Spiritual Awakening in the High Middle Ages with Betty J. Kovács (4K Reboot)

Betty J. Kovács, PhD, taught symbolic/mythic language for twenty-five years. She has served as Chair of the Board of Directors of the Jung Society of Claremont, California, and sits on the Academic Advisory Board of Forever Family Foundation. Dr. Kovacs is author of Merchants of Light: The Consciousness That Is Changing the World, winner of The Scientific and Medical Network 2019 Book Prize and a Nautilus Silver Award. She has also written The Miracle of Death: There Is Nothing But Life. Her website is www.kamlak.com.

Here she points out that the High Middle Ages, starting around 1000 AD, represented an awakening from the Dark Ages when Europe was dominated by the repressive policies of the Church. Stories of the Holy Grail inspired Europeans with a new sense of reverence for the feminine and a quest for the spiritual. Building the great cathedrals, full of esoteric symbolism, became the major economic activity of the era.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980).
