The problem with serving any false god is that eventually, the person worshipping it collapses, as does the god that they're worshipping.
Have you ever wondered why Western society seems to be teetering on the edge of collapse? In this compelling episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein takes a hard look at the false idols that many people worship today and how they contribute to societal decay. He starts by discussing the obsession with self-love in its most toxic form—where ego and illusion reign supreme.
Drawing from the ancient Greek myth of Narcissus, Yitz illustrates how this kind of self-obsession can be destructive not just on a personal level but for entire societies. He goes on to identify the modern 'false gods' of appearance, sex, popularity, money, and power. These are the things many people chase, often at the expense of their own dignity and well-being.
Yitz argues that this pursuit is a form of idolatry that leads to a societal collapse, much like what happened to the ancient Greeks, Babylonians, and other civilizations that lost their way. Throughout the episode, Yitz emphasizes the need for god-consciousness and aligning oneself with truth. He points out that only societies rooted in these principles can endure. He wraps up with an inspiring message about tapping into one's true source and becoming the healthiest, most authentic version of oneself.
This episode is a thought-provoking reflection on modern culture's pitfalls and offers a roadmap for personal and societal transformation.
