Paul Levy’s new book, Dispelling Wetiko: Breaking the Curse of Evil, is now available. I wrote the forward. This is an intense and powerful exploration of the nature of evil and our wider spiritual and cultural complicity in transmitting it. Much of what Paul writes about are the reasons why I believe that “coming clean” is essential to shifting power and our governance system in a positive manner.

Excerpt from Dispelling Wetiko
There is a contagious psychospiritual disease of the soul, a parasite of the mind, that is currently being acted out en masse on the world stage via a collective psychosis of titanic proportions. This mind-virus which Native Americans have called “wetiko” covertly operates through the unconscious blind spots in the human psyche, rendering people oblivious to their own madness and compelling them to act against their own best interests. An inner cancer of the soul, wetiko flavors and manages our perceptions by stealth and subterfuge so as to act itself out through us while simultaneously hiding itself from being seen. Not constrained by the conventional laws of third-dimensional space and time, this ‘bug’ in the system deceives us by working with the intrinsic projective tendencies of our mind so as to appear external to and other than ourselves, utilizing the seemingly outside world as the canvas for its full-bodied revelation of itself. Wetiko nonlocally in-forms, gives shape to and configures events in the world so as to synchronistically express itself, which is to say that just like in a dream, events in the outer world are symbolically reflecting a condition deep within the psyche of humanity. Drawing on insights from Jungian psychology, shamanism, alchemy, spiritual wisdom traditions, and personal experience, author Paul Levy shows us that hidden within the venom of wetiko is a revelation as well as its own antidote, which once recognized can help us wake up and bring sanity back to our society. How does wetiko manifest? Will it destroy our species, or will it catalyze a deeper process of global awakening? Depends upon recognizing what it is revealing to us about ourselves.
