hand look at how Keppe's Analytical Trilogy sees the human condition and the society we live in. Get on the mailing list to be kept informed of that: rich@richjonesvoice.com Keppe's perspective on our problems is refreshing and clarifying, as you'll know if you've been listening regularly to this program. And one of the things he noted right away when he moved to New York in the early '80s was the incredible decadence the country had fallen into. Every area was in decline, and this was being hidden by the appearances of prosperity that were being given off by the enticing profits on Wall St. A lustre we now know to have been polished by considerable deception and smoke and mirrors. Keppe warned us of this at the time - warned us that moving away from ethics and goondess and beauty would continue to bring disaster. And now we're smack in the middle of the crisis he predicted. And Obama seems to be hip to that, admitting that we need to be more responsible, more ethical, get back to work. We need to "put aside childish things," as he put it. I'm joined by a couple of American today, and together we'll look at Obama's promise of hope and virtue through the lens of Analytical Trilogy. Click here to listen to this program.

Everything we touch causes cancer. And our football team missed the playoffs. Again. No doubt about it ... living in the 21st century is bringing a lot of stress. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll dig deeper into what really causes our stress ... and more importantly, how a therapeutic science from Brazil can help us finally understand and deal with our admittedly stressful world. Here at the beginning of 2009, we have a pretty bleak outlook. Well, it's time to offer an anti-dote to all that. Some hope, if you will. And the moment I say that I realize how trite it sounds to our jaded ears. We've heard it all before, haven't we? This book, that 10-steps-to-a-greater-you, this magic pill. We're caught between wanting something to believe in and having been disappointed so many times we've stopped believing. Almost. We're cynical, sardonic, ironic as hell. But one of the problems is that we've been looking too much outside ourselves for resolution. It's tough to resolve our essential problem out there because the source of our difficulties lies inside here. And what we're exploring on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, what forms the basis of all our work at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy here in São Paulo, Brazil is a comprehensive science that gives us the consciousness needed to treat those inner demons. Norberto Keppe's Analytical Trilogy is a union of theology, philosophy and science that really fills in the blanks of our understanding of ourselves and the world we live in. As a listener wrote recently, "Keppe's greater principles make a great deal of sense." And sense is what we'd like to continue bringing in 2009. Let's try to make sense of stress today. We have a lot of if in our world. Helena Mellander is a Swedish journalist working in our Trilogical companies here in Brazil, and she's also been working for some months now to develop some deep health programs for companies based on Keppe's work.

We send out the cards with the heartfelt wishes for peace and goodwill. We sometimes sing the songs. But the desires for peace on earth and remembrances of the real meaning have long been obscured in the frustration of finding a blasted parking spot. Joyous Christmas time is not much of that anymore. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, let's re-visit the True Meaning of Christmas. I remember in my youth waiting for the Christmas spirit. That elusive feeling of peace and spirituality that would kick in at some point in the holiday season. It could be a cold evening visit from a group of carollers that did it. Or a visit from a much-loved but little-seen relative. Or maybe Scrooge's transformation in the annual family viewing of Dickens' A Christmas Carol. And now I'm dating myself, aren't I? It even starts to sound like I'm talking about the 19th Century! But it was something that did take over at some point: the Christmas spirit. For a short time, all would really be calm, all would really be bright. But around 2:00 pm on Christmas Day, we'd all start to feel the restlessness kick in. No stores to go to. Nothing open. Nothing to do. Actually, maybe that's why they instituted Christmas Day NBA games. Everyone just go too bored. And I don't think it's any coincidence either that the 26th - Boxing Day in Canada - is the biggest sales day of the year in my country. People are so jumpy they'll start lining up at 5:30 in the cold morning to be the first to slap credit cards on the counter to get the deeply discounted Blu-Ray DVD player or next year's Christmas wrap. But let's try to return today if we can to remember the true spirit of Christmas. Let's see if we can't overcome our materialism a little to have a new spirit this year - and one that is much needed. Dr. Norberto Keppe's Analytical Trilogy gives us a beautiful perspective - a theological, philosophical and even scientific insight into what should be our most precious and spiritual time of the year.

Those raised on the French philosophy of Sartre and Voltaire might lay the blame at the feet of society. More existential thinking would point the finger at individual responsibility. But only Norberto Keppe's new science gives us the tools to do a more complete analysis. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll look at the roots of our destruction, and what we have to know about ourselves in order to stop, which is the crux of the thing, isn't it? I'm Richard Lloyd Jones. Well, one of the very clear problems we run into when tackling the issue of what's going on these days is that we always wind up in the same place. There's this theory over here, that one over there, 3 more somewhere in the middle. How in the world does the ordinary citizen make sense of it all? There are so many problems in so many areas. The Comptroller General of the U.S. shocks us on 60 Minutes by talking about fiscal cancer and all that entails. Al Gore's excellent documentray warns us that the catastrophic deep freeze produced by special effects wizards in The Day After Tomorrow movie could actually happen. Fanatics talk about Divine retribution. You can get an earful in whichever direction you turn. But is there any way to boil all this chaos and crisis down to something chewable? Is there any way to point to an overarching and principal problem? And perhaps more importantly, if there is a defining explanation, can it also offer us a solution or two? I think "yes" on all those counts. You see, our difficulties begin in our way of seeing and relating to the world. We and the society we live in are products of what's going on in our philosophies of life, in our psyches. And there's one point from which we must start in considering this: we are not the latest editions of the human species standing on the most recent rung of the evolutionary ladder. We're not like software upgrades - the latest version with considerable improvements over Zinzanthropus Man from several million years ago. This is a key aspect of Brazilian psychoanalyst, Norberto Keppe's work: that we have all perfection inside us. As nature is complets, so are we. Our problem is that we deny and even destroy what we are. This makes our problem not one of not having arrived, of not knowing any better. No. It's more serious. We know what is right, what we should do individually and collectively to have a better world, to have the paradise we should live in. We know ... but we don't do it. This is something deep inside the human psyche, which is why it took a psychoanalyst to discover it. Dr. Norberto Keppe's work is totally about helping us understand this dynamic. And it's what we explore all the time in this Podcast. And what we'll be expanding into an Internet radio show coming in January. Make sure you get on the mailing list to be informed about that: rich@richjonesvoice.com That show will be conducted with psychoanalyst, Dr. Claudia Pacheco, who joins me on today's podcast as well.

After all, we go to the gym to keep our bodies toned, we go to the driving range. Why wouldn't we do something to address those psychological glitches that pop up in all of us? But what do we do when our whole society is showing signs of breakdown? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll try to put "society on the couch". But a couple of things first. I always appreciate hearing from you. Your feedback is really helpful in helping me shape the program, so don't hesitate if you've got a point or a question to raise. I'm always available - rich@richjonesvoice.com. If it takes me a day or two to get back to you, hang in. I'm getting to it. If you've listened to the Podcast for awhile, you'll know Dr. Claudia Pacheco very well. She's a frequent contributor here and frankly is indispensable to this program - and indeed to everything we are doing down here in Brazil at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy. Well, Claudia and I are working on something really interesting ... a live, Internet call-in radio program which we're targeting to launch in January 2009. Make sure you're on the mailing list to learn more - rich@richjonesvoice.com What this'll be is an online advice show with Claudia, who has 25 years of experience in Norberto Keppe's Analytical Trilogy - to my mind, the most innovative, effective and powerful form of psychoanalysis on the planet. Anyone who's got any experience with Trilogical analysis knows the experience of taking a long-standing issue to a session and getting a completely fresh take on it from the analyst. "Wow! I never saw it that way before," is a common comment. Keppe's Analytical Trilogy goes to the root of the problem, which is always something deep inside us, hidden from view. This is true deep psychology, often helping us see clearly for the first time long-standing issues that have been blocking us from achieving what we feel we have the potential to achieve. And who doesn't feel that? And after Norberto Keppe himself, Dr. Claudia Pacheco is the best in the world at helping people at this deep level. So this radio program will be very cool. To have a chance to listen to her weekly will be a great opportunity to address some of the core issues of human beings ... and you'll be able to call in personally with individual questions and issues. We're calling the program "Healing Through Consciousness", and we're both pretty excited about it. Make sure you get on the mailing list. We'll keep you updated. You know, we've had a lot of response to the last 3 podcasts looking at the roots of the economic crisis. A few thousand downloads of those programs - giving a pretty loud message that people are looking for some answers, some ways to understand what is going on. One of the applications of Keppe's work is in the area of social psychology - analyzing the society as we would a person's neurosis. And why not? The corporation's been given the same rights as a human being through some decision of Congress way back along the way. As the Federal Reserve - a mostly private institution - was created by Congress back in the early 1900s, even though they had no constitutional basis to do so. So why wouldn't we hold society's systems up to scrutiny? In fact, we must. I noticed in the N.Y. Times earlier this week that European and North American political leaders admit they may not be willing to fulfill their commitments to cap harmful carbon emissions or phase out polluting factories because of the slumping economy. A European Commission spokeswoman said, "Investing in reducing emissions is more difficult to do in times of economic downturn." This is simply hard to believe, isn't it? How in 2008 can we make decisions based on profits over the environment? Hard to believe unless you understand about Inversion, Keppe's seminal psychological discovery. Keppe says in his beautiful book, Glorification, "Inversion, sickness,Philosophy,consciousness,metaphysics,physics,Analytical,Trilogy,Dr,Keppe,Keppe,quantum,physics,spirituality,education,economics,sociopathologyNormally we see a person with serious problems we recommend professional help.

A change in Madonna’s marital status, too … for what that’s worth. Not that those last 2 mean much. And whether the first is truly meaningful remains to be seen, doesn’t it? One thing is clear, though … there’s not much change in the economic picture. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, we’ll continue our series looking at the causes of the economic crisis. Well, after a historic day at the polls, America has woken up to the same scary reality as before. Jobless rates are up, stock prices are generally down … well, you know the story. Some of you much better than me, actually. But what I’ve been trying to do in this series of podcasts over the past few weeks is investigate some of the reasons for the mess. And I don’t mean in terms of explaining how the sub-prime mortgage market suddenly went south. No. But one thing I can help with is getting at the causes of all this. This is no small feat, in reality, and can be done because of the expansive work done on the subject at the Brazilian school of Analytical Trilogy founded by Dr. Norberto Keppe. Look, one of the hardest things about trying to get a handle on what’s really going on is the style of the media. You watch CNN or CBS, and you get volumes of information. Analysis of the sub-prime aspect, reporting of G-20 meetings with ex-president Bush (and man, does it feel good to say ex-president Bush) … you get opinions and policies and figures, and spin, glorious spin. But it’s extremely difficult to pick your way through the information. It’s always been like this. In our Information Age, we’re bombarded with information but starving for perspective. You have to know how to understand all this, and I don’t mean in the sense of being able to debate economic policy - the benefits of government stimulus packages over tighter regulations and broader oversight, or vice versa. No, there’s got to be an overall view to be had. And it’s exactly here that Norberto Keppe’s work does what was before him very hard to do. Because of his success at mapping the human psyche, Keppe was also able to apply those findings to the society as a whole - verifying that what the human being does outside he first does inside himself. That our external social structures are simply the reflection of ways of seeing the world, of philosophies and biases and often questionnable reasoning. One of Keppe’s landmark discoveries is that we are inverted. We act against our nature now in favor of our inverted values. “Cash flow is more important than your mother,” as one Wall Street broker termed it. This Inversion stems from inside us. I want to start there today because understanding our psyche leads to understanding our society. And that means putting the finger on causes, so that we can take real steps to change, not just rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Shanty towns are springing up in southern California. We’re officially in recession, it appears. And what got us here varies depending on which side of the political argument you listen to. The only problem with that is … it’s a little difficult to get at the real root causes. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, let’s try to understand it a little better in the second in our series of what’s going on Behind the Economic Crisis. Depending on how long you’ve been listening to Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, you may or may not know that our work here is based on the extraordinary discoveries of Brazilian psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe. In a profound series of books he wrote in the 1980s, he essentially created a new branch of social science called “social pathology.” This was the application of his psychological assessment, analysis and treatment of the human psyche to the greater society in which we live. Our society, he determined, is a reflection of the unrecognized parts of our individual psychological reality. “The cycle is centuries old,” he wrote. “Man creates an increasingly sick society as he is increasingly sickened by it.” This awareness occurred shortly after he moved to New York at the request of a number of professors and academics to introduce his work there. He went expecting American ingenuity and “can-do” attitude to take his work,and spread it worldwide, as they did with everything else - from Breton Woods economic policies to pop music. But he encountered a country in trouble. “America has stopped working,” he noted. America was not producing anymore and was instead content to sit back and let the 3rd world do the work while they applied themselves to making money with money; that the U.S. was exploiting the globalization of the desire for a piece of the American Dream they’d so artfully perpetrated, stimulated and fed to chain everyone else to pulling the sled while they rode along behind, sucking up the profits. Keppe saw psychological Inversion in the creation of an economic system that rewarded a company with increased stock prices for lowering costs by farming out production to Asian sweatshops. He saw a psychological condition in the hunger for power and money and consumer goods that was causing us to destroy the planet in our insatiable desire for more, more, more. The three books I mentioned earlier were, and continue to be, extraordinarily astute and prophetic - Decay of the American People (and the U.S.), which we discussed in our last episode of Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, Liberation of the People: the Pathology of Power, and Work and Capital. These books discussed, analyzed and clarified the psychopathology of the human being that was manifesting in the social structures we had created. This was something remarkable for the time, and remains so even today. You’ll find those books totally relevant in today’s situation. Like they were written yesterday. Write me for more information: rich@richjonesvoice.com What Keppe noticed was the break in our social structures had made from our essential nature. From philosophy, Keppe knew that the essence of life was goodness, truth and beauty. At the same time, being successful in society often meant going against those values. We can’t suggest, for example, that the richest and most powerful among us got that way by acting like Mother Theresa or Albert Schweitzer. And we the people have bought into it all big time. We all want to throw our money into the stock market and see it double or triple or at least bring in 10 or 15% returns. And for doing what, exactly? As Warren Buffett has noted, we’re not a nation of investors anymore, we’re a nation of traders.

