Speed of Thought

[00:00:00] Speaker A: Mhm.

[00:00:01] Speaker B: Dive into the forefront of thought exploration, where we unravel the dynamic relation between thought and reality.

Explore insights on how the science of imagery shapes individual and collective identities, and redefines the benchmarks for a, um, brighter, peaceful future.

Welcome to the science of imagery.

[00:00:28] Speaker C: Welcome to the Science of Imagery podcast, where we study our ability to shape life with our thought. My name is Wyatt. I’m here with my co host, Eddie am, and this is the second episode of the Science of Imagery podcast.

In the first episode, we did a brief overview of what the science of imagery is. We shared some personal experiences and went on a couple little explorations and, uh, made some discoveries with each other. One concept that we mentioned quite a lot was the speed of thought.

[00:01:00] Speaker A: And we said that we were going.

[00:01:01] Speaker C: To do a podcast talking about the speed of thought. We mentioned some particular things, that the ability to create living images is a direct result of one’s speed of thinking.

[00:01:15] Speaker A: And it’s our goal today in this.

[00:01:17] Speaker C: Podcast to explore what is the speed of thought.

[00:01:22] Speaker D: Beautifully said, Wyatt.

[00:01:24] Speaker E: I have to admit that I am very excited to be talking about this theme. It has profoundly influenced my life. It has changed my life in every way imaginable. And I know, Wyatt, it’s been the same circumstance for you as well, so to speak. Today it’s going to be coming right from our heart. This is a, uh, real joy and honor to be talking about the subject today, everyone.

[00:01:51] Speaker C: So this subject is one that is.

[00:01:53] Speaker A: Very obscure and it’s deliberately obscured, at.

[00:01:58] Speaker C: Least for my observations, wouldn’t you say, Erian?

[00:02:00] Speaker A: Um, yes, I agree.

[00:02:03] Speaker C: I think if we start to examine.

[00:02:05] Speaker A: Why it’s obscured, that answer is going to come after we do this podcast. After you listen to this podcast, the speed of thought, I’m going to bring.

[00:02:17] Speaker C: Us back to when we were talking.

[00:02:19] Speaker A: About our divine image and how we.

[00:02:22] Speaker C: Gave that image away.

[00:02:24] Speaker A: Adyen was mentioning this.

[00:02:26] Speaker C: And I’m inviting us all to remember.

[00:02:29] Speaker A: Those moments when we vanquished a part.

[00:02:33] Speaker C: Of ourselves that is extremely pure to who we are. That is the fundamental layer of what makes us us.

[00:02:42] Speaker A: And I’m, um, inviting us to all.

[00:02:44] Speaker C: Go on a quick little thought journey.

[00:02:47] Speaker A: And to remember those choices that we made, to remember the thoughts that we had, and to remember maybe what was.

[00:02:57] Speaker C: The conditions for those thoughts to arise.

[00:03:00] Speaker A: And then to also see how those.

[00:03:03] Speaker C: Thoughts created a chain of reactions throughout.

[00:03:05] Speaker A: Our lives, and how, man, most of us are still walking in that chain.

[00:03:12] Speaker C: Of reactions from a couple of thoughts.

[00:03:15] Speaker A: That have led to the degradation of.

[00:03:17] Speaker C: Our speed of thought.

[00:03:19] Speaker A: So the question becomes what was the.

[00:03:22] Speaker C: Fundamental choice that we made.

[00:03:25] Speaker A: So I think by going on this exploration together to the origin of that.

[00:03:31] Speaker C: Point where we all decided to give away our thought, to degrade it, to allow it to be subjected, to not.

[00:03:39] Speaker A: Own it, to not hold it, to not honor it. We gave away, uh, our birthright. We gave away a big part of ourself, man.

[00:03:50] Speaker C: This is the most powerful part. This is what makes us who we are, the speed of our thinking. We’re not here to be slaves.

[00:03:58] Speaker A: We’re not here to be just another.

[00:04:01] Speaker C: Cogs in the wheel. We’re here to be co creators.

[00:04:04] Speaker A: We are man, man of pristine, pure origins.

[00:04:07] Speaker C: We are here to co create. And how do we create?

[00:04:11] Speaker A: Everything starts from a thought. And so the speed of thought is the degree to which we can create.

