And this is where I began to push against those limits and test those limits. Now, I didn't know then, obviously, what I know now. But the ability to transcend the limits that we've been indoctrinated through family, culture, society, science, medicine, have all led us to believe we've got limits. And here's the thing. New discoveries are blowing the doors off every one of those limits.

Consciousness informs itself. through its creations. The technology that we're building in the world around us is reminding us that we are that technology, that within us, we have the capabilities as what we now call soft technology, not computer chips and chemicals in the blood and wires under the skin. We're more than that. We're human, we're neurons and we're DNA and we're cell membranes.

And we have the ability to self-regulate this soft technology in a way that no other form of life has. And here's the beauty, and this is every guest you've ever had, is hitting on one facet of this technology. When I was in the industry, what I learned is the more complex a system is, the simpler the user interface. You've probably seen that.

I mean, pick up a cell phone, you touch the screen, and man, you can pay your bills and talk to your friends, and you never even, you never typed a letter. That's very sophisticated.

Exactly, exactly. So our user interface is like that, and it is the subject of our most ancient and cherished spiritual traditions, thoughts, feelings, emotions, breath, focus, nutrient, and movement. That's our user interface. When we know how to bring those together in just the right way, we are awakening the potential of a soft technology that was given to no other form of life.

And it's a very different way of thinking. So divinity, because we're covering a lot of ground here, Divinity is the essence of our humanness. Divinity is the part of us that's timeless. It's ageless. It's where our love begins. It's where sympathy, empathy, compassion, forgiveness, understanding to our healing begins is our divinity. So there is a concerted movement now.

to veil us from our own divinity, to steal that power from us. Because when we are no longer connected with our divinity, we are more vulnerable to fear, more vulnerable to the agendas and the ideas of others, and more willing to accept other people's views of what our lives and what our world should look like.

I didn't. I didn't reject them. I just didn't accept them. It wasn't safe in my family to reject anything. If you've been around alcoholism, that's very unpredictable. You know, your father comes home. You never know which father you're going to get. You never know how your conversation is going to be heard or responded to. So you're in survival mode a lot. You are in survival.

Can I just do a little side journey on that just to show how deep that goes? I lost my mom during COVID. I wasn't ready for it. And it surprised me because I'm an adult and I'm 70. And I knew that I was going to lose her at some point. But when you're in a dysfunctional family, an alcoholic family like that, at least in our case, my mom is always my protector.

And there was a part of me, not the grown adult Greg, but there was a part of my psychology when my mom passed that realized that my protector in this world was gone. Wow. And I ended up, I was twice in the hospital with heart issues. Really? That were not heart issues. They kept saying, Mr. Braden, there's- Psychological issues. Well, they call them somatic now, which was very kind.