Financial crises have been with us since the stock market was invented. But let's not forget that everytime the market struggles, there's a ton of money pumped in to shore it up. Public money. But this time, there's a lot of resistance to it. Could it be we're finally waking up? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the first in a series of what's going on Behind the Economic Crisis. First of all, apologies for not posting here for awhile. I was very busy preparing for our 1st World Conference of Analytical Trilogy, which wrapped up last weekend in San Diego. It was a great event actually, that a number of loyal Thinking with Somebody Else's Head listeners attended - and I was very gratified to see that. Mike McVay joined us from Houston, Mark Carlson and Jane Reading were in from Sedona, Rozann Wellman and her mother flew in from Utah. And my fellow Canadians were there in some force, including Dennis Hilton from Vancouver, Will LaJeunesse and his father from Edmonton, and Jason Coombs, late of Windsor but now living and working with us in São Paulo. We had 3 1/2 days of very fascinating lectures and workshops that really highlighted the expansiveness and depth of Norberto Keppe's comprehensive science of Analytical Trilogy. We also had a chance to feature the revolutionary Keppe Motor at the event, and at a couple of press conferences in L.A. and San Diego. And now, awareness of this revolutionary technological achievement has spread significatnly all over the world. Our Keppe Motor site provides more information for you, and so does our blog. If you're really interested, set your Google Alerts to Keppe Motor and Analytical Trilogy to stay up to speed. We were, of course, in the U.S. during the historic Senate and Congressional discussions of the $700B bailout package proposed by Bush and Treasury Secretary Paulson. That was wild stuff to watch. Coincidentally, perhaps, we were leaving the U.S. during the dramatic no vote to the package last Monday. This was not the first time Keppe's work had been introduced to the country. Keppe and Claudia Pacheco were invited there personally back in the early '80s to spread their innovative and solutions-based work there. After years of admiring the American society, Keppe was shocked at the decay he discovered in America. He wrote a series of books aimed at conscientizing Americans of the wrong path they were heading down with the poorly conceived Reaganomic policies of the time. Liberation of the People, The Decay of the American People (and the U.S.), and Work and Capital laid it all out clearly - the decay, the pathology of power, the inversion of placing capital above work, the destruction of the ideals of the Founding Fathers and the Constitution, the solutions Keppe's work proposed. Although the American people loved his work (and still do), the power structures didn't, and it all culminated in Keppe and Pacheco fleeing the persecution in 1988. They lost everything, but re-established in Europe and finally found it safe enough to head back to Brazil. Their work flourishes here today, and our World Conference was another attempt to have Keppe's work sprout in the country that is so lost and so in need of real solutions. We're going to explore the problems behind this current crisis in the next few podcasts. First thing to say is that this is not a new crisis at all. As Keppe noted in the '80s, the economic orientation towards speculation was creating a disastrous situation in the country. Money policy should be linked to production, to work - not to encouraging us to make money with money, as Reaganomics was doing. All the production of virtually everything has been moved offshore - to China and Mexico and India and Taiwan - and this is a disaster for the U.S. If there's no production anymore, what generates the cash? Speculation.

We're sick because there's a nasty flu bug going around. We vaccinate. We medicate. We pop vitamins and supplements to pump up our besieged immune systems. We're burned out and fed up. Because of what's going on outside. There's only one thing we forgot: the real problem is inside. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the Inner Game of Health. Well, this is a subject we can speak on with some authority here at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy in São Paulo, Brazil. Dr. Norberto Keppe, whose work inspires and forms the basis of our podcast, has been working with psychosomatic illness for decades. He formed the first psychosomatic clinic in Latin America at the Hospital das Clinicas, part of the medical school at the University of São Paulo back in the '50s. Here's how it'd work back then: the patients the medical doctors couldn't get anywhere with - the hopeless cases - they'd send to the new guy in that psychosowhatchamacallit department. Then maybe they'd roll their eyes and wink at each other knowingly. "What chance did this young upstart, Keppe, have," they'd suggest smugly, "When the greatest medical scientists of the time like them couldn't even get to the bottom of the problem?" But more than a few times they'd have to eat their tongue depressors when their patients - the hopeless cases - would come back with miracle cures and spontaneious remissions. All through this process of psychoanalysis he was developing. He refined his studies with work in deep psychology in Vienna with Viktor Frankl, Igor Caruso and Knut Baumgarten, and his work deepened profoundly with his discovery of Inversion in the late '70s. This was a psychological discovery that gave Keppe a glimpse of a fundamental problem inside the human being that caused almost all of his physical, mental and even social problems. Let me be sure to underline this: Keppe's discovery of our psychological inversion has connected all the dots of the map of the human psyche. With the Keppean understanding, we can treat all disease, all relationship problems, all self-sabotaging behavior - even problems at the economic and political levels, which were before this seen as totally disconnected from the sphere of psychology. Keppe's Analytical Trilogy is a unified science as no science before it has been. Join us in San Diego, Sept. 24 - 27, 2008 to get the overview of Keppe's comprehensive science as it is applied in many areas of human endeavor. www.wcatus.org. And of course you can write me anytime at rich@richjonesvoice.com Dr. Marcia Sgrinhelli is a Trilogical dentist who's been working with Keppe for 20 years. She's the autho of 2 books on psychosomatic dentistry.

There is much Richard Lloyd JonesIt flows inexorably underneath the American personality. Look on the bright side. On the sunny side of the street. Let a smile be your umbrella. That positive, can-do attitude has accomplished much. Why, then, do we have so much depression? There is much value in having a positive attitude, but the whole story is a little more complex. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, The Perils of Positive Thinking. First, a confession. I'm an optimist. A glass is half full kind of guy. I've always liked to try to see the good in others and in life. When I was doing a lot of seminar and workshop leading a number of years ago with my good friend, Dennis Hilton's company out in Vancouver, I used to use a favorite story: Two shoe salesman were visiting a village where few people wore shoes. One wires back to his head office, "It's no use selling here. I'm coming home. No one wears shoes." The second salesman wires back to his head office, "Incredible opportunities here. Send more product. No one wears shoes." All right, kind of corny. But I loved the attitude of the second guy. Still do. But since coming to study and work with Norberto Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy here in São Paulo, Brazil, I've come to look at this aspect of positive thinking in a new light. Perhaps more accurately, a more sophisticated light. Nowadays, with all the emphasis on cognitive therapy and behavior modification and even the power of affirmations, there can be a tendency to think that having better lives is simply a matter of progressive re-programming of our attitudes and behaviors. And the current popularity of The Secret and What the Bleep Do We Know propogate this notion further - I can accomplish whatever I want. Giving the idea that through our thoughts or ideas we can change the world. Austrian/Brazilian psychoanalyst, Norberto Keppe, is quick to remind us of a philosophical point of view though: that our being, who we are, follows action, not thinking. In other words, we are what we do, not what we think. It's our doing that governs our being. What complicates all this, of course, is that we often do ... unconsciously. I do things I didn't want to do. That's the problem, isn't it? Keppe has managed to map out the human psychic life. Over 50 years of clinical experience on 3 continents, over 40 books on the subject, exhaustive study of all the foundational pillars of philosophical, theological, psychological thought. It's expansive work, I can assure you. I've been studying it extensively for 7 years and I can truly say I feel I've penetrated only a few centimeters below the surface of this. But we will be exposing more of Keppe's work at our World Conference of Analytical Trilogy from Sept. 24 - 27, 2008 in San Diego. More information on that momentous event is available at www.wcatus.org. Including our unveiling of the Keppe motor - a free-energy motor that Keppe has developed from his work in The New Physics. More information on that motor is available at our sister site, www.stop.org.br But let's penetrate the human psyche a little more today. Keppe's book, The Origin of Illness, really lays out his psychological perspective. Write me if you'd like to know more about that book, rich@richjonesvoice.com Selma Genzani is a psychoanalyst at Keppe's Institute in São Paulo.

It was a significant mistaRichard Lloyd JonesAs we've explored before, it was Aristotle who led the compartmentalizaton of science into all its disciplines. He oriented us away from Plato's more universal perspective to looking down to the senses for understanding reality. It was a significant mistake, and in case you've never given any thought to how philosophy drives science, strap yourself in. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, The Revolution in Science, prompted by the discoveries of Brazilian/Austrian psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe. Now this is uncharted territory. Keppe has been working in the field of psychology for decades and has achieved something truly significant. Through his discovery of psychological Inversion, he has been able to finish the mapping of the human psyche. This is no small feat, of course, and a big statement. But as you begin to delve into Keppe's theories and clinical examples, you begin to make sense of many previously inexplicable behaviors - in yourself and friends and family members, and even in political and social movements and structures. Reading his book, The Origin of Illness, is a treatise on leading edge psychology and it's, frankly, light years ahead of anything else in the field. Keppe's big discovery of Inversion shows us that human society is upside down. We've inverted our values, our economy works against people not for them, our education system trains us to work for corporations, not to think and develop an advanced society. All this will be explored at our World Conference of Analytical Trilogy, Sept. 24 - 27, 2008. More information on that is available at www.wcatus.org And our upcoming teleclass series will explore this in much more detail, too. Write me for information on that ... rich@richjonesvoice.com This Inversion also affected Aristotle, and the fathers of modern science, Compte, Descartes, Newton, Einstein. Keppe applies his psychological wisdom to science as well to powerful effect. His book, The New Physics, which is available as a downloadable e-book, puts us right side up again, and it's the subject of our program today. Keppean researcher, Cesar Soos, joins us.

A flowering of all that is magnificent in the human soul. All religions guard the prophecy. Philosophies centuries of years old carry whispers of it in their writings. A time we lost once ... but are on the verge of recovering. If, that is, we human beings solve our problems. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, The Dream of the Americas. Our subject today is a beautiful one. An esoteric topic that we almost never hear about. But it's a story that has been carried forth for centuries. In the words of my guest today, a dream that's been passed like a torch from hand to hand by idealists throughout history. Told in stories to children huddled around fires, and fueled by passions that have shaped history. One day, the legends tell us, we will reach a much cherished golden age, "A new Jerusalem," as William Blake called it. "A promised land of inconceivable riches," as the Italian saint, Dom Bosco coined it. Norberto Keppe, whose work I base this program on, would say that paradise exists now, as it always has, and that only our psycho-socio-pathology stops it from appearing. A psycho-socio-pathology, by the way, that he has developed a scientific methodology to treat. With the purpose of, as he said recently, "to lead the human being back to the goodness for which he was created by helping him become conscious of the wrong path he has chosen so that he might return to the right path." Keppe's beautiful work - his life's work - will be discussed deeply and comprehensively at our World Conference of Analytical Trilogy this coming Sept. 24 - 27, 2008 in San Diego. Complete information on that is available at www.wcatus.org. Or by writing me at rich@richjonesvoice.com A few years ago, Dr. Claudia Pacheco, vice-president of Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy here in São Paulo, wrote an extraordinary book - The Secret History of Brazil - a product of a lifetime's interest and research in the movements of history destined to re-establish the Kingdom of God on Earth. This research revealed a deep link between the Americas and the lost tribes of Israel. And she discovered that the dream of all humanity for a time of peace and prosperity - the 3rd Millennium, the Fifth Empire, call it what you will - had never died. And were alive today.

And for most of reRichard Lloyd JonesThe mythology says there's a free hand of benevolence calming or cajoling the marketplace. But it seems that's mostly dogma. Economics is a theology, guided by whatever belief structure is in vogue in the brokers of power of the moment. And for most of recorded history, those powerful have not been our friends. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, The Economy of Destruction. This is a topic that's close to my heart, and what first got me resonating with the philosophy of Dr. Norberto Keppe. His book, Liberation of the People: The Pathology of Power, opened my eyes wide to the pathology behind the power structures, and changed forever how I saw the world. The idea that we could analyze society through a psychological lens was totally refreshing to me. And it helped calm a deep anguish I'd had because I could see the distorted social structure we were living in, but couldn't explain how it had gotten that way and how, after every election, everything continued pretty much as it had before. Keppe's book, by the way, is still available to you. Just contact me at rich@richjonesvoice.com for information on how you can get your copy. Well, that's something about Keppe's work on psycho-socio-pathology, but he's also put forward remarkable new ideas in science, too. His book, The New Physics, re-defines the laws of physics and energy and even genetics. Dramatically. Actually there's a big demonstration of this in a practical way in a new motor that's been created based on his work. A free energy motor that works on Keppe's disinversion of a basic scientific tenet that energy comes from matter. It doesn't. It comes from the essential energy field of the univers that is manifested into two forms - secondary energy, or electro-magnetic energy, the energy of Einstein's theory - and matter. Well, this'll become clear on our site. Check it out at www.stop.org.br. Just click on the English version of the site and it'll be right there. We'll also be exploring Keppe's work in great detail at our World Conference of Analytical Trilogy coming up in San Diego in September 2008.

We've seen them reduce users to living in hovels, and elevate dealers to palacial mansions. Legal or illegal, they're being used and abused in record numbers in our so-called evolving society. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the Inversion Driving Substance Abuse. Well, this is some topic to consider, let me tell you. Drug abuse is a monumental topic because there are so many aspects to consider. There's the personal aspect first. Probably all of us have some direct experience with it - from our favorite uncle with a drinking problem, to horror stories of close friends destroying lives and familes with out-of-control substance abuse problems. There's the social aspect of modern life being so bereft of meaning and purpose and spiritual values. There's the psychopathic aspect which is always present when astronomical profits are involved. But there is some considerable comfort to be found in the work of Brazilian-Austrian psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe, whose work we will be discussing in great detail at our International Conference of Analytical Trilogy (Keppe's science), Sept. 24 - 27, 2008 in San Diego. Write me for more information on that at rich@richjonesvoice.com, or visit our website, www.wcatus.org Shakespeare said, "How far that little candle throws his beams. So shines a good deed in a weary world." That is a perfect description of Keppe's work. Reaching to the core of our difficulties and offering a strong hand up and out, and into our true position as beautiful, good and true beings in a loving universe. But we have some problems to see along the way. Sofie Bergqvist is a teacher here at our International Society of Analytical Trilogy, and she's been developing deep work in the roots of substance abuse for our September conference.

Art, Marc Chagall said, must be an expression of love, Richard Lloyd JonesThe most famous expressions of it are found in the world's great cities. But it's also scratched in caves and carved on rock walls. And it's also pinned beneath fridge magnets in kitchens everywhere. Art, Marc Chagall said, must be an expression of love, or it is nothing. No doubt about it ... art is really an emanation of the human soul. And that makes it transcendental. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Art and Reality. Art and creativity flow out of us when we're kids. That's maybe universal. The problem, as Picasso knew, was how to remain an artist once we grow up. Because we don't usually. And maybe that reflects a tendency we have to reject beauty and esthetics - a rejection that ripples out into our societies and cultures. Because we don't see art being given the value it should in our world. Art, so essential an emanation of the human soul, is irrelevant to a worldview that sees the primal force in live only in survival. From this viewpoint, the jumble of chemicals and compounds and biological processes that makes up man is moved only by the urge to multiply. Nature does not favor beauty or goodness or truth, these learned minds tell us. To them, the magnificence of creation is collapsed to the mundane formula of genetics plus time. We sensitive human beings know that to be complete hogwash, of course. There is absolutely no survival need for artistry, but it exists in all of us ... though you might be hard pressed to find it in any of my personal attempts at drawing anything. Brazilian/Austrian psychoanalyst, Norberto Keppe, whose work we will be exploring more in our upcoming teleclass series (and just write me for more info on that and to get on the mailing list - rich@richjonesvoice.com) Keppe has declared openly that art - esthetics - is the basis of civilization and our link to the eternal transcendetnal world ... and God. A far cry from survival of the fittest. Helena Mellander is a Swedish journalist and singer who's joined me to talk about art and reality. Click here to listen to this episode.

