Transcript
I'm Justin Michael Williams and welcome to the kingdom.
This is Spiritual Church for everybody.
We begin each session with a prayer.
Drop into that space that you know,
The sacred space where it's just you talking to the divine.
God,
Spirit,
Universe,
All that is,
All that ever has been,
And all that ever will be,
We thank you.
Thank you for bringing our brother Alonzo into our lives,
Into my life,
Into all of our lives.
Thank you for the gift of his voice and for him gracing us with all these different dimensions of his voice as he guides us through today's prayer.
Thank you for leading us.
Thank you for showing us the way.
Thank you for reminding us that even when we get off track,
Things are always on time and on schedule.
Thank you for constantly leading us toward healing.
Thank you for keeping us and reminding us that no matter what happens,
No matter what state the world is in,
No matter what is going on in our personal lives,
That we are okay and we will always be okay.
Always.
As Justin always says,
Now is the time to take your personal prayer.
One minute.
We'll be silent for about a minute,
So just welcome in your own prayer.
You have more?
God Spirit universe,
All that is,
All that ever has been and all that ever will be,
We thank you.
Thank you for bringing us into this space where we can know,
As Alonzo said,
That we are okay and may we each get the exact message that we're meant to hear today.
So it is,
Ashe,
Aho,
Salam,
Amen,
Shalom,
Sat Nam,
Awen Om.
Thank you.
Now Alonzo's gonna sing us a song to welcome us into our space.
I'm just gonna do something quick and it's acapella.
Little Whitney.
Little Whitney today?
How about a Little Whitney?
Oh my God.
Okay,
Great.
I believe in you and me.
No actually,
How about this Whitney song?
Oh wow,
We're getting the switch up.
I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadow.
If I fail,
If I succeed,
At least I'll live visibly.
No matter what they take from me,
They can't take away our dignity.
Because the greatest love of all is happening to me and in me.
All right,
We'll leave it at that.
No,
Please keep going.
The greatest love of all is happening inside of me.
Oh my gosh.
I don't wanna scream,
Bro.
Okay.
Amen,
MT.
Love you.
Take a moment to just take that in like a prayer.
That's how it felt for me.
What a gift you are to this planet.
Your voice is a gift.
You're the gift.
That was so beautiful,
Alonzo.
Thank you.
Love you guys.
The greatest love of all.
I'm gonna call you back soon,
So just get ready.
The greatest love of all.
Wow.
Just take a second to let that resonate inside of you.
And just feel the greatest love,
The love that is awakening within you.
The love that is happening inside of you,
Whether it's been bruised and battered or hurt or marred with distrust,
Skepticism.
It always is blossoming open like a blade of grass pressing through cement,
Constantly reaching for the light.
The love is always there.
No matter how much hurt,
No matter how much pain,
The love is always there,
Ready to press through when we say yes.
So what is the love that is opening up inside of you?
In what ways and toward what is love beckoning itself forward through and inside of you?
In what ways is love looking to be in action through and within you?
And how might we place our faith inside of that love,
The greatest love of all?
What's happening within you?
What do you love so much that no amount of pain can ever take that love away?
And just let it be there.
Breathe into it.
Let it fill you up and crack you open if it needs to,
Like a coconut just,
The juices are right there inside,
The juice of life right there in your heart.
And so here we are.
Here we are.
Thank you for that,
Alonzo.
Thank you.
Hey,
Trey,
We see you here,
Trey.
It's so good to have you here.
Everybody's saying Alonzo,
Everybody is here.
Whitney lives on and Alonzo,
Beautiful,
Beautiful.
Yes.
My favorite song.
You got tears.
Thank you,
Brother.
All the things.
Thank you guys for typing in the quotes because sometimes I don't even know what is being said through me.
I'm sure you know.
And so I'm hearing it with you sometimes.
And that was one of those moments.
And so I appreciate you typing in those things.
So Alonzo actually inspired me with what I'm going to do on today's session because I haven't done this in a long time.
And some of you were never here when I did this the last time.
So this might be your first time and hi Sabine.
And today's session is one of my favorite things to do.
