Program Description
In this intimate conversation with one of the most intriguing thinkers of our time, Claudio Naranjo shares stories from his lifelong journey, and the teachers who molded his mind and his spirit. He explains the origins of the patriarchal attitudes that led to the violence, oppression, and greed that plague the world today, and identifies the consequences of our dependence on reason at the expense of instinct. His solution, though, may come as a surprise, as he tells us that a return to matriarchy is not enough. In his view, “It’s not the alternative patriarchy and matriarchy, but the alternative between patriarchy and a threefold integration of values and ways of thinking that cannot become a cultural reality if it doesn’t start in the individual. Only by beginning with the politics of consciousness can we transform the outer politics of society.” Once again we’re reminded that global change begins with each of us-and Dr. Naranjo’s prescription for change will invite your inner child to dance.
Claudio Naranjo, M.D., is a pioneer in the exploration of human consciousness and the Human Potential Movement, and is well known for bringing the Enneagram to the United States. He is the author of thirteen books, including Character and Neurosis: An Integrative View (Gateway Books 2000), The Enneagram of Society: Healing the Soul to Heal the World (Gateway Books 2005), and Healing Civilization (Gateway Books 2010).
