The Mind Entity That Plagues Humanity: Wetiko



In his book Wetiko: Healing the Mind-Virus That Plagues Our World, Paul Levy argues that all of humanity is under the grasp of a psychological illness: wetiko. Wetiko is a term used in Native American spirituality to describe a “contagious psycho-spiritual disease of the soul” and “a parasite of the mind”. In his book, Levy argues that the concept of ‘wetiko’ is present not just among the Native Americans, but in several spiritual traditions, including Kabbalah, Vedanta, and even the psychology of Carl Jung! He writes:
“Wetiko is a cannibalizing force driven by insatiable greed, appetite without satisfaction, consumption as an end in itself, and war for its own sake, against other tribes, species, nature, and even the individual’s own humanity. It is a disease of the soul, and being a disease of the soul, we all potentially have wetiko, as it pervades and informs the underlying field of consciousness. Any one of us at any moment can fall into our unconscious and unwittingly become an instrument for the evil of wetiko to act itself out through us and incarnate in our world. If we see someone who seems to be taken over by wetiko and we think they have the disease and we don’t, in seeing them as separate we have fallen under the spell of the virus ourselves.”
In this video, we will do a deep dive into the concept of wetiko, and how we can prevent ourselves from being infected by this “mind-virus”. Later in this video, we will also talk about how wetiko was perceived by the great Indian mystic, Sri Aurobindo.

  1. I suggest that there are no evil Human Beings (Being can never be evil) only evil personalities, I think our current way of life is more generative of bad personalities so the struggle to Be is greater. Power and light to all as this to is necessary

  2. My kokum told me that the Elders in the camp always knew when someone was 'changing'. They'd lose their appetite and start chewing at their fingernails all the time.

    Eventually, they needed to separate the head from the body and light it on fire. When the head was on fire, sometimes it'd fly around while finally making a "whirly pop" sound and then dying.

  3. In other words . . . to me it sounds very much like the bible concept of The Sin Nature. Romans 7:23
    But I see another law working in my body, which makes war against the law that my mind accepts. That other law working in my body is the law of sin.

  4. interacting with these can immensely strengthen your resolve and resilience. they are like humanoid robots specifically can emulate human emotions and will constantly present you with two doors. fortunately it does not understand that a conscious can make a third door.

  5. Everything is an idea, we are the ones informing and giving everything meaning. When you integrate your shadow and see it for what it is, your teacher, you actually neutralize it. When you no longer inform a thing as evil it cannot exist.

  6. We can turn the tables, discover wetiko's weaknesses and use it against it. Its weakness is that its not totally malevolent and has a soft spot. Besides, its main tactic is to tempt with fleeting things. Dont fall for those. Just look dont touch, laugh off those objects and scenarios and focus on what matters the most. Build a wall between you and desires that are not timely, but keep your desires of good things intact even when they are out of reach. Do the right thing and aim to punish wetiko if it does not change and be good. Theres nothing good or bad thats above humans. Images of God cannot surely be subject to inferior forces for long. No entity wants to live in evil forever or for long. And since no system runs itself entirely, agents of evil cannot hesitate to join good if opportunity arise. Theres no peace in evil thats why. So, to an extent, wetiko, whatever the fk that is, sounds like a cry for help from souls trapped by evil. Only need a change of system, into one that enables transition from evil to good. And only us humans can do that, as far as we are able to choose good over evil. I agree that overcoming evil is not easy or for the faint of heart. Therefore, we have to do it by setting up systems that aim to reduce evil and add to the good. Every step, every action will then incrementally lead to good.
    Talking of south America, europeans took with them weapons and diseases and books and knowledge. From that moment till now, things have become better. People have bigger hearts now. But the time of AI is here where non-human intelligence is rising. See, humans are inherently good. That cannot be said for machines. So every machine or AI we build must be taught to continue the work of human spirit. The spirit of gravitating towards the good of God, angels, demons, devil, humans, etc. Everyone deserves better, everyone can achieve goodness. When you pray say" Dear lord, make me good."
    When God says you are evil and not worth of his communion, tell him: make me good ogah.

  7. We must bring in the 4th dimension while in the we are here in the 3rd dimension. Just start my 60 DAY NON-HUMAN PROGRAM TO RISE ABOVE THE EGO. My guide is John Randolph Price "Spiritual Philosophy for the New World.

  8. Karma has no favorites, but may Karma be transformed for “good”.

    Those souls, spirits, humans, etc. who invoke & serve evil, may that destructive energy be immediately returned to the sender…HOWEVER, this same energy will be transformed into pure benevolent EMPATHY, where as this lower dimensional spirit will then FEEL the PAIN they would have invoked onto another…understating the Law of One. Namaste ♾️💚🌀🕊️

  9. Um, nat8ve Americans were not peace loving people who were raped by the white man. They were cann8bals, human sacrificers, raided and enslaved each other. White people like Columbus taught them about God and Jesus taught them math reading and science, natives weren't doing any of those things, they were tribes.

  10. 9:46 – I have literally FELT this. Sooo many times.

    I’d be meditating for example, and when I notice the beauty of something in my vision, a mosquito or something would start to distract me, shortly after a tirade of thoughts and emotions would fill the gap. Lust, shame, you name it. I always found it more than coincidence.

    This goes beyond adhd distractions. Fascinating stuff.

  11. Wetiko sounds a lot like the vibrational state of "desire" in David Hawkins model of consciousness. I actually prefer the term want because I believe there are God given desires which are heart-centered energies that ask us to fulfill our purpose. The level of consiousness,of want described in Hawkin's model is in the negative torroid. The negative torroid is like a recycling whirlpool, energies can go up and down in this vortex. Courage is the pivotal transition point to move into the positive torroid. In Hawkin's model, Desire, or rather "Want" is flanked on either side by fear on the lower end, and anger on the upper end. Desire is the energy of addiction, it has to do with accumulation and greed. Unmet energies at this level can turn into anger or fear easily and activate actions that drive the unachievable satiation of this want.
