My guest today is Bruce Parry, an English documentarian, film-maker, author, trek leader and Royal Marines commando officer. Bruce rose to prominence for the various series he did for the BBC, most notably ‘Tribe’ and ‘Amazon’, in which Bruce explored extreme environments, lived with remote indigenous peoples and highlighted many of the important issues being faced on the environmental frontline. Although brought up in a devoutly Christian environment, Bruce’s extensive exposure to indigenous tribes opened his spiritual horizons. He now describes himself as a born again Rational Animist delighting in the mysteries of Being.
Spirituality and the meaning of the Sacred is something we get into in the podcast, but the main focus for the conversation is the theme of egalitarian societies, and re-connecting with our deep ancestral wisdom – because, contrary to popular belief, humans have not always been patriarchal and hierarchical.
