- 6:23one,
- 6:23the
- 6:24first
- 6:24letter

- 6:27basically
- 6:28trying
- 6:28to
- 6:29kill
- 6:29people
- 6:29by
- 6:30cold.
- 6:31So
- 6:31in
- 6:32these
- 6:32circumstances,
- 6:34it's
- 6:34quite
- 6:35interesting
- 6:36to
- 6:37speak
- 6:37about
- 6:38psychological
- 6:39weather.
- 6:40We
- 6:40do
- 6:41not
- 6:41relate
- 6:41it
- 6:41that
- 6:42much
- 6:42to
- 6:43the
- 6:43fourth
- 6:44anniversary
- 6:45or,
- 6:45well,
- 6:46how
- 6:46can
- 6:46we
- 6:46say,
- 6:48of
- 6:48the
- 6:49full
- 6:49scale
- 6:50invasion.
- 6:51It's
- 6:51general
- 6:52mood,
- 6:53which
- 6:53is
- 6:54quite
- 6:54challenging.
- 6:55It's
- 6:55very
- 6:56hard.
- 6:56The
- 6:57resilience
- 6:58of
- 6:59people
- 6:59is
- 7:00astonishing.
- 7:01And
- 7:02most
- 7:02people
- 7:03still
- 7:04decide
- 7:05to
- 7:05stay
- 7:06because
- 7:06this
- 7:06is
- 7:06like
- 7:07an
- 7:07act
- 7:07of
- 7:07resistance.
- 7:09So
- 7:09any
- 7:10decision
- 7:11to
- 7:11continue
- 7:12staying
- 7:13of
- 7:14each
- 7:14person
- 7:15in
- 7:15our
- 7:16circles
- 7:16is
- 7:17an
- 7:17act
- 7:17of
- 7:18resilience.
- 7:19So
- 7:19there
- 7:19is,
- 7:20there
- 7:20are
- 7:20people
- 7:21at
- 7:21the
- 7:21front
- 7:22line
- 7:22who
- 7:22suffer
- 7:23much
- 7:23more
- 7:24because
- 7:24they
- 7:25have
- 7:25less
- 7:26access
- 7:26to
- 7:27heating
- 7:27and
- 7:28electricity
- 7:28and
- 7:29water.
- 7:30So
- 7:30understanding
- 7:31that,
- 7:32we
- 7:32consider
- 7:33that
- 7:33we
- 7:33are
- 7:33in
- 7:33perfect
- 7:34circumstances.
- 7:36So
- 7:36there
- 7:36is
- 7:36a
- 7:36lot
- 7:36of
- 7:37gratitude
- 7:37at
- 7:38the
- 7:38same
- 7:38time
- 7:38because
- 7:39people
- 7:39are
- 7:39very
- 7:40cooperative,
- 7:41supportive.
- 7:42The
- 7:43social
- 7:43fabric
- 7:44is
- 7:44very
- 7:44strong.
- 7:46Our
- 7:47heroes
- 7:47on
- 7:48the
- 7:48energetic
- 7:49frontline
- 7:51are.
- 7:51They
- 7:52are
- 7:52receiving
- 7:52a
- 7:52lot,
- 7:53a
- 7:53lot
- 7:53of
- 7:53gratitudes
- 7:54from

- 7:55for
- 7:56whom
- 7:56they
- 7:56work
- 7:57day
- 7:57and
- 7:57night.
- 7:59So
- 7:59I
- 8:00would
- 8:00say
- 8:00that
- 8:01I
- 8:01would
- 8:01never
- 8:02exchange
- 8:04the
- 8:04possibility
- 8:05of

- 12:29not
- 12:29misunderstanding,
- 12:30but
- 12:30this
- 12:31strange
- 12:31doubt.

