What are You standing On (?) · Zaran the Gardener, planting seeds of & nourishing our Soul with mindfulness

• 0:03
  Speaker: All good people.
• 0:05
  Speaker: I wish it was.
• 0:07
  Speaker: We have the propensity to be, the inclination to be good people.
• 0:14
  Speaker: It is our habit as a social creature, animal Homo sapiens, to be sociable.
• 0:22
  Speaker: We need a male and female relationship just to survive.
• 0:30
  Speaker: And we have been doing so as Homo sapiens, science says for 300,000 years.
• 0:38
  Speaker: And prior to this, as different degrees of evolution, life did not begin on the shores with us popping out of some kind of a large nut and a human being being born.
• 0:55
  Speaker: It was a slow and gradual process, beginning in the mother of life, which is the sea.
• 1:03
  Speaker: Millions of years.
• 1:06
  Speaker: Evolving, the sea itself.
• 1:09
  Speaker: Billions of years ago.
• 1:12
  Speaker: Today too.
• 1:14
  Speaker: Today there's a dash of microplastics.
• 1:17
  Speaker: This is our beginning.
• 1:20
  Speaker: Under the sea.
• 1:22
  Speaker: When you go to the beach and you put your feet in the water, remember from whence we have come.
• 1:30
  Speaker: Being humble is a bonus for one's personality to help make one more allowing and open-minded.
• 1:43
  Speaker: It is not something that stands alone and without reason and purpose.
• 1:49
  Speaker: It contributes to one's capacity, one's curiosity, motivation, receptivity to allow oneself to see more clearly.
• 2:02
  Speaker: Oh, why am I doing this this way?
• 2:05
  Speaker: Why am I reacting rather than responding?
• 2:10
  Speaker: How can I improve?
• 2:12
  Speaker: This is mindful meditation.
• 2:15
  Speaker: You need not go through twenty minutes of warm-up.
• 2:20
  Speaker: Being here now as a bundle of miracles.
• 2:26
  Speaker: Literally millions of years old.
• 2:31
  Speaker: Okay.
• 2:33
  Speaker: How do you want to look at that?
• 2:35
  Speaker: Somebody says that to you.
• 2:37
  Speaker: How old is the software in our DNA?
• 2:40
  Speaker: Millions of years.
• 2:43
  Speaker: How old is the skin and the bones and the muscles and the eyes and the ears and the tongue?
• 2:49
  Speaker: Still millions of years.
• 2:52
  Speaker: What is it one is feeling that is so young?
• 2:57
  Speaker: One's consciousness, one's personality we've developed through the span of our years?
• 3:05
  Speaker: Okay.
• 3:06
  Speaker: Realistic, acceptable.
• 3:08
  Speaker: And yet, what is this a part of?
• 3:11
  Speaker: The things we've just mentioned.
• 3:14
  Speaker: What are our capabilities if we only perceive one thousandth of one percent of the energies oscillations of / in our universe?
• 3:31
  Speaker: Science says this.
• 3:32
  Speaker: One thousandth of one percent.
• 3:37
  Speaker: Do you think maybe there are connections between everything?
• 3:47
  Speaker: Of course there are.
• 3:49
  Speaker: We are of the what?
• 3:51
  Speaker: Primal energy of creation.
• 3:54
  Speaker: When we speak of compounds and elements being created, combinations being evolved, what are the foundational building blocks?
• 4:06
  Speaker: The building block.
• 4:08
  Speaker: It's energy, it's what's come into being.
• 4:11
  Speaker: It is beneath all things.
• 4:14
  Speaker: When we drill down and look, we find.
• 4:16
  Speaker: Is there not an ambiance of communication in this eternal buzzing of energy?
• 4:27
  Speaker: Of course.
• 4:28
  Speaker: And through one's software's development, one's multi-generational lifespan into the millions, do you think there's not a communication going on?
• 4:45
  Speaker: How does your heart beat when you are unobservant to it?
• 4:50
  Speaker: Your lungs open and compress.
• 4:54
  Speaker: Your thoughts.
• 4:56
  Speaker: What do you think is going on in these moments?
• 5:02
  Speaker: This is your past, this is your software, this is your being projecting itself into one's consciousness.
