Integrity & Access to Divine Intelligence with Thomas Meyer

I used to live in a first-world country. If I picked up the phone and made a call, it went through. If someone said they would come by to pick up a package by noon, I could count on it. If a stranger came to my house, they had a social or civil purpose—something other than picking up extra cash by turning me in for a regulatory violation or reporting on my personal habits to someone who slipped them money on the digital smartphone. If I bought a package of meat or fish in the supermarket, I did not worry about whether it was real and whether or not it was safe to eat. If I went outside to ride my bike or go for a jog, I did not have to give up and come back indoors because the spraying of heavy metals was so heavy that I couldn’t exercise without coughing. Nor was I required to pretend such things were not happening to maintain my social standing.

For reasons that we cover regularly on The Solari Report, most of us are swimming in a sea of environmental, legal, regulatory, and cultural pollution. Seeking integrity demands greater dependency on others to understand and deal with the explosion of new technology and social engineering around us—maintaining a high learning metabolism is time-consuming. It is easy to become frustrated and let our own standards slip—to acculturate to a debasement of standards.

Integrity is its own reward. If we do our best to maintain integrity in our individual dealings and to limit our dealings to people and institutions that do their best to maintain integrity, it increases our ability to access divine intelligence. Integrity is a pathway through which we can access a much greater power—one that hypermaterialists and the lawless rarely acknowledge or access. It is a power that we need—and one that is ever more delightful to access in these circumstances.

Thomas Meyer and I discussed these issues in our last interview on the Story of Gideon. This included a discussion of the “Midianite” phenomenon—something we are watching with the Epstein affair, the suiciding of New York policemen, and mob wars breaking out across the planet.

I was in Basel for a week with Thomas—what a privilege this was! Thomas took time out from his busy schedule publishing The Present Age, leading his fascinating circles and salons and lecturing around the world (just back from Finland, headed to China) to speak with me about integrity. How do we nurture our integrity and that of those around us? The rewards of maintaining integrity—both competency and ethics—are significant.

I always leave my discussions with Thomas refreshed and restored.
