landed on this day I really wanted to honor it and I remembered a talk that I gave probably it's nine years ago. I remember a talk that I gave probably it's nine years ago.

And I looked back at it and it felt so relevant and so alive for today that I wanted to share it with you.

It's a talk on beloved community.

And I just think there's something each of our hearts really longs for beloved community. I love the language of it.

Where each being is truly treated with respect, with care. It's a true expression of freedom as a society, this

beloved community. And as we know if we look at any part of the globe, you know, if we look as

individuals or society, there's huge conditioning that blocks us from being in relationship in this loving way.

There's huge conditioning that really basically keeps us

from valuing all beings.

Instead, there's a hierarchy, and some beings

are treated and valued as less important

or even as bad.

So I want to explore this by sharing this talk,

the lenses of racism in the United States, and I speak quite personally about my own experience

with this conditioning to create separation from others, and I also talk about in this the ways we can deepen attention and evolve consciousness.

Involve consciousness in a way that really lets us bridge the divides with all people

and bring more loving to our world.

So I hope this serves, and again,

many blessings on this day.

So, Namest day. So Sunday at Budapest, the program we had was called Beloved Community.