But with the new discoveries in psycho-socio-pathology, it's now possible to lay the blame squarely on our shoulders. Let's face it ... if we're sick or troubled, somewhere in our psychology, that's what we want. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the True Origin of Illness. I know, there are many people writing these days about sickness and health from a more wholistic perspective, but somehow no one has defined the origins of illness quite as completely as Norberto R. Keppe. That's a big claim to make, of course, and probably needs some backup. Keppe created the Department of Psychosomatic Medicine at the clinical hospital of the University of São Paulo - the largest hospital in latin America - back in the '60s. Here's how it worked in those days: the most hopeless cases, the ones the medical doctors couldn't get their heads around, ended up in Keppe's office for a little of his innovative psychoanlytical technique. And many times, walked out healthy. From alergies to heart problems to gastrointestinal difficulties to terminal diseases, he kind of worked magic on them. His results continued at his own private clinic - and continue to this day - offering a revolution in treating any type of disease. And the core of his work is this: illness is an aberration. It's a sign that we are doing something to distort or negate our true and healthy nature. And that blockage can be identified and treated, restoring the natural health that underpins all of life. Where Freud got lost in the pessimism of seeing us as having this pathological unconscious full of bad intentions and animal instincts - and proposing that this was natural and unavoidable - Keppe restores hope by seeing us as naturally good and healthy beings in essence ... but with many inverted attitudes against that sanity. Attitudes that can be treated and controlled. There is a deeply spiritual aspect fo Keppe's work, then, that focusses the discussion of why we - and our society - are so sick, on the human psychological life. And that's something his work throws mega spotlights on. Keppe understands the human psyche better than anyone in history since Jesus - and we have much to gain by turning to his wisdom. By the way, we'll be exploring the implications and impact of his work in many areas of human activity at our World Conference of Analytical Trilogy this coming September, 2008 in San Diego. Check it out at www.wcatus.org And another note ... we're finally in production for our teleclass series that we've been promising for some time now. We've been a little slow getting that off the ground. We get busy around here, and it's a push to do these extra things, but I appreciate your patience. If you'd like more information about this series, or anything else you've heard about on this Podcast, just shoot me an email: rich@richjonesvoice.com Today, psychoanalyst Leo Lima, who's worked closely with Keppe for 25 years, takes us on a journey to the origins of illness.

Its strikes are sudden and unexpected. But we think of it only in terms of our enemies. We, we declare self-righteously, never engage in terrorism. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Truly Combatting Terrorism. A special presentation today: a complete re-playing of an interview I did with Dr. Norberto Keppe 5 days after 9-11. The views of a leading psychoanalysis on one very crucial topic we need to probe much deeper in our society - the roots and solutions to terrorism. More in a moment. First an update on our upcoming congresses and conferences on Analytical Trilogy, Dr. Keppe's science of socio-psychopathology. If you've been listening for awhile, you'll know we have 2 similar events planned for 2008: one here in Brazil, and one in San Diego. If you're interested in learning more about Analytical Trilogy, how do you make a choice? Let me help you. Our International Congress of Analytical Trilogy here in Brazil from July 4 - 6, 2008will be for those of you who are resonating with the work we are doing in Brazil in terms of economy, business, residences, publishing, our Integral Psychoanalysis clinic, and the pulse of Norberto Keppe's work. Check out our site at www.trilogycongress.org. In San Diego, our World Congress of Analytical Trilogy will be looking at the specific applications of Keppe's work in a wide range of areas - from family counseling to the arts to drug rehab to media and journalism. Lectures, workshops, symposia, all looking at the influence Analytical Trilogy could have in a wide area of human activitiy. www.wcatus.org You know, I moved to Brazil from New York City in July 2001, 2 1/2 months before 9-11. So when that infamous incident occurred, I was keenly aware of it, and shocked, like most of us. I asked Dr. Keppe to sit down with me and record an interview about his views on terrorism, and how we could begin to process this and even understand and respond to it. Keppe hit some deep chords in this interview, about maturity and consciousness and drew a much bigger circle around this issue than any commentator I've heard then or since on the subject. I'm going to run that interview now, in its original Portuguese dubbed into English by my friend, Gilbert Gambucci. The quality is acceptable, but not fantastic. I've cleaned it up as much as possible, including re-recording my questions. But the content is startlingly original - and deeply therapeutic. Let me know what you think. rich@richjonesvoice.com Click here to listen to this episode.

In that time, it's identified essential aspects of the human psyche. It's allowed us to analyze our myriad personal and social issues. And it's elaborated new work and living structures that solve many long-standing inequalities. And one more thing - Trilogy is calling some new people here. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Jason's Excellent Adventure: A New Canadian's View of Trilogy and His Country. First, I'm always happy to get email from you about the show. Whether it's a comment or a question, it's always good to know what you're thinking. And I"m looking to have contact with as many people who are listening to Thinking with Somebody Else's Head as possible, because we are expanding on what we offer with this program. I know I've been talking about this for some time, but I want to encourage you to just drop me a line with your email address so I can keep you updated. I'm making some new Keppe books available very soon, and we're developing our teleclass series, and I'd like to be able to contact you directly whenever something cool comes along in our work. So please fire me off a quick note if you haven't already so I know you're listening and I'll keep you in the loop. rich@richjonesvoice.com You know, Norberto Keppe's work deserves to be studied seriously because it is a serious scientific school of thought that considers the impact of the human psyche in areas as diverse as relationships and economics, the impact of our minds on our health, the disinversion of science and banking, and even how to develop your career and business. Our World Conference of Analytical Trilogy in San Diego, Sept. 24 - 27 2008 will be an excellent overview of this incredible science. You can check out details at www.wcatus.org One guy who's responded to Keppe's work through this podcast is a young Canadian named Jason Coombs. He's been listening for the past year and a half and corresponding with me and finally took the big plunge to move down here to study more. I thought it would be interesting for you to talk to him about his story and his first impressions of Trilogy and its specific applications to our country - Canada.

But some of them stay with us like messengers that have something to tell us. And it's significant that the greatest psychological investigators placed a lot of stock in them. And today, we will, too. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the Clarity of Dreams. But first, one thing I've learned since moving from Canada 6 1/2 years ago to study with Norberto Keppe at his International Society of Analytical Trilogy is ... you have to be flexible. They do things differently down here. It's not like North America where we're raised with the business-like mantra, "Plan the work and work the plan." Things down here operate much more by inspiration. And it's happening again. New inspiration that is. For the past few weeks on the program, I've been talking about our International Congress of Analytical Trilogy here in Brazil July 4 - 6, 2008. And any of you who come to join us for this great event will be invited to stay on with us at our hotel conference center for a few days after the event for some study and working sessions on Keppe's science of psycho-socio-pathology. Well, any event we hold at our hotel is phenomenal, and this will be no different. More information about that event can be found on our site at www.trilogycongress.org. And of course, as always, if you need to know more, write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com The new inspiration is linked to another exciting event we're organizing in the U.S. - the World Congress of Analytical Trilogy in San Diego from September 24 - 27, 2008. More information is at www.wcatus.org. So now you have your choice ... come on down here to beautiful Brazil and experience the science of Analytical Trilogy here in the center of the work and our companies and all that's going on down here. And it's a lot, believe me. Or fly to San Diego and join us there. If you need help making your choice, I can help you at rich@richjonesvoice.com One thing I do know ... with 81% of Americans in a recent CBS/NY Times poll saying the U.S. is headed in the wrong direction, it's pretty clear a new orientation is needed. And here on the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy, may I suggest that Norberto Keppe's work carries on from their extraordinary initiatives. But with something these others didn't have - and that's a profound understanding of human psychopathology. Why, when we all know we should stop war and feed and educate people and stop killing and torturing people we fear, why don't we do that? Keppe's science can answer that question and give us a means to really effect change in the human condition. But more on that in our next program. Today, dreams.

Homes torn apart. Artistic and philosophical movements stopped dead in their tracks. While some may rhapsodize about the war years being the best years of their lives, perhaps this is an example of selective nostalgia. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, The Media and War. I remember the Edwin Starr hit from the '70s - War: What is it Good For! And the strong exclamation point in response - Absolutely Nothing. Now, this is a delicate subject because many people have lost loved ones to war situation, so I do not in any way to come across as disparaging their memories. My point of view is that it's a terrible thing that we have any situations here on earth - especially here in the 21st century - where any human beings are losing their lives because we have not found a way to live together without killing and torturing each other. I believe we should be able to live in a world where the laying down of life for country or religious group or tribe would simply never come up. So it is from that perspective that I would like to step out and explore this subject. And I hope I can express myself well enough here to add something valuable to the conversation that we actually have very seldom - to our shame. That being said, most of us can agree at least with the idea that war is a last - and I mean way, way distant last - option for solving problems. So let me try to offer a psychological perspective on war and aggression here on the 5th anniversary of a completely unnecessary war in Iraq. Norberto Keppe is a Brazilian psychoanalyst whose work can give us a profound view of all aspects of human experience - particularly the sick ones. For Keppe, the essence of life is goodness, truth and beauty. All that exists, by itself, naturally, has those qualities. Any deviation from that is created and maintained by we human beings. And the moment we stop feeding destruction and evil and sickness, they stop. This is a profound basis from which to move out in analyzing life and social situations, of course, and is the one we will adopt in looking at human war today. My guest is Italian journalist, Fabrizio Biliotti, who sat down with me recently for an expansive discussion about the role of the media in analyzing the world we live in - especially as it relates to war - and our most high profile war in particular.

Drug companies are throwing new drugs on the market continually. And all this vaunted "medical care" is killing us in record numbers. We're getting sicker and sicker. And our medical perspective is leading us further and further from a solution. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, True Medicine. There's much coming out of the psychosomatic department at Norberto Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy that is ground-breaking. Keppe is a true pioneer in the field. For over 50 years, he's been curing people of severe and minor health conditions, from cancer and AIDS, to migraines and eczema, using nothing more than psychoanalysis - albeit psychoanalysis with some teeth in it, as evidenced by its ability to get to the core of the issue rather than just moving things around on the surface like so much of today's health techniques - including even the highly-touted alternative methods. More in a moment. First, a reminder of our International Congress of Analytical Trilogy from July 4 -6, 2008 here in Brazil. Our web page is up now - www.trilogycongress.org. This will be an in-depth look at many practical applications of Norberto Keppe's work in psycho-socio-pathology that will bring you a lot of consciousness and maybe even inspire you to study with us to learn more so you can apply it in your field of work. Check out the site - www.trilogycongress.org - and write me if you are interested in joining us - rich@richjonesvoice.com Speaking of learning ... I'm working with Dr. Claudia Pacheco - my guest on today's show - to develop a very exciting teleclass series for those interested in learning more about Analytical Trilogy and discovering how it can help you in your careers, relationships, health and general understanding of the world. Make sure you write me to get on our waiting list for this. It's coming soon. Now, Norberto Keppe is the name of the brilliant Austrian/Brazilian psychoanalyst whose extraordinary work forms the basis of this program. And he has elaborated the first true psychology the world has ever seen. Where others have gotten only so far as seeing human problems stemming from sex and family problems, or trauma, or society's negative influence, or chemical imbalances, Keppe has re-defined the field to lead us back to the source of all our problems inside ourselves, which then also manifest outward to our greater society. If we feel bad, Keppe asserts, it's because of some denial or rejection of health inside us. Thus, our attitudes and ideas and emotions need attention. This has huge implications in the area of physical health, as we'll discuss today - much more than the food we eat or the vitamins we ingest or even the DNA we have.

A humbe civil servant, he rose from obscurity to change the world of science - and alter how we see the world. He was known and famous for his Theory of Relativity. Only one problem - Einstein's scientific theory was fundamentally flawed. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Einstein's mistake. Well, he was obviously a great genius, and a great humanitarian. But there was a fundamental flaw in his scientific vision that is mirrored in almost all science today. And we'd like to address that in today's program. But first, I've been talking for a few weeks now about our upcoming International Congress of Analytical Trilgy - Analytical Trilogy being the name of Norberto Keppe's science of psycho-socio-pathology. Our website is up an online now ... check it out at www.trilogycongress.org We have a great event planned July 4 - 6, 2008, and an extra 5 days or so of activities at our hotel for those of you coming from out of town. Write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com if you need more information. You know, I've been doing this program for a year and a half now, and enjoying very much the emails I receive from you with questions or suggestions for topics or even problems from your own lives that you'd like help with. I've been thinking and talking to the psychoanalysts at Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy about it for awhile now, and I'd like to provide those of you who are interested with a special Member's Only program. I'm planning a specific podcast where I sit down with Claudia Pacheco or another analyst from our clinic to deal with your specific issues or problems. You'd write to me, I'd open up the subject with the analyst, and those programs would be available only to those who've registered. As well, I'm going to offer a special teleclass with Claudia Pacheco once a month on fundamental points of Keppe's science of psycho-socio-pathology that will help you understand yourself and others and the world we live in much better. It's a pretty exciting service because the work we're doing here in Brazil is having impressive results in education, coaching, self-development, etc. I'm sketching it all out and will have a finished offer to you very soon, but I'd like you to register with me for more information and I'll send it to you personally when everything's together. rich@richjonesvoice.com Today, science and Einstein.

And in these years, we ostensibly learn invaluable lessons for the rest of our lives. Still, I can't help but remember Einstein's thoughts about it: "Education is what remains after you've forgotten everything you learned in school." Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Treating Problems in Education. Well, this is a subject close to our hearts here at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy because we work with education a lot. But let me describe something about our structure here first. As you may know from listening to Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we've been working with new ways to structure business since the mid-1980s. When the president of ISAT, Norberto Keppe, upon whose psycho-sociological discoveries I base this show, was invited to take his work to the U.S., he was frankly shocked at the massive decay he noticed there. He wrote a number of books about it, most notably Liberation of the People, Work and Capital and the Decay of America. One essential aspect of Keppe's critique centered about the mis-guided policies of Reagonomics. Keppe noted that the policies of speculation being promoted by Reagan and Friedman, the economist who oriented him, was moving America away from producing goods and into making money with money. This makes money more important than work - an inversion that seriously weakens an economy, because nothing real can be built on speculation only. This creates an inflated virtual economy floating above a non-existent foundation - which used to be based on work and production. So, Keppe organized Trilogical companies based on disinverted principles, such as workers owning the company, payment occurring based on production, not the money invested by a person, no one making money on the work of others. And one of the businesses we run this way is Millennium Language Schools here in São Paulo, where we employ Keppe's studies in psycho-socio-pathology to teach people. With great effect, I might add. Luciara Avelino is a Brazilian teacher who has worked here for over 10 years. In addition to her teaching duties, she now conducts workshops to help teachers and students understand themselves better so they learn better. Click here to listen to this episode.

