This essay is a follow up to The Problem of Psychopathy Part II, which asked the question: Are psychopaths made by their environment, or are they born that way?
This is a vital question because psychopathic personalities disrupt groups, organizations, and even nations. I don’t personally know the people behind the drugs that are inundating our cities and killing over 100,000 people every year, but I’d bet they are psychopaths.
This can be said for every social ill the country is currently suffering from. Like the scorpion who kills the frog that carries him across the river, it is the nature of the psychopath to cause harm to others. This occurs because psychopaths care little for the consequences of their actions. Anti-social personalities cannot see beyond the limitations of Self (See diagram 2 below).
“[A psychopath is] a person with a personality disorder indicated by a pattern oflying, cunning, manipulating, glibness, exploiting, heedlessness, arrogance, delusions of grandeur, sexual promiscuity, low self-control, disregard for morality, lack of acceptance of responsibility, callousness, and lack of empathy and remorse. Such an individual may be especially prone toviolent and criminal offenses.”
— American Heritage dictionary
This definition is all-encompassing, describing just about every evil there is.
Psychopaths are at most 4% or 5% of the population, according to a 2021 study. Robert D. Hare, who wrote the book on psychopaths, Without Conscience, says that they are only 1% of the population.
Yet their influence is massive.
The psychopath sees little else on the dynamics of life but Self.

Psychopathic personalities present a serious, but unrecognized, social issue. “Evil triumphs because good men do nothing” aptly describes the problem of psychopathy. Our society is rife with fraud, abuse, criminality, and violence, the purview of the psychopath. Yet “cracking down” or even criticizing persons with harmful and anti-social characteristics is termed “discrimination” or “intolerance” or “fascism” in today’s politics.
If a society is unable to defend itself from anti-social personalities, it will surely crumble.
Criticizing those who criticize harmful behavior is itself a characteristic of the psychopath. It is a way for the psychopath to deflect his or her tendency toward cruelty and harm onto others.
When psychopaths control the narratives of society, a curious and destructive phenomenon occurs: the words and actions of anti-social personalities are what cannot be discussed or criticized. When psychopaths rail and retaliate against those who point out their antisocial activities, we say we are over the target. For example, those who criticize drag queens who expose their genitals in public places in front of children are called “homophobic” (and much worse) by psychopaths.
What appears to be a social “movement” can really be what Mathias Desmet calls “mass formation psychosis.”
Adolf Hitler speaks at a rally in Nazi Germany. 10,000 people attend. 95% are there to listen. A very few percent are supporters. The speaker uses powerful language to inflame the crowd’s emotions. The key operative is one psychopath: Hitler, who decided the fate of an entire nation, and changed the world for the worse.
J.K. Rowling is one of the most successful authors in history. She has been relentlessly attacked for defending women and stating that sex is real – something that a five-year-old understands. She has had rape threats and death threats. Institutions she funded have organized campaigns to remove her name. Actors from her own film adaptations have publicly denounced her – simply for having an opinion. This has happened to other influencers in a similar way. Who is behind these efforts? More than likely, a few psychopaths. It’s what they do.
Treating a psychopath as just a normal citizen exposes society to their destructive nature. However, for countries founded on the principle that all are created equal, targeting them is a violation of civil liberties. Adding to the problem is the difficulty of even identifying a psychopath. These personalities can be very glib and charming, and know how to insinuate themselves into groups and organizations.
And so, generation after generation, conflict and contention continue. Caused by the very few.
The Bigger Picture View of Psychopathy
There may be a simple, purely environmental explanation for psychopathy: Parents who themselves were abused, abuse their children and they in turn become anti-social personalities. However, this does not explain why severely abused girls like Cathy O’Brien (Trance-Formation of America), Susan Ford aka Brice Taylor (Thanks for the Memories), Juliette Engel (Sparky), and Sue Arrigo (I Spent 20 Years as a CIA Sex Slave) did not become anti-social. Each found a way to re-integrate their personalities and become helpful to others.
A purely environmental explanation for psychopathy cannot account for their recovery.
There is a common denominator for all four of these MKUtra-ed women. All shared a deep spirituality or faith to sustain them while they were being tortured and mind controlled, and afterward as they sought recovery. All of them say they accessed non-corporeal beings (guardian angels, if you will) who guided and comforted them.
