Were someone to tell you that humans are unaware of something so significant in their lives that it is the equivalent of them not noticing an elephant in their living room, you would be likely to say they were being absurd. If you were also told that this ‘elephant’ was the underlying cause of all the problems and unhappiness in the world you would no doubt be even more disbelieving. And you would undoubtedly be totally dismissive if you were told humans can now rid themselves of this all-pervasive and troublesome ‘elephant’. Well, the existence of this ‘elephant in our living room’ is actually true. It is also true that it is the cause of all our fears and worries. In fact this ‘elephant’ stands squarely between where humanity is now and a future for humanity, if there is to be one. Astonishingly enough, it is also true that this mammoth impediment can now be eliminated from human life! People everywhere are so relieved to finally understand human life as the below selection of reviews from this week testify (and appear with over 20,000 more on the FIX THE WORLD homepage): “This amazing interview gave me a great sense of relief. So much stress was released once I understood what he presents” Wanda A, US “The world has been influenced by falsehood for a very long time. THE Interview takes us to another level of looking for solutions for the challenges in the world” Dr Timothy M, Kenya “This gives the hope you have lost. A historical moment. We must work together so that this can happen 🙏❤️” Agneta H “The human power of thinking is indeed amazing & the capacity of research conducted & deduced here is overwhelming” Vilitati, Fiji “Powerfully simple, this shows how to view our accumulated behavior, uncover our shadow & let our souls heal in LIGHT!” Jennifer B, US “I was blown away the first time I listened to this. Hence; I will share. Listen to this from beginning to end” Lainie R “I’m so grateful for your work & for sharing true care & concern for humanity. It needs to be incorporated into education” Jovon R, US “If like me you're dismayed, bewildered & angered by the world, wars, greed, this explains the Human Condition.

Over the eons a chaotic universe organised itself into stars, planets and galaxies humancondition.com/freedom-e… —and that here on Earth, atoms became ordered or integrated to form molecules → which in turn integrated to form compounds → virus-like organisms → single-celled organisms → multicellular organisms → then societies of multicellular organisms → and beyond that the integration of species members into ‘Specie Individuals’. So the direction or theme or purpose or meaning of existence is the ordering or integration or complexification of matter, a process that is driven by the physical law of Negative Entropy where, in an open system, in which energy can come into the system from outside it—in Earth’s case, from the sun, and, in the case of the universe, from the original ‘big bang’ explosion that created it—matter integrates; it develops order. ‘Holism’, which the dictionary defines as ‘the tendency in nature to form wholes’, and ‘teleology’, which is defined as ‘the belief that purpose and design are a part of nature’, are both terms that recognise this integrative ‘tendency’. In 1987, the physicist Paul Davies acknowledged the integrative process when he wrote that ‘We seem to be on the verge of discovering not only wholly new laws of nature, but ways of thinking about nature that depart radically from traditional science…​Way back in the primeval phase of the universe, gravity triggered a cascade of self-organizing processes—organization begets organization—that led, step by step, to the conscious individuals who now contemplate the history of the cosmos and wonder what it all means…​There exists alongside the entropy arrow another arrow of time [the Negative Entropy arrow], equally fundamental and no less subtle in nature…​I refer to the fact that the universe is progressing—through the steady growth of structure, organization and complexity—to ever more developed and elaborate states of matter and energy. This unidirectional advance we might call the optimistic arrow, as opposed to the pessimistic arrow of the second law. There has been a tendency for scientists to simply deny the existence of the optimistic arrow. One wonders why.’ Biologist Jeremy Griffith explains that the reason ‘why’ ‘scientists’ ‘deny’ ‘the optimistic arrow’ of Integrative Meaning is because it confronts humans with the issue of our divisive, selfish and competitive, ‘good and evil’-conflicted, apparently non-integrative human condition. The fact is that for a larger whole to form and hold together the parts of that whole must consider the welfare of the whole above their own welfare—put simply, selfishness is divisive or disintegrative while selflessness is integrative. So, consider-others-above-yourself, altruistic, unconditional selflessness is the underlying theme of existence; it’s the glue that holds the world together and what we really mean by the term ‘love’. BUT, again, acknowledging that the meaning of life is to be integrative, cooperative, selfless and loving left humans feeling unbearably condemned as bad, evil or unworthy for our divisive competitive, selfish and aggressive, seemingly-unloving behaviour. In fact, despite Integrative Meaning being an extremely obvious truth—because there are hierarchies of ordered matter everywhere we look, such as in trees, animals, our body, rocks, clouds, etc, etc—it has been such a terrifyingly condemning truth that we deified the process of Integrative Meaning as ‘God’, thus making it something separate and superior to us, not connected to us in an earthly, practical way. As the philosopher Nikolai Berdyaev put it, ‘He cannot [man struggles to] break through to paradise that lies beyond the painful distinction between good and evil, and the suffering connected therewith. Man’s fear of God is his fear of himself, of the yawning abyss of non-being [alienation] in his own nature. But, now that understanding of the human condition has been found and our divisive behaviour is explained, it becomes psychologically safe to demystify #God as Integrative Meaning, and, by so doing, finally reconcile #religion and #science... and much, much more —> read on humancondition.com/freedom-e…