[00:04:17] Speaker E: I love the table that you’re setting.

[00:04:20] Speaker D: Here for us, Wyatt, because what you’re.

[00:04:23] Speaker E: Pointing at here without saying it directly.

[00:04:26] Speaker D: Is the closer we get to the original design intent of our thought, the.

[00:04:34] Speaker E: Closer we get to the purity of.

[00:04:37] Speaker D: Our thought, the faster it will become. So if we could just stay with.

[00:04:44] Speaker E: That for a moment, if we could sit with that for a moment, everybody.

[00:04:48] Speaker D: The closer we get to the thoughts, original design to its pure and whole expression, the faster this thought will be.

[00:04:56] Speaker E: And so someone might say to us.

[00:04:57] Speaker D: What do you mean by faster?

[00:05:00] Speaker E: What do you mean by speed? Let’s discuss this here.

[00:05:03] Speaker D: So think about your life.

[00:05:06] Speaker E: Think about all the different kinds of conversations you’ve had with all different kinds of people.

In my lifetime, I’ve been around such a diverse amount of people and I love doing that from a very young age and I still have that to this day. Making friends with people that think differently. A, uh, big, diversified group of people. I notice that my thought functions differently.

[00:05:29] Speaker D: Depending on the different types of groups.

[00:05:33] Speaker E: Of people that I’m with.

I also notice that my thought functions differently depending on what I’m feeding into.

[00:05:41] Speaker D: So if I turn the tv on and watch the news, for example, my.

[00:05:46] Speaker E: Thought goes into a fear mode. It significantly slows down because a lot of the energy and effort of my thought is going into survival and protection.

[00:05:58] Speaker A: So, Erian, uh, can I ask you.

[00:06:00] Speaker C: Can you, I think people might be wondering the slow down.

[00:06:04] Speaker A: Can you share more what you mean by slow down?

[00:06:06] Speaker E: Imagine I’m going to create a living image for everybody here. So let’s take a breath, everyone.

[00:06:14] Speaker D: You’re going to walk with Wyatt and I into nature.

And we’re walking towards a river.

[00:06:22] Speaker E: It’s not too deep and the water isn’t running too quickly. It’s a very welcoming river here.

Perfect depth, uh, perfect temperature. And we’re going to walk into it.

This water is so clean and pure. It is pure, it’s pristine, it’s clean. It’s so clean that we could drink out of it.

[00:06:42] Speaker D: And we know that it is safe.

[00:06:45] Speaker E: To drink, and it’s going to nourish us and hydrate us.

[00:06:48] Speaker D: It’s clean, it’s pure, it’s pristine.

[00:06:52] Speaker A: Okay.

[00:06:52] Speaker E: And now we’re going to get out of this river, and we’re going to take a couple steps now to a neighboring stream, a neighboring river close by.

And this river is very murky.

[00:07:05] Speaker D: It’s actually quite polluted. It’s so polluted, and it has a.

[00:07:10] Speaker E: Lot of garbage in it.

It’s very uninviting.

[00:07:14] Speaker D: In fact, it’s quite toxic.

[00:07:17] Speaker E: It’s very abandoned. And no part of us wants to go in there. No part of us wants to put our body in that water.

I’m going to compare everyone, our thought streams, with these two rivers.

One is very pure, and it’s clean and it is flowing. It flows with ease and grace.

It’s very uplifting, it’s purifying. That is very different from the neighboring river.

[00:07:46] Speaker D: That’s quite polluted. The water is flowing very differently. The water doesn’t have the same intelligence. Everyone, what kind of, let’s look at.

[00:07:55] Speaker E: The intelligence now of these two rivers. One river is flowing with ease and grace. It’s fulfilling its destiny with ease and grace.

[00:08:04] Speaker D: Whereas if we look at the reality of the other one, it’s bogged, it’s distorted, it’s struggling, it’s lethargic. It can’t be its free flowing, pure.

[00:08:16] Speaker E: Expression, because the majority of its effort.

[00:08:19] Speaker D: Is going into cleaning itself. And so this is precisely the same.

[00:08:23] Speaker E: Thing that’s happening with our thought, everyone.

[00:08:26] Speaker D: And that’s the example I gave.