In our ruthless secular society, angels and non-physical personalities are regarded as delusions, and the people who claim to speak with them as nutjobs. Nevertheless, there are times when life–threatening situations put a physical being in contact with non–physical energy. Such claims may be assigned to an overactive imagination, but I prefer to take a person at his word. The incident described below occurred on July 18, 2004.
“NEW YORK (AP) Dale Earnhardt Jr. has trouble remembering those frantic seconds when he escaped from his burning racecar. He believes, however, that his late father figured in his survival.
I don’t want to put some weird, you know, psycho twist on it like he was pulling me out or anything, but he had a lot to do with me getting out of that car,” the NASCAR star said. “From the movement I made to unbuckle my belt to lying on the stretcher, I have no idea what happened.”
Earnhardt recalled that perilous July day in Sonoma, Calif., during an interview with correspondent Mike Wallace for 60 Minutes that will be broadcast Wednesday on CBS.
Earnhardt’s father was killed three years ago during the final lap of the Daytona 500. The son insists he felt his father’s presence on the day when he scrambled out of his flaming car and was left with second-degree burns on his legs, neck and chin. In fact, he said, when he reached safety, he began inquiring about the “person” who helped him from the car.
Earnhardt told 60 Minutes he grabbed one of his representatives by the collar, “screaming at him to find the guy that pulled me out of the car. He was like, ‘Nobody helped you get out,’ and I was like, ‘That’s strange be-cause I swear somebody … had me underneath … my arms and was carrying me out of the car.”’
Wallace asks whether that was his father.
“Yeah, I don’t know,” Earnhardt said. “You tell me. It … freaks me out today just talking about it. It just gives me chills.”
Neal Donald Walsh, author of Conversations With God, hit rock bottom and then discovered his connection to non-physical consciousness, as have many others.
A personal note
I understand communication with the non-physical because I have personal experience with it. For several years before he died in 2005, my father and I would have phone conversations every Saturday morning (I live in Michigan, he was in California). Like many father-son relationships, my dad and I got along best when separated by a lot of distance! Imagine my surprise when, during my daily walk, I felt him with me just a couple of days after his death. It was like he never really died at all; we just continued a well-established activity. The feeling of it was… astonishing and incredible. I began to ask him questions about life that we often discussed during our phone conversations. But these conversations were even deeper than before. Every day, for about a half-hour – the duration of my walk – we’d “talk” about life, the universe, and everything. When I got home I would write down these conversations, which lasted for about two weeks. Eventually I put them into a little book I titled I Love You Dad.
This experience taught me that you don’t have to be in life threatening situations to contact people close to you, and that yes, the origin of consciousness is non-physical.
A similar situation occurred in 1954, after my mother died of leukemia at the age of 28. When I toddled up to the coffin and saw her body, I didn’t see anything unusual, but I felt her presence. She told me that she wasn’t really dead; that a person continues after the body dies. That experience, at the age of three, generated in me a lifelong interest in spirituality and the nature of consciousness.
Inspired by Neale Donald Walsh, at the turn of the millennium I wrote a book titled Dialogues: Conversations with My Higher Self. In this book I asked all of the esoteric questions religion was never able to answer to my satisfaction. The answers I received came from…I called it the Higher Self (see Figure 3 below).
Even though I’m certain about everything I write regarding spirituality, I can’t prove any of it. This is frustrating for me because I’m a practical guy who wants scientific proof for my claims. But I know I’m not going to get it. I’m well aware that I’m a 4-Sigma oddity; someone who is way out of the mainstream. That is why I wrote a math/geometry textbook about three-dimensional solids titled A Geometric Analysis of the Platonic Solids and other Semi-Regular Polyhedra. I did this to show that I’m not an airhead, and have the capacity for rational thought.
Incarnation and Karma
I’m boring on about spirituality and consciousness because, to fully account for psychopathy (or any intractable human problem), we must engage with the spiritual system on earth, and the quintessential nature of a human being. In a previous essay, we went over an alternative explanation for what a human being is: a meld between a physical body and a non-corporeal conscious personality that survives the body’s death. (See Figure 3 below.)
The non-physical personality, through all physical lifetimes, experiences continuous, unbroken self-awareness. Where the being “goes” after death is not important to me. Some call it the between-lives area, some call it Heaven, some call it a return to universal or cosmic consciousness.
