Transcript

But without meeting ourselves where we currently are,

There's just no way that we're gonna go forward and find the clarity that we need on our path.

So if you want to experience this,

You will need to discover the part of yourself that is truly the most important part of you.

And that is the clarity that we need on our path.

That is truly committed to the path.

And it's easy to say,

Oh yeah,

Yeah,

I'm committed,

I'm committed.

That's why I got the ticket.

That's why I'm here.

That's why I do these things.

That's why this and that.

But there's still so much room for us to fool ourselves along the journey.

And so it takes daily reminders.

That's why meditation is not a come in and sit down when you want.

It's this is my practice.

I'm taking ownership of my mind and my body.

The past has already happened.

And the future is unknown.

So it's really a nobody-to-be-in-the- present on how to show up and how to hold ourselves accountable.

It is the only place that you really truly are,

Even when you are caught up with the monkey mind.

The only place that you can be is now.

When you are thinking about your own life,

You are thinking about your own life.

You are thinking about your own life.

The only place that you can be is now.

When you are thinking about the future,

What's going to happen tomorrow,

You're still now.

When you're thinking about the past and what happened,

What that person said to you,

You're still right here now.

But you have been transported,

You've transported yourself to another dimension.

And it's very,

Very easy to get caught up in.

The best thing about life is there is only this moment.

This moment is the beginning of everything.

We put so much pressure upon ourselves because we're taking all this information almost constantly,

Especially nowadays with phones and the internet,

Apps,

Everything calling for attention.

So when times get tough and things start to feel overwhelming,

How calming and comforting it can be to remind ourselves that there is only this moment.

Everything starts from this moment.

Never any other moment.

The chaos is everything outside of this moment and outside of your understanding.

But in this present moment,

Your consciousness is ripe and it's ready to fruit if you allow it to flow with creation.

So how do we get out of the way of ourselves?

How do we get out of our own mess to be here,

Right here,

Nowhere else?

Because this is the only place that you can make a difference.

You're not going to make a difference thinking about the future.

You're not going to make a difference concerning yourself with the past.

To live fully,

What we all aspire to,

What we all are craving by our very nature,

The way our cells operate,

The way the cosmos work,

It's all about expansion.

It's all about going from a state of chaos into some sort of geometric order in life.

So to live fully,

You do not know what the next moment will be and that exhilarates you.

It instills a profound sense of responsibility in you,

An aspiration for the gift of life because you've got it.

You've got it now.

The gift of life is in you.

Making everything turn,

Making everything work right now.

That is an incredible opportunity because you are human,

Because you have consciousness,

Because you have the ability to choose what you're going to do with your life today.

You have the ability to also choose what to be involved with,

What to be associated with,

And what to accept as you.

If it crushes you,

If the experience of life crushes you,

Then fear creeps in and solidifies your assumptions that you have made to build a safety bubble around yourself.

People so often think control or power means dominating another.

But it's not.

That is a trap.

What we can do is within our ability to transform this world.

What we can surrender to is what we can become empowered by.

You do not need a safety bubble.

What you need,

Especially if you want to walk the spiritual path,

Is clarity.

And you need tools in order to work through life's challenges.

If you work towards this,

You will naturally be fulfilled in life and blossom like a beautiful sweet flower.

If you're on the path and you want to go somewhere,

You need to be able to see where you're going.

Otherwise,

You might wind up off the path and going a different way that you didn't even realize you were going down because things are not clear at the moment.

So clarity is definitely the most important thing that we must start with if we want to start working with these raw materials and to be able to embrace and befriend the chaos of life.

Your most beautiful tomorrow only comes when you lose the fear over what may happen.

Trying to control the future or changing the past will only lead to mental constipation and emotional misery.

The most beautiful tomorrow only comes when you lose fear over what may happen.

The most beautiful tomorrow only comes when you lose the fear over what may happen.

The most beautiful tomorrow only comes when you lose the fear over what may happen.

The most beautiful tomorrow only comes when you lose the fear over what may happen.
