Episode 14: The Potential for Growth in Relationships

Martinus describes marriage and intimate relationships, and, in fact, all relationships, as grindstones that grind away at the imperfections within us and gradually remove them. All relationships thus contain enormous potential for the growth of wisdom, humaneness and neighbourly love. Loneliness, sexual confusion and the changing roles of men and women are seen to be natural stages on the way to evolving from the male and female sex to the third sex: the human sex.

Mary McGovern interviews Sören Grind, a Swedish psychologist who has taught Martinus Cosmology since 1980. Sören is the author of two books in Swedish,  which have been translated into Danish but not English, on what he calls “cosmic psychology”.

Episode 13: Our Eternal Core of Being

Who are we really? What is our innermost, eternal core of being? How does Martinus describe the structure of the living being? In this episode Mary McGovern and Sören Grind talk about Martinus’s analyses of the innermost structure of all living beings, and about how we can understand key concepts such as the I and the superconsciousness. Martinus tells us that all living beings develop talent kernels through various stages, and that those talent kernels are stored as spiritual seeds in the superconsciousness from incarnation to incarnation.

Mary and Sören also reflect on the long journey that all living beings make through eternal spiral cycles, according to Martinus, and how this perspective can give daily life meaning and help us cope with its difficulties.

Mary McGovern and Sören Grind have taught Martinus’s cosmology for many years in Denmark and other countries.

Episode 12: The Downfall of Marriage

Mary McGovern interviews Else Byskov about her most recent book The Downfall of Marriage – The Great Transformation of Our Sexual & Marital Relations, which deals with Martinus’s analyses of the transformation of the sexual poles and the processes that lie behind the changes in our marital relationships. Why do people today find marriage so challenging? Why is the divorce rate so high? And why do so many people live alone? What kind of transformation is it that we see going on in our society? In her book Else hopes to help readers understand how this transformation influences our daily lives.

Else has written and published six books in English about Martinus Cosmology, including Death is an Illusion and The Art of Attraction. Some of her books are also available in Danish, German and Spanish.  See her website: http://newspiritualscience.com/
