He seems to be entranced, as if he had to undergo some type of deep meditation process in order to conjure up such a combination of words. It's as if he separated himself from every earthly restraint and allowed something else access to his person.

@mrteachout He would never let you get away with thinking your words were meaningless, and make sure you know all of his words are supporting and enhancing the power and meaning of your words. I had a similar feeling, and sounds like a lot of people did, after listening to and watching this, where you're just blown away by it's brilliance and left kind of frozen and empty for a moment. ...

@mrteachout … One way I see that is that what he gave and shared with you, with all the love and work and everything he put into it, gave you a little cleansing, and opening, wiping away some of the extra junk we all have, and letting you be in a more pure space and energy, more ready, able and free to connect with the universe through yourself.

@Robinzorz I think what's more important is what you think about it, rather than what he and others think. Art is a gift, an offering, a connection, and sharing that respects you rather than tells you. It's an invitation and platform to explore yourself. Explore his words from your perspective and see what comes... what you discover in them will give you far more than his or anyone else's explanation. ...

@funky2flavor They just don't understand. Some people would rather eat junk food even when presented with a gourmet meal. ;o)