- 13:26And
- 13:26even
- 13:26that
- 13:27would
- 13:27not

- 13:42why
- 13:42you're
- 13:42sacrificing.
- 13:43And
- 13:43I

- 13:44in
- 13:44a
- 13:44lot
- 13:44of
- 13:44Western
- 13:44countries
- 13:45and

- 14:19we've
- 14:20had
- 14:20a
- 14:20hundred
- 14:20years
- 14:20of
- 14:21psychotherapy
- 14:22and
- 14:22the
- 14:22world's
- 14:23getting
- 14:24worse.
- 14:25And
- 14:26another
- 14:27big
- 14:27concept
- 14:28of
- 14:28this
- 14:29author,
- 14:30James
- 14:30Hillman,
- 14:31is
- 14:31a
- 14:31political
- 14:32self.
- 14:33So
- 14:34the
- 14:34connection
- 14:34between
- 14:35psychotherapy
- 14:36and
- 14:36politics
- 14:37and
- 14:37basically
- 14:38why
- 14:38we're
- 14:39doing
- 14:39so
- 14:39much
- 14:40healing
- 14:40work
- 14:41and
- 14:41spiritual
- 14:42work
- 14:42and
- 14:42psychotherapy,
- 14:43like
- 14:43what
- 14:43for
- 14:44and
- 14:44what
- 14:45is
- 14:45the
- 14:45basis
- 14:46like
- 14:47from
- 14:47which
- 14:47we
- 14:47have
- 14:48to
- 14:48start?
- 14:48And
- 14:49here
- 14:50we
- 14:50think
- 14:51there's.
- 14:51Certain
- 14:51things
- 14:52are
- 14:52very
- 14:53obvious.
- 14:53There
- 14:54is
- 14:54no
- 14:55need
- 14:56for
- 14:56any
- 14:56kind
- 14:57of
- 14:57spiritual
- 14:58work
- 14:59unless
- 15:00you've
- 15:01assured
- 15:01that
- 15:01there
- 15:02is
- 15:02democracy,
- 15:03that
- 15:04there
- 15:04is
- 15:04freedom
- 15:05of
- 15:05speech
- 15:05and
- 15:06freedom
- 15:06of
- 15:07expression.
- 15:08All
- 15:09the
- 15:09rest
- 15:09is
- 15:09bypassing
- 15:11is
- 15:11escapism.
- 15:13I
- 15:14see
- 15:14how
- 15:14in,
- 15:15in
- 15:15super
- 15:16authoritarian
- 15:17regimes
- 15:19people
- 15:19are
- 15:20escaping
- 15:21into
- 15:22spirituality
- 15:23or
- 15:24in
- 15:24some
- 15:24of
- 15:25the
- 15:25regimes
- 15:25that
- 15:26are
- 15:26under
- 15:27big
- 15:27threat,
- 15:28let's
- 15:29not
- 15:29call
- 15:29it
- 15:29regime,
- 15:30but
- 15:30in
- 15:30the
- 15:31political
- 15:31setup
- 15:32that
- 15:32are
- 15:32under
- 15:33big
- 15:33threat
- 15:33of
- 15:34authoritarianism,
- 15:35like
- 15:35in
- 15:35the
- 15:35U.S.
- 15:36unfortunately,
- 15:38people
- 15:40do
- 15:40not
- 15:40know
- 15:41what
- 15:41are
- 15:41the
- 15:42tools,
- 15:43like
- 15:43how
- 15:44to
- 15:44manifest
- 15:45their
- 15:45political
- 15:46self.
- 15:47And
- 15:47because
- 15:48of
- 15:48this
- 15:48helplessness,
- 15:50some
- 15:50of
- 15:50them,
- 15:51they
- 15:51escape
- 15:52into
- 15:52spirituality.
- 15:54And
- 15:54I
- 15:55think
- 15:55that,
- 15:56I
- 15:56personally
- 15:57think,
- 15:57and
- 15:57based
- 15:58on
- 15:58our
- 15:58experience,
- 15:59it's
- 15:59a
- 16:00wrong
- 16:00way.
- 16:01So
- 16:02the
- 16:02best
- 16:03way
- 16:03to
- 16:03practice
- 16:04spirituality
- 16:05is
- 16:05actually
- 16:06human
- 16:07rights
- 16:07assurance
- 16:08and
- 16:09activism
- 16:10and
- 16:11all
- 16:11the
- 16:11rest,
- 16:12like
- 16:12it's
- 16:13coming
- 16:13next,
- 16:13it's
- 16:13secondary.
- 16:14And
- 16:14it's
- 16:15not
- 16:15that
- 16:15we
- 16:15avoid
- 16:16or
- 16:16do
- 16:16not
- 16:16do
- 16:17this
- 16:17or
- 16:17that.
- 16:17Of
- 16:17course
- 16:18it
- 16:18has
- 16:18to
- 16:18be
- 16:19integral.
- 16:20It
- 16:20has
- 16:20to
- 16:20be
- 16:21done
- 16:21simultaneously,
- 16:22ideally
- 16:24what
- 16:24we
- 16:24feel
- 16:25here.
- 16:25And
- 16:25I
- 16:26really
- 16:26don't
- 16:26want
- 16:27to
- 16:27put
- 16:27it
- 16:27in
- 16:27some,
- 16:28you
- 16:28know,
- 16:29in
- 16:29a
- 16:29tone
- 16:30that
- 16:30we
- 16:30know
- 16:30something
- 16:31that
- 16:31others
- 16:31don't
- 16:32know.
- 16:32I
- 16:32believe
- 16:32that
- 16:32anybody
- 16:33in
- 16:33our
- 16:33circumstances
- 16:34will
- 16:34come
- 16:35to
- 16:35the
- 16:35same
- 16:35conclusions
- 16:36and
- 16:36lessons.
- 16:37In
- 16:37our
- 16:38case,
- 16:38it's
- 16:38like
- 16:38karma
- 16:39yoga.
- 16:39Every