Others that greed and the lust for power are behind it. Still others say it's just our nature. We're too soon out of the jungle. But these are unsatisfactory to those working to solve the question, "Why is human society in such terrible shape?" Now, here in Brazil, one scientist has managed some final answers. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Humanity's Core Problem Explained. Norberto Keppe's science is called psycho-socio-pathology, and it's the result of more than 50 years of clinical research into what makes the human being tick. I'm pretty impressed with it because it provides some definitive conclusions about what's going on in the human psyche, and how those murky bits are manifesting in the collective society as well. We'll be providing a great look at Keppe's science at our 19th International Congress of Analytical Trilogy July 4 - 6, 2008 here in Brazil. A State of the Union address, if you will, on the definitive conclusions about the human psyche and how we can treat it and the inverted social structures that are born out of it. Just write me for more information on that ... rich@richjonesvoice.com You know, after the initial discoveries of Freud, Klein, Jung and others, the science of psychology lost its way in the behaviorism of Skinner (which saw human beings as nothing more than pigeons who needed a good behavioral re-programming), and the more social therapies of Rogers and Karen Horney. We could consider that, before Keppe, the study of the human psyche had come to a dead-end. After a promising start by Freud and the early Germans, psychology got distracted by a number of more superficial treatments like behaviorism and the various humanistic talk therapies so popular in the U.S. today. Or got lost in the Siberia of psychotropic drugs that is modern psychiatry. Most of the world lives under the illusion that the human psyche, like the human genome, is still being mapped. This is not true. Norberto Keppe has completed the study of the human psyche in a substantial way. That's what we´re going to talk about today, with Dr. Claudia Pacheco, vice-president of Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy.

We can defend it, or march out against it. We can propose elegant legal arguments to justify it. But when the jingoism dies down, any rational human being must as the same question Bobby Kennedy did: "What has violence ever accomplished?" Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Violence Kills Us - Not the Other Guy. This program is based on some extraordinary philosophical proposals put forward by psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe. Not completely new ideas because many of the ideas have been considered by humanity's greatest minds for millennia. But what is new is the nature of synthesis in Keppe's work. He has managed to unite many ideas behind one vast world view that is comprehensive in its understanding. So while many have considered the essence of man, like Aquinas, or analyzed the sickness of the socio-economic structures, like Marx, or investigated the light and dark in the human psyche like Freud, no one has managed to unite everything into one science that allows us to see what we truly are in our God-given essence. Keppe's science of psycho-socio-pathology is fascinating, profound and enormously vast in its scope. We'll be exploring it in depth in our International Congress on Analytical Trilogy - that being the name of Keppe's science - from July 4 - 6, 2008 here in Brazil. Anyone who's interested in that will be invited to stay on at our conference spa for a few days to consider the themes of psycho-socio-pathology - perhaps with Dr. Keppe himself in attendance. Write me for more information about that - rich@richjonesvoice.com I also want to update you on our BrainFood Community which we're setting up to give you more education on this science. This idea is morphing somewhat after conversations with Dr. Claudia Pacheco. We'd like to create a training program to teach the skills of psycho-socio-therapy. This will include teleclasses with Dr. Pacheco and others of us from the International Society of Analytical Trilogy, a newsletter, Q & A sessions, and more. It'll be very specific training to help you develop the understanding and tools of psycho-socio-pathology that you'll be able to apply in your sphere of influence. Again, rich@richjonesvoice.com to get on our mailing list for updates about that. A few weeks ago, Gilbert Gambucci explored the roots of racism very effectively on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head. When he came to me with some ideas for tackling violence, I jumped at the chance to look at this pathology through Keppe's eyes. Click here to listen to this episode.

Others become depressed and even suicidal. Some turn on the TV or spend more time at the gym. Many of us just throw up our hands in despair. But a few are looking for - and finding - solutions. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Social Activism and Solutions. This is, in a way, a follow-up to last week's program with Dr. Claudia Pacheco. She was talking there about society being on a dead-end street and how we have now reached some final conclusions about why that is - and how we can begin to treat this source problem. Dr. Norberto Keppe's work gives us the knowledge and tools to do just that. His science of psycho-socio-pathology helps us see why we are polluting and destroying and making so much war. Most activists focus on stopping those things - and that's, of course, necessary. But if we don't address the why we do that - which is in the human psyche - we'll be like the alcoholic who stops the alcohol, but replaces it with cocaine or sex or fanaticism. Here in Brazil at Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy, we're training people with the consciousness and psycho-socio tools to make a difference in their communities. To become psycho-socio-therapists. Imagine a journalist with the sufficient understanding of psycho-socio-pathology to be able to analyze world or local events through this combined scientific, philosophical, theological perspective that is tied to a universal reality of right, and justice, and goodness, and beauty and things like that. He or she would report on events in a completely different way than we see currently. Today, media, out of its fanatic adherence to a relativistic so-called "journalistic integrity" just throws all points of view together in one show or column and leaves you to pick up the pieces. With an understanding of Keppe's work, the psycho-socio-journalist would understand a basic starting point - there is a universal reality of beauty, truth and goodness, and any deviation from that could be seen and analyzed by him or her much more clearly. And that's just one area of action for psycho-socio-therapists! We'll be getting together July 4 - 6, 2008 here in Brazil to look at this science of psycho-socio-pathology, and this will be an excellent opportunity for you to start your training. Write me for more information: rich@richjonesvoice.com Today, I'll talk with Per-Erik Persson, a human ecologist from Sweden who works with the Jak Members Bank - a no-interest loan bank in Sweden.

Time Richard Lloyd JonesLook all around you and you'll see the rapidly mounting evidence of a society in deep trouble. Lurking environmental disaster, a pending recession, skyrocketing depression and suicide rates. Human society as its currently organized is at a dead-end. Time to admit it ... if we continue like this, we're done for. Now ... what do we do about it? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Therapy to Heal Society. For any of you, and I know there are many, who look around you and wonder, "What has gone so terribly wrong?", this program will come as a great relief. There are some practical tools that can be used to treat the inverted and even perverse social and psychological conditions in the world today. Thanks to the work of psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe, we can now say definitively that the source of our problems is clear. Human beings, out of their enormous envy, have inverted their values and elaborated an inverted society as a result. And then, on top of that, we censor perception of our envy and inversion and pretend that we are the masters of our own destiny and that we can solve all problems ourselves given enough time and money. But it will never work. In his extraordinary book about disinverting economics, Work and Capital, Keppe says, "The human being becomes ill as a result of his anger toward light, toward consciousness. He prefers to live in darkness, far removed from any perception. This is what causes his illnesses and all of the problems that beset humanity. At the same time that his intention is to know, he opposes knowledge entirely - and in the struggle leaves strewn along the way the ruins of a life spent battling against the truth." Se we are missing something fundamental. Human beings, in an incomplete, materialistic way, keep looking for superficial solutions - introduce this legislation, save that species, speak out about globalization and the corruption world trading agreements cause to the democratic process. And while all these may be necessary, they must be done in tandem with addressing our deep metaphysical crisis - we are turned against God ... and even our own existence. We are addressing this consistently in these radio programs, and have plans to expand this. We want to create a new community of Thinking with Somebody Else's Head listeners to consider these problems in society and what we might do about them. The BrainFood Community is what we're calling it (and thanks to listener Ludmilla Ducaneaux from Holland for the inspiration), so make sure you are on the advisory list for that so I can let you know more about it. rich@richjonesvoice.com You know, we are receiving a lot of interest from around the world for people to come here to our International Society of Analytical Trilogy to study and learn how Keppe's scientific discoveries can be applied to helping in all areas of society.

How do you keep the balance? Or ... and this may be controversial, is there any balance to keep? There are many opinions about the merit of self-interest, but we could turn to one great example for his thoughts. Benjamin Franklin cautioned us to deny self for self's sake. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Self-Centeredness - A One-Way Street Going the Wrong Way. I first wanted to make another quick announcement here while I have your attention about a new program we'll be launching soon for you to learn more about the concepts that form the basis of our work on this program. The great and important work of Norberto Keppe and his studies in psycho-socio-pathology. This will be a monthly program of articles and teleclasses where you can participate directly and learn more about yourself and how to apply this to helping others in your families, workplaces, communities, schools, etc. I'll be sending out something more specific to those of you who are interested, so make sure I have your email if you are. Write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com A couple of weeks ago, Claudia Pacheco and I had a look at narcissism, one of the hot topics down here in Brazil in our scientific meetings about psycho-socio-pathology. And very popular as a download on iTunes as well. And I wanted to approach the subject again - one because it's something of a way of being that I see creating havoc, not only in my life, but in the lives of many of my friends and family members. And second, because it is such a key that opens a door to understanding many of the problems we face in our society. You see self-interest blatantly expressed in huge corporations driven by greedy shareholders who don't give 2 cents for the company except as a vehicle to make them money. You see it in financial advice books like the one by Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki which cautions that the world's economy is going down the toilet and the best way to protect yourself is to make as much money as you can. Incredible! Contribute to the destruction of the world (and the economy as a consequence) by focusing on making money only (a prime reason we are destroying the planet now) so that when the economy and everything else is completely destroyed by actions like yours, you can move to some paradise and leave everyone else holding the bag. You see self-interest in the desperate drive to look out for number 1 first while millions starve. Norbert Keppe writes and speaks about this constantly in his books and TV shows. Today, I'm going to take a look at self-centeredness with psychiatric nurse and psychoanalyst here at Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy, Kerstin Arviddson.

Pasteur said, "The more I study nature, the more I'm amazed at the work of the Creator." And for centuries, the greatest geniuses considered the ultimate creative force of God fundamental to any understanding of reality. And then, it all changed. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Troubled Science. Before we dive into our admittedly heated subject today, let me just say Happy New Year to you, and send you my best wishes for a successful and conscious 2008. And consciousness we will need more of to begin to address our looming environmental crises particularly, but our other social difficulties as well. I, like many individuals in all countries on the globe, have been personally interested in that for years, but it wasn't until discovering the work of Brazilian/Austrian psychoanalyst, Norberto Keppe, that I began to understand the source of all the problems. Keppe's work outlines very precisely the psychological distortions that have led human society away from its true purposes, and caused us to erect social structures that actually make it impossible to live to our human potential. I started this radio program to begin to talk about these foundational discoveries because ... well, this is my medium. But there are other ways to find out more. Write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com and I'll steer you in the right direction. My dear friend, Susan Berkley, and I will be starting a special online and teleclass program very shortly based on Keppe's work, so stay tuned for more on that. Well, today, my colleague, Cesar Soos, and I are going to jump into the heat of the fire again. Seems whenever we try to offer a critique of modern-day science, our arguments hit up against a formidable wall of skepticism and unrepentant commitment to the current dogma that unfortunately characterizes the scientific world view today. But something changed in science. For centuries, scientists and philosophers were pretty much united in their consideration of God in their scientific understandings. Even Descartes, who was instrumental in the so-called Scientific Revolution that sought to free the human being from what it saw as the repressive superstition of organized religion, was a devout believer to the end of his days. But the scientific proposals that burst forth from that period of history influence us even today - and not necessarily for the better.

North American culture is full of sayings like these, and they reveal something pretty clearly about our philosophy of life, don’t they? One we are spreading all around the globe. Human beings really do look out only for themselves … and this is killing us. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, the Destructive Culture of Narcissism. It’s a appropriate time of the year to do this program because it’s a time of the year when we are maybe (although it’s debatable whether we really do this or not) a little more open to thinking of something other than me, me, me. And it’s this opening we’d like to exploit today on our program. As you must know if you’ve been listening to Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head at all, our association here in Brazil - the International Society of Analytical Trilogy - and our sister organization, the STOP the Destruction of the World Association, have a large objective: to make human beings more conscious of the problems in the human psyche which have never been adequately addressed and which lie at the root of our inverted society and feed all the destruction we are doing to our beautiful planet. We offer Norberto Keppe’s TV programs in many languages to community TV stations all over the world, we have books and publications available, we give lectures and classes. And there are two other important things to tell you about: 1) We’re holding an International Congress on Keppe’s science of psych-socio-pathology in July of 2008. Write me for more information on that … rich@richjonesvoice.com 2) We’ll also be starting a new program very soon where you can learn more about our work and how it can help your life. We’ll be offering monthly newsletters and teleclasses and Q&A sessions so you can really begin to penetrate this world of the human psyche defined by Keppe. Again, just write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com and I’ll make sure you get the information about this. We’re pretty excited about it and are hoping many of you who are regular listeners to Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head will take advantage of it. After all, we need to build a community of more conscious people, and that means understanding ourselves and our difficulties more completely. Which is what all of our work, and this radio program, are all about. Today, narcissism. Dr. Claudia Pacheco joins me again to look at this volatile subject.

From, "Why is the sky blue?" to "I wonder if Mary Jane likes me," to "How am I going to pay the mortgage this month?" We dream away our days and lie awake at night with millions of questions in our minds. But in our increasingly materialistic world, we don't usually even broach the essential ones. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Resonating with God. The essential stuff of life. What is that? We can look around us and be confused, right? It's all so ... mundane. Jeans ads that take up the entire side of a building. Companies throwing credit cards at us. Newspapers full of stories we have difficulties putting into context. We're overwhelmed with the sheer pressure of living in our highly materialistic and competitive societies. So we don't ask very often - we're not encouraged to ask - the essential questions. And then, suddenly, there's a crisis in the family or the community, with our health or livelihood, and it all comes flooding in. Who are we? Why are we here? What is it all about, Alfie? And those are sobering questions in those wee, small hours of the morning. Many years ago, I was walking through Gastown in Vancouver - in those days a lot rougher than today. It was close to Christmas, and a street person - a woman - was begging not for money, but for hugs. It was a strong reminder to a young student that humanity has missed the boat completely. We're so far from the essential elements of life that we're not even considering them much anymore. We just default to surviving, to getting by from one day to the next, and blotting out the uncomfortableness of the nagging unhappiness we feel with booze or pills or sex or TV or the line score of the Mets and the Phillies. This strikes deeply to the core of Norberto Keppe's work, which he has stated is to lead the human being back to the goodness for which we were created but have rejected out of our strong psycho-socio pathology. This school of study is well developed here in Brazil, and in fact, we are training professionals (psycho-socio therapists) to treat these inverted conditions in schools, churches, community organizations, etc. Our 19th International Congress of Analytical Trilogy, July 4 - 6, 2008 will address Keppe's science of psycho-socio pathology directly, and provide an excellent base for you if you'd like to learn to work with this essential level of human problems.

Optimists like to see them as opportunities in disguise as a way to change the negative definition. And still, we generally avoid them like the plague. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, The Power of Problems. Well, problems we have. Loads of ‘em. From the serious social ones like the dangerous and psychotic behavior that passes for leadership from people like Bush in our world today, to the more close-to-home difficulties like how to get Uncle Bob to quit drinking, to the personal, like, “why do I find it so difficult to speak in public?” The issues can be personal, but there is something universal in the treatment of them. And that is: we try to hide from our problems. This can be seemingly well intentioned like the usual advice to stop dwelling on our problems and think positively, as Ronald Reagan counseled as his way of overcoming the trauma of the Vietnam War. In this case, sort of a political sing along - Don’t Worry Be Happy. And just as superficial and even dangerous. A friend of mine ignored the lump in her breast for over a year, and by the time she finally got around to treating it, it was too late. When it comes to problems, by the time we get to, “Houston, we have a problem,” we’re usually only seeing the problem we’ve had for a long time. We need to get to the source of the problem and what’s behind it, and that means … seeing it. This is what Dr. Norberto Keppe’s work is all about: helping us to diminish our censorship to seeing our problems - both personally and, perhaps even more importantly, socially - through his science of psychosociopathology. We’ll be looking at many of humankind’s problems through the lens of Keppe’s science at our 19th International Congress of Analytical Trilogy from July 4 - 6, 2008 here in Brazil.

