And then what happens to my kids and my wife in the car?

You know what I mean?

Like, I sort of

I don't feel clarity about doing it.

So I don't do it.

But it shakes me.

And I go back, you know, I pay for whatever the thing is.

And I go back in the car and I tell my wife immediately, like, you're not going to believe what happened.

Because to me, that was a really distinct thing.

It doesn't sound like a very good story, but that memory pattern felt so distinct that I was like, oh my God, oh my God.

So, you know, I am a professional meditation teacher and minister.

And I know there's a line that people... You know, there's certain things that are too much to be believed, right?

They just can't take it in.

It's changed me.

It's changed what I think is possible.

It opened up my worldview.

One of the things that really sticks with me is...

is that sense of social and emotional freedom I had.

You know, there's a religion, there's a sociologist of religion named Mircea Eliade, and he was Romanian, and he basically argued that the Western materialist concept of time

is something that is essentially psychologically inherited from the Hebrew tradition, right?
