 Do you have any advice on how to see the oneness? Okay, the question is, is there any advice on how to see the oneness? You might say that the potential problem of this world is based on duality. And duality and oneness don't go together. The most basic dualistic split is not between the things of the world. It's between a perceiver and a perceived world. It seems like in the human condition that as a human being, you perceive a world that's outside of you. So you have five senses and that there's a world that surrounds you. In order to see the oneness, what happens is that split has to get corrected. So you know how people tell you that there's beautiful teachings now. Some of you might have heard before agreements. I wonder if more agreements just don't take things personally. Well, it can seem easier said than done, but the whole ego, which is what the error is, is taking everything personally. So in order to see the oneness, you simply have to learn how to get so aligned with the spirit and so detached from the world that you simply don't take anything personally. To give you a concrete example, a number of years ago, some friends of mine who were course students, they decided they decided to take a vacation and fly off to somewhere and leave their kids with me. And so I went to the house and, oh, we had fun. Mom and Dad were gone. And so they said, we went to McDonald's like seven nights every night. We went to McDonald's. They said, where do you want to eat McDonald's? Mickey D's. Next night. Where do you want to eat McDonald's? We went in the living room. They had all the furniture arranged very neat and everything. And they said, you know, Mom and Dad never let us touch the furniture. We want to play house. We want to make coats and everything. They got the sheets out. We turned the living room, you know, into like a jungle gym and this and that. And as you will find it with children, they always try to test your boundaries, you know, to see how far they can go. They couldn't find any boundaries with me. They kept, ooh, this is fun. This is fun. So, in fact, they got so happy being around me that week that at one point, they were like giddy with laughter. Just as they were purely enjoying a childhood, quealing with delight. At one point, in the squealing of their delight, they looked at each other and wondered, and I think there was a little girl, Andy, she's white. She spit. And I'm in this state of perfect attachment so I can see the spit ball coming through the air. It lands in my beard. But when you're in the observer state, you don't even take spitting pose. I think he was a little upset with me. But I was in such a state of detachment that as soon as it landed, and I didn't scream or holler or make a statement, they just went into a little spit test. And what I share the story is because when we really relax and we get into our innocence and it's all like innocence, it's like in pages, you know, people like to be around you when you're not judging them. You ever notice that when you're just loving and innocent and accepted, that people come around you and they just like to hang around? And that's an answer to your question that the only way to really see the oneness is to go so deep in your mind and do such a transformation so that your trust level come up that what you find is you reach a state of mind where you don't take anything personally. And that's really what the oneness is about. In the Bible, it even says God is no respecter of persons. So before agreement got always stuck, way back in the Bible. And that's just your question, that's really what this is about, letting your trust level, your faith climb so high that you don't become defensive and you don't take things personally. Regardless of what happened. And people who know me, we even had a wind storm about a month or two ago and I'm going to say why don't you have a collision car insurance for comprehensive analytics. A big branch came down from our neighbor's tree and smashed onto the house and then onto this car and this tree stands on the heart of the car. So they sent me out to investigate. And I came back in the album and I said, our link sir has been relanced. And what are you going to do? I mean, you're going to shake your fist at the tree, you know. All things work together for good. It's a state of mind where you just don't take anything personally and you don't get caught up into appearances or whatever. And that allows you to extend a lot of love and life and joy. You're not billable because you're invulnerable. You can't be gullible and invulnerable. When you're really in the state of mind training, when you really have let go of all these concepts and everything, you feel a connection and one is for everything. And you really try to fit all the things work together for good. You weren't supposed to. Well, since we're at the one center, we're talking about oneness. And I don't think we know the power of our mind. And the difference is that life is now full of levels of duality. And if we're able to change that belief system, the one you should talk about, or have an extra transformation of it, these are a little bit more about that. Inside you'll be just a current one. Yeah, this is... He just said some things. He said, judge, not let you be judged. But he was just talking about the basic thing. Law of karma, as you sow, so shall you reap, it's been said in many different cultures, in many different traditions. I would call it forgiveness. When you really, really learn to forgive, you are completely invulnerable. And forgiveness, what you're talking about, Blaine, is that the transformation of consciousness is when you really start to see that forgiveness is always a gift to yourself. Because you're really not forgiving anything or anyone. All you're doing is you're releasing the misperceptions and the obstacles from your own mind. And that's wonderful. So it's not like when you let go of a grievance that you're really doing it for somebody else. It's actually... You're being very loving to yourself by letting go of that grievance. Peace and grievance are dealt there together. And so the more you get into this joy of letting go of the grievances and the judgments, you really figure out that everything works out great. The grievance didn't get a view of this. There was always, there were negative thoughts. There were the emotional thoughts that you were lugging around. So I'm sharing a little bit of yesterday and gathering that in this world, people are very concerned about things like diets and exercise and all kinds of things that I would call form things. And what Jesus taught 2,000 years ago, it's not what you put in your mouth that defiles what she's supposed from the heart. I met years ago, my biological parents were looking at me and my biological mother said, we know you live right, you eat right, you get exercise, we know you really live a very healthy lifestyle, but he said that accidents do happen. And my biological father just shook his head and said, no, he doesn't even believe in accidents. I don't think it's a random universe. Who would want to live