- 16:40Every
- 16:40day
- 16:41is
- 16:41a
- 16:41heroic
- 16:42act.
- 16:42I've

- 16:45few
- 16:45days
- 16:46ago,
- 16:47and
- 16:47we
- 16:47didn't
- 16:48have
- 16:48utilities,
- 16:50heating,
- 16:50water,
- 16:51electricity.
- 16:52And
- 16:52I
- 16:53did
- 16:53it.
- 16:53And
- 16:53nobody
- 16:54ran
- 16:55away.
- 16:55And
- 16:56everybody
- 16:56stayed,
- 16:57and
- 16:57everybody
- 16:57stayed
- 16:58focused.
- 16:58And
- 16:58we
- 16:58shared
- 16:59coffee
- 17:00from
- 17:01the
- 17:01pots
- 17:01that
- 17:02were
- 17:02brought
- 17:02by
- 17:02people
- 17:03who
- 17:03had
- 17:03electricity.
- 17:05And
- 17:05we
- 17:05ate
- 17:06well
- 17:06and
- 17:06we
- 17:06enjoyed
- 17:07each
- 17:07other.
- 17:07And
- 17:07we
- 17:08learned.
- 17:08It
- 17:08was
- 17:09a
- 17:09productive
- 17:09learning
- 17:10process
- 17:10because
- 17:11people
- 17:11at
- 17:11the
- 17:12same
- 17:12time
- 17:12are
- 17:13very
- 17:13keen
- 17:13about
- 17:14learning
- 17:15and
- 17:15growing.
- 17:16Of
- 17:16course,
- 17:16when
- 17:17the
- 17:17like
- 17:18very
- 17:18basic
- 17:18hygienical
- 17:20needs,
- 17:20like
- 17:21at

- 17:21It's
- 17:22not
- 17:22too
- 17:22cold,
- 17:23that's
- 17:24really
- 17:24important.
- 17:25But
- 17:25we
- 17:25managed
- 17:26to
- 17:26solve
- 17:26it.
- 17:27So
- 17:27I
- 17:27really
- 17:28would
- 17:28like
- 17:28to
- 17:29draw
- 17:29attention

- 34:37for
- 34:37example.
- 34:39So
- 34:39the
- 34:40society
- 34:40is
- 34:41reacting
- 34:41in
- 34:41a
- 34:42quite
- 34:42interesting

- 34:44there
- 34:45are
- 34:45veterans
- 34:46in

- 34:52is
- 34:52very
- 34:53low.
- 34:54Well,
- 34:54that's
- 34:55the
- 34:55idea
- 34:55behind

- 35:01freedom
- 35:02of
- 35:02the
- 35:02state.
- 35:02That's
- 35:03why
- 35:03Americans
- 35:04constitutionally
- 35:05have
- 35:05the
- 35:05right
- 35:05to

- 35:11sound
- 35:11that
- 35:11positive,
- 35:12the