But Freud introduced a third option: you think you’re telling the truth, but you’re not. You’re just not conscious of it. Norberto Keppe has a deeper thought: you actually are conscious of your lie, but you’ve hidden that consciousness from view. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, Escape From Consciousness Island. Well, when you start to enter a discussion on the aspect of consciousness, you start to enter a pretty cerebral, theoretical world. I don’t want to go there. But I do want to till the field somewhat because there is a point of view about consciousness that’s not well spread yet through academic and lay circles in human society. Norberto Keppe, the creator of Analytical Trilogy, is proposing something quite revolutionary: the essence of man is consciousness. Plato and the early Greeks talked about this actually, about how we are born with universal knowledge and ideas. This seems to have been borne out by recent research out of Yale University showing that very young babies have the concept of good and bad in them before they’ve had a chance to learn it. Check out the study conducted by Yale University’s Infant Cognition Center published in the Nature journal in November, 2007. Socrates worked almost exclusively with this by engaging in dialogues with fellow citizens. He based himself on certain moral principles that could be seen as universal truths, and so any diversion from these in practice or thinking would demonstrate inconsistency or even sickness. Jesus’ teachings, of course, are our best examples of this. He was always exhorting us to look to the truth within for our guidance. Aristotle started the deterioration from this superior idea by suggesting that knowledge came only from the senses, from experience, and this opened the door to thinkers like Descartes to further deteriorate our philosophy of life by suggesting that universal values were relative. Keppe is returning us to the superior view in his assertion that we are conscious, we have knowledge. Keppe writes that the universals are concepts from God’s mind implanted in our structure. But being a psychoanalyst, he has noticed that we have attitudes of denying what we know. And he’s explored how and why we do that extensively in his vast and important work, which is also what we explore every week in this program. All of Keppe’s fascinating perspectives will be applied to an analysis of many areas of human endeavor in our 19th International Congress of Analytical Trilogy, July 4-6, 2008 here in Brazil. Critique and solutions through the eyes of psycho-socio pathology. Write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com for more information.

Races, religions, classes and cultures are lined up against each other. The ice is melting, the species are disappearing ... It can leave you feeling ... well, devastated. And it all causes a deep wound in the human soul. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Healing the Soul and Society. Well, this is a topic that is daunting to approach, because to begin to treat it means to go deeply into the causes of why society and human beings have gotten so far from the truth of human existence. And this challenges us. Those who hold to evolutionary ideas insist this is just the natural progression from the jungle to civilization. Those who are more socially active point to the transgressions of corporations or the inadequacy of control mechanisms and laws. Most of us are just trying to get by from one day to the next and don't give it much thought. But from the point of view of the science of psycho-socio-pathology developed by psychoanalyst Norberto Keppe, we are very far from our true existence, what we were created for. In other words, we are not living as we should. And this is because of our human psychopathology, which is then reflected out into the society we've elaborated. This means we are acting against life, against our natural good, beautiful and true essence. And this causes a deep angst in the human soul. We explore the essence of this theme in all our programs, of course, and I would like to let you know of a couple of other events we'll be conducting soon to explore it more. We're holding an International Psycho-Somatic Conference from Mar. 20 - 23, 2008 here in Brazil to explore the latest in Trilogical psycho-energetic medicine. Very provocative this area, and revolutionary. And our 19th International Congress of Analytical Trilogy entitled Psycho-Socio Therapy: A New Science for a New World will be conducted from July 4 - 6, 2008, also here in Brazil. A number of psycho-socio therapists will analyze areas like economics, health, education, media, ecology, science, arts and show how they've all gone wrong and how to fix them. Ambitious, to be sure, but not over-stated. Keppe's science is truly remarkable. And unique in its ability to explain the complex interactions between human beings and nature. Email me at rich@richjonesvoice.com if you'd like more information on either or both of those events.

Although universally doncemned, subtle forms of it still crop up in all modern societies. Skin color, sex, what you put on your head or to cover your face are still fair game for prejudice. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, the roots of racism. First, thanks for all your notes to me about the program.

The bigger community we create together, the more Norberto Keppe's profound but insufficiently recognized work will get out to more people. And this can only be a good thing. Well, we can look back at images from recent history - a short 50 years ago - and be staggered at the pictures of black people sitting at the back of the bus. Duke Ellington got so disgusted with not being able to stay at the hotel where he was playing, or even go in the front door, that he bought a Pullman railcar for his band to travel around in. "Now," he said, "We travel just like the President." Billie Holiday's harrowing song about lynching, Strange Fruit, which her generation witnessed in no small abundance, makes us shake our heads in shock and dry our eyes in sorrow to this day. Because slavery, lynchings, apartheid, ethnic cleansing - these are so obviously wrong - and have always been - to any person with even the most tenuous link to the true human essence. Surely there can be no debate about that anymore - except by someone so separated from human spirituality and love as to be certifiably insane. And yet, it continues. And not just in subtle forms, like being refused a job, as the horrible images and reports rising out of Rwanda and Bosnia attest. How can this be possible? Well, I'm reminded of St. Augustine, who confessed after deep soul searching that there was no difference in intention between the worst criminal and himself. He only managed to control it, where the other did not. What is it inside us in regards to racism that we don't understand well enough yet? This is the essence of Norberto Keppe's work, and the subject of our program today. My guest is American musician and researcher, Gilbert Gambucci. Click here to listen to this episode.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, a critique of America. And maybe I can cut off the groans or even outright indignation of those who repel from more "America Bashing" by stating our intent right off the bat: to help. Like my guest today, I, too, have a great admiration for the principles of America laid down by their Founding Fathers, who were influenced directly by the ideals of French Illuminish. But it's important to say that these ideals are actually not American. They're universal. That's what made Martin Luther King so powerful as an orator - he was speaking a universal truth - one that's always been true, is true today, and always will be true. But I think what makes America special is that they came closest to realizing it. I'm not blind to the incompleteness of their putting into practice their own Constitution - particularly in their treatment of African Americans - but that was still some potent society they created, back aways. Well today, it's nothing like what it was. Those transcendent words in that glorious document are now dusted off and used cynically by aggressive, arrogant, paranoid politicians to inspire Americans to all sorts of nefarious ends. Not quite what the Founding Fathers had in mind. But our purpose today is to try to analyze what's gone wrong in America through our psychological eyes. To try to help Americans understand where things have gone off the rails - for gone off the rails they certainly have.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Where in the World is all the Free Energy? Our topic today is a broad one. It encompasses the inversion in science that causes us to look at matter as the source of energy an dso miss out on some more advanced technologies that were started, ironically, over 100 years ago. We'll also touch into the psychological sickness behind how that intriguing technology gets completely suffocated and blatantly denied us. (And a little hint here - the reasons go much deeper than just the maniacal hunt for profit that we normally point to as the culprit in this clear crime against humanity.) This is a feature of psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe's, work actually. He has been able to develop a psychological science that provides a clear map of what's going on in the human psyche - for the first time in history - and which can also be applied to the structures and processes of society. After all, society is developed out of the belief structures and world views of the human beings that compose it, and so suffers from the same distortions and inversions that we do. (I think this applicability of psychological understanding to all of humankind's structures is unprecedented in history, and therefore of great value to we who are struggling to understand the world.

Can there be any new dimensions to consider regarding drugs? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Altered States of Consciousness: the Truth Behind Illegal Drugs. First, thanks for all your emails and requests for Norberto Keppe's book on the pathology of power, something we'll be considering again a bit in today's program, since the world of drugs walks hand in hand with those who stroll the corridors of power. So I'll continue giving away Keppe's book this week because it directly analyzes through a keen psychological lens the sickness that exists in the human psyche ... and which is exacerbated in those who lust for power. Great reading. Just email me for your free copy of this landmark book, rich@richjonesvoice.com Back in the mid 1980s, Claudia Pacheco was researching deeply into the connection between drug trafficking and power. She wasn't the only one writing about this, of course, but she was the first and only one to apply Keppe's psychological analysis to the area, and this lent her research an intellectual heft missing from other writers on the subject. And because of this, her research had a bomb-like effect on the powerful. Actually, all of Keppe's work did. He and Claudia were finally arrested at the peak of their activities in the U.S. for trumped up customs charges (a fact Claudia mentions in this Podcast) right after the extraordinary campaign they'd been mounting for some years to try to make American conscious of the decadence their country was entering because of the very maliciously intentioned policy of Reagonomics. Reagan's policy was, incidentally, a disaster for the U.S. and the rest of the world who followed blindly along. And Keppe and Pacheco's research into the pathology of power led them directly to confront worldwide governmental involvement in many illegal activities - something Pacheco was writing about at the time. Interestingly, shortly after this period, Iran Contra broke out. This is pretty incendiary stuff. And today, Claudia Pacheco joins us to look at this situation more closely and bring us up to date.

You can predict it ... somewhere between kid-dom and adolescence, your child stops asking inquisitive questions and starts acting like everything you care about and they used to care about is now completely useless. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, The Tyranny of Cool. How can we understand - and help - our teenagers? Listen, I know I'm dangerously close to sounding like every other person from the older generation here, lamenting the lost younger generation. But at the risk of sounding like every parent you've ever heard, I'm going to go out on a limb and propose that really, today, something is different with our teenagers. I'm open to the consideration that maybe it's just a matter of degree, but I think something is dreadfully wrong in the soul of our young people. Of course, we can't separate that from the corruption in values we've witnessed in society, and that process has been aided and abetted by, among others, my generation, so I don't mean to separate myself from the problem and suggest, "Hey, we were wonderful, what the hell happened to you guys?" I have rather sobering memories of Mrs. Kent coming up to me in the halls after English Lit. class when I was surrounded by my basketball-loving friends and asking me embarrassingly, "Richard, wasn't Milton´s Paradise Lost wonderful today?" My response was not particularly full of gratitude and enthusiastic agreement. So, it's always been somewhat this way. But I still maintain that the adolescents are in worse shape today. Let's analyze this a little. Selma Genzani is one of the lead analysts at Norberto Keppe´s Integral Psychoanalysis clinic here in Brazil.

Maybe we've read lots about them. Certainly we've discussed them, agonized over them, rued the day we ever got involved in them and celebrated them when they're going well. But how much do we really know about the inner workings of ... our relationships. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Dr. Claudia Pacheco and I will turn a magnifying glass on love and relationships. A popular subject on our Podcast. First, don't forget our free book giveaway. Norberto Keppe, whose scientific philosophy underlies everything we do on this Podcast, has written a number of books that, if understood, would dramatically alter how we see ourselves and the world we live in. Keppe wrote a book about the pathology of power back in the 1980s that is still today the best, most precise and definitive critique of our so-called democracy and inverted economic system you'll ever read. It's one of the wisest and most pointed books about the sickness in our political and economic leaders and how this sickness is leading us to disaster. A must read. And it's free just by e-mailing me at rich@richjonesvoice.com A number of months ago, I produced a couple of Podcasts with Dr. Claudia Pacheco on love and relationships. A listener recently listened to those, and wrote me a nice e-mail asking me if Claudia could answer some specific questions for her about the subject. Claudia agreed, and so ... here we are.

When we think with theseRichard Lloyd JonesIts tantalizing memory of a lost golden age of uninterrupted peace and happiness infuses the oral and written traditions of all peoples on Earth. Poets, mystics and monks have labored to keep the spark alive inside the human soul. When we think with these heads, the idea that we're evolving becomes patently ridiculous. In fact, we were born into, but rejected, paradise. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll look at an intriguing concept that's been much considered in human historical thought, but completely ridiculed and discounted in our strictly materialistic modern view: the idea that we've fallen from a paradisal state. In this view, we're not evolving from the cosmic mud but spinning away from beauty and perfection. You know, most of us have no idea about how the thoughts of historical figures affect our way of seeing the world today. Most of us are under the impression that our thought has evolved rather naturally and that our philosophies of life and perceptions of the world are more or less arrived at through experience and natural development. This is very naive. Thought has always been influenced. For example, back in the 4th and 5th centuries, St. Augustine was enormously influential. He followed Plato's philosophy of the world of universal ideas and infused knowledge. Human beings were born with something for Augustine - not empty vessels who are filled by experience and interaction with society. In the 13th century, Thomas Aquinas began to lead the thinking away from Plato's universalism by reintroducing Aristotle's orientation: we are products of our experience, of our senses. The impact of this change in thinking was immense. Science began to orient itself more to materialistic evidence than to theological, universal concepts. We experienced a continuing erosion of the influence of theological and even philosophical wisdom in our worldview. To the point where we can say quite unequivocally that we have no philosophers anymore. Now we favor only what we can see or measure. In this modern world, all is relative. The universal questions - good and evil, from where do we come, what is the purpose of life - are seldom considered. Today, you go to university to get trained for a job - not to think about how to develop the human spirit. Well, all of this is the reason I named this Podcast, Thinking with Somebody Else's Head. Because I wanted to explore the way we saw the world and how this always came from other people's heads. And if those heads made fundamental mistakes, then structuring a world view based on their ideas would be fraught with inconsistencies at best, and downright lunacy at worst. Norberto Keppe's work gives us a road map to follow based on solid principles of goodness, truth and beauty. Universal reality. Today, Dr. Claudia Pacheco joins me to look at an idea that's existed as long as human beings have existed: that we are golden creatures that once inhabited a golden age, but fell from it.

There is a wealthRichard Lloyd JonesI remember my college roommate couldn't sleep for a week after watching The Exorcist. We all have friends who messed around with ouija boards, don't we? My neighbour used to receive visits from recently departed loved ones in her dreams. There is a wealth of theological knowledge on the presence and influence of spirits in our day-to-day lives. But sadly, it's been eliminated. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll begin to open the doors again to the universe of the spirits. This preceless knowledge has been totally excluded from our modern, so-called rational world. Norberto Keppe, in exploring the deep psychopathology of human beings, saw very early on in his work that human difficulties were much more spiritual than organic, much more related to the questions of who we are, where we came from, and where we were going than they were to the out-of-whack chemicals in our brains. But Keppe went a step further even by seeing that the finality of our envy and inversion would be our enormous rejection of reality and God. So he has always kept an ear tuned to the importance of theology in considering the human psyche. His recent book, The Universe of the Spirits, is currently being translated into English, and is a must read for a world totally cut off from this spiritual wisdom and desperately in need of connecting to it again. I've invited my good friend, Cesar Soos, in again to consider this topic with me. Cesar has been researching the metaphysical and spiritual world for many years now, and has a fantastic perspective on Keppe's wonderful book. Click here to listen to this episode.