And it is on what I call the power of questions.
So some of you might feel some of this being a little bit familiar.
But you'll see what comes after this.
And for those of you who it's familiar with,
I want you to listen very closely to see what opens inside of you as I talk about this with you.
So there are different kinds of questions that we can ask.
And I think one of the sayings and I say this inside of stay woke on page like one something I don't remember anymore is this whole concept that people say there's no such thing as a dumb question.
Have you all heard that before?
There's no such thing as a dumb question.
There are lots of dumb questions.
That's what I really believe.
Truly there are so many dumb questions.
And oftentimes if we ask those questions,
We go based on the thing I remember my grandmother always saying,
Asking you shall receive,
Seeking you shall find.
And so it's incredibly important then in our asking of questions that we're asking high quality question.
And you can remember that one of the things that we do here at the kingdom,
For those of you who are new or haven't done this in a while is if you hear me say something and you want to put your little amen hands up or any hands up,
You put your hands up in the chat box like this,
Or you can put the number one a whole bunch of times.
If you don't have the hand emojis and the ones are just putting our ones up and this is how we'll continue to resonate with each other.
I see you,
Wendy.
And so what's happening here is when we talk about questions and high quality questions,
I've always really distinguished these in two different ways.
So we have low quality questions and we have high quality questions.
Low quality questions usually not always.
I remember none of these are like set in stone,
But you can feel the energy of the question.
So low quality questions usually begin with why.
Not always.
Sometimes why.
And high quality questions often begin with how.
Sometimes what's in there.
What I tend to see falls on like the low quality often,
But really more than it is the start of the question.
It's about the content of the question and the quality of the question.
So when we look at high quality questions,
The big difference is low quality questions.
Even if you found the answer to them,
Those questions,
The answers would only lead you to more excuses.
The answers,
Even if you found them,
Would not lead you to a place of action or a place of most importantly,
Being able to take responsibility for your life to move you in the direction that you want to go.
Low quality questions don't allow you to do that.
High quality questions,
If you found the answer,
The reason we kind of shy away from them sometimes,
When we ask a high quality question,
Then once we get the high quality question and we get that answered,
Then we have to do something.
Then we have to point the finger back inside of the one thing that we can control,
Which is our life and the actions that we need to take.
And so some examples of high quality and low quality questions.
I'll just give you an example.
Is a low quality question,
I'll just flip them back and forth.
A low quality question could be,
Well actually Alonzo,
Give me a question about something.
Give me a low quality question.
You know this teaching.
Give me a low quality question.
I'm going to flip it.
Why don't I have a significant other?
Okay,
So here's a big one that a lot of people have.
Okay.
So what I found out about Alonzo's was why don't I have a significant other?
Why don't I?
Okay.
Now if we flip that into a high quality question,
The high quality question would say,
How can I find a significant other who matches me and meets me exactly where I want to be met at this time?
How can I meet a significant other that enhances my life,
Not distracts me from it?
How can I?
Right?
Because if you found the answer to why you don't,
What you got?
You've got another reason to feel bad for yourself.
Well,
I don't because I'm so busy.
I don't because I'm so focused on my business.
I don't because X,
Y,
Z.
How can I?
Now you have something to do and the do maybe around your level of being.
I see Kalani has one.
Why is the world so fucked up?
That's just the way it is,
Right?
We could say so many things because the president,
Because of this,
Because of that,
Because of whatever,
Because the government,
Because whatever we want to say,
Right?
The economy,
War.
Then instead you can ask,
How can I do something that could make this world a little less fucked up?
How can I do something specific that could make this world a better place?
Do you see the difference in the orientation of these questions and the answers that come out of it?
Ask and you shall receive,
Seek and you shall find.
What are you looking for?
Because oftentimes when we are asking low quality questions,
We're really looking,
We're looking for something that's just going to give us more excuses so that we can stay in the circle that we're in so we don't have to get out of our comfort zone,
So we don't have to get out of whatever the routine it is that we're in that we're actually not really that happy in,
But we're comfortably numb in or comfortable enough in.
But I know that each one of you is here because you're wanting to break in to the next level and the next frontier of your own life.