• 5:12
  Speaker: Remembering when one is walking out the door and maybe putting the key into the lock to secure your premises, and then all of a sudden something comes up in your mind, wells up, that you have forgotten you wanted to take care of a chore.
• 5:27
  Speaker: And you open the door and grab this article or whatever and off you go.
• 5:34
  Speaker: Where does this come from?
• 5:36
  Speaker: It comes from your mind.
• 5:40
  Speaker: It comes from your being.
• 5:44
  Speaker: It comes from one's DNA.
• 5:47
  Speaker: We all know that we are made of one cell, an egg and a sperm joined together.
• 5:55
  Speaker: Two halves making a whole.
• 5:57
  Speaker: One.
• 5:58
  Speaker: In nine months it becomes one trillion cells, one thousand billion cells.
• 6:06
  Speaker: In nine months.
• 6:09
  Speaker: And through the balance of one's days, an additional thirty-six trillion cells are added to this structure, this edifice of being a Homo sapien, a creature of muscles, sinews, bones, fats, all kinds of different things.
• 6:29
  Speaker: All divisable and breaking downable into the primal energy of creation.
• 6:39
  Speaker: We are bundles of miracles, humbled by this immensity we're in.
• 6:52
  Speaker: How far can we see?
• 6:55
  Speaker: How far does the new James Webb telescope see into the distances more galaxies! As if it were endless.
• 7:06
  Speaker: Humble.
• 7:10
  Speaker: Thankful to be alive, to be able to share a life, to have an aspiration to be more, to be more aware.
• 7:27
  Speaker: Maybe instead of one thousandth of one percent, maybe we can look to learn to be at one hundredth of one percent, ten times more than we are today.
• 7:42
  Speaker: How do we accomplish this?
• 7:45
  Speaker: By being aware, by being awake, by tantalizing our curiosity, our sense of creativity, more being receptive to what is already here.
• 8:04
  Speaker: This when we discover things, it's not like they're new.
• 8:08
  Speaker: The concept seven hundred years ago of the world being flat, all of a sudden becoming round, is just a part of evolution.
• 8:21
  Speaker: It is gaining ground and wisdom through experience, through consideration, to mindfulness, and that's what this is mindful meditation, growing, flowing awareness, vitalizing tools, remembering in oneself how to do this.
• 8:50
  Speaker: How do we flow?
• 8:51
  Speaker: We leave, let's say, a period of prayer or a meditation, and we say to ourselves, that was nice, but where am I now?
• 9:04
  Speaker: You are still here in this universe.
• 9:07
  Speaker: Your perspective has changed.
• 9:09
  Speaker: So in three moments, one, two, three, our perspective changes again, flowing with our perspective, our awareness, allowing our Selves to be
• 9:20
  Speaker: We are here now, bundles of miracles, humbled by the immensity of creation, even inside our own beings.
• 9:32
  Speaker: Thankful for realization, know thyself, per Socrates, to thine own self be true, Shakespeare.
• 9:50
  Speaker: Whatever words you use in "one's" own heart creating the same sense.
• 9:58
  Speaker: Now, flow.
• 10:01
  Speaker: Practice, increased energy.
• 10:06
  Speaker: Awareness, of energies already possessed.
• 10:11
  Speaker: We already know paying more attention to glow.
• 10:17
  Speaker: For surely the warmth emanating from one's body is glowing.
• 10:23
  Speaker: We all know this already.
• 10:25
  Speaker: Infrared.
• 10:26
  Speaker: Glowing, being aware.
• 10:29
  Speaker: This is it.
• 10:31
  Speaker: Just being aware of thyself.
• 10:34
  Speaker: Know thyself.
• 10:37
  Speaker: It is here.
• 10:39
  Speaker: It is you and I multi-tasking and forgetting these things, who are not.
• 10:45
  Speaker: What other marvels do we possess, if we know so little now?
• 10:52
  Speaker: To thine own self be true.
• 10:57
  Speaker: The music goes on for another minute.
• 11:01
  Speaker: Please ponder these things and congratulations.
• 11:06
  Speaker: Flowing all day is our next goal.
• 11:10
  Speaker: To glow in a heightened state of awareness.
