• 0:02
  and feeling a calling to share a message today sending love
• 0:08
  from the heart to all
• 0:10
  people all beings and just personally really deeply feeling
• 0:15
  today how we are
• 0:17
  feeding an entire generation or multiple generations to the
• 0:22
  algorithm when I look
• 0:24
  at my generation the Millennials when I look at Gen Z and the
• 0:28
  generation coming
• 0:29
  SPEAKER_00: after there's
• 0:33
  Just countless quantities of people that are spending
• 0:37
  astronomical amounts of time
• 0:40
  SPEAKER_00: squandering all their life force energy on bullshit.
• 0:46
  SPEAKER_00: I say that as much as possible without condemnation.
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_00: I'm just trying to be direct.
• 0:55
  SPEAKER_00: I also see the innocence of it.
• 0:57
  I see that we're in this technologically saturated environment
• 1:03
  surrounded by
• 1:03
  SPEAKER_00: supernormal stimuli.
• 1:06
  SPEAKER_00: And it's very difficult to cut the heads off the snakes,
• 1:10
  decapitate the energetic vampires and recenter our attention on
• 1:14
  what truly matters.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_00: But it's really heartbreaking in a deep sense to see
• 1:21
  SPEAKER_00: Countless men and women who could be serving beautiful causes,
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_00: who could be stepping into leadership,
• 1:32
  SPEAKER_00: who could be giving this world what it's truly calling out for,
• 1:38
  SPEAKER_00: which is love,
• 1:40
  SPEAKER_00: is heart,
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: is real embodied human care,
• 1:44
  SPEAKER_00: grounded men and women who are serving this world.
• 1:50
  SPEAKER_00: helping meet its many challenges,
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_00: helping its many suffering,
• 1:56
  SPEAKER_00: war-torn places and brutalized people and animals.
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_00: And instead,
• 2:04
  we're giving untold quantities of attention and life force
• 2:09
  energy to doom scrolling
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_00: the social media feeds,
• 2:13
  SPEAKER_00: to watching pornography,
• 2:15
  SPEAKER_00: to playing video games,
• 2:16
  SPEAKER_00: to online gambling.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_00: And again,
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_00: I understand it's not easy to unhook from this stuff,
• 2:27
  but just feeling a very clear calling within myself today to
• 2:36
  put out a message and
• 2:39
  SPEAKER_00: a call to arms,
• 2:40
  SPEAKER_00: a call to action for anyone who needs to hear this,
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_00: for anyone who resonates with this in this moment,
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_00: you know,
• 2:48
  SPEAKER_00: This is a precious life.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_00: We're here in this precious, precious world.
• 2:54
  SPEAKER_00: Our children need us.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_00: Our grandchildren need us.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_00: The generations who aren't here yet need us.
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_00: We have an opportunity to pass on a more beautiful world to them.
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_00: And what is the world that we're currently careening toward?
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_00: We're moving toward a world where they're going to live
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_00: inside of a metaverse,
• 3:20
  live inside of a virtual reality simulation that's saturated
• 3:25
  with advertisements
• 3:27
  and supernormal stimuli and entertainment that hooks its
• 3:33
  tentacles into their brain
• 3:35
  SPEAKER_00: and saps their life force and just squanders it on bullshit.
• 3:41
  SPEAKER_00: Because that's what we're already doing to a great extent.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_00: That's what we're already doing.
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_00: The internet,
• 3:49
  which once had so much promise as the repository of all human
• 3:53
  wisdom and knowledge,
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_00: the ultimate self-education tool,
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_00: the ultimate communication tool,
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_00: it's become an absolute wasteland.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_00: It's a wasteland of garbage.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_00: These websites don't have your best interest in mind at all.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_00: They're just maximizing...
• 4:15
  for profit and so they're just trying to make their website as
• 4:18
  addictive as
• 4:19
  possible they're not trying to serve you your life your
• 4:22
  children's lives your
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_00: grandchildren's lives the profit motive the endless greed within the dark
• 4:33
  underbelly of humanity that has literally been encoded into our
• 4:39
  systems and the way
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_00: that our organizations are structured to
• 4:45
  maximize profit to place the profit motive at the top of our
• 4:50
  hierarchy of values
• 4:52
  this is literally encoded into the source code the operating
• 4:58
  system of how our
• 4:59
  civilization is functioning in huge numbers of places and on
• 5:04
  many levels and this
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_00: literally is eating us alive it's absolutely devouring us um
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_00: Countless examples of this could be listed,
• 5:17
  ways in which the profit motive is and has corrupted healthcare
• 5:24
  and governance and
• 5:27
  SPEAKER_00: education and technology and quote-unquote entertainment.