So I see Magdalena has questions here.
Magdalena says,
Justin,
You know my question and I know your question is about world peace,
Magdalena.
I'm just going to guess.
Is how can we change the platform from a militaristic bias for profit system to a platform for peace upon which we can build our kingdoms?
Is beautiful.
And so the question Magdalena becomes in every moment,
How can I do that now in this moment?
Not waiting for this perfect future to arise.
Right?
So here's what we're going to do.
I am going to give you all a moment to put your hands over your heart and close your eyes.
Take a full breath in and a full breath out.
And I want you to don't even ask a question yet.
Just think about an area of your own life.
I want you to go inward towards your own life right now.
Any area where you feel like you need a little additional support,
Guidance,
Clarity.
It could be about your work.
It could be about your finances.
It can be about relationships.
It can be about family.
It can be about boundaries.
It can be about creativity and art.
It can be about your spiritual practices.
It could be about your body,
Your self-love.
Or it can just be about knowledge,
Something you want to learn more about as it relates to personal growth.
And now I want you to formulate a low quality question in your mind as it relates to this domain in your life.
You might notice that whatever the low quality is,
One is one you may have been asking already over and over.
And now once you have the low quality version,
I want you to think of the high quality version and see if you can flip it in your mind.
Once you have the high quality question,
Take a deep breath in and a deep breath out.
Open your eyes.
And here's what I'm going to do.
If you have any question,
But we're going to make it high quality,
I'm going to make you share a low quality and a high quality version.
I'm not going to make you do anything,
But I'm going to ask you to.
And this is an opportunity for our kingdom to come on and be heard and for us to ask the questions.
If you're somebody who right now is thinking,
I have a question,
But I'm nervous or I don't really know if this question is appropriate for everybody or I don't really want to waste time or there's something I know I want to say it,
But I'm not really sure if I should say it.
You're the person who needs to be up here.
Okay,
So I'm going to have Alonzo come here first and then we're going to have Allison and then Magdalena and anybody else who has a question about anything,
Anything you've been wanting to ask.
So this is questions.
Any question for Justin moment,
Barbie is coming.
Hello,
Barbie.
Barbie,
You're in the green room too.
So I'll invite all of you on in just a moment.
And for now,
And if anybody else wants to come up,
It might be full,
But as I remove people,
You'll have more chances.
We're going to spend about 20 or 30 minutes doing some Q and A.
What are you,
What is your question?
Well,
First of all,
What is it about?
It is about freeing my mind.
Freeing your mind.
Yes.
And the low quality question is why am I so hard on myself?
Okay.
Do you guys feel the energy of that question?
Right?
Why am I so hard on myself?
So even if you got the answer to that,
You might find some things to work with,
But those would just lead you to more questions.
Let's go to what the high quality version of that would be.
It would be how can I allow my mind to accept me more freely?
Okay.
So I want you guys to give me some edits to Alonzo's question.
How can I,
I'm actually going to bring some of you on right now.
Did you all hear Alonzo's question?
Okay.
So can you ask it again for everybody?
The second,
The high quality version.
How can I allow my mind to accept me more freely?
Okay.
What do you both feel about that question?
Allison,
You can go first.
Okay.
So I think it's a really good question,
But it's a little bit,
It's like it has two steps to it.
So I'm trying to think how it could go in just one step.
Like,
So instead of how can I allow my mind,
Just like,
How can I accept myself fully or something like that?
This is good,
Allison.
What do you think,
Carrie?
What came up for me was how can I be curious about the why I'm so hard on myself when,
You know,
I know it's easy for someone from an outsider's perspective to see the glamour and the,
And the incredibleness of you,
Alonzo.
And it's just,
How can I allow myself to see me how others see me?
I love these beautiful questions.
These reframe.
I think that's a good way of saying it,
But if you want me to make a little suggestion,
How can I allow myself to feel wonderful as the divine grace flows through me?
These are all really beautiful.
So every single one of these is right.
And because there's so many ways in,
Right?
