  Speaker 1: Ego earth guide only. This is the part of us
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: that says who I am is separate from you, and
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: therefore I'm in competition with and my value is based
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: upon the value of my possessions and so on. What
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: is mine? It is that individual lower level of awareness. Also,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: in each and every one of us, there's another person.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: And this sacred or higher self really doesn't care how
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: much you get. It doesn't care who you're better than,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: it doesn't care how much stuff you have. It's not
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: interested in any of that. This higher or sacred part
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: of us wants only one thing. It wants us to
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: be at peace. There are many ways to get the
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: things that we want for ourselves in our lives, but
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: basically it all begins with how we choose to think.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: You cannot manifest what you want into your life if
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: your attention is not what they want for you, or
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: what they tell you are your limitations, or what you
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: can do. You cannot manifest what you want if your
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: attention is on what is as you think. So shall
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: you be this old proverb notion that I become what
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: I think about all day long. And once you know
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: that what you think about is what expands you start
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: getting real careful about what you think about. You don't
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: allow your thoughts to be on anything that you don't
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: want or that you wouldn't want to have manifest or
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: show up for you in your life. The ancestor to
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: every action is a thought, each and every one of us.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: We have this power. We have conditioned ourselves. You have
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: allowed yourself to become that. One of the things that
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: we believe and hang on to and live with is
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: this whole idea that all of the things that happened
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: to me in my past are what are keeping me
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: from doing what I'd like to do today. Many of
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: us bond ourselves to these wounds of our past. If
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: I were to cut my hand, there's something, there's a
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: healing stream that I am connected to that will allow
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: that wound to heal. So my nature says, close up
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: the wounds, and oftentimes we ignore our nature. Impossible. Oh good,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I have lost?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: I am the perfect being?
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Am I? Not? A lot of people think that other
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: things make them the way they are. They'll blame somebody
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: for things that are going wrong in their life. Your
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: anger is your choice, and you can always choose to
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: be angry, depressed, upset, or you can choose to be
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: fulfilled and to do something positive in this moment. It's
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: always up to you. When you get beyond just knowing
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: yourself as this body and this personality and this thing
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: that you inhabit, and begin to realize that who you
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: are is that which was never born and can never die,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: and you recognize your eternal self. It's really about recognizing
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: the power, the energy, the capacity. There are higher levels
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: of awareness that are available to us, a level of
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: awareness that allows us to do things like to manage
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: the coincidences of our lives, to be able to place
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: our attention on what it is that we would like
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: to create for ourselves in our lives, to literally have
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the power to know that if I think about it
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: and I keep it there, and I keep that picture
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: firm within me, that there is an energy, a source,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: a capacity within me that is in the universe and
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: that is also in me, and that I can use
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: this energy, that I can manage it. And what we
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: have to do in order to get to that place
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: where we can take the keys and unlock the self
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: imposed prisons or the prisons that we have given ourselves
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: on the basis of what we have come to believe
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: is our limitations, what we can and can't do. We
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: have to let go of that, rewriting our agreement with reality.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: We literally have to make a whole new contract with
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: what it is that I perceive to be what is
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: possible for me. We have to shift out of the
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: things that we have come to believe in. And everything
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: that you believe in was handed to you by someone
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: else outside of you, by the experiences or testimony of
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: someone in the past, and because it comes from outside
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: of you, there is still an element of doubt that
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: keeps you from reaching higher levels because what you think
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: about is what expands, and if you're thinking doubt, then
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: doubt is what expands. Now there's a big difference between
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: what you believe and what you know. I can do
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: all the scientific studies. I can find the command center
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: inside of me. I can go to the brain and
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I can point to a specific point, and scientists can
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: do this and say there's the command center which allows
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: you to have a thought. But there's no computer, and
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: there's no scientists, and there's no technology that can ever
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: allow us to go inside and say, there's the commander
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: in the command center, and that commander in the command center.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: That weightlessness is the part of us that we just
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: don't pay enough attention to. Once you start becoming aware
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: of the power of thought, and if you look around,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: just look around you at everything that you see. It
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: all began with a thought. We become what we think about,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: and that is probably one of the most important principles
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: in learning to manifest. An orange is a simple metaphor.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: You take this orange and you squeeze it as hard
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: as you can squeeze it, and you ask yourself, what
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: will come out? Never, no matter how many times you
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: squeeze it, well, apples you come out. Why Why wouldn't
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: you squeeze an orange as hard as you can squeeze it?
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Does orange juice come out? The reason that orange juice
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: comes out when you squeeze is because that's what's inside. Now,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: you extend the metaphor and someone squeezes you, someone says
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: something about you that you don't like. Someone behaves towards
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: you in a way that you find offensive. Somebody does
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: something or says something to you that you feel hurt by,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: and out of you comes anger, hatred, bitterness, tension, fear, anxiety, stress,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: And immediately you say the reason that comes out of
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: me is because of how he said her or the
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: way that she said that, or because they did that.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: But the truth is, the reality is that what comes
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: out is what's inside, and if you don't like what inside,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: you can change it. The quality of your human experience
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: is really much more dependent upon how you use this
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: invisible intelligence and how you connect to this energy. And
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: once you have an awareness that you can never be
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: separate from it, that you and it and whatever you
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: call it, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: call it a divine presence, if you call it soul,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: if you call it spirit, if you call it consciousness,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. What we have come to believe is
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: our limitations, what we can and can't do. We have
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: to let go of that what you really want you
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: will get it. The bad news is that what you really.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Don't want.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: You will also get. And this is one of the
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: most difficult things for people to understand. If your attention
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: is on what is and the circumstances of.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Your life, that's where your thoughts are, then you will
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: continue to create what is into your life.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: You cannot manifest what you want. If your attention is
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: on what always has been. This is the way things are.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: You'll hear people say it to you all the time.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: These are the circumstances of life.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: Don't you want?
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: This is reality?
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Wake up?
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: If you keep your attention on what always has been,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: then what always has been is what you'll continue to
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: manifest as you think. So shall you be?
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: These aren't empty words.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: This is reality. And every time your thoughts are on
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: what is, you shift it to what do I want?
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I have never believed that we need to be putting
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: the responsibility on someone else. Don't tell anybody else about
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: what you want to manifest.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Don't make it a big statement.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: Instead, keep it to yourself. It's the present moment thoughts
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: that I have and how I am using them that
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: is making my life go in this direction, and nothing more.