• 5:35
  And I'm not saying that there aren't plenty of good-hearted
• 5:37
  people in these fields
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_00: trying to do good things.
• 5:40
  SPEAKER_00: God bless all of the
• 5:43
  The teachers and the health care professionals and the public
• 5:47
  servants who are
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_00: genuinely endeavoring to serve,
• 5:52
  whose heart is in the right place and who are really trying to
• 5:55
  do right by the
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_00: people and the children.
• 5:58
  SPEAKER_00: I know there's many such people out there.
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_00: And yet still we are.
• 6:04
  absolutely being devoured and there's a there's a call in the
• 6:09
  midst of that there's
• 6:09
  a calling and an opportunity for us to care at a deeper level
• 6:15
  about our own lives
• 6:16
  about our children's lives our grandchildren's lives and the
• 6:19
  lives of all beings on
• 6:21
  this earth all human and non-human creatures on this earth and
• 6:25
  and Gaia herself the
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_00: biosphere itself and to really
• 6:30
  SPEAKER_00: take it upon ourselves to see this era as a training ground for mind,
• 6:36
  SPEAKER_00: body,
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_00: spirit,
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_00: where we cultivate the next level samurai discipline,
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_00: clarity,
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_00: mastery,
• 6:44
  SPEAKER_00: and honor that is needed to decapitate the snakes,
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_00: cut the heads off the energetic vampires,
• 6:51
  SPEAKER_00: close the leaks,
• 6:54
  SPEAKER_00: truly seal all of these energy leaks from
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_00: once and for all,
• 6:59
  all the ways that we're just taking our infinite potential to
• 7:05
  do good and just
• 7:06
  dumping it into a toxic wasteland of addictive bullshit that is
• 7:12
  literally just
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: sucking out our souls,
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_00: corrupting us from the inside out.
• 7:18
  We have an opportunity to take it upon ourselves to say no to
• 7:24
  that,
• 7:25
  to cut that shit off
• 7:28
  cut it out and redirect our attention to what truly matters
• 7:35
  discover within
• 7:36
  ourselves what is our true north star what is the guiding
• 7:41
  principle for our life
• 7:42
  that truly deserves to be placed atop that hierarchy of values
• 7:46
  and then align our
• 7:48
  SPEAKER_00: lives to that and i would suggest that
• 7:52
  SPEAKER_00: nothing short of some kind of sacred or divine principle,
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_00: principle of divine love,
• 7:57
  SPEAKER_00: divine grace,
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_00: in whatever form and by whatever name resonates most deeply with you,
• 8:04
  nothing short of that allows and inspires a human being to
• 8:10
  truly overcome this
• 8:14
  SPEAKER_00: increasingly all-pervasive situation
• 8:17
  thirst trap this all-pervasive deleterious draconian
• 8:22
  environment that is doing
• 8:23
  everything it can to get its hooks in you and its tentacles in
• 8:27
  you and sap and suck
• 8:29
  your life force and just convert your life force into more
• 8:35
  pennies nickels and
• 8:36
  dimes to just siphon to the small number of parasitic entities
• 8:43
  at the top that are
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_00: essentially converting the whole civilization into
• 8:48
  SPEAKER_00: a farm for life force energy.
• 8:53
  What does the great mass of civilization look like at this
• 8:59
  point if not a debt
• 9:02
  SPEAKER_00: enslavement system?
• 9:03
  SPEAKER_00: The average American is $90,000 in debt.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_00: What is that if not a form of slavery where your life has literally been,
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_00: your life force has been given over to someone else
• 9:15
  SPEAKER_00: You are in the red and you now owe your life to someone else.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_00: And you just toil away to try to get out of the red numbers.
• 9:26
  SPEAKER_00: Your existence is in the red.
• 9:29
  And then you just go home after work to just bury yourself in
• 9:36
  more of the bullshit
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_00: with the endless social media,
• 9:39
  SPEAKER_00: the endless Netflix,
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_00: gambling,
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_00: video games,
• 9:41
  SPEAKER_00: porn,
• 9:42
  SPEAKER_00: where they just...
