And sex is taboo for so many people. It's bastardized and it's become completely animalistic. And I say that sex is an acronym for sacred energy exchange. It's meant to be between a married, committed couple, and it's not meant for physical pleasure. God gave us the gift of it being pleasing, but it's meant for two things. It's meant for reproduction, to be able to literally produce a human being.
Think about how powerful that is. We've been told that we're created in the image and the likeness of God. Well, we can create a human being. with another person, that's pretty powerful, pretty profound. And the second reason is it's a form of meditation and prayer.
Now, I know that goes against a lot of people's mindset, particularly in an animalistic world where human trafficking and pedophilia and all these things are so rampant, unfortunately. And yet that's what that sacred act is meant for. And so we have totally missed the mark with these three human dilemmas.
Going all the way back, John, to probably the Enlightenment in the 17th century, which I really believe was in many ways a de-Enlightenment because it got us away from our intuition. It got us away from God. It started to make sense.
fun in some degree or make it stupid to believe in a higher power and we got all caught up in our rational mind and in our intellect and we're so caught up in our intellects now we want to boast about our sat scores and yet you can be you can have 150 sat score and be an emotional slave There's a lot of very intelligent people who are emotional slaves. And so, yes, back to Campbell.
And as I mentioned earlier, we have begun to worship at the altar of money and materialism and intellect. And we've gotten so far away from what I call in God, money and sex, this vertical principle, which is a metaphor because Christ said the kingdom of heaven is within us. It's not somewhere in the clouds as we've been conditioned to believe it.
But this vertical principle is a metaphor for this connectivity to a hierarchy, to a controlling force. And so consequently, all we have now is this horizontal principle that I talk about, which is the secular world. When you don't have a vertical principle, and you don't have a hierarchy of what's moral and what's right and what's true, then where do you learn what's moral, right, and true?
Well, on a secular world, a horizontal plane, you look at people around you and you say, what are they doing? And that's how I learned what's right and wrong. And that's what Beersheba talked about when she was growing up in gang behavior and in bad neighborhoods. She looked around and here's what's right and wrong. If you look at what's going on in our world right now,
To tell the truth is not valued, John. You know, how many people have lied under oath in front of Congress and nothing has happened to them? Nothing. And so consequently, to tell the truth is not valued in our current world. In fact, in many cases, it's persecuted. Some cases it's been prosecuted. And that's really unfortunate. And that's where we've gotten so far adrift.
And Campbell is absolutely correct. And he talks so much about getting back what we call getting back to center and getting back to what these ancient myths have told us since antiquity. And they're all very common. Just like I told you, I mentioned earlier about the great philosophers, very common teachings, but they've become very unpopular, unfortunately.
Ludicrous.
I'll take this one. I'm probably more qualified than Baris, but I think we are direly in need of masculinity. Masculinity is leadership. Masculinity is courage. Masculinity has so many different qualities not to fold in the face of fear, to get back up when you fall down or get knocked down. That's true masculinity. And unfortunately, this term toxic masculinity has been misused.
Now, there is some, in my opinion, if you look at, and I could name some names and I probably won't, but if you look at certain individuals who are attempting to be masculine, they're saying you need to put a log on your shoulder and run up a mountain. Well, that's machismo. That's not masculinity.
Or you need to become an MMA fighter and mouth off and curse and say all kinds of loud things to your opponent. That's machismo. That's not masculinity. True masculinity is a man who takes care and treats his woman like a queen. Really does. And he looked people in the eye. Look people in the eye when you talk to them.
And that seems so simple, and yet I can't tell you how many younger generations, when I talk to them, they have no ability to look you in the eye because they have no self-confidence. And get off of your iPad, for God's sakes. Go to the gym. Lift some heavy weights. And that sounds very simplistic, but that's all part of being a man. Eat a lot of meat. No tofu. Eat meat. Eat cheese. Eat butter.
Yes. Read the great philosophers and study the great philosophers. Read the Bible. and study this ancient wisdom. And that's true masculinity. And we're sorely missing that in today's world.
Well, it's a great question because our company name is Harmonic Wealth Global. And let me just explain that if I may, humor me for a moment, because most people think wealth is defined as money. If you trace the etymology of the word wealth back to its origins, it literally translates as wellbeing.
I've worked with so many people we have who make a tremendous amount of money and they're not wealthy because they don't have a lot of wellbeing. And so consequently at our company, Harmonic Wealth Global, one of the things that we're really committed to is creating independent thinkers. So thank you for the question.
And we have four primary practices that we talk about to become an independent thinker. And Bersaba already alluded to a couple of them earlier, but let me go through them real quickly. Number one, which Beresford talked extensively about, you have to take absolute responsibility for your life.
When I was standing in the desert, $20 million in debt and homeless, I had to ask myself, how did I create this? So many times I ask people, do you like the way that our country is going right now? And they say, no, I really don't. And I say, well, how did you create it? Well, I didn't create it. I'm not in government. I don't have any power. Oh, yes, you did. How long have you been complacent?