[00:08:27] Speaker E: When I go and look at a news, a very scary news feed or.

[00:08:32] Speaker D: News channel, for example, my thought has.

[00:08:35] Speaker E: To go into a lot of my thoughts. Effort has to go into, uh, survival. That’s a lot of effort. That’s a lot of energy that’s going into my thought, trying to brace and hold itself and make sense of a.

[00:08:47] Speaker D: Situation where I can put my thought.

[00:08:50] Speaker E: Into something that really reflects a wholesome.

[00:08:53] Speaker D: Clear and pristine truth.

[00:08:56] Speaker E: My effort is now going into engaging with that image of truth and that.

[00:09:01] Speaker D: Image of purity, connecting with it, relating to it, embodying it.

[00:09:07] Speaker A: I love your example, Adian.

[00:09:09] Speaker C: Is it safe to say from what I’m hearing from you, that, uh, if our thought stream is like that dirty river, and you said that it’s spending.

[00:09:18] Speaker A: All this time cleaning itself, is it.

[00:09:23] Speaker C: Safe to say that because it’s spending time cleaning itself, it’s unable to witness.

[00:09:28] Speaker A: Can we, uh, at least say a.

[00:09:30] Speaker C: Reduced amount of information?

[00:09:32] Speaker A: Because it can’t, it’s not open, it.

[00:09:34] Speaker C: Doesn’T have excesses of resources?

[00:09:36] Speaker A: Yeah, 100%. Yep.

[00:09:41] Speaker D: The speed of thought accelerates when we.

[00:09:45] Speaker E: Are able to effectively process information clearly.

[00:09:50] Speaker D: And when we’re also able to dissolve our distractions. It is not this hamster wheel. Someone might say, well, I think already.

[00:09:58] Speaker E: So much, and there’s so many things already I have to think about in the day. That’s distraction.

[00:10:02] Speaker D: That’s not what we’re talking about here. And so now I’m going to talk.

[00:10:05] Speaker E: About the bigger perspective. I can see the bigger perspective on any situation.

[00:10:12] Speaker D: If I am, um, relaxed, if I’m present, if I’m away from distraction, I.

[00:10:19] Speaker E: Can see the bigger picture. I can process information a lot more effectively.

[00:10:25] Speaker D: I can feel solid and good with.

[00:10:26] Speaker E: My decisions and choices. If I’m feeding into that dirty river.

[00:10:31] Speaker D: For example, if I’m feeding into these scary news reports on the television or.

[00:10:37] Speaker E: My laptop screen, my perspective begins to narrow.

[00:10:42] Speaker D: Because the energy of my thought has to go into coping and into bracing, even protecting, trying to find solutions. It goes into a, uh, coping and solution finding space.

[00:10:56] Speaker E: And that’s an enormous amount of energy and effort. I know people have lived their whole lives like this.

[00:11:01] Speaker D: And I also went through and still.

[00:11:04] Speaker E: Find myself going in and out of this.

[00:11:07] Speaker D: We follow other ways of thinking and being and doing.

[00:11:12] Speaker E: Even if it doesn’t fully align with us. It’s hard to know what aligns with.

[00:11:16] Speaker D: Us when we’re coping and when we’re.

[00:11:18] Speaker E: Putting so much energy into bracing ourselves and into distraction.

So just imagine a life here where we, the people, are able to relax in our body and deeply relax with.

[00:11:31] Speaker D: Our thought process, and allow ourselves to really be still and present, allow ourselves to see the bigger picture, allow ourselves.

[00:11:43] Speaker E: To look over to that clean running.

[00:11:45] Speaker D: River and simply be with it and.

[00:11:48] Speaker E: Be informed by it. Not go over and analyze it and dissect it and put it in a scientific lab.

I’m talking about just going over to that clear running river and simply being with it and allowing it to inform.

[00:12:01] Speaker D: Us, treating it like a living, breathing being.

[00:12:05] Speaker E: Because it is.

[00:12:08] Speaker A: What a brilliant. Share Erian, you’re making me think about what does a harmonious.

[00:12:15] Speaker C: We’ve been giving a lot of examples of what speed of thought is not.

[00:12:19] Speaker A: What does a harmonious speed of thought look like? And what does it reflect?