in a random universe? And so I got into that state where I started to realize that it was my thinking, my judgmental thinking that was unhealthy and that when I got into this divine providence, I was able to stop, to give up health insurance, didn't have to worry about eating the right foods anymore, hit the black. And I was there, a tennis instructor, cardiovascular fitness, I didn't even have to exercise. I believed years ago that the body was apathy if you didn't exercise it. That's a belief too. There's nothing going wrong with me. I don't even exercise it. Nothing. It's like you see my dad had all this guilt about I'm not eating the right foods and not exercising enough, I'm too fat and too skinny and that's what the evil has to do with trying to keep you guilty. Caught up into all these meaningless little things that really don't matter in the overall context of things. And God wants you to be happy, that's it. God doesn't have some kind of a plan where you have to, you know, to attain some great thing. He just wants you to be happy in the present moment. That's all God wants. And once I realized that, that's what God wrote for me, that I said, that's good news. I'm going for that one. I like his happiness idea. So the answer to your question was, let me, it is an inner job. And I put my heart and soul and everything into this purification in my mind. Because I knew that that is what was necessary. And I was also able to pull my energy away from the wild goose chase of running around in the world trying to keep up with the Joneses and, you know, I let go of self-improvement. God told me I was perfect just the way I was right now. So I let go even the concept of self-improvement or becoming a spiritual person or becoming enlightened or becoming whatever. That's all still future-oriented and really right now is, the Kingdom of Heaven is right now. The Kingdom of Heaven is within. You don't need to look to a person or praise the thing because as they say in the Matrix, you are the one. That's good news. A little bit about what you do with anything to maintain your, you know, your serenity or if you're trying to live with it, you know what I've seen, and if I don't take time to do it myself, then I'm not able to. That's a good question. As you're approaching the period of enlightenment, those are all wonderful things to do. And I would recommend that it's really a training or a discipline of your mind. That's what meditation is. Tai Chi, even diet disciplines, exercise disciplines, whatever, meditation practices, those are all extremely valuable and it's helping your mind learn to commit to that piece of mind. Those are like really important steps. I have to think for myself that once you kind of surrender and you let go of the ego, then the practice is gone. I mean, you're just in and it's very natural. And it's like each of them says you've played without ceasing. You know, it's like before, there were really important and the meditation were really important. But there were still tools that I was using to reach a future goal. And when I finally realized that it wasn't in the future, it was now, then all those things fell away too. Very naturally. So in the course, these people say that you really have to be rid of it on your purpose. So you might say that that's really all that I do because I stay real rid of it on my purpose. Which is just to extend the love and joy. And I'm completely out of cash to help them. I never know if I show up, if anybody's going to even be there, I really don't care. I'm only one already. I'm not into numbers. Typically when I do gathering, people are concerned about getting enough people out there. I say, oh, forget about it. It's like they say to the Italians, oh, forget about it. Forget about it. If I get concerned about numbers, I'm happy to be where I seem to be. And I'm very content. So that's an interesting question. It's like staying rid of it on your purpose and really waking up in the morning and having that out front and holding that out front like a torch. Then you're set. Any other questions? Since it is the one center and everyone always has relationship issues at some point. And it seems to me that the ultimate holy relationship is that we all return to one and return to God so there is no idea of separation. Can you just expand a little bit on what we talked about this morning about the ego's idea of falling in love without love and the ego's perception of what love is and what the Holy Spirit's perception of what love is and what one really is. So that's the question of relationships. In this world relationships are mirrors. You should always be grateful for all your brothers and sisters around you because they're simply reflecting what you still are holding in your consciousness. And that's it. They're held unconsciously. You have no other way really to get in touch with them except when you see somebody and you jump on him and scream at him. You've got to include that you've got something still in your consciousness that is less than truthful. And so in order to come to the oneness you really start to realize that oneness is an interaction or a line with your source. And when you're in line with your source you are automatically in line with everyone. With everyone and everything. So prospering relationships because a lot of the traditional spiritual past you know, go off to the Himalayas and get away from people. Just meditate. My path was I had people around me a lot and I didn't have my arm against experiences but I learned to use the relationships to get in touch with my own inner bodywork. Never to blame them. Never to keep them. Never to point a finger and say that they're the problem when all these weird things kept saying all I hope is there's one thing it's your own lesson. It's your own lesson. I've heard that over and over and over so even though when I was tempted to say but what about the spirit was always gently saying it's your own lesson. Someone tried to change it out there so I think it's great to be able to use relationships to come to this clearing of the mind and we've talked a lot about that in fact a lot of my tapes and CDs and writings about relationships and coming to a holy relationship learning to let go of special relationships and grievances and judgments and knowing to appreciate and love everyone. In fact I I don't know if we have a focus to miss but this is the one that we hit in there I've got a song called Now That We All Are One we all are one but since it's the one that's gathered I like to try to play that so we all can hear it and just close your eyes and relax and the song has a lot of great lines in it but one of the lines in the song is let us cast away the thoughts of many years so it can seem like a very heavy thought but think how many years is it going to take to take us before we experience this wonder and what this song is saying is we're one right now and it's okay to give your mind cast away the thoughts of many years just go in and feel your wonder, feel your love and your joy and your happiness right now but in the in the boombox this is the question