And it becomes for me when I'm doing these questions in my head,
And I do this to myself all the time,
And I'll tell you all,
One of the tricks that I do is I actually will write it down and I'll draw like a little arrow and I'll say,
What will the answer to this question give me?
Because that's like,
You almost want to trace backwards,
Right?
Ask and you shall receive.
So what do I want to receive?
Right?
Like seeking you shall find.
So what do I want to get from this question?
And in the same way that I think about it with manifesting,
I often work backwards in my questions when I'm,
Especially when I'm asking them in like prayer or meditation or keeping them down.
So I'll give you a couple angles.
So every single one of these is right.
It just depends what you want to find.
Well,
Really.
So I'll just ask you,
What is it that you want to find?
I want to find freedom,
Like mental freedom.
And what's really the reason why it's been so like on my mind is because I've been reading that book.
Shauna.
Yeah.
It's an amazing book.
Good morning.
I love you by Shauna Shapiro.
I'm going to have her on the kingdom very soon.
You all.
And the things that I read recently,
Like life is not a simple thing.
And so for me,
I've been asking myself like,
Instead of constantly pursuing life,
Like what's wrong with me and how do I fix that?
What do I do?
And constantly trying to fix everything that's wrong with me.
It's like,
How do I be free from thinking that so much is wrong with me?
Yeah.
So this is what I'll offer.
Okay.
And again,
It's with no corrections to other things.
It's another way.
So oftentimes when we go,
When we think about a low quality question and a high quality question,
We oftentimes flip ourselves from shadow to light.
We go from,
How can I stop being hard on myself to how can I be free?
Right.
Or like,
How can I,
We,
So we flip,
We actually change what's in the content of the question altogether and flip all the way over to how do I just be more good and more light?
And so,
But that for me,
Doesn't solve the question of what happens when you're hard on yourself.
Right.
And so like,
I,
A question that you might ask,
If you stay,
If you keep the focus on like what's the problem?
The problem is I'm hard on myself.
And so,
And,
And I'm hard on myself and I get in my head and I get stuck and I beat myself up about these things and that's gonna happen.
Right.
So if you,
Even if you see yourself as more light and more free,
Guess what?
You're still going to be hard on yourself and you're still going to beat yourself up.
Right.
So,
Cause we all do.
It's the human condition.
So my question is,
How can I,
Or I'll give you,
So this is where the rule kind of changes,
Right?
So like,
What are some specific tools that I can use the next time that I'm hard on myself that can break me through it and help me find what I'm supposed to learn from it.
Right.
So when we're being hard on ourself,
There's something inside of there.
That's like,
Yeah,
That is needing healing,
Whether it's the little boy,
Whether it's the,
There's so many things that it can be right.
Whether it's,
There's something trying to emerge,
Whether that's fear.
So when I'm being hard on myself next,
How can I do something that will help me move through that in a way that opens me up to greater freedom?
Yeah.
Right.
So it's,
I just want you guys to be conscious of,
We don't want to like spiritually bypass the hard stuff,
Right?
How can I be more free?
How can I be more liberated?
How can I be more joyful?
But how can I go in to the shadow to actually find what I need to find there in a way that doesn't break me down,
But breaks me through.
Ooh,
Breaks me down.
Is that helpful?
Beautiful.
Magdalena,
I love it.
I'm with you,
Magdalena.
This is,
This is,
I am right with you.
This is the work,
Right?
And so just be careful when you're asking your questions because we,
We really do have this tendency to go,
The way that I look at it is this and,
And all these things are good.
Again,
None of your questions or your adjustments were wrong.
They're all great questions.
But like Mary Theresa is just saying,
Like the spiritual,
The spiritual bypassing is the equivalent of,
I have an eating disorder.
I don't currently have an eating disorder.
I had an eating disorder.
I'm recovered from an eating disorder.
I would say recovered mostly and no,
Mostly is a weak word.
I'm very recovered from eating disorder just to make sure that's very clear.
But sometimes it's still in my mind,
Right?
I have like the dysmorphia,
But it was the equivalent of me having an eating disorder at a time and then just somebody telling me to say,
Stand in the mirror and say,
You're beautiful.
Right?
Or just looking in the mirror and saying,
How can I see myself as more beautiful?