There've been many additions since - some of it useful, like Jung's association of ideas, some of it next to useless, like Skinner's insistence that we can be programmed like pigeons. Now through the work of Norberto Keppe, there's a lot of light illuminating the murky corners of the human mind. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we're going to correct psychology. Recently, I had a Podcast listener asking me about doing Trilogical analysis by phone. He said he'd been looking around in his home town for something to help him analyze some long-standing issues in his life, but "just never found one that was so in tune with what you're saying in your Podcast." That's not an uncommon response to Keppe's work. When I first came to Brazil, I was struck by the depth and optimism of Analytical Trilogy. Different from most psychological schools of thought that try to have you understand your problems by looking at the impact of significant events in your past, or exploring the elaborate coping strategies that you erect to get what is missing in your life, Analytical Trilogy cuts to the core problem: how we reject or deny or even destroy our essential nature, throwing the blame on these other things. There is a strong philosophical base to Trilogy that allows a Trilogical analyst - and there are a number of them down here in Brazil - to reach the core of the problem. The first thing to say about all this is that all sickness, all neurosis, all anxiety, is evidence of something we are doing against life. It could be an attitude, a lifestyle, a way of seeing the world. But something is out of whack in our approach to life. This is more profound than it may appear at first glance, because it supposes that reality is healthy, good, beautiful ... by itself. And it is this dialectic between reality and our rejection or denial of it that is at the basis of Keppean analysis. I've asked Alex Frascari to join me again to explore this fascinating topic. And I'll start with a quote from Keppe's book, From Freud to Frankl: Integral Psychoanalysis: "Up to now, all processes of psychotherapy have not been psychological. Psychoanalysis itself, whether orthodox or not, is more than anything else a biological, organic treatment, not to mention other techniques such as Rogerian and Transactional Analysis, psychodrama and behaviorism, which are sociotherapeutic." Let's see how Keppe addresses this. Click here to listen to this program.

They're our mothers and sisters, bosses and colleagues. And maybe soon, presidents. They've caused wars, and yet are the biggest champions of peace. And talking about their pathology can get you in some trouble! Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll explore the strengths of the weaker sex. Of course, calling them that reveals our inversion in considering only the external, considering strength only in the size and amount of muscles. More in a minute. Just wanted to remind you of our International Congress of Analytical Trilogy coming up next March, 2008, here in Brazil. A perfect opportunity for you to learn more about the work of Norberto Keppe and how Analytical Trilogy can be applied to all areas of human endeavor. Through our Trilogical lens, we'll be investigating the areas of health and psychosomatics, education, media, psychotherapy, economics, arts, science and metaphysics, ufology, ecology, philosophy, sociopathology, spirituality. It will be a state of the union, so to speak, on where we are in humanity at understanding how the human being works. This goes deep to the root of all our problems, so any of you involved in social activism of any kind, you'll want to join us to get a handle on the key reasons why we've come so unstuck in so many areas all at the same time. And that's because we're seeing the impact now of the centuries of inverted human values. Make a note and start planning for the Easter week, Mar. 20 - 23, 2008. Write me if you're interested, rich@richjonesvoice.com Our topic today is a hot one. But beautiful in how we can analyze it through Analytical Trilogy. Trilogy, by the way, stands for the union of philosophy, theology and science, or thought, feeling and action in the human being. And it's necessary to consider all three if we're to have a complete view of anything. Modern science has cut away the two pillars of philosophy and theology, and so wobbles incompletely on its own trying to make sense of the world and its phenomena, and failing. Without the upward view into the abstraction and consideration of being and spirituality, science condemns itself to a strictly material view, and its incomplete and inadequate conclusions suffer as a result. Back in the 1990s, Dr. Claudia Pacheco wrote a courageous book called Women on the Couch: An Analysis of Women's Psychopathology. Some women were not happy. But I found it illuminating in highlighting the problems in relationships and lives of both men and women. And Dr. Pacheco has been developing her views since.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll look at the human will, this essential aspect of what we think it means to be human. Those who've been listening regularly to Thinking with Somebody Else's Head will know that I base my Podcasts on the work of psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe. I've been living and studying with Keppe and Dr. Claudia Pacheco and many others here at Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy in São Paulo, Brazil for just over 6 years now. I first came because of my excitement about Keppe's application of his psychoanalytical discoveries to an analysis of society, and particularly the pathology of power - much of which is contained in Keppe's seminal book on the subject, Liberation of the People. I'm giving away copies of that book, just write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com I came because of this, but I stayed because of the significance of Keppe's work in understanding the human psyche and its motivations - particularly Inversion. Since so much of our lives unfolds out of our desires that we've hidden from our view - that we've "inconscientized" in Keppe's language - I wanted to understand those motivations and drives better. Where that other giant of human psychopathology, Freud, saw the human neurosis as the battle between our indecent desires - mostly sexual - and the mores of society, Keppe sees the anguish as a fight between our essential nature and our inverted desires. This shines the spotlight squarely on the human will, wich is not unblemished and pure. In fact, it's not the benign, infallible human capacity we've thought it to be. Let's understand this better. Joining me today is engineer, Alexander Frascari, who has just returned from delivering a fascinating lecture on Keppe's New Physics to a very interested group of bio-physicists in Germany.

Others see the lack of ethics in leadership as most pressing. While for many, our environmental crises supercede everything else. Here in Brazil, we acknowledge it all as evidence of our inversion. And then ... we go a little deeper. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll look at our relationship with the deepest part of ourselves and our connection with eternity, even God. First of all, thanks for all your wonderful e-mails over the past few weeks. Great to hear from you as always. rich@richjonesvoice.com We're doing a lot of things here that could be of interest to you. Our online course, Trilogy Online, is almost up and running. Keep listening for updates, or drop me a line and I'll let you know personally when it's officially online. We're going to be holding a great event next year - 2008 - on the True American Dream. What were those Founding Fathers dreaming about anyway? And was it just a dream? I don't think so. Norberto Keppe, the inspiration for all we do on this Podcast, has fond feelings for the true American values to this day. We're going to marry the American dream to the dreams of South America, too - kind of a Pan-American dream maybe - and talk about how all of these greatest dreams of humanity are possible. And there are substantial means to get there present in Keppe's work. Particularly in understanding the root causes of our massive difficulties - our topic today in a way - and providing some specific tools to get there, like new business and residence structures. That'll all be occurring next July 4, 5, and 6, 2008. Make a note. You know, Keppe's work is different from others in this fundamental way: where many psychological, scientific, even philosophical orientations tell us that we're in a process of evolving from lesser to greater - from the primal ooze in biology, through many lifetimes in Eastern thought, from the need to develop our self-esteem in Western pop-psychology - Keppe proposes that we already live in perfection, in eternity, in paradise. But we reject it. This is a profound shift in how we understand reality, and I've asked Claudia Pacheco, vice-president of Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy, to help me penetrate this idea. Join me for her illuminating and provocative thoughts. Click here to listen to this episode.

Don't have the house of your dreams? Despair no more. Your dream home is only a decision away. It's sweeping the world in an Internet generation version of Tulip Mania, but it's far from the answer it promises. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll dissect the Secret. And that is very necessary. The book is all over Brazil, not to mention countless other parts of the world, and is being talked about in numerous blogs and TV and radio shows. Let me get into that in a moment, but first I wanted to bring you up to date on a few things. First, I've extended my book giveaway on the program. I've been giving away copies of Norberto Keppe's seminal book on the pathology of power for a few months now, and every week I receive a few new orders from numerous parts of the world. You can add your name to the strengthening energetic pulse of people becoming acquainted with Keppe's original and outstanding work just by sending me an e-mail at rich@richjonesvoice.com Secondly, a big thanks to Thinking with Somebody Else's Head listeners Lynne MacDonnell and Jason Coombs for their help in my recent trip to Canada with my wife, Mônica. They organized a small lecture in Toronto for me and it was a great pleasure to meet with folks and let them know more about the International Society of Analytical Trilogy and our work here in Brazil. I'll be working on some presentation ideas over the next few months, and I'd love to hear from your if you're interested in more opportunities to learn about Keppe's work. Just drop me a line at rich@richjonesvoice.com I'd also like you to make a note of July 4, 5 and 6, 2008. We'll be conducting a marvelous Congress at our Grande Hotel Trilogia here in Brazil about the true American dream. We'll be looking at our lost values and how to get them back, and how Analytical Trilogy can offer us some real solutions to getting our society back on track. Let me know if you're interested. OK, the Secret. The idea is not new. Back in 1910, Wallace D. Wattles penned The Science of Getting Rich, and countless writers from Napoleon Hill to Norman Vincent Peale, to powerful industiralists like Henry Ford have espoused strikingly similar philosophies. It's rooted in American individualism and the drive for personal wealth. But as we'll see today, this is leading us seriously down the wrong path. When my friend, Susan Berkley, was here recently, I had her sit down with our resident science researcher, Cesar Soos, and asked them to take the Secret apart a little. Here's what they came up with.

A jazz singer is terrorized by her pending success. It can be crippling and terrifying. And it´s the third largest mental health care problem in the world. What is going on behind our fears and anxieties? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else´s Head, we´ll take another look at this important social health concern. First, an announcement, especially for my Canadian listeners to this Podcast. I´ll be in Canada over the next couple of weeks visiting family and friends. If you´re in the Victoria/Vancouver area drop me an e-mail. I´d love to get together with any who are interested in talking about Norberto Keppe´s work. rich@richjonesvoice.com If you´re in the Greater Toronto area, I´ll be giving a lecture for any who want to know more about Keppe´s important discoveries and how they can help you in all aspects of your life. Loyal listeners to Thinking with Somebody Else´s Head, Lynne MacDonnell and Jason Coombs have very generously offered their meeting room space. My presentation there will be on Tuesday night, July 31, at 7:00 pm. Lynne is psychotherapist and hypnotherapist in Toronto, and her address is 2489 Bloor St. W., suite 306. Write me if you need more information. A few weeks ago, I interviewed psychoanalyst, Leo Lima, about fears, panic and phobias. I had a number of responses to that program that prompted me to address the subject again. Lori wrote me from New York City about her claustrophobia and wondered how to get copies of Claudia Pacheco´s book, Healing Through Consciousness, which we mentioned in that program. This is a seminal book about psycho-somatic illness, I can get copies of it for you if you let me know you´re interested. rich@richjonesvoice.com I´ve invited Markku Lyyra to join me today. Markku´s a Finnish psychoanalyst at Keppe´s International Society of Analytical Trilogy, and he has wide-ranging clinical experience treating clients from Europe and Latin America. He has many practical clinical examples this time to help us get to the bottom of these debilitating problems. Markku gives many lectures on this issue. Let´s explore this important issue more deeply today. Click here to listen to this episode.

Adults are worried about it, too. And companies make big profits on our neuroses. We've become a culture obsessed with it to a degree unprecedented in history. But solutions to it remain elusive. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll look at why, with all our focus on weight in today's culture, many of us are getting fatter and fatter while millions of others are wasting away to nothing. What in the world is going on with our weight? There are so many factors at play here, aren't there? A skinny-as-a-rail 13-year-old looks in the mirror and sees a whale. The advertising agencies air-brush models to within an inch of their lives and dramatically alter how we see beauty. Plastic surgeons give whoever has the moeny to pay whatever body they want. Doctors and drug companies push their solutions in packages of pills that make them richer and the rest of us sicker. Research shows that 42% of first to third grade girls want to be thinner. And 81% of 10-year-olds are afraid of being fat. Our neurosis is being manipulated to make money. And not just that - our food industry has been seriously corrupted by a totally skewed profit motive that makes us realize that our corporations and political systems are exhibiting strong psychopathic tendencies. The work of Norberto Keppe can help us to understand what's going on here, and shows us how to develop new business and residence structures designed to take the power out of the hands of the banks and corporations, and put the resources, money and power into our hands. These ground-breaking structures and ideas are outlined in Keppe's revolutionary book, Liberation of the People: The Pathology of Power. This book highlights his great idealism, but also his astute social critique, and his solutions. It's great stuff. Write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com if you'd like a copy of this book. We'll look at our topic today - the Fattening and Thinning of America - in a very expansive way.

TRichard Lloyd JonesIn 1992, at an old chateau a few kilometres outside Paris, a small group gathered to form yet another organization trying to stop our destruction of the world. There was only one difference: this group wanted to highlight the root cause of the problems. That Association is still going strong, and its core purpose has never been more necessary. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, I'd like to introduce you to the STOP the Destruction of the World Association - a non-profit agency closely linked to Norberto Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy. I haven't mentioned it for a couple of weeks, but I still have copies of Norberto Keppe's seminal book on the pathology of power - Liberation of the People - available for free. I've given away quite a few of these provocative books already, and it's wonderful to see Keppe's very important work getting out to more people. Keppe publishes these books himself since no publisher will touch him with a barge-pole - more shame to them - which gives you an idea how important his work must be. When he lived in New York City in the '80s, a friend of mine who worked for one of the big networks at the time said a memo circulated around the radio and TV stations saying that no one was to give any air time to Keppe's books or activities - which were substantial - and that no effort should be expended in covering anything to do with his work. You see, Keppe challenges the power structures at their roots. He doesn't just offer social critique, but unmasks the pathology behind all human actions - especially the pathology driving those in power. Just write me for your copy of this landmark book, rich@richjonesvoice.com Claudia Pacheco has worked closely with Keppe for over 25 years. She is the vice-president of his International Society of Analytical Trilogy, a much in demand psychoanalyst, and the president of the STOP the Destruction of the World Association. I sat down with her recently to talk about the problems in society and how her association could possibly help a world seemingly hell-bent on destruction. Click here to listen to this episode.

Herman Hesse suggested that in disliking another, we dislike something in him that we have, too. This is an aspect of human psychological life that's still kind of murky. We're going to clarify it significantly today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head. We're going to continue the discussion we began in our last Podcast about the interior life of the human being. What's going on inside us when we react to external stimula? I get very excited about this subject because I see how extremely helpful it is to people in giving them the understanding they need to comprehend and deal with their jobs, relationships - even their health. Before Claudia Pacheco and I continue our conversation about Norberto Keppe's psycho-therapeutic process called Interiorization, let me let you know that I'm working to make Pacheco's book, Revealing the Power of Consciousness: The Handbook to Analytical Trilogy, available as a downloadable pdf book. This is a really great primer about Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy or Integral Psychoanalysis that will help you to understand his profound work a little more clearly. Let me know if you'd be interested in having this book downloadable. rich@richjonesvoice.com Now, Interiorization. The word doesn't even exist in English. But it does denote a remarkable psychological understanding. Briefly stated, this is the process of returning to, and comprehending, our vast inner universe. And by the way, if you like what you hear in Claudia Pacheco's analysis of a number of common problems facing all of us today, psychoanalysis at Norberto Keppe's clinic is available by telephone. Integral Psychoanalysis works extremely well in this way. In fact, there are many European and North American clients who take advantage of this every week. Let's find out more about Interiorization.