[00:12:25] Speaker C: What is it similar to?

Erianne, I know you had a share about this. Regarding our thought and creator’s thought, I think I think it would be a good time to tell the people.

[00:12:38] Speaker E: The, uh, closer we get to the.

[00:12:40] Speaker D: Original design, the original design of our.

[00:12:44] Speaker E: Thought, the closer we get to that.

[00:12:46] Speaker D: The faster it speeds up that pure.

[00:12:52] Speaker E: Clear, crystal clean river that I’m talking about.

[00:12:57] Speaker D: The design that was there for us.

[00:12:59] Speaker E: In the very beginning. Before all of the programming. All of the distortion, all of the distraction.

[00:13:07] Speaker C: Uh, I think it’s brilliant. I think it’s excellent. And we have so many opportunities every day, all around us. To begin to engage with this level of thought.

I invite everybody to make some time. To go sit somewhere in nature.

[00:13:24] Speaker A: You know, make sure you’re alone. Observe nature.

[00:13:27] Speaker C: And you’ve heard so many people say that, well, I’m inviting you to do this with another objective. Have this in your mind, have this in your heart.

[00:13:35] Speaker A: That what you’re seeing is a reflection of a thought.

How a thought can work. Just witness that.

[00:13:44] Speaker C: Gosh, there’s so many mantras out there, man. Maybe we could just hold this one for a couple of minutes. Make some observations. And then go on about your day.

[00:13:53] Speaker A: And then I’m going to invite you.

[00:13:55] Speaker C: This is the only time I’m going to invite you. To ever go into a city, dear friends. Because let’s stay breathing the clean air, you know?

[00:14:01] Speaker A: I’m going to invite you to go into a city.

[00:14:04] Speaker C: And go into the busiest part that you can find.

[00:14:08] Speaker A: Do the same exercise.

And realize that what you’re seeing is a thought.

[00:14:16] Speaker C: We dont want to excessively analyze all these things in our life. But lets take a moment to put our skills of rationality to use.

[00:14:24] Speaker A: We can consider and compare those two thoughts. On the one hand, we have a.

[00:14:30] Speaker C: Thought that is capable of autogenesis.

[00:14:34] Speaker A: It completely can renew itself, no matter the circumstance.

On the other, we have a thought.

[00:14:40] Speaker C: Thats continually degrading itself.

[00:14:43] Speaker A: And has to be rebuilt over and over and over again. On the other hand, we have a.

[00:14:51] Speaker C: Thought that supports diversity. Welcomes opposing opinions, views.

[00:14:57] Speaker A: It is syntropy.

[00:14:58] Speaker C: It is harmony. Now, to step back and see everything. First comes from a thought. That city came from a thought. Maybe not the thought of one man, maybe the thought of many men. All those men and those women together. Creating a city. And still creating the city, still actively participating in it. Are devoting themselves to a particular thought and a particular way of thinking.

[00:15:27] Speaker A: And the old grandmother who’s living out.

[00:15:29] Speaker C: In a cabin in the woods is devoting her way of thinking to something completely different.

[00:15:34] Speaker A: And we can see, just by running.

[00:15:37] Speaker C: Along with our imagination with these two scenarios, the vast degree, the striking difference.

[00:15:45] Speaker A: In the quality of the thought, what the thought is able to do, because.

[00:15:51] Speaker C: It really is a thought that generated the two of those things.

[00:15:56] Speaker A: And so we’re at a crossroads, dear friends, to decide how we choose to use our thoughts.

[00:16:03] Speaker C: Every moment is an invitation.

[00:16:05] Speaker A: Which direction are we going to take our thought?

[00:16:08] Speaker C: Am I going to continue to reinforce a doubtful perspective that’s created cities, wars.

[00:16:13] Speaker A: Death, pillaging, raping, incredibly horrible things that.

[00:16:19] Speaker C: Have gone on and still go on? Or am I going to do something new, bold and maybe slightly familiar?

[00:16:27] Speaker A: Am I going to take a step on the path of a life that is cultivating a lifestyle where my thought.

[00:16:35] Speaker C: Reflects creation, actually, where it doesn’t reflect death?

[00:16:40] Speaker D: You’ve left me so inspired with what you’re sharing. Why, I, uh, thank you for sharing.