Well,
How's that going to help when I have my finger down my throat?
Do you know what I mean?
That's where I actually need the support is when that moment is happening.
So Alison,
Talk to me about what's going on from Ontario.
Okay.
Well,
I've had a chance to think about this for a few minutes now,
So I can give you my very low quality question and then one version of high quality.
So the question I tend to beat myself up about a lot is why am I not being an activist?
You know,
Like why haven't I changed the world yet?
And so I was thinking one way to reframe that could be,
What is one thing I can do each day to make the world better?
But I have to honestly say I don't really like that question,
So I would love some feedback.
So okay,
Let's get this very clear again.
So tell me what it is you're trying to find.
I'm trying to find out how to be effective in the world and actually change it to be more of the world that I want it to be.
Not just by being nice to my next door neighbor,
But by actually making changes that are bigger than that.
Bigger.
And by bigger,
What is the bigger?
I'm already nice to my next door neighbor.
What happens to the bigness?
What is it about the bigness you're looking for?
I guess because I tend to get stuck by the fact that everything seems so systemic and I feel powerless.
The piece that I really want to honor in Allison's question is there's a desire for a wider spread.
So this is where,
And this is a level up for you and I'll give you like maybe just because this is what I'm hearing in my head,
But like,
So I'll just give it to you because I think the question is very simple of like,
How do I make a wider spread impact beyond just me and one individual?
And if you ask that very specifically,
It almost goes,
There's many ways,
But one way that's coming to me is you could possibly teach people about how to do what you do.
Because literally,
Even with the liberation experience and the work that I'm doing with that project with Shelley and the 40 day program and all of it,
If I'm the only one teaching it,
It doesn't matter if I get as big as Oprah.
It's still insignificant in terms of the impact that it could make in the world at large.
But if I am empowering other people to lead from the heart space that I have learned over all these years and the place that you've learned over all your years,
If you're empowering other people to lead from that space,
Maybe taking on a few mentors or something like that and empowering them with actions,
Now your ripple just goes,
Every day instead of 10 people,
It's 50 and then it grows from there.
And then they're mentoring people.
So it doesn't even have to be,
It could be that if you want to do it very officially and start an online thing and train people,
Or start a group in your city,
Or as much as taking on a handful of mentors.
These are a few people that I see in the community who are doing amazing work and I just want to meet with them once a month and support them and share my stories with them and make sure that they have all the support that they need.
Give them guidance and advice once a month,
Once a week,
Talk to them,
Whatever it is.
Now the ripple is spreading and you can take on as many of those as possible as you need.
And I think some more ideas will come from that space.
That's just one idea.
There's many that can come inside of that question.
It's definitely helpful.
Yeah.
And I can sort of see little places where that could start to have,
Gives me a lot to think about anyway.
I mean,
In a good way.
So yeah.
Beautiful.
I think you're right on track in the question.
And I think what I'll give you the opportunity to just give yourself permission to do,
I'm not giving yourself the opportunity to give yourself permission.
You can always give yourself permission,
But I will offer up the suggestion,
Which is when you have a little idea,
Because when you ask the question,
We often will get an answer and then we'll go,
I'm not sure if that's the answer.
I'm not sure if that's the right answer.
Let me just wait and see if I get another answer.
Is that the answer?
I wonder if that's the answer.
Oh,
I don't know.
This doesn't feel like the answer.
We kind of go in circles.
When you get a little answer,
Try it.
It's like a taste test.
And you'll be like,
Oh yeah,
I actually like that.
Let's have some more.
And so this is kind of the exploring versus thinking whatever the answer is that comes like has to be the final life decision of all time.
It's like,
Take a little bite.
When I started The Kingdom,
I did not,
Like I said,
No,
My team was like,
How long do you want to do this?
Maybe it's 10 weeks or maybe it's this.
I said,
I don't know.
I've never done this.
We're going to try it.
I'm committing for a month and let's see what happens.
That's literally where I was when I started The Kingdom.
I was like,
I'm going to commit till I leave Esalen.
Let's see what happens.
And like here we are a year later,
Weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks.
