Depression and Society

Here’s a wild thought: it’s our socio-economic structure that is causing most of our distress and misery today.

We’ll even go a little further: it leading us into mental and physical illness. After all, human beings cannot live in balance if society is out of balance. The dynamics between the individual’s internal problems and the resultant social difficulties has rarely been studied … and never with the clarity and vision we’ll introduce today.

Stress as a consequence of social sickness, led by the most unbalanced individuals in our society today – our leaders – and what we need to do to improve it. Provocative stuff today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head.

How the Mind Influences Nature

Science has become tragically compartmentalized. A bacteriologist has little knowledge of what an endocrinologist does, much less does a paleontologist understand anything of molecular chemistry. And although all of it may be Greek to us, there is a synthesis in science that comes from disinverting the basis of the scientific disciplines.

Norberto Keppe’s work of Analytical Trilogy has accomplished that Herculean feat, and we are the lucky beneficiaries. Science that makes sense today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, and along the way, a consideration of good and evil, what’s happening in the Arab world, and how our minds influence nature – beautifully explained as always by Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco and Richard Lloyd Jones.

Man’s Inverted Desire to be a “god”

Dec. 1, 2010

We go deep to the source of humanity’s problems on our show today, which we can do thanks to the science of Norberto Keppe, who is a master of human psycho and socio pathology. Join host Richard Lloyd Jones and special guest, Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco in an expansive and thrilling discussion that looks at how the desire to be like gods manifests in every area from politics and business to the spiritual world. We’ll also have a special report from the field with Gilbert Gambucci discussing the true basis of civilization.

The Will, Freedom and True Reality

Dec. 7, 2010

Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco joins us today for a profound exploration of the nature of life, how far we’ve strayed from it and what that distance means for human intelligence and culture. A poetic discussion that finds time along the way to consider the inverted human will, airport security gone mad, and how the Japanese are using Mozart to ripen bananas.

Where our Health Really Comes From

Sartre proposed that hell was the other people, and maybe we took that too much to heart. So we build walls to keep out the Mexicans, we stone the “terrible” married women who sleep around, we blame everyone but ourselves for our troubles.

And perhaps one of the most pernicious areas dominated by the “problem comes from outside” mentality is health.

Today on Thinking with Somebody Else’s Head, Where our Health Really Comes From.

Every couple of days I receive a great e-newsletter from Dr. Mercola. It’s chock full of great information – too much for me to keep up with, frankly. But there’s lots of good stuff in there about how GM foods are taking over, the dangers of artificial sweeteners and fluoride and even vaccines. It’s invaluable stuff.

It struck me, however, how materialistic it is, and so limited because of this. So many details about nutrition, like simple secrets to better digestive health, the things men can do to tweak their prostate health, amazing tonics and teas and supplements. Oh, were it that easy, right? It seems we are addicted to looking for solutions outside.

My father, who’s 86 now, has a health food store in his bedroom. Exotic things like shark cartilage, Komodo bearded dragon dusting powder, leucistic sugar gliders. Man’s search for healing medicinal tonics is centuries old. This desperate drive to find our health answers outside has been exploited by many snake-oil salesmen among others – including the first Rockefellers. The father of J.D., J.D. being the oil robber baron everyone knows about, was well known for bottling a strange concoction and travelling all over America palming off bottled raw petroleum as a magical elixir he assured the gullible would cure everything from gas to cancer. His son, the very same J.D., was suitably impressed by this – especially when he realized it cost only $2.00 a barrel to concoct the elixir from crude petroleum, and that barrel would produce 1000 – 6 oz. bottles of the stuff. He labelled it Nujol, and sold it as a cure for constipation back in the 1920s.

We’re so desperate to find the origins of our illnesses that we’ll spend a fortune looking for magic from outside. This fear of things outside reached its zenith in the 20th century with Darwin’s theory. If we’re all animals, it must be a jungle out there, so eat or be eaten my friend. And look at all the disastrous collateral damage of that inverted view.

Louis Pasteur kicked into action at the end of the 19th century with th etheory that disease would originate from germs formed outside – and this took off because of the huge support of the burgeoning pharmaceutical industry that would make billions selling medicines to kill those offending germs outside. And we’d forget all about the amazing work of Antoine Bechamp, Pasteur’s contemporary and a far superior scientist to Louis, who arrived at exactly opposite conclusions from his rival.

This battle is a fascinating one, actually, that we’ll dive into a little today with Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco, a world-renowned author, psychoanalyst, and pioneer in psychosomatic medicine from Dr. Keppe‘s International Society of Analytical Trilogy.

Controlling our Food

It should be a sacred thing. 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. Medical doctor and infectious diseases specialist, Dr. Roberto Giraldo, joins me today to discuss this theory.

Re-Thinking Vaccines

Vaccines have been sold as essential for our survival. 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 genius 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 introduction 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’s 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 promoting and supporting it. And that alone should make us take a second look.

Which we’ll try to help you do today with Dr. Roberto Giraldo.

Debunking the Germ Theory of Disease

He revolutionized the field of medicine, and has numerous institutions named after him for his efforts. 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.

Today, medical doctor and infectious disease specialist, Dr. Roberto Giraldo joins me to talk about Bechamp’s lost but important science.

Psychological Habits of Highly Successful People

The literature is full of advice about what you need to do to attain it. 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. Joneshealing@gmail.com is our email address if you prefer to be more anonymous.

So today, I asked Leo Lima to join me again to continue our discussion about success. We had a lot of very positive response to our Re-Defining Success Podcast a few weeks ago. So let’s dive in again to the Psychological Habits of Highly Successful People.

Controling Swine Flu Hysteria

The biggest 20th century one killed millions. An outbreak in the mid-20th century killed far less. ’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.