[00:16:46] Speaker E: What you shared there.

[00:16:47] Speaker D: You’re inspiring me to walk into an.

[00:16:50] Speaker E: Image that’s inviting me to make a choice.

[00:16:54] Speaker D: And the science of imagery is always.

[00:16:56] Speaker E: Asking us to make a choice.

Am I going to invest my God given thought, my thought that creates or.

[00:17:03] Speaker D: Destroys worlds, into that which is taking us into an almighty, destructive direction, or.

[00:17:10] Speaker E: Am I going to invest my thought into that which is alive?

[00:17:16] Speaker D: Highly intelligent, the thought of creator. I look at nature and like you.

[00:17:22] Speaker E: Were alluding to there, Waya.

[00:17:23] Speaker D: This is creator’s thought here, this immaculate.

[00:17:26] Speaker E: Design, this incredible planet earth, her trees, her water, her air.

[00:17:32] Speaker D: This is creator’s thought.

And when I feed my thought into.

[00:17:36] Speaker E: It, I am, um. Just like we discussed in the first podcast episode, there’s this brilliant feedback loop. Because it is intelligent and because it.

[00:17:45] Speaker D: Is alive, it is informing me I’m engaging with life.

[00:17:50] Speaker E: I am not engaging in life.

[00:17:52] Speaker D: When I’m in a city and observing.

[00:17:55] Speaker E: These cars and these screens flashing information at me and advertisements and loud noises and toxic air. Here is another invitation for everybody listening, as well as myself and you, Wyatt. Uh, we are right in this process with you every oh, yeah, it’s real.

Or we are continually being asked to choose which reality are you going to be feeding into? Because these thoughts are creating worlds.

[00:18:25] Speaker C: And this is hard, friends. This is hard. Why? The science of imagery is inviting you to look at the system.

[00:18:32] Speaker A: The system has been designed intentionally to slow thought, and it’s a slippery slope in the world we live in.

[00:18:40] Speaker C: Because it’s a mirage.

You walk and everything is appearing as.

[00:18:45] Speaker A: If it is just alright.

[00:18:47] Speaker C: And this is just how things are. This is just how things always were.

[00:18:53] Speaker A: We’ve always struggled.

We’ve always not had enough.

[00:18:58] Speaker C: We’ve always been fighting with each other.

[00:19:02] Speaker A: And there’s always wars and we’ve always.

[00:19:05] Speaker C: Tried to one up each other.

Those dogmas and many other dogmas and.

[00:19:11] Speaker A: Programs are continually impressed upon our young.

[00:19:16] Speaker C: Children and they, dear friends, were impressed upon you and I. And that’s why this is incredibly difficult. And yet we have this brilliant feedback loop. As Adiana’s saying, deep down inside of us there is and always will be a striving for truth that cannot be extinguished.

[00:19:36] Speaker A: And as much as the system that.

[00:19:39] Speaker C: Has been created thousands of years ago to deliberately separate man from God’s creations via, uh, the disruption of his natural form of thinking, as much as that system wants to try to perfect itself, it will never extinguish that which is alive in all of us.

[00:19:59] Speaker A: Proof of this is in our daily experience.

How many people do we see who are genuinely happy?

[00:20:07] Speaker C: How many families are actually in love? How many people are spiritually fulfilled?

We look around and we don’t think.

[00:20:15] Speaker A: That thought has everything to do with.

[00:20:18] Speaker C: Everything, but it has everything to do with everything.

[00:20:22] Speaker A: And when we start taking these steps, when we start thinking about the science.

[00:20:27] Speaker C: Of imagery and its incredible multifaceted impact on every single facet of our life.

[00:20:36] Speaker D: To add, uh, to what you’re talking.

[00:20:38] Speaker E: About here, Wyatt, uh, let’s think about all the brilliant minds of our time.

Pretty much all of them.

[00:20:46] Speaker D: The Picassos, the Gandhis, the Einsteins.

[00:20:50] Speaker E: They all were independent thinkers. They all thought outside of the collective blueprint.

[00:21:00] Speaker D: They all thought outside of it.

[00:21:03] Speaker E: And it was Einstein himself that said.

