Welcome to the World Transformation Movement Deaf Effect Course.
As I explained in Video/​Freedom Essay 11,
humans have lived in such extreme fear of the subject of our horrifically corrupted
or ‘fallen’ human condition that when the reconciling understanding of it finally arrives—as
it now has—that historic fear makes reading about the human condition extremely difficult.
As soon as discussion of the human condition begins, the mind of almost every person becomes
subconsciously alert to the fact they are being taken into what has been a completely off-limits
realm and consequently starts blocking out what is being said. Your mind will find it difficult
taking in or ‘hearing’ what is being said; it will suffer from a ‘DEAF EFFECT’ to what is
being presented, with the tragic consequence being that you won’t discover the fabulously relieving
understanding that liberates and transforms you from the horror of the human condition!
Clearly then, solving this problem of the ‘deaf effect’ that reading about
the human condition initially causes, is critically important—and in Video/F.
Essay 11 I put forward a number of options for solving it.
The most effective method by far was the fourth option, where you are assisted through the
‘deaf effect’ by having someone repeatedly go through the explanation of the human condition,
showing how it compassionately and thus safely makes sense of every aspect of
human behaviour—be it politics, religion, the relationship between men and women, and so on.
In these talks, while it is the accountability of the explanation that is holding
the listener’s interest, most significantly what is also happening is that their
fear of the issue of the human condition is being eroded. Just how effective this process of
eroding the ‘deaf effect’ is is revealed by this comment that people almost invariably made after
watching just a few of the typical presentations about the human condition that I often gave:
‘That was a much better presentation this time than last time Jeremy, the explanations and
descriptions were so much easier to follow.’ In truth, since the talks were virtually identical,
what had dramatically improved was actually not the quality or content of the presentation
but the listener’s ability to take in or ‘hear’ what was being said.
I will be conducting interactive introductory talks about the human condition with volunteers
who are new to the information, and over time a collection of the most helpful
of these discussions will be included here to form the WTM Deaf Effect Course.
Before beginning to watch the interactive video presentations, which are specifically designed
to erode the ‘deaf effect’, it is important that you follow these 4 steps (if you haven’t already):
First, watch or read or listen to THE Interview.
Second, watch or read or listen to the short Video/​F. Essay 3: The Explanation of the Human Condition;
Third, watch/​read/​listen to Video/​F. Essay 4: The ‘instinct vs intellect’ treatise is obvious;
Fourth, watch/​read/​listen to Video/​F. Essay 11: The difficulty of reading FREEDOM;
Fifth, watch/​read/​listen to Video/​F. Essay 12:
The one hour summarising talk that introduces the WTM Deaf Effect Course.
Once you have watched/​read/​listened to those 5 introductory presentations
to the problem of, and solution to, the ‘deaf effect’, we then recommend you begin watching,
and continue to watch, the following interactive presentations until such time that you feel that
you are able to effectively read and take in discussion of the human condition—after which
you can proceed to read/​watch/​listen to any of the other presentations on our website.
Please note that over time these interactive presentations will be added to
and improved upon, so to see the latest collection of interactive presentations,
always check this Video/​F. Essay 13 on our website.
We will begin the interactive talks with the following video of a presentation of
the biological explanation of the human condition that I gave to a focus group in Sydney in 2014.