Too much stress, too much work, it's my genes or my upbringing. We're not so inclined to take a good look inside us for answers. This is a big mistake, which I'd like to take some steps towards correcting today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head. Today, we'll go more deeply into one of the key distinguishing characteristics of Norberto Keppe's Integral Psychoanalysis ... interiorization. This is the process of seeing the relationship between our reactions to outside stimula and the correspoinding aspect inside us that's being triggered. This is remarkable stuff. And, if accepted, this process can calm us immensely and help us solve longstanding physical, emotional or even societal issues. Before we get into it, let me personally invite you to mark down these dates on your calendar. March 16 - 23, 2008. The dates are for our 19th International Congress on Analytical Trilogy here in Brazil. A chance for you to participate and learn more about Keppe's discoveries in psychology, psycho-somatic health, education, scientific methodology and perspectives, arts, media, economics. And actual steps you can take to change all of these areas for the better. Specifically, we'll look at how human Inversion, Envy and Theomania are leading us to create an increasingly sick and destructive society. I'll hopefully have a website up about it in the next week or so, but for now, plan to attend if you have any interest at all in exploring more Keppe's work and it's implications. In the meantime, write me if you'd like more information. Today, Dr. Claudia Pacheco joins me again to begin our exploration of this expansive topic. In his book, From Sigmund Freud to Viktor Frankl: Integral Psychoanalysis, Keppe's thesis outlining his psychoanalytical view, he says, "Up to the present moment, all processes of psychotherapy have not been psychological. Psychoanalysis itself, whether orthodox or not, is rather than anything else, a biological, organic treatment." This I think is a good place to start our discussions.

Is yours just a point on a perfect bell curve determined by standardized testing? Or is there much more - and new - yet to be said about it? I vote for the latter. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, let's take a Trilogical look at intelligence. And I say Trilogical because of our focus in this Podcast on Norberto Keppe's Analytical Trilogy, which forms the basis of everything we do on this program. Keppe's discoveries in psychopathology have given us a precise roadmap of the human psyche for the first time in our history. And this is no small feat. With Keppe's outlining of Inversion, Theomania and Envy, we can understand the things we couldn't before. For example, we can see human envy in action in our collective refusal to provcide basic health care or food for our fellow citizens. Understanding the process of projection is very useful, because through this we can see that we fear the terrorists outside while we conduct economic and even military terrorism on a grand scale ourselves. We see the human desire to be like gods, what Keppe calls Theomania, in our very ill-advised explorations into genetic modification, which have unknown ramifications. And then we could mention the inversion and maliciousness involved in pushing alienating and debilitating drugs on children and adults in record amounts. We're killing and harming people all the time with this strictly materialistic approach to everything when the psychological roots of our problems are well understood now. That understanding comes from Keppe's work, and this is something that's not well understood yet because it's been kept from us. This Podcast is one attempt to address that. We're giving away copies of some of Keppe's books, and I've started a Video Podcast now featuring clips from his shows. It's called STOP the Destruction of the World, and it's also available in iTunes. And we're going to be holding an International Congress from March 16 - 23, 2008 here in Brazil to explore the impolications of Keppe's work in all areas of human endeavor. As always, you can write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com for any more information about any of those things. Today on our program, I'll talk again with Swedish journalist, Helena Mellander, about Keppe's view of intelligence and the universals. Click here to listen to this program.

Of fear itself. In the middle of it, you feel like you'll never climb out. In those moments, it's exactly as Goethe so eloquently put it ... "even in the greatest of evils the fear of the worst continues to haunt us." Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll penetrate the mysterious world of fear, panic and phobias. If you're a sufferer, or know someone who is, you'll find some real clarity today. These conditions are not as murky or impenetrable as you might think. By the way, my book offer is still open. Free copies of Norberto Keppe's Liberation of the People: The Pathology of Power are available. You might think this has no connection to today's topic, but Keppe's books are therapeutic in the deepest sense of that word. His studies into psychopathology are unmatched in the history of psychological, philosophical and even theological thought, and I know any introduction to his work will open your eyes to a deeper understanding of all aspects of the human condition. Just write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com if you'd like a copy. Like most of us, I've had friends who've suffered from the debilitating effects of fear and panic. From the outside, it can seem so ridiculous. How can you be afraid of that, we say in disbelief. But to the sufferer it's all too real. I had a friend years ago who couldn't walk out on the roof of the old office building we worked in together because he had a fear he'd jump off. When I came to Brazil 6 years ago, and I began to study Keppe's work, I began to understand many neurotic conditions like this one. I began to see that all of our outside difficulties have personal, psychological connections inside us. Our reaction to outside events is more a question of the outside thing mirroring something to us about what's going on inside us. That's what we'll look at today. Oh and by the way, I think my friend's fear of jumping was consciousness to him of how self-destructive he was in his life, but didn't want to see. On the roof, he had consciousness of this, but thought this feeling was unique to being on the roof. Let's, if you'll pardon the pun, dive in and see if we can de-mystify this area.

Viruses are poised to attck us if we're unlucky enough to choose the wrong sexual partner. There are dangerous hormones in the meat. Chemically ripened bananas. And don't even mention the perils lurking in a microwaved potato! What's to ge done? Well, as always, it appears our solution lies between our ears. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll look at our minds and our immune systems. First, an exciting announcement. We're going to be convening an international congress on Norberto Keppe's science - Analytical Trilogy - in March of 2008. Start planning now if you're interested in attending. We'll be analyzing all areas of human activity - from medicine to art to science to sociopathology to economics and more - through Keppe's discoveries. It will be fascinating and revolutionary. And very positive in terms of giving you some real perspectives on the root causes of what's going so wrong in our society and how we can fix it. Write me if you'd like any more information on this: rich@richjonesvoice.com Cesar Sóos is working very closesly with Dr. Claudia Pacheco and Dr. Roberto Giraldo in our very exciting Integral Psychosomatic clinic here in São Paulo. You've heard from him many times on this Podcast. Dr. Keppe said recently on his TV program that illness appears because the person's immune system loses force because of something internal, and when this happens, anything causes imbalance. That's the starting place for our very provocative discussion today. Click here to listen to this episode.

We've got global warming, and terror alerts. Disappearing bees and school shootings. The drug companies push medication on us relentlessly through a medical system that's been corrupted by money and brainwashing. How do we cope with all this stress? Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, I'd like to look at a psychological condition that, if we understand it better, can truly change how we approach everything - from science and politics, to human relationships and even society's laws. This is the process of psychological Inversion that Norberto Keppe discovered in his clinical research over the past fifty years. Simply put, Inversion is the process whereby we see everything upside down. For instance, we see money as more important than work - so a corporation can lay off 20,000 employees and see its stock price jump in value. We think disease comes from bacteria and viruses, rather than that it primarily comes from a loss in inner force because of our psychological states of mind. We think it's a jungle out there and live our lives accordingly. This is a large topic becasue our Inversion of values and priorities is everywhere. We've talked about it in many ways already on this Podcast - related to money and power, and even quantum physics and reality, which are quite different when seen through non-inverted eyes. Today, I want to focus our sights on stress. Have a listen and let me know what you think: rich@richjonesvoice.com Sofie Bergqvist is a Swedish teacher and international lecturer and seminar leader who's been studying and working at Norberto Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy for over ten years.

By 2020, it's estimated it will be the second largest killer after heart disease. Ominously, pre-schoolers are the fastest-growing market for medication to treat it. Cases are rising fast ... and we're pretty much baffled about how to treat it. Until now. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, in the aftermath of Virginia Tech, let's take another look at depression. First, I'd like to let you know that I still have copies of Dr. Norberto Keppe's book, Liberation of the People: The Pathology of Power, to give away. If you've been listening regularly to this Podcast, you'll know that it is totally based on this Austrian-Brazilian psychoanalyst's extraordinary work. If you're tuning in for the first time, you're in for a real treat. Keppe has developed a perspective of the human psyche and the society that's been created from it, that can allow us to understand what's gone so wrong in all areas of human function - from education to health to science to politics. It's a phenomenal and essential body of work for us to study and implement. And his book, Liberation of the People, is an excellent start in understanding his expansive vision. E-mail me at rich@richjonesvoice.com if you'd like a copy, and I'll make sure you get one. Now, depression. Anyone who's suffered its debilitating effects knows how paralyzing it can be. It makes everything more difficult: work, relationships, creativity. At its worst, it can make even getting up in the morning or going to the corner store to buy some milk seemingly impossible tasks. Let's understand it better. Dr. Claudia Pacheco wrote an extraordinary book in the early 1980s that was a pioneering book exploring the link between our psyches and our health. She's a frequent contributor to Thinking with Somebody Else's Head because she's been working closely at Keppe's side for well over twenty years.

The Japanese have three synonyms associated with it - painful, dirty and dangerous. Almost always, we hear it used like this: "Hey, I'd love to join you for that fun thing, but unfortunately ... I have to work." Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we're going to look deeply at human work. What it is, what it could be, and especially what it is in fact becoming through the practical experience of a number of us here in Brazil who are working with a new type of business organization and structure. I'm very excited about this program because I feel that this is one aspect of human social life that we need to improve. And fast! And as we'll stress in this Podcast, this new way of structuring work and companies is here. A number of us here are having tremendous success in developing Trilogical Enterprises based on Dr. Norberto Keppe's ideas and practical experience. He has outlined these ideas in a very influential book called Liberation of the People. I sat down with Dr. Claudia Pacheco the other day to talk about business and society and the enormously important field of human work. As always, I found myself intrigued, enchanted and even, dare I say it, excited about Keppe's Trilogical perspective on work, as articulated so well by Dr. Pacheco in this Podcast.

It jolts all of us out of our normal lives and rams us face-to-face with a reality we seldom have to face. Thank God. We're swamped with opinions from every possible angle. But precious little understanding. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, Making Sense of Virginia Tech. Benjamin Franklin said that the tragedy of life is that we get old too soon and wise too late. There are thirty-two people from Virginia Tech who will not have the luxury now of becoming either older, or wiser. That opportunity was snatched away on April 16, 2007 by an obviously demented and troubled young man. In Unforgiven, his bleak but wonderful film about morality and murder, Clint Eastwood says, "It's a terrible thing to kill a man. You take away all he is, and all he's ever going to be." We're reminded of that now. How do we make sense of this? For make sense we must, because this horror that many in the U.S. are living through is a daily fact of life for millions around our troubled globe. And if we want to contribute to stopping this - and I believe we must contribute in some way to stopping this enormous humanly-caused death and destruction - we must begin to try to face the causes of it. St. Augustine was courageous, I think, when he said that he had the same tendencies inside him of the worst criminals. I mention that not to suggest that we are the same as the Virginia Tech killer, but that we must begin to see our part in the greater panorama of human destruction on our planet. After all, people are suffering in Afghanistan and Baghdad and Somalia and Rwanda, as well as in Virginia. Furthermore, Virginia is an anomaly. Those others are ongoing. I believe that it is this consciousness of our human destruction that we have an opportunity to become more conscious of now so that we can take big steps - not only to healing - but to resolving the problems in the human soul that cause us to create such a punishing society. Today, I'll have a profound conversation with Dr. Claudia Pacheco, vice-president of the International Society of Analytical Trilogy in São Paulo, Brazil, about how we can understand Virginia Tech.

Picasso was very far from it when he expounded that everything you can imagine is real. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, a meditation on the nature of reality. A few weeks ago, I sat down with my friend, Cesar Soos, a frequent contributor to this program, and we began a discussion about a subject I've pondered a lot since encountering Dr. Keppe's work a few years ago. Keppe's first important discover was what he has called psychological Inversion, a process whereby human beings and humanity as a whole invert values and perceptions, seeing what's good as bad or dangerous or weak, and what's bad as advantageous in some way. As Dr. Pacheco said in our Podcast about the Pathology of Power, isn't it true that we see humbleness as weak, and arrogant and prestigious people as strong? Don't we have a common belief that we achieve development and peace through war? These are examples of an inverted view of life that all of us have to a greater or lesser degree. When I first began to study this psychological phenomenon, I asked myself this: if we are inverted, which it appears we are, what are we inverted from? It stood to reason, I thought, that we must be inverted from something. That began my fascination with the nature of reality. What can we say definitively about reality? Keeping in mind what T. S. Eliot offered on the subject - "Humankind cannot bear much reality" - Cesar and I sat down to see if we could get reality in our sights and pin it down somewhat. Click here to download this program.

They influence the laws ... and the lawmakers. While the rest of us are working and raising families and coaching Little League teams, they dedicate their lives to gaining direct control over the social institutions. Forget about sex, drugs and rock 'n roll. The real key to the so called kingdom on Earth ... is power. Today, we're going to jump right into the fire of one of the most important issues in our society: the pathology of power. When I moved from Vancouver to Toronto in 1995, Mike Harris' Conservative Party and their Common Sense Revolution had just been elected as Premier of the province in a huge majority. I was struck by how he used that majority to ram through often controversial legislation that sometimes was directly against what the citizens said they wanted. Not to bore you with details, but the amalgamation of the six cities of Greater Toronto into one huge megacity was pushed through over the overwhelming disagreement of the citizens of the cities involved, who had all conducted extensive referenda within their cities. I began to think about the pathology of power, although I didn't have a name for it then. So when I discovered Dr. Keppe's Liberation of the People: The Pathology of Power, I devoured it. Let's explore more about it with Dr. Claudia Pacheco, vice-president of Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy. Click here to listen to this episode.

Global warming is unequivocal, and it's "very likely" human beings are the cause. Al Gore's documentary hammers home the same point. The uncertainty is gone, the evidence is crystal clear for most: we have a serious problem looming directly in front of us. but in all the statistics and graphs and scientific pronouncements, one thing eludes us ... what on Earth do we do about it? An update first. We've been sending out copies of Dr. Keppe's "Liberation of the People" all over the place, to Europe and Asia and of course, North America, and I've decided to extend the offer, because I think Keppe's work in this book is vitally important in helping the greatest number of people possible to become conscious of the reasons why our human society is so messed up, so far from what it could be. A listener from Norway wrote recently that after listening to our New Economy Podcast, he couldn't help wondering what the world could look like. So write me at rich@richjonesvoice.com if you're interested in a free copy of Keppe's "Liberation of the People: The Pathology of Power." I've been watching An Inconvenient Truth recently, Al Gore's Academy Award-winning documentary, and I continue to be impressed with the way the scientific evidence has been presented in this most excellent piece of work. It's extremely well done. And scary. I wanted to add my voice to the discusssion, because I think one point has not been completely understood. Namely, the cause of human destruction.

Delve into the division between the mainstream theories, and Marxist thinking. It's a vast and, frankly, overwhelming area of study. And in the end, it appears there are almost as many economic theories as there are economists. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, we'll explore the new economics arising out of Dr. Norberto Keppe's beautiful work in Analytical Trilogy, his comprehensive work that unites philosophy, theology and science to give us a new perspective on the human being and his society. Someone, I'm not sure who, once said that if you lined up all the economists in the world, they'd all point in different directions. Maybe this was more prophetic than he or she intended. Truman pined for a one-armed economist that, as a result, could never say ... "on the other hand ..." Economics drives our world in obvious ways through its influence on every aspect of human society. From sweating the family budget to the sophisticated polling and research of lobbyists and think tank academics, there's no area of daily life that's not impacted by it. But arguably, there is no area where we have been influenced more by the thinking of other people's head than in this one. And some of the theories that have been thrust upon us from these heads have caused us a lot of personal and collective grief. It's time for a new perspective on economics. And that's happening at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy in São Paulo, Brazil.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, let get some perspective on music. Music and art have an enormous influence on us, obviously. From babies in mother's wombs to teenagers listening to favorite artists on tinny headphones in a desperate attempt to understant what's going on inside and around them, to composers scoring love scenes in award-winning films, music impacts us much more that most of us think about in our day-to-day lives.

