Summary

This time of covid and quarantine is a rite of passage for humanity, and phenomenally rapid change is possible. What we believe and what we project into the world matters deeply- especially in times of chaos, when a new story is being written. Let us act wisely in the wake of this culture-shifting pandemic.

IN THE INTERVIEW:

  • Everything happening as a result of coronavirus is an intensification of trends already in place
  • Acknowledging that we don’t know what’s going on, and likely never will, to the extent we’d like to believe we do
  • Making sense of the competing narratives around COVID19
  • Is reality bifurcating? What is the relationship between belief and reality?
  • Conspiracy theories don’t leave enough room for ordinary human folly, and the world is not that controllable
  • However, the tilt of civilization has been skewing ever closer to totalitarian control, and this is heightening that
  • War mentality and going deeper than the constant search for a new enemy to fight
  • Asking, instead, what conditions were in place to create this?
  • The possibility that this shifts the current medical paradigm
  • Do we choose further disconnection, or do we reclaim human togetherness?
  • Propagating a new story- what we radiate out in this potent moment is a suggestion to others about what’s possible for humans
  • We won’t survive life, so what can this collective lesson in dying teach us?
  • The more we are governed by security, the more anemic our lives become
  • Our actions matter- recovering the primordial knowing of our own power and the connection between self and cosmos
  • Real health comes from community- it is an illusion that we can thrive in isolation
  • Shifting the prepping paradigm from personal hoarding to preparing to help others
  • When humans disrupt the matrix of interbeing, proliferation of novel viruses, disease-bearing ticks, etc, is inevitable
  • Generosity of community is the only reliable insurance policy

AFTERWORD:

  • Ecological interbeing, nature connection as antidote, and a pandemic of possibility

It's not a deliverance for humanity, but it is an opportunity for us to no longer blindly and helplessly walk down the road that we've been going down.

0:16.0

Hello friends and welcome to the Medicine Stories podcast where we are remembering what it is to be human upon the earth and what a good time to be doing that.

0:30.0

I'm your host Amber Magnolia Hill. Today I am sharing my interview with Charles Eisenstein.

0:38.0

Charles and I spoke a few months ago as well. That was episode 60. The boundaries of the unthinkable are wavering which is very much

0:47.2

what's happening right now right so this is going to be probably the shortest intro

0:52.2

I've ever done because I just want to get right into it.

0:55.4

The only thing I have to tell you is that I've recorded a special outro for this episode.

1:01.2

I read first of all a post that Stephen Herod Buner previous podcast

1:07.5

guest put up on Facebook a week or so ago it's his response to the apparently barrage of emails he's getting, which I can only imagine,

1:18.3

since he's been writing about viruses and viral pandemic possibilities for years.

1:26.6

His response to people telling him that the virus

1:28.8

has been created by humans, bioengineered.

1:33.8

It goes deep into the larger ecological matrix of life,

1:40.0

which is also something that Charles and I speak about.

1:43.4

And then I read a second post written by someone I don't know and I've never met.

1:48.7

Someone just texted this to me.

1:50.7

Her name is Katie Lamont and just beautiful words about the

1:57.3

solution, like actually the one solution, one weird trick, one solution to everything that's going on right now, but really like there is one underlying solution that I'm coming back to again and again and that many of us are being pointed towards as well and that comes

2:15.6

up in this conversation with Charles.

2:18.1

And then finally I tell you about another podcast episode from another podcast that I have found to be the most helpful

2:26.2

for me during this time.

2:28.9

So you can stick around after the interview if you would like to hear those wise words and be pointed