And so I didn't know.
I just knew that I had the idea.
I said,
How can I,
My question with The Kingdom really at Esalen was this,
How can I create something that allows with all the negative shit happening in the world right now,
How can I create something that's a space of positivity and coming together that brings people together across divides and allows people who are spiritual,
But not necessarily subscribed to a religion,
A space to just come together and be and pray.
It was like,
So it's okay,
I'm going to just in that.
And then we just find our way.
You know,
And this happens if I would have tried to make the whole business plan for The Kingdom,
This would still be a plan and we would not be here together right now.
Thank you.
Okay.
So Magdalena,
Talk to me about your question.
Well,
The question is why do people think that peace is so foolish and why do I feel more heartbroken by people that say that,
Yeah,
They do want it,
But nobody's prepared to do anything.
This,
What is a high quality version to ask this?
How can we come together across our big divides and our little divides and to realize that peace is necessary?
Magdalena can you,
Can you close your eyes and put your hands over your heart for a second for me?
And take a deep breath in and a deep breath out.
And you've heard me do incomplete sentences before yet.
Yes.
Okay.
So I'm going to do a few with you.
Can I open my eyes or keep them shut?
If you're okay keeping them shut for just a moment,
I'd prefer that.
But if you need to open them,
You're welcome to.
I'm yours to suggest.
Okay.
Yeah.
Keep them close for just a moment.
Just drop into your heart.
The peace within myself is available.
Especially now.
Even when?
And provoked.
And what provokes me the most is?
Other people's pain.
And what I want to offer them is?
World peace.
And what I feel,
And what I feel,
And what I feel about the people who think peace is not possible is?
It's only not possible if you won't let it.
It's possible if we let it.
It's in each of us.
It's in each of us.
And the reason why I imagine they think that it's not possible is?
Because of other people who are dangerous and not considering that they might be dangerous themselves.
My biggest fear is?
That I will just die and that I will,
Well the idea will continue,
But my biggest fear is that we won't make it.
We won't make it.
And soon it will be impossible even to talk this way.
Because peace has always been a subversive idea.
And I want you to go back to that thought that you jumped away from.
Just to feel it in your heart.
The thought of I might die and?
And well,
The idea will go underground again for a long time.
But what I know to be true about this idea is?
We're ready for it.
We need it.
It is possible.
If we want it and we are willing to work for it,
It's just the only way that we can carry on as a species.
It will solve so many of our problems.
And the first step that I think I need to take right now is?
Thank you for this opportunity.
And the first step that I might take to help expand world peace in each individual is?
To get the kingdom,
To get the snowball rolling by adopting the Camino World Peace Project.
And let's declare world peace.
That's the idea.
And this is just if we all can agree on that basic thing,
Then surely we can work out a new platform which is not riddled with bias,
Which is fresh and accommodates a few of the things that we love.
I want to jump in and talk about your project and peace for a second,
Elena,
Just because we're short on time.
But for the deal,
I want to first just honor your commitment.
I don't know about the rest of you,
But I'm blown away and just in such recognition of your deep lifelong commitment to this path and to the cause.
And we know,
I feel like everywhere you go,
You are the spokesperson for world peace and it's just so beautiful and magical.
And I think I want to assure you that,
And I just want you to take these with you and let them unfold.
So the first one is,
I find it really fascinating.
I don't know about you all,
The focus on how many people don't think world peace is possible in your conversation.
I would say it's half of what you talk about.
Half of what I heard from you is how much I love world peace and I want it.
And half of it is how all of these people think it's not possible and how the idea is going to die and how it's so fringe and how it's so this.
And the amount of energy I just feel in your life force that's going towards that is taking away from what could be going towards what's possible.
Because in my mind,
And I think it's just generationally things that have changed,
This concept is not fringe at all to me.
It doesn't even remotely fringe.
And it's something that's like in massive conversation,
Like Marianne Williamson,
Some huge event in LA about peace.
And Michael Franti has peace to the people concert.
That's a world peace day.
And I see so much.
And so I think if we focus the energy,
We always want to focus on what we want instead of what we don't want.
