What's on Offer, Freedom or Slavery? The Battle for Your Mind and Soul

Show Notes

In this interview, Dr. Joanna Kujawa discusses her new book, “Alien Goddess: UFOs, AI, and the Goddesses of Ascension,” deploying Jungian archetypes, ancient myth, Gnostic tradition, and initiatory ideas to frame the current choice between technological evolution and spiritual development.

As she frames it, the choice facing humanity right now is this: Do we eschew our spiritual traditions to instead evolve technologically, as transhumanists would apparently prefer.

Kujawa argues that the technological option represents a synthetic, archontic kind of evil. She sees the UFO phenomenon as representing both sides in this battle for the human soul: hardware bait to drive us forward technologically, and celestial beings reminding us of our connections to the divine.

Through the use of ancient myths like Inanna, Demeter/Persephone, and Pistis Sophia, Kujawa demonstrates how the archetypal spiritual journey of descent and ascent are as available now as they’ve ever been.
