Transcript:

"Everyone in their right mind knows that there’s a million ways of doing things wrong. There’s one way, if you’re lucky, to do things right.

And so the notion that it’s a very, very narrow pathway that you tread up if you’re doing things right.

That’s the line between chaos and order that you’re supposed to be on, constantly. It’s a very, very thin line.

If you’re a little bit too far in one direction, then it’s too much chaos, and if you're a little too far in the other direction, then it’s too much order. Both of those aren’t good.

The balance has to be exactly right. You can feel that. I truly believe you can feel that, and I think it’s your deepest instinct. I mean that biologically; I don’t mean that metaphorically.

I think that your psyche is arranged to exist in a cosmos that’s composed of chaos and order. I think that’s why you have the hemispheric structure that you have. This is deeper than metaphor.

When you feel as if you’re meaningfully engaged in the world, when the terror of your mortality strips away, when you’re engaged, and it’s timeless, that’s the deepest instinct that you have, telling you that you’re in the right place at the right time.

And then what you do is practice being there.

That narrow spot that’s so difficult to find—you wander around it.

Maybe, if you’re lucky, you can watch. This is an experiment. Watch yourself for two weeks like you don’t know who you are, because you don’t.

Notice that there’s gonna be times when things array properly for you.

It’s not easy to notice, because, when they’re arrayed like that, you’re so engaged that you don’t exactly notice.
But you’ll say, I’m in the right place. How did I get here? What am I doing right? How is it that this could happen more often?

I’d like this to happen more often. How would I have to conduct myself for that to happen more often? And then you practice that.

Maybe, instead of 10 minutes a month or 10 minutes a week, it’s like 15 minutes a day,

...and then it’s half an hour a day,

...and then it’s an hour a day,

...and then it’s four hours a day.

And then, maybe, if you’re extraordinarily careful, you get to a point where you’re like that a good proportion of the time.

That’s wisdom."

More of this is going to be happening when your connected to the source, not just happy, your going to love it. Why? It’s like the pieces of the puzzle just float together.

Thanks for honoring freedom of speech.

Do you believe that when the Catholics and Protestants were at war (torturing and killing each other) for over thirty years over the subject of who Jesus loved ... knew that they were doing wrong ... or ... right?

[lauremacca]

The piano is too loud. I can’t hear your voice.

[junevandermark]

Thanks for honoring freedom of speech.

I suggest that had Jesus lived ... he would have said "Do things right ... and that means stop preaching that I supported a Catholic or a Protestant way of believing ... when you should know full well that as a Jewish Rabbi ... I would have stayed faithful to the religion of my birth ... which was Judaism ... where I was said to be born perfect."

And the other way has too much distracting piano noise