And so if we're focusing too much energy on the people who don't believe in world peace or the people who think it's fringe,
Then we're using that laser focus of pointing out those people where we could be pointing out people who could be on our team.
And so I just want you to,
If you even take 30% of that energy and move it over,
I think we're going to see a massive movement.
And then the third thing,
And I was talking to the coach that I was working with,
This was like maybe 10 years ago about a partner.
And she's like,
So what do you want in a partner?
And I was like,
Well,
I don't want somebody who does this.
And I don't want somebody who posts like this on Instagram.
And I don't want somebody who does this.
Right?
I don't want somebody who hasn't worked on themselves.
I don't want,
I don't want it.
So I was like,
I know everything I don't want.
She goes,
Okay,
Great.
So you know everything you don't want.
Wow.
That's a lot of precision and focus on what you don't want.
What do you want?
And I was like,
I don't know.
I actually don't know.
And so she's like,
Now use all that focus that you went into like harnessing all the things you don't want into what you want.
And then let's get specific.
And that was when I started learning how to write a vision and why when I teach visioning,
I talk about,
Don't talk about.
That's why I take you guys into the future.
You're in your vision.
Your life is happening so that you can start to experience what it is that you want.
So so many of us do this in many ways in our lives.
So I want you all to watch that.
The third thing is,
And this is my belief about world peace and peace in general,
And you mirrored it to us so vulnerable and beautifully Magdalena is that I don't think peace is a goal.
I think peace is a condition.
Peace is like the weather.
I want world peace and I want everybody to feel world peace.
But for the people who provoke me,
I have trouble feeling peace.
Right?
Did you catch that Magdalena in your in your?
Well,
Yeah.
So it's good.
There's not I'm not I'm not criticizing you.
What I'm saying is that this is just something to recognize in all of us,
Because for some of us,
The things that we're saying are provoking them.
And so what do we have here?
Right.
So how can we serve in a way that allows the environment to be more peaceful in the condition of peace to arise more frequently?
And what does that actually take?
So these are all things that just arose in me while you were speaking.
And I hope they're helpful to you in some way.
What a session.
I wasn't expecting any of this.
I love these.
This is just fun.
So all right,
I think this is a moment to close out with a prayer.
So why don't I just keep you all on the screen for that?
Does that feel okay for you?
Yeah.
Okay.
So hands over the heart and keep yourself unmuted because the birds are so beautiful in the background.
Okay.
So here we are.
And before we go to the prayer,
Actually,
I'd love for everybody to come in with their golden nugget.
What is the one main takeaway that you want to take away from today's session?
What is your main takeaway?
So many things we learned today from learning how to make a bigger impact,
To changing our questions,
To focusing on what we want versus what we don't want,
To comparison,
Conversation,
And beyond.
We had beautiful words from Alonzo today and all of your words in the chat box.
So what is your one main takeaway from today's session?
Take a deep breath in and out.
And everybody who is in the chat,
Type your takeaway in.
And I would love for Allison to see if you'd be comfortable sharing your takeaway out loud with us.
If I have an idea,
Try it.
Beautiful.
How about you,
Carrie?
I am.
I am.
How about you,
Magdalena?
I'll unmute you.
Hold on one second.
When you get a little clue,
Go for it.
When you get a little clue,
Go for it.
Look at all the beautiful takeaways.
All of you in the chat box.
No one is right.
The best is,
How can I show up from where I am accepting I am?
Fine.
Great.
Stop comparing yourself to others.
I am worthy.
We'll keep it coming in together.
Alonzo,
Why don't you try to close out our ashay.
Let's see what you can do.
Yo,

Just do a couple.
I don't know.
Like three.
Give them what you got.

We've got lots of fun things to come.
I love you all.
Bye for now.
I hope you enjoyed this session of The Kingdom.
One of the best things that you can do right now is share this session with somebody that you love.
It is only by each of us sharing inspiration in the corners of the world that only we can reach,
That we will rise together.
Thank you so much for joining me for this session of The Kingdom.
I'll see you in the next one.
This is your moment,
Baby.
We are enough.
Let it shine.
We are enough.
