Collective Evolution with Joe Martino

Today I present a solocast about the phenomenon of emergent collective evolution.. that is to say, how our world changes as a result of us as people and the mysteries of our consciousness. Since our world, society, nature, and selves are complex systems/beings, we must embody this reality when thinking about our own personal transformation as well as our collective one. I refer to a piece I wrote on my personal SubStack here: https://joemartino.substack.com/p/perhaps-this-is-what-it-will-take In this episode: - The importance of understand complex systems vs linear systems when it comes to personal transformation, collective transformation and nature. - How the space of fundamental wellbeing produces emergent being and action in our local and collective field. This is where material change is born. - The difference between linear striving for change, where we worry about the future, and having a deep trust in moment to moment change. - How we can let go of the worry and anxiety associated with global problems that feel bigger than us and out of our immediate control.

In this episode, I explore how we can stay grounded, generally happy, and embodied during chaotic times. I do so by exploring our autonomic nervous system and it's role in how we feel and see the world. I go over some techniques for building capacity and resilience in life while still engaging with the world and society. Recall that the sympathetic system is not solely responsible for survival, but also provides energy and mobilisation to live our lives. Similarly, the Dorsal branch of the parasympathetic nervous system is there to provide a survival response when needed but also rest/digest/repair. The challenge is we can often become locked in the survival portions of these systems.

Curiosity and wonder are important states of mind and being to maintain, and today's guest is going to help us do just that. Jason Quitt presents his fascinating research into our past. As we explore ancient cultures and their artwork and motifs, it appears we are  seeing clues to an ancient language they coded into their relics. Could this be a sign of ancient advanced intelligence? Let's find out. Grab Jason's Astral Genesis book here: https://thecrystalsun.com/shop/astral-genesis-astrological-keys-to-the-gods/Pre-order his new book The Gate of The Gods here: https://thecrystalsun.com/shop/gates-of-the-anunnaki-sacred-geometry-keys-to-the-gods/ In the episode:- We explore a hidden language with ancient motifs from cultures all around the world- The language relates to a profound understanding of Earth's cycles, positions in the sky, astrological alignments, and complex measurements of celestial bodies.- The same "code" is seen amongst cultures with seemingly no contact with one another.- We explore why this ancient language would have been so important to the 'esoteric classes' of people at the time.

A survey revealed that 80% of people in the UK feel their life is meaningless. This is likely representative of other developed nations as well. Why? Why is there such a feeling permeating our collective experience? This episode discusses this revelation and explores ways we might find our way back to meaning.

In this episode, Madhava Setty & I have a discussion with Sam The Illusionist about his channelling work. In a time where different ways of knowing can be useful while we hold a curious and open mind, this conversation feels meaningful. The key for me tends to be, that we need not take channelling as fact, but is a signal worthy of considering and discerning in our sensemaking.

The question of what happens when we die has been around for ages. In this episode Joe explores a prior interview with his close friend Franco DeNicola about his near death and full death experience as we explore what may happen when we die. As with any conversation that is 'out there' or 'controversial', or that explores something in the realm of mystery or wonder, can we be curious while exploring, and pay attention to the various objections that arise while we listen? If something butts up against our belief systems, what happens in our mind and body? Franco passed away a couple of years after this interview was filmed.

This week I bring the concept of sensemaking to the Twitter Files. We'll explore some thoughts on separating the signal from the noise and critique a discussion around 'trusting' Elon Musk.  It has been rather fascinating watching elements of indie media interpret the Twitter Files  and the journalists who have brought them forward, all while the mainstream media virtually blacks out the story.

Back in 2013 there was a sharp rise in the popularity of independent media. An industry once dominated entirely by mainstream voices was now changing at a rapid pace to include an alternative perspective. There were a handful of brands fuelling what eventually became the end of mainstream media dominance. Eventually, those brands were met with a heavy hand from Big Tech & governments for overthrowing the monopoly on narrative control.  Today we'll talk to Jason Bassler, the founder of The Free Thought Project, one of the brands that helped pave the way for the rise of independent media.

Joe and Arjun Walia chat about using discernment with Elon Musk, Twitter, and his neuralink project. They also discuss The Great Reset and discerning presented solutions on that subject as they related to solutions coming from others trying to make society better. Of course, they dive into a couple big topics around COVID as well.

Joe is joined by nervous system and trauma expert Irene Lyon to talk about wellness, nervous system health, ayahuasca and perhaps the missing ingredient to wellness.

Unrest is taking place in Brazil following an election. Claims of election fraud once again hit the airwaves as societies polarize in their views to some extent. We also talk the Freedom Convoy, how we might or might not engage in the existing political process and what our future could look like.

The Great Reset (TGR) is touching on a felt intuition many people share: our systems are in deep need of an overhaul. The question is: shouldn't we all have a say over the direction we head?   Within this conversation of a new society is the advancement of technology and how it is re-shaping what's possible. TGR is presenting somewhat of a transhumanistic future. And in this sense people are becoming afraid of technology and where it could lead. But at the same time, technology being embraced in our future seems a necessity to take care of repetitive tasks and give us more time to do what we love. Will our fear of tech hold us back? Do we know how to resist the Great Reset - Or only insult its creators?