Now iRichard Lloyd JonesImagine two people with the same disease, same treatment, same relative social class. But one gets well, and the other doesn't. A mystery? A coincidence? A situation with multiple explanations? It's a question for which science has no ready answers. Now it appears, we can finally explain it. We've been exploding some commonly-held assumptions on this show. And that makes for rather provocative stuff. None of us likes our belief systems challenged completely, especially when we feel the challenge impacting one of our bedrock philosophies of life. But the work of Dr. Norberto Keppe does exactly that. Like Socrates addressing universal values and challenging the thinking of the citizens of ancient Athens, Keppe's work causes us to examine what we know about ourselves. But Keppe also leads us to discover what we don't know about ourselves - and this is a much dimmer journey. Most of us don't know that we are dominated by what we don't know. In this consideratin, strongly held views are best not held to with all you've got. Better to remain open and explore what you don't know yet. Keppe's work has had a profound effect on many people, including Roberto Giraldo, a Colombian medical doctor and specialist in infectious and tropical diseases. Giraldo is the author of Aids and Stressors, and is currently working at the Weill Cornell Medical Center in New York. But he's beginning the move to Brazil to study more with Dr. Keppe and develop his understanding of the psychological roots of disease. In this podcast, we explore some of his thinking about the connection between the mind, body, society ... and disease. Click here to listen to this episode. Click here to learn more about Podcasts.

But seldom have we heard them applied to nations or even historical periods. Until now. Today, we'll dive into a fascinating study - the psychoanalysis of society. A couple of weeks ago, we started the process of investigating the social structures and our inverted society in our program about Money and Power. And we made copies of Dr. Keppe's book, Liberation of the People, available to people who wanted copies. That offer still stands, so if you'd like to read this incisive analysis of the pathology of power, just e-mail me at rich@richjonesvoice.com. Today's topic will probably whet your appetite for more of Keppe's extraordinary work in this area. Frankly, to my knowledge, there has been relatively little study of sociopathology as Keppe defines it. Normally, the term is applied to the behavior of sociopathic or psychopathic personalities. Keppe is concerned with social difficulties where the social systems reflect the psychological problems of the human beings who created them, thereby creating a psychologically unbalanced society. Prominent social critics have been trying to shine the light on abuses of power and injustice for decades, but none have Keppe's psychological and philosophical lineage, or his clinical experience. So you'll find much that stands alone in his work. To focus our topic today, because it's an expansive one, I've asked Dr. Claudia Pacheco, the vice president of Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy, to join us again.

There's a secret language between you to understand. There can be perfect love, but imperfect relationships some say. There's help in the stars, soulmate consulting. For anyone who's looking for definitive answers, it's all a little overwhelming. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else's Head, let's see if we can get a little clearer on relationships. As I've come to understand more completely the depth of the remarkable work of Brazilian psychoanalyst, Dr. Norberto Keppe, I've come to appreciated the crystal-clear comprehension he has of the human psyche. He is clarifying this like no one before him. And this gives us some real ground to stand upon in investigating any field of human endeavor. This is especially true in the area of relationships. Dr. Claudia Pacheco's observations about love have been explored already in this blog/podcast (see Some Thoughts About Love), and her mind is a very precise one to pick on this important topic. Her book, Women on the Couch: An Analysis of Women's Pathology, is a seminal one in the field. And her thoughts about women and men and love are always fascinating and always worthwhile.

My gosh, how we've struggled with this thing called self-confidence. We've meditated, we've diary-ed, we've seven stepped ourselves to death trying to grasp the damn thing. And it always hovers there, tantalizingly out of reach. Others we perceive as having it are constant reminders of our failure as they dangle the keys to the kingdom of riches and success and realized dreams just out of reach. But today, a chance to see how far away we've been from even understanding self-confidence. And big thanks to my dear friend, Susan Berkley, for providing the interview for this show.

As a verb, the word has about 40. Money - our topic today on Thinking With Somebody Else's Head - has 56. (I didn't even bother looking up "love of money"). But whatever you call it - bucks, green, or bread - money today is so revered there's really only one appropriate synonym ... the almighty dollar. Our topic today is an important one, and we're going to try to look at money in ways you may not have considered before. I'll be talking today with Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco, a psychoanalyst and vice-president of the International Society of Analytical Trilogy in São Paulo. Our discussions today will be based on Dr. Norberto Keppe's extraordinary book, Liberation of the People: The Pathology of Power. The book is an in depth and incisive psychological critique of money and power which reaches to the very root cause of our inverted and seriously pathological society and power structures. It's essential reading, and I have some copies in English to give away to the first 25 people who email me at rich@richjonesvoice.com. Send me your name and mailing address and I'll let you know how you can get your copy. A couple of weeks ago, we began the exploration of money in our program about Adam Smith. Today, let's go deeper into this area that impacts us all so deeply. Our society is dominated by it. Click here to listen to this episode. Click here to read the transcript.

Newton knew it, it is said. So did Carnegie, Beethoven and Einstein. The implication being that if you don't have everything, the secret will give it to you. Today on Thinking With Somebody Else's Head, we'll take a closer look at the Law of Attraction. That's the big secret that's being divulged in the viral video that's sweeping North America. But do the ideas in this movie tell the whole story? I think not. First off, I have to admit, I'm a little behind the curve when it comes to catching up on the trends sweeping North America. For one thing, I live in Brazil, which makes me at least six months late simply by virtue of geography. Stuff takes awhile to get here. But I finally got a chance recently to see this "ground-breaking feature length movie", as they call it in the marketing blurb on the website - which was written in a manner suggesting that they were trying to capitalize on the success of the DaVinci Code's so called esoteric legacy. The webpage and film are dripping with an implied mystical wisdom that uses a common technique: mixing universal truths with dialectical inaccuracy that winds up leaving everyone confused. You know, in a recent teleclass I conducted in the U.S., this was something that came up again and again - people had read all the books, attended all the seminars, watched all the videos, listened to all the tapes, and were still totally confused about what was true or not. I started this podcast and blog exactly to address that confusion, using the philosophical, theological and scientific knowledge coming out of Dr. Norberto Keppe's International Society of Analytical Trilogy in Brazil. Today, I talk with researcher Cesar Soós, a frequent contributer to Thinking With Somebody Else's Head, about the Law of Attraction. Click here to listen to this episode.

It's created billionaires, and opponents would argue, systemized the destitution of the majority of the world's population. It's evolved of course, but the origins of capitalism can be traced to one man ... Adam Smith. I'm aware I'm wading into controversial waters by embarking on a critique of Adam Smith, but after living in a so called Third World country for the past five and a half years, I've seen the negative impact of his economic view first hand. And it's been illuminating, to say the least. I remember an article years ago by Harvard theology professor Harvey Cox about how the stock market was being treated like God. This excellent article originated from Cox's spending a few months observing the business pages after a lifetime of studying religion. He expected to be in completely foreign territory flipping through the Wall Street Journal. Instead, he found the language in the business section to be remarkably similar to Genesis and St. Augustine's City of God. Today, we'll explore the roots of capitalism through its first big proponent, Adam Smith. And we'll do it from an interesting perspective, because our guest today is an artist! Albeit an extraordinary one. Gilbert Gambucci is a classically trained pianist who's played professionally on three continents.

We stand around the water cooler and shake our heads at the lives of those who have it, and destroy it. This time on Thinking With Somebody Else's Head, some perspective on success. I'm a North American. It would be impossible not to be affected by the blinders-on-full-sheets-to-the-wind-hell-bent-for-leather single mindedness of the North American culture in its focus on achieving the promised land that is the state of success. We treat the subject with the reverence and hushed tones that mystics from former times reserved for the awe of creation and poets for the sweet pains of love. But perhaps, in our strivings for material success, we've lost something. It was Canadian writer, Mordecai Richler, who wrote one of the great stories on that very theme in The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz. And if you haven't seen the great 1974 movie with Richard Dreyfuss, you should check it out for a reminder of the perils to our souls of an unrelenting quest to fulfill me, me, me. Susan Berkley is a very successful entrepreneur. She has her own company - The Great Voice Company - she's a highly sought after voice whose clients include AT&T, she's a trainer and a writer.

But are there Richard Lloyd JonesHuman beings have been raising kids forever. There are oceans of words on the subject. Mountains of theories. Even comic strips. You can pay to have child rearing advice, or get an earful of the unpaid kind every time the in-laws come over. But are there any final conclusions? When you Google the topic, you'll be overwhelmed with pages to peruse. A search in Yahoo will yield thousand to books on the topic. There is certainly no shortage of perspectives out there. Still, it seems no matter what you do, sooner or later, some expert will pop up out of the blue and declare with absolute certainty that you did everything wrong. But if we're finalizing the mapping of the human psyche here at the International Society of Integral Psychoanalysis in Brazil, we must be able to draw some more definitive conclusions. Selma Genzani is a psychoanalyst at Dr. Keppe's Integral Psychoanalysis clinic in São Paulo. She sees a wide range of clients, including many children and their parents. She has a lot of great, and different from the usual, thoughts on raising kids. Oh, and one more thing ... she's a parent, too.

Freedom from tyranny or injustice. Personal freedom is something many of us take for granted. Others dream and scheme and protest because freedom's been denied them. Is there anything left to be said about freedom? Actually, yes. Today on Thinking With Somebody Else's Head, we'll take a crack at discussing freedom in a new way. Dante Alighieri, like all of humanity's greatest artists, had a number of things to say on the subject. He weighed in rather definitively, actually, with his observations that mankind is at its best when it's most free. Adam Smith believed that if you just left people to do whatever they wanted they would rather miraculously do beneficial things. That all sounds pretty conclusive. But Shakespeare was a little more cautious: the wise man knows himself to be a fool, he cautioned. And the great fathers of psychopathology in the twentieth century saw some murky stuff down in our psyches that gave them pause as well before declaring that human beings always do what's right when they have the freedom. Is it possible that this much sought after condition called freedom hasn't been considered as much as it should have? Let's find out. Join us for the discussion. Click here to listen to this episode.

Suddenly, you weren’t just doing something good or bad. With Freud, it was now possible to say, “You think you’re doing something good. But you’re not.” Because much, if not most, of human activity is being driven by something down deep that we don’t have much understanding of. Until now. Today on Thinking With Somebody Else’s Head, we’ll explore the latest research into the psychological roots of disease with Dr. Claudia Pacheco, psychoanalyst at the International Society of Analytical Trilogy and founder of the STOP the Destruction of the World Association. Dr. Pacheco will offer us an incisive look into the latest discoveries in the science of psychopathology being put forward by the extraordinary psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe, with whom Dr. Pacheco has worked closely for the past 30 years. The inescapable fact arising out of their research and clinical analysis is that, shockingly, human intentions are not good. This, of course, flies in the face of much of what we’ve learned from numerous big brains throughout history, but that doesn’t take away its validity. And it certainly explains why, in the middle of the largest media explosion in human history where more information is available about our destructive ways and the need to change them than ever before, we are continuing to destroy the planet at a skyrocketing pace.

Love inspires us. Some say it even destroys us. Love is blind. Love can keep us together. Love is like an itching in my heart. You see, we're surrounded by the word, but I wonder if we know the first thing about it. Today on Thinking With Somebody Else's Head, some truth about love. Maybe there's no subject that's been as much written about, thought about, sung about, and cried over than today's topic. But all of that only gives us the illusion that we know about it. You say the word enough times, you hear it enough, and you can think you know it. But how many of us have ever actually taken a hard look at love?

Omni-present, to be sure. Dogma even. But omni-present dogma does not scientific certainty make. There are a lot of very highly qualified people ascribing quite different causes of AIDS. We're going to hear about some of those thoughts today. This is a more psychological perspective, perhaps, which we'll be exploring more. This will be a start. My guest will be Swedish journalist, Helena Mellander, who has been researching psychosomatic medicine for the past three years and writing extensively about her findings both in Sweden and here in Brazil.

WhenRichard Lloyd JonesIt's common knowledge that HIV is the cause of AIDS, that it's sexually transmitted and that there's no known cure. Arguing against that can cost you dearly if you're a scientist (not to mention cause people to give you a very wide berth at parties). When world renowned virologist, Peter Duesberg, had the gall to question the efficacy of the virus testing process of the first supposed isolators of HIV, he was widely ex-communicated from the scientific community and denied future grant money to continue his research. That kind of stuff should really make us sit up and take notice. Any fact that is incontrovertible can certainly withstand the scrutiny, can't it? But the complete ostracization of the would be scrutinizers is surely proof that there is more going on here than we are being led to believe.

While it’s a pretty cool movie graphically (especially the neural transmitters graphics that make it much clearer than old Mr. Erickson ever did way back in Grade 11 Biology), it’s seriously lacking in some key metaphysical concepts. First of all, the “creating your day” thing is totally megalomanic, but beyond that, it’s interesting to note the conclusions quantum physicists have made about the macro world because of the contradictions they see in the micro one. Just because an electron changes its position when a scientist looks at it or light can be both a particle and a wave depending on the way in which someone views it is no reason to suggest that the same thing happens in the world we can physically see. I mean, if you pass me on the street on Tuesday, I’m going to look pretty much the same as I did a week ago. Or a year ago. Or even ten years ago, for that matter. There’s no reason to suspect that gravity is suddenly going to reverse its direction from one moment to the next. The reality we have around us is NOT contingent on our input, as many quantum physicists would have us believe. Now, of course, I’m simplifying considerably here, but the simplification contains a truth as well. And there’s something here quantum physicists need to consider deeper. And thanks to the extraordinary work of Dr. Norberto Keppe, we have the science to challenge their conclusions. Here’s a show that starts the process of doing that.

The conclusions he reached on this momentous voyage changed how we saw the world and our place in it. There was only one problem: Charles Robert Darwin was wrong. Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, we’ll examine one of the most influential ideas in science over the past 200 years – the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection. Charles Darwin’s much touted theories have been enthusiastically, even religiously, embraced by science, and questioning them invites scorn on a level normally reserved for members of the flat earth society. Still, it has to be said: Darwin made some great and essential errors. Let's have a deeper look. Today on Thinking With Somebody Else’ Head, Darwin’s Folly. Click here to download this episode.

The comment will go something like, “But who’s to say what’s right and wrong? What’s bad for you might be good for me. Everyone has their truth, after all.” This is the essence of relativism, isn’t it? Right and wrong? Well, that depends on your point of view ... These types of comments sound scholarly and learned. After all, we must learn to appreciate all points of view in our increasingly globalized world. In Canada, where I’m from, we’ve taken this on as a national initiative, making a great effort to absorb all differences into our malleable and ever expanding national heritage. But philosophical relativity is deeply flawed. In actual fact, we don’t live our lives by it either. If someone tells you a lie, you don’t say, “Well, maybe he needed to sleep with that other woman and not tell me about it.” Further, we can say unequivocally that slavery is ALWAYS wrong, lies are never welcomed, goodness is better than evil. We may have opinions about these truths; those can be relative. But the absolutes are … well, absolute. With all that in mind, let's explore it a little further. Click here to download this episode.