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_00: Whatever money you made from work,
• 9:46
  they're just sucking it out of you as best they can with all of
• 9:49
  these toxic,
• 9:55
  SPEAKER_00: supernormal stimuli and influences.
• 10:01
  SPEAKER_00: It's a sad state of affairs and...
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_00: I'm not saying that's the ultimate way to look at it.
• 10:05
  SPEAKER_00: That's one perspective.
• 10:07
  SPEAKER_00: That's a more dystopian frame on it.
• 10:09
  SPEAKER_00: I think it's important to look at that dystopian perspective.
• 10:13
  SPEAKER_00: From another perspective, we live in a time of great opportunity.
• 10:18
  SPEAKER_00: We live in a time of great prosperity in many ways.
• 10:25
  SPEAKER_00: And many people are living...
• 10:28
  relatively happy and joyful lives at this time and i don't want
• 10:33
  to take that away
• 10:34
  from anybody and you know if you have chosen to be in debt i
• 10:37
  don't want to make you
• 10:38
  feel bad about that it just is what it is and that in itself is
• 10:43
  an invitation to
• 10:44
  just to lock in and do what needs to be done to take yourself
• 10:51
  out of that situation
• 10:52
  SPEAKER_00: pay off the debt don't take on further debt and um yeah build up
• 10:58
  SPEAKER_00: a buffer,
• 10:59
  SPEAKER_00: build up some savings,
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_00: get your financial house in order,
• 11:03
  SPEAKER_00: order your family's financial house.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_00: But for what?
• 11:08
  SPEAKER_00: Be asking yourself, for what?
• 11:12
  Money as an end in itself leads nowhere,
• 11:15
  leads to the hollowing out of the human spirit.
• 11:17
  SPEAKER_00: What do you want money for?
• 11:19
  SPEAKER_00: What do you want nice things for?
• 11:22
  SPEAKER_00: What is that overflow going to
• 11:25
  nurture within you and allow you to birth for this world what
• 11:31
  is it for what's the
• 11:32
  deeper why why are you living what are you doing here what do
• 11:37
  you care about so
• 11:38
  deeply that you are ready to redirect your life force energy
• 11:45
  toward that towards
• 11:47
  something truly worthwhile rather than just giving it endlessly
• 11:52
  to the bullshit
• 11:53
  SPEAKER_00: factory the bullshit machine
• 11:56
  SPEAKER_00: Because it's not going to get any less addictive.
• 11:58
  SPEAKER_00: It's just going to get more addictive.
• 12:00
  So it's time to start training ourselves and our children and
• 12:06
  our families and
• 12:07
  SPEAKER_00: communities with a whole new level of,
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_00: again,
• 12:13
  SPEAKER_00: discipline,
• 12:14
  SPEAKER_00: devotion,
• 12:15
  SPEAKER_00: mastery,
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_00: honor.
• 12:18
  SPEAKER_00: And that's what it takes.
• 12:21
  That's what it takes to unhook from the bullshit and live a
• 12:25
  life that's actually
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_00: worth something.
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_00: Of course,
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_00: all of our lives are inherently precious on a certain level,
• 12:31
  SPEAKER_00: but what are you doing with your short time on earth?
• 12:38
  SPEAKER_00: We don't know what happens when we die.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_00: We don't know if there's more after this.
• 12:42
  SPEAKER_00: This might be it.
• 12:44
  SPEAKER_00: You've been given a few decades of
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe five, six, seven, eight decades if you're lucky.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_00: You never know, death could come tomorrow.
• 12:55
  SPEAKER_00: What are you doing with that time?
• 12:59
  SPEAKER_00: Is it worth it?
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_00: Are you available for what the world is asking of you?
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_00: Are you listening to what this world is asking of us?
• 13:11
  SPEAKER_00: Are you available for that and are you responding?
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm speaking to myself here as well, not claiming to be perfect.
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_00: It's another human being on the path,
• 13:32
  crawling on his hands and knees towards something true and
• 13:35
  something real.
• 13:37
  SPEAKER_00: So hopefully that's helpful for somebody today.
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you for listening.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_00: God bless you.
• 13:48
  SPEAKER_00: Take good care.
• 13:50
  SPEAKER_00: Peace, family.
• 13:51
  SPEAKER_00: Be well out there.
• 13:54
  SPEAKER_00: I love you.
