We need to be so confident about what we're doing in this path of bacti that we don't let anyone slow us down drag us down confuse us uh even shame us for it right

and and and my conviction is when we you know we bring a lot of nuggets onto this show, right?

And when we look at wise people from all different cultures and all different ages, it seems to me that the real wise ones knew something.

And, and that had to do with, yes, we're all about improving the world.

But anybody that's talking about improving the world without talking about improving the self first, there's spiritually bypassing.

You could say that.

You're flip it on it.

They're spiritually bypassed their own self.

You really could.