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐬? This is an especially significant question when we consider that other animals haven’t been able to develop a fully conscious mind. humancondition.com/freedom-e… Since a conscious, self-adjusting mind would seem to be a very great asset for an animal to have, the obvious initial question when thinking about consciousness is, ‘Why haven’t many animals developed it?’ Despite this being an obvious question, it is conventionally argued that consciousness only emerged in humans because of our need to manage complex social situations—an argument known as the ‘Social Intelligence Hypothesis’. For example, the famous Harvard biologist E.O. Wilson relies upon this theory in The Social Conquest of Earth, when he says that ‘to feel empathy for others, to measure the emotions of friends and enemy alike, to judge the intentions of all of them, and to plan a strategy for personal social interactions…​the human brain became…​highly intelligent’ (2012, p.17 of 330). Social problem solving is an obvious benefit from being conscious, but all activities that animals have to manage would benefit enormously from being able to understand cause and effect, so it is completely illogical to argue that it wasn’t until the need to manage extremely complex social situations that consciousness developed. Any sensible analysis of the question of the emergence of consciousness must be based on the question of what has prevented its development in other animals. It is such a powerful asset for an animal to have that something must have stopped it being selected for in other species. The lack of social situations doesn’t explain why the fully conscious mind hasn’t appeared in non-human species. There was ample need for a conscious mind prior to the appearance of complex social situations. So the question we have to ask is ‘𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐬?’

Biologist Jeremy Griffith's breakthrough explanation of the human condition is the key to solving our selfishness, greed and apathy. greenmatters.com/environment… Griffith explains that the human condition – the paradoxical reality that humans are capable of extraordinary cooperation, love, and creativity, yet also selfishness, greed, violence, and destruction – is the result of an unresolved psychological conflict that arose when consciousness emerged in our ancestors and began operating in opposition to instinctive orientations established by evolution. This evolutionary clash can now be scientifically explained. More significantly, Jeremy Griffith explains that understanding this condition makes possible the kind of spiritual and cultural transformation that Speth argued is necessary if humanity is to stop destroying the natural world. It is an extraordinary claim, but one that has attracted support from a growing number of prominent scientists, conservationists and thought leaders. The late wildlife biologist George Schaller, one of the world’s leading conservation scientists, described Griffith’s insights as “fascinating and pertinent” and said they “must be developed and disseminated.” Similarly, Ian Player, the South African conservationist best known for helping save the white rhino, wrote that Griffith was “getting answers to much that has puzzled and bewildered humanity for a long time.” Within academia, the eminent ecologist Stuart Hurlbert, Professor Emeritus of Biology at San Diego State University, went further – remarking that Griffith’s work was akin to a “Darwin II” discovery, in that it addresses the unresolved question of the human condition following Darwin’s explanation of biological evolution. In his commendation for Griffith’s book 'FREEDOM: The End Of The Human Condition', Professor Harry Prosen, a former President of the Canadian Psychiatric Association, firstly acknowledged the seriousness of our species’ plight when he wrote that “I think the fastest growing realisation everywhere is that humanity can’t go on the way it is going. Indeed, the great fear is we’re entering endgame where we appear to have lost the race between self-destruction and self-understanding”, and then, described how Griffith has achieved the seemingly impossible task of confronting and solving the human condition, writing that “Astonishing as it is, this book by Australian biologist Jeremy Griffith presents the 11th hour breakthrough biological explanation of the human condition necessary for the psychological maturation and transformation of our species. 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐭 𝐯𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭: 𝐀 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐖𝐚𝐫 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐈𝐭𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 At the core of Jeremy Griffith’s theory is a deceptively simple idea: humans are the only species to have developed a fully conscious, reasoning mind – and that development came at a cost. Like all animals, our hominin ancestors lived under the guidance of instincts. But as consciousness began to emerge in these distant ancestors, a profound conflict developed between instinct and intellect. Crucially, instincts cannot understand, they can only direct. So when the conscious mind began experimenting and deviating in its necessary search for knowledge, our instincts effectively “criticized” that behavior as wrong. Unable to explain its departure from the instinctive directives, the conscious mind became insecure and defensive – it became retaliatory, preoccupied with proving its worth, and blocking out the criticism. This is the origin of the anger, egocentricity and alienation that characterize human behavior, and ultimately underpin humanity’s social and environmental problems. Jeremy Griffith explains that these behaviors are not indicators of inherent human flaws but rather legitimate, albeit ‘artificial’, defensive responses that had to be adopted in the absence of the real explanation for why the intellect was challenging the instincts. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐭 𝐌𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐅𝐢𝐱 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 For centuries, humans have tried to fix the world through religion, morality, politics, activism, education and social engineering. Yet despite enormous progress in science and technology, the underlying drivers of anger, egocentricity and alienation continue to wreak havoc on the world. Griffith explains that lasting change cannot come from attempting to suppress these behaviours, because they are symptoms of a deeper psychological insecurity. Humans became defensive because the conscious mind could not explain why it had challenged our instincts. As a result, our species adopted ‘artificial’ defences of anger, egocentricity and alienation in an attempt to protect itself from a sense of guilt and condemnation it did not understand. The significance of Griffith’s explanation, is that it finally provides the understanding that was missing. Having at last found the explanation it had been searching for, the human ego is satisfied at the most fundamental level. As a result, the artificial defences of anger, egocentricity and alienation are no longer psychologically necessary, because the conscious self no longer needs to defend or justify its condition. Jeremy Griffith’s explanation therefore amounts to more than a theory of human behaviour, it provides the means to resolve the insecurity driving human selfishness and destructiveness, making possible the kind of spiritual and cultural transformation that Speth argued was necessary to fix the world.

Those lines, written in the late 1980s, could serve as an anthem for our age of disillusionment. From Wall Street bailouts to widening inequality, the moral doubts about capitalism remain as raw as ever. But what if the story of greed and inequality isn't just economic? What if the roots of competition and ambition lie deeper – in human psychology itself?
