| 0:00.0 | The magnificence of who you are is far greater than any fantasies you'll ever put on yourself. I've heard you speak to how the journey of the matured intellect is being able to hold paradox simultaneously. Simultaneously. If you're addicted to pleasure, you're going to be hurt by pain. Anything that you have an infatuation with, the opposite is going to be something you resent. I had a lady in London. She was traumatized at 16. I said, good. Go to that moment. What did you perceive? And when she got through, she was not traumatized. She didn't have a label. The suffering is the inability to see both sides simultaneously. We're trying to get rid of the side that we think is the shadow side, but the shadow is just as essential as the other. It's an event. And if you buy into the event and put a label on it, you'll be trapped as a victim of history instead of a master of destiny. If you ask new sets of questions, I can take that same event, transform it into something you're grateful for and get on with your life. Master of destiny. Some people are familiar with you from your work initially being in the film The Secret. |