I call it Native State, which refers to consciousness in its native, non-corporeal state. By Native State I mean that the physical reality is a sort of dream state, a sophisticated illusion, and the true reality is the non-physical state of expanded consciousness.
Figure 3
The solid black bar represents the unbroken, continuous nature of consciousness. No matter the number of births and deaths, self-awareness never ceases. From the perspective of the physical being, the large star-like object (representing the complete non-physical personality) is the “higher self.”
Is the inherent nature of consciousness benign, or can it be anti-social?
The literature is pretty much in agreement that when a person has a near-death experience, they experience a deep and profound feeling of love and serenity, often accompanied by an out-of-body experience. It is unlikely, in my view, that a being experiencing expanded consciousness could be psychopathic!
The antisocial personality must be associated only with earth and a physical lifetime.
We know karma exists. A sane spiritual system must hold mass murderers like Stalin or Hitler responsible for the consequences of their actions, even if it is in another lifetime!
The Las Vegas model of karma
There must be a way to preserve the benign inherent nature of non-physical consciousness with the punishment – or responsibility – for one’s actions on earth. The Las Vegas model works well: “What happens on earth stays on earth.”
We discussed this briefly in an earlier article.
It allows for free will in the physical lifetime, yet preserves the unsullied and pure nature of the soul. When a being leaves the physical (“death”) it deposits the entire record of its life, both good and bad, in the karmic filing system of earth. Some call this “storage” area the Akashic Record. After this spiritual data dump, the being returns to Native State, pure and unsullied, where it can review the lifetime and prepare for the next one. When the being is ready for another lifetime, it enters pure but must pick up the burden (or joy) of the record of its previous lifetimes. In this way a continuous recording of its earth experiences is preserved, as well as any karma it might have accumulated.
If the being continues, lifetime after lifetime, to be predominately negative, it will be oriented to the physical lifetime as an antisocial personality.
So the answer to the question, “Can a human being be born a psychopath?” is a qualified yes. The soul/Higher Self is always pure, but the physical expressions of that soul can come in with some baggage. If the person decides to go with the negative karma, lifetime after lifetime, he or she gradually descends in awareness of the dynamics of life until he or she can only see Self (See Figure 2 above).
Curing psychopaths?
Would a psychopath respond to a teaching that they are divine beings and that their consciousness continues after death of the body? I doubt it. The psychopathic personality is not aware of any area of life beyond Self and would laugh at such a suggestion. Moreover, the psychopath sees any kind of therapy as a pointless form of intrusion.
Perhaps it might work if they were taught this from birth. But given the secularism that dominates society at this time, the percentage of parents who believe this is very slim.
Imprisoning psychopaths (the Dick Cheney’s of the world) may be necessary to remove them from society – absent an effective therapy, which does not exist at this time.
Educating psychopaths – except, perhaps, at a very early age – is probably a losing battle.
Conclusions from this series of articles
Mankind has been dealing with the disastrous effects of psychopathy for millennia. It is deeply embedded in the historical record, the human psyche, and in the spiritual system on earth.
A ray of hope is the rapid evolution in human consciousness that is now in full swing. As a matter of course, this evolution is also causing the current social chaos as 8 billion human beings work out their collective karma on the Gameboard of Earth. This process will, I believe, eventually result in a state of higher human consciousness. And it should also resolve the problem of psychopathy. If the collective human karma finally gets resolved, the conditions that make psychopathic personalities will no longer exist. Consciousness evolution is “a rising tide lifts all boats” solution to psychopathy.
While we are waiting for this miracle, what can be done to protect society from this embedded psychic sickness?
Individuals, for their own safety and peace of mind, should gain the ability to recognize the psychopathic personalities among us. Once recognition occurs we can stop enabling psychopaths, and respond firmly and appropriately to their words and actions.
Suggested Reading
Susan Ford aka Brice Taylor. Thanks for the Memories
This book describes the actions of psychopaths in the United States at the highest levels. A first-hand account.
Warning: If you read this book you will never look at the world in the same way. The ultimate red pill.
You might ask, “Why bother to read books like this? Stay in the Light, stay positive.” I used to believe that focusing on the positive and ignoring the negative is the way through, because what you focus on you get more of. For me, that turned out to be a form of avoidance. To release karma and attain peace it is necessary to confront the dark side and understand the duality, both positive and negative.
If you want to clean out the filthy garage you have to confront the mess and get a little dirty in the process. But the reward is worth the effort.
