Because once we relinquish our humanness to the technology, we'll never get it back. Once we give our humanness, once we give our biology away, we'll never get it back. And we become something very different. This is what Ray Kurzweil is talking about, and it's what the others are talking about. But it comes... down to something even deeper than that.
And if you're going to do a soundbite, maybe this is going to be the soundbite because not everybody's into the good and evil. Not everybody's into the technology and all of that. It comes down to love. The question that we all ask ourselves, do we love ourselves enough to accept the gift of our humanness
And the responsibility that comes with being a human and our divinity, expressing our divinity fearlessly in this world. That's the question we're all asking ourselves. And without a verbal answer, the choices that we make, the politics that we choose, the medical systems that we choose, the food that we eat, the wars that we create, or the peace that we create are the answer to that question.
We're all answering it right now, but how can you answer it if you don't know the context? So I'm going to go back. Good and evil. A battle between good and evil. This is a very different battle. You don't win this battle. It's not the kind of battle that you win by fighting. We don't want to win. We want to triumph.
and the way you triumph and this is the beauty you don't have to know any of this the way we triumph is by living the best version of ourselves we live our humanness we live our divinity we love fearlessly we innovate we create we forgive without expectation when we do that forgiveness we do all of those things and by doing that that is the very opposite the evil wants
to defeat us by separating us from those expressions. When we live them, we have triumphed. Wow. And I think that's the beauty of where we are right now.
That is a really good question. And what we're doing now is the answer to that question. It has to begin with knowing that you have a choice, first of all.
So many people believe that there is no choice because they have been conditioned and indoctrinated to believe that they are powerless victims of a world around them that they have no control over and that they are a flawed form of life that needs something outside of their bodies. So knowledge is power. You have to be willing to embrace the deep truth of your humanness and your divinity.
It's very difficult to break through those patterns if you are not willing to accept the truth of your humanness and the power and responsibility that comes with being a human. on this earth. And we're given very few reasons to do that, Lewis, in our lives and our school children are given very few reasons to do that. And that's why they've lost respect in many cases for their bodies.
They don't have a sense of a future because the indoctrination is telling them they live in a world where it's hopeless. That's what it's telling them. Now, with the exception of the drugs, we were more than poor. When my father finally left, he left when I was 10, fortunately. Tough for my mom, raising two boys. She didn't have a job. This was early 1960s. Northern Missouri, or where were you?
Yeah, northern Missouri. Just north of Kansas City, Missouri. Northwest Missouri. Northwest Missouri, yeah. I lied about my age. I went to work in a copper mill so I could be a union worker after school. I worked union hours, 4 p.m. to 4 a.m. There were 12-hour shifts. We lived in government-subsidized housing for most of my teen years until I left, and then I was forced to go back.
At the age of 14, I left The court intervened and said, you have to go back until you're 18 or you become a ward of the state. So I went back. We lived in government subsidized housing. And it's one of those things, you can hear the words from a million different people. You have to find a reason to become more than the circumstances of your past. You have to find that reason for yourself.
And that's why the information, it's more than just data. When I can show someone the potential within their bodies to look at it differently, when I can show someone what their divinity is really all about, and that it's so valuable that nations will create wars to divert and distract us, what is it within us that could possibly warrant that extreme of hurt and suffering?
It's because we are so valuable and so precious. I can tell you another story. I have no idea how we're doing on time.
And then the story will fit into this as well.
To recognize that that potential is there and that we are rare and precious and beautiful and ancient and sacred form of life. No one's telling our young people that at all. You know... We see this in religious traditions where the human body is often called the temple. You see that.
And in biblical traditions, other traditions, from that perspective, if someone is biblically inclined, I think it's 1 Corinthians 13, I think, that says, no, ye not, that ye are the temple of God. What does that mean? Well, When we go to Egypt, we go to Greece, we go to many of these ancient civilizations, when they build temples, they build them in layers.
And the innermost sanctum is where the most precious secrets and the wisdom are always kept. For example, the Ark of the Covenant in Solomon's temple wasn't like by the doorway when you walk in. You had to go through layers.
Chambers. And only certain people were allowed in there. Well, from that perspective, if the human body is a temple. Those ancient traditions, that innermost sanctum is called the Holy of Holies is the term that's given, the Holy of Holies. It's where the Ark was kept and Solomon's temple. We as a temple, as a human body temple, have not one Holy of Holies. We have 50 trillion.
holy of holies, because the nucleus of every cell in our body holds the information that reminds us that we are not what we've been told. We're so much more than we've been led to believe. And when you begin to think of yourself from that way, now I agree, if you're If you're down and out, broke, strung out, unemployed, I mean, these are big concepts.
