[Ep.51] How Conditioned Are We ? 42:35

2M ago42:35

42:35

How much of what you do, think and feel comes from intentional, free chosing? How much of your actions and decisions are pre-programmed? You are the product of your upbringing, culture and genetics. What is out of our control? What can we influence? How can we counteract our predestination? Homepage: https://whoamipodcast.com Facebook: https://www.…

[Ep.50] What Am I Responsible For ? 53:24

3M ago53:24

53:24

Are you taking too little responsibility for your actions, or perhaps too much? How much are you able to understand or determine the consequences of your decisions? Are you in control of anything?

[Ep.49] Empathy Can Be A Super Power 1:06:05

6M ago1:06:05

1:06:05

Everyone has the choice of either living isolated from other people and their own feelings on the one hand, or to connect with others and their own emotional core on the other hand. The road towards connectedness involves vulberability and weakness. But it leads to a very rewarding ability that includes deeper understanding of and union with humani…

[Ep.48] Why Am I Ashamed? 52:52

8M ago52:52

52:52

What secrets do you have? What facts about you must never become known to others? What happens in our childhood that implants beliefs in us that hide away for the rest of our life? Can we uncover them deliberately? Can we regain the emotional freedom and levity that playing children have? Steven and William discuss theses questions in an attempt to…

[Ep.47] The Good and Bad of Making Promises 1:00:25

8M ago1:00:25

1:00:25

Humans need each other, and so they need to depend on each other. When we make a promise or sign a contract we intensify an understanding that is usually mutually beneficial, but we also agree to retribution in the case of non-fulfillment. Is such a formal arrangement better than the everyday trust we put in someone's word? Or is it a sign of a lac…

[Ep.46] How to convince people that 2+2=5 53:40

9M ago53:40

53:40

Psychological torture can be used to break someone's mind and implant a belief in the victim's mentality that will shape their behaviour permanently. Is something similar going on at a societal scale? Are we all susceptible to a slow and subtle mental manipulation through mainstream media and other influences? How can we become aware of such tricks…

[Ep.45] Our Insane Search for Security 39:20

10M ago39:20

39:20

Feelings of anxiety often come when some security in our life diminishes. Because we believe that our existence depends on that safety net, we fear that its loss will cause our life to end. Jiddu Krishnamurti has helped many audiences realise the falsehood of such beliefs. In this interview he explains step by step how such thoughts about our exist…

[Ep.44] Are you Living in your Head? 50:36

10M ago50:36

50:36

Everyone overthinks, not only people diagnosed with OCD. We spend the majority of every day ruminating over the same old thoughts: worries about how we are viewed, about our possessions, and about any other thing or idea that makes up our artificial identity. Living in the past is another example of this, for example holding onto regrets or abuses.…

[Ep.43] Do You Believe in Extra-Terrestrial Life? 50:58

50:58

Neither William nor Steven have had first-hand experiences with alien life or technology. But it can be fun to speculate&colon; What would it mean for humanity if an advanced race from a distant galaxy visited our planet? What technologies and spiritual insights would we be able to learn about from them? Would novel sources of virtually free energy…

[Ep.42] Why Everyone Needs Psychic Healing 50:57

11M ago50:57

50:57

Honesty is a necessary ingredient for healing from past traumas, mainly honesty with yourself. If other people become disagreeable because you are learning to understand your self better, do you prefer to fit in and comply with societal norms or are you prepared to sacrifice those things for clarity about who you are and what the actual purpose of …

In a dark, lethal forest we are comissioned with finding and delivering the dwarves' warhammer to their leader at Stonebridge to the north in order for his army to defeat the troll threat.

[Ep.38] The Masks We Wear 53:13

1y ago53:13

53:13

We primarily think of actors as the ones playing a role and pretending to be someone they really are not. But in a sense everyone wears a mask and acts out a charade. This can be done deliberately, but most of the time is quite subconscious and involuntary. What are the purposes of putting on an invisibile mask? What would life be like without them…

[Ep.37] The Trap of Conceptualisation 58:04

1y ago58:04

58:04

The Western world view is one of engineering and logic. It has solidified the already pervasive habit of intellectualising the human experience. By applying mental concepts to our surroundings, our identity and our mind, we severely limit and even distort our perception thereof. Clip "Tradition" from the musical movie "Fiddler on the Roof" (1971). …

[Ep.36] I Surrender - Freedom through Acceptance 50:25

1y ago50:25

50:25

Apathy is not caring about what goes on with you and around you. Acceptance, on the other hand, is deliberately allowing things within and around you to be the way they are. It is the absence of expectations and intellectual concepts. With this absence the subconscious, and nature in general, can flow freely, heal itself and you can be more passion…

[Ep.35] Why Anger?! 53:06

1y ago53:06

53:06

You cannot be angry at someone without first being angry at yourself.

[Ep.34] Self Confidence comes from within 58:00

1y ago58:00

58:00

Trusting in one's own abilities and believing in one's own value is something that cannot be created or built. Self confidence comes about naturally by resolving inner conflicts and allowing any outer conditions to transpire. Trying to change your circumstances without first working on your inner world is futile and only leads to people living a ch…

[Ep.33] A traumatised collective heals through individual awakening 1:02:56

1+ y ago1:02:56

1:02:56

Mental distress in adults can often be traced back to their childhood. The underlying traumatic experience in the past has been suppressed so that every-day life can continue in a more or less normal way. There are indications of a society-wide trauma complex that causes the majority of us to remain subdued and obedient to authoritarianism our enti…

[Ep.32] You shouldn't should - The toxicity of expectations and absolutes 48:25

1+ y ago48:25

48:25

How much of your behaviour comes from your freely made decisions? And how much of your every-day life is run by subconscious programs? From day one we are influenced by the actions and inactions of people around us. They inadvertently, and sometimes deliberately, shape our perspective and thereby our reasoning and decision-making. Can we rise to a …

[Ep.31] Learning to differentiate thoughts, emotions and sensations 54:54

54:54

We have thousands of thoughts and feelings each and every day. How many of them are we aware of? How many of them remain subconscious and unnoticed? Are you content with the thought patterns installed in your subconscious and the resulting emotions? Do they work in your favour and motivate your to take productive actions and experience pleasant sen…

[Ep.30] Choose your own Purpose in Life 58:47

2y ago58:47

58:47

Are you free to create your own path in life? Or are you following a script? Everyone is in both situations to one degree or another. The more we choose to drop beliefs about who we SHOULD be and what we SHOULD be doing with our time and energy, though, the more we are free to choose our own values, goals and methods of achieving them. This process…

Mr. INTP and I discuss biological and philosophical views of epistemology and personal identity: What can I truly know for certain? How do my beliefs and my biology confine my sense of identity? How can they be changed to expand my view of the world and myself? Homepage: https://whoamipodcast.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/podcastwhoami Twi…
