 He tells Neo, and then he jumps across from one skyscraper to the next. That's really why we're here, is to have that freedom. So, I'm very much at your service, and also I see Helen here and Jason's here. We're here to join with you in that way. And also, if you're pretty new to me and to my teachings, just as a quick summary, I started with the course in 1986, and in 1991, I was guided to just, I might say, impelled to just start traveling. And I was told, you know, pretty much the same thing as the apostles were told. Take no thought for what you should wear, what you should eat. Don't worry about transportation, food, lodging, all the things. All the things that seem very practical in this world. But I was told, don't worry about them. Pay attention, listen. I will provide for you, I will show you the way. And you have to just stay tuned in. That's your job. Stay willing, stay open, stay tuned in. So from 1991 to 1996, I kind of was like Jesus and the apostles kind of just floating around, not knowing from day to day where I would be staying, not knowing where the meals would come from, just trusting. And like I was just sharing earlier, not trying to develop more trust, but just trying to unplug from the ego and put my faith and trust in the Holy Spirit to truly take care of all aspects of my life, not just some aspects, but all aspects. And many of the things that I experienced during those five years have continued today. Instead of just traveling locally or around the United States, now I pretty much seem to go around the world. And so the context has changed a little bit in the sense that instead of getting donations to put gasoline in my little three-cylinders Chevrolet Sprint, now it involves airplanes a lot. And sometimes buses and trains and subways, all kinds of fun things, scooters. But actually, people can say, well, airplanes, that's a little bit bigger. And yes, with prequel flower miles of donations that come in from gatherings, that's been very helpful for me to just kind of continue on uninterrupted to do what I was doing back in 1991, which was just floating around and meeting people and sharing ideas, sharing a lot of joy. But I really learned that in order to really go for and maintain an experience of peace and enlightenment, this idea of reciprocity, of I'll do this for you if you'll do this for me, reciprocity, contracts, and so on and so forth, I really saw that that really wasn't going to fit with my life and my lifestyle. That I really had to be trusting in the Holy Spirit for absolutely everything because as soon as I would make an agreement, a bargain, something set up in terms of the contractual agreement or whatever, I would see that immediately there were expectations and parameters that were part of that agreement. Anything from a marriage to any kind of contract that you have, it's basically signing on a dotted line and saying, well, I will do this and this and this, or I will perform these things, or I will agree to these things if you will agree to compensate, pay, and so forth. It has a lot of expectations with it, and I found that peace of mind and expectations don't really go together. As soon as you expect something from somebody, it's like the ego is just sitting back there going, I can use this one, I'll play this to the hilt, and so for me it was very, very important just trusting and living on donations, and that has been something that has continued straight through for me. It's not so much a matter of the form, it's a matter of the context, that the ego is a reciprocal belief. It's a belief that something's lacking and that you need something to be fulfilled in form for there to be peace and happiness, and I find that the whole teachings that I've experienced with the Course in Miracles is that nothing has to be fulfilled in form, and that more than that, that the world of form is not really outside. It is entirely a mental phenomenon. Like Jesus says in the Course, all illness is mental illness. He's just saying the same thing, that all struggles, all conflicts, all sense of disease in any way, shape, or form is a mental phenomenon. It really has nothing to do with the physical world. The same thing that quantum physics is teaching is that there really is no external world to the observer. In the unified field, everything is just completely connected, and there is no perceiver and perceive. So in practical terms, that has been very important, because over the years, I have had people that say, well, I know I told you this, I told you that, but I've changed my mind. I've decided not to honor the agreement. And basically when I've gone to Jesus or the Holy Spirit, they say, so be it. You're not going to get any sympathy or support from the Holy Spirit, but I've been mistreated. I said, I told you in the Course, be aware of the temptation to perceive yourself unfairly treated. You have the slightest inkling that something's not right, and something's gone amiss. And then it's almost like a little recording in my mind of the teaching from the Course. I am responsible for what I see. I choose the feelings I experience, and I decide upon the goal I would achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me, I ask for and receive as I have asked. Okay, no victimization in there. That is tight. That is a tight statement. Air tight. That is spirit tight. There's no way that the ego can get a baby toenail. There's just no room for, no wiggle room. And at first it's like, come on, cut me a break. And then the more you go with it, it's like, thank God. Thank you for being so uncompromising spirit. Thank you for never perceiving or siding with grievance. That's a sure fire way to make God laugh, is tell God your grievance. And at times it's actually happened where I've had a friend of mine call up by one time, a friend of mine called me on the phone, and I answered the phone and she's just like, I'm in hell. I'm in hell. I can't stand it. I'm in hell. I'm in hell. It just went on for three minutes. And I just could not help but laughing. I just burst into laughter. I mean, after a couple minutes of this hell stuff, it's just got too much to take. And then there's this silent pause on the phone, and then this voice at the other end of the phone said, okay, I can see you're not in hell. And then she said, what did you do the last time you were in hell? And so the spirit kind of gave a little synopsis that I was actually, I remember feeling this emotion coming up and I remember saying to myself, okay, I'm going to go and sit down in a chair, and I'm not going to get out of the chair, I said to the ego, until you get out of my mind or you're at least, I've got nowhere to go, nothing to do. Of course, I was pretty far into this Divine Providence stuff, so I didn't have a job or anybody waiting for me. So the ego couldn't come in with, huh, huh, you're going to be fired. Long past that, I'm not leaving this chair until you leave. And that was kind of an uncompromising moment, again, where it's like, I'm worth it. I'm worth this piece.
