Riane Eisler – Exploring Sacred Pleasure: Sex, Myth, and the Politics of the Body

Aired Thursday, December 5, 2019 at 4:00 PM PST / 7:00 PM EST

“Our deepest and most powerful human yearning is for connection – for sex, for love, for all that gives pleasure and meaning to our lives. Yet sexual violence is commonplace, and the ‘war of the sexes’ continues to perpetuate misunderstanding and pain. Why does this struggle persist? What can we do to reclaim our innate power to give and receive pleasure and to find meaning in our lives?”

That short passage was taken from a book published 24 years ago. As has become evident over the past few years, those words have been growing more relevant with each passing year. The book is Sacred Pleasure: Sex, Myth, And the Politics of the Body… New Paths to Power and Love. Its author, cultural historian, social systems scientist, and best-selling author of The Chalice and the Blade, Dr. Riane Eisler, joins Sandie this week to discuss:

* The truths about sex that have been swept under the rug of religious dogma and scientific jargon.
* The sexual myths that have corrupted male/female relationships over the millennia
* How and why domination and violence have been eroticized and even sanctified
* How sexuality is constructed differently in a partnership Vs. dominator
* And, most important of all, how we can construct a society in which the unfolding of our higher selves through physical and spiritual union can be socially supported instead of distorted and repressed.

RIANE EISLER is a social systems scientist, cultural historian, and attorney whose research, writing, and speaking has transformed the lives of people worldwide. She is President of the Center for Partnership Studies (CPS) and Editor-in-Chief of the Interdisciplinary Journal of Partnership Studies.

A refugee from Nazi Europe as a child, she has addressed the UN General Assembly, the US Department of State and Congressional Briefings, and authored over 500 articles published in outlets including The Christian Science Monitor, Human Rights Quarterly, and International Journal of Women’s Studies. Her book The Chalice and The Blade: Our History, Our Future is an international bestseller.

Since 1994 James D’Angelo, author of The Healing Power of the Human Voice and Seed Sounds for Tuning the Chakras, has been leading his Soundspirit workshops and courses in the UK and the USA, empowering people to use their voices therapeutically for self-transformation. Considered a leading authority in the field of sound healing, he has developed his own unique approach to toning and re-tuning the chakra system in which both external and internal vocal sounds are intoned. He provides his participants with a variety of rituals for attaining true sound health including natural sound rituals, Taoist sounds for the organs, Biosonic tuning forks and discovering your fundamental tone. Join Voice Master Kara Johnstad and author, musician, composer James D’Angelo for a conversation on how the vibrations of the human voice applied consciously can create harmony and wholeness of body, mind and spirit. Learn about the bio-energetic field of the body and that we are a great network of frequency and vibrations that fluctuate. When these vibrations become weakened and get out of tune, disease can be the result. Through the focused resonant use of VOICE we have the capacity to alter our vibrations and our state of consciousness to create a sound healthy body.

How do you get past the invisible block that is preventing you from taking action?

You’re finally seeing the full picture, you understand what you want and need to do but grrrr there’s doubt. Why is this doubt creeping in?

Doubt kills taking action and when there’s no action there’s no change.

We are here to help you find your path to CERTAINTY.

Clarity is the first step then we must proceed with certainty to move confidently towards our goals.

Noemi Grace will be channeling the message filled with guidance from Source as we ask and discuss what’s needed to experience our dreams.

You are ready to move beyond CLARITY, you are ready to express CERTAINTY through your actions and it’s time to be CONSISTENT to experience the desired CHANGE.

Jacque Fresco – A World Worth Imagining

Aired Tuesday, December 3, 2019 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST

Interview with Futurist Roxanne Meadows, Co-Founder of the Venus Project with Jacque Fresco

“I was a futurist in a past life.” — Swami Beyondananda

If you remember the Zeitgeist movie from a dozen years ago, then the name “Jacque Fresco” will seem familiar to you. Fresco – who was featured in the documentary — was a visionary futurist and designer dedicated to a “peaceful and sustainable global civilization”. Fresco died in 2017 at the age of 101, and his “work of heart”, the Venus Project lives on, the subject of a new documentary film, A World Worth Imagining: Jacque Fresco The Man With the Plan. https://www.thevenusproject.com/

We are pleased to welcome as our guest on Wiki Politiki this week, Jacque Fresco’s partner and co-founder of the Venus Project, Roxanne Meadows. With Fresco, Ms. Meadows has also been featured in radio, television, documentaries, and film festivals. She has been interviewed or featured in Futurism.com, Bloomberg, New York Times, Huffington Post, Houston Chronicle, Miami Herald, Philadelphia Tribune, The Times of India, Herald de Paris, Horizon, BBC Two, Now this Future, GQ Italy and much more.

As a futurist presenting the aims of The Venus Project, Ms. Meadows, along with Mr. Fresco, has presented at conferences and seminars throughout the United States and in 27 countries around the world. Starting in 1985, Ms. Meadows supplied architectural renderings, models and design work to major developers and architects throughout the U.S. As president and founder of Architectural Arts Inc., her clients have included: Disney Development Corp., Trump Towers Tampa, The Lutgert Companies, Westinghouse Communities, and Santiesteban & Associates Architects. Ms. Meadows is well-known for her accomplishments in scale model production work, scientific, technical, medical, and architectural illustrations, as well as architectural design. She taught technical and fine arts and has worked as a professional computer animator. In pursuit of other interests, she is also a licensed private pilot.

As you will learn in this interview, Jacque Fresco was more than a visionary designer – he had a vision for the world where the Golden Rule overrules the rule of gold. Roxanne continues his work, and if you’re curious how the Venus Project can supersede the “martial plan” that currently dominates economics, please tune in this Tuesday, December 3rd at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET. http://omtimes.com/iom/shows/wiki-politiki-radio-show/