[00:21:06] Speaker D: And don’t quote me on this, okay?

[00:21:07] Speaker E: I’m going to try and pool the insight together here.

[00:21:13] Speaker D: It is considered madness when we try.

[00:21:15] Speaker E: To find the solution within the dilemma itself.

So we have an enormous amount of people here and these are good people. These are good hearted men and women that deeply care about life.

[00:21:29] Speaker D: They are looking, they are seeking with their thought fervently.

[00:21:35] Speaker E: They are doing whatever they can do to try and find the solution within the problem. And I’m going to say something that might hurt here.

[00:21:45] Speaker D: It’s not there.

You’re not going to find it.

It’s like trying to find the engine.

[00:21:52] Speaker E: Of a car in the glove compartment, everyone.

[00:21:55] Speaker D: It’s not there.

[00:21:57] Speaker E: It’s going to take walking away from.

[00:22:00] Speaker D: That polluted river stream and walking towards the other stream and taking our, uh.

[00:22:08] Speaker E: God given thought and putting it into something that truly reflects its original intent and its original design.

[00:22:17] Speaker D: And someone might say, how am I.

[00:22:19] Speaker E: Supposed to do that? I’ve been thinking this way this whole.

[00:22:23] Speaker D: Time and I’ve organized my life according.

[00:22:26] Speaker E: To how I think and how I structure things. I’m going to be like my mentor 15 years ago. How is it working for you?

How is it working everyone? I’m not sarcastic.

[00:22:40] Speaker D: I’m being a very loving woman here.

[00:22:43] Speaker E: When I ask that question.

[00:22:44] Speaker D: We’ve got to look at the reality of this situation.

The solution is outside of that murky, muddy river that’s desperately trying to clean itself. The solution is in taking a step.

[00:22:58] Speaker E: Aside and deeply relaxing. And, wyatt, uh, I think it’s important.

[00:23:02] Speaker D: Now to talk about relaxation, distraction and focus.

[00:23:07] Speaker A: Thank you for the invitation, erian, um.

[00:23:09] Speaker C: To continue on with your thought. You’re speaking about how do we step away from that polluted river?

[00:23:15] Speaker A: Well, I think the first thing to.

[00:23:17] Speaker C: Establish is that you’re unhappy. I’m unhappy.

[00:23:20] Speaker A: Why is that important to establish?

[00:23:22] Speaker C: It’s important to establish because from that point, like Erin was saying, the solution is not in the problem.

[00:23:29] Speaker A: So it’s not a dead end that.

[00:23:31] Speaker C: You’Re unhappy that I’m unhappy.

[00:23:34] Speaker A: It’s actually an invitation because you know.

[00:23:38] Speaker C: That there’s something else. So you are inspired to move somewhere.

[00:23:43] Speaker A: You’Re wanting to move.

[00:23:44] Speaker C: What is inspiration? The movement of energy. So now, all of a sudden, within you, there is a living desire.

[00:23:51] Speaker A: So we’re going to cultivate first that living desire. One thing that can happen with these.

[00:23:55] Speaker C: Living desires that we have within our souls is like young, excited hearts who are in love.

[00:24:02] Speaker A: Sometimes we move too fast and we.

[00:24:06] Speaker C: Create constrains and constrictions from the original problem mindset that we are coming into the solution with.

[00:24:14] Speaker A: And because of that, we are not.

[00:24:16] Speaker C: Able to fully relax.

[00:24:18] Speaker A: What do I say when I mean.

[00:24:19] Speaker C: Fully relaxed with our thought.

[00:24:21] Speaker A: First, I’m going to take us on.

[00:24:22] Speaker C: A quick little journey to realize that thought is not programmable.

Even all of these programs, that these men and women over the centuries who have spent their lives devising systems to.

[00:24:35] Speaker A: Inhibit thought, still we’re unhappy. And if the program was really successful, we wouldn’t even know that we weren’t unhappy. But we know thought is not programmable. It is not mappable.

[00:24:51] Speaker C: It is spontaneous creation. It unfolds like a flower. Do you know how the flower is going to unfold tomorrow? I don’t.

[00:25:00] Speaker A: I just know that it’s going to unfold.

[00:25:02] Speaker C: I can trust that the flowers can unfold with spring.

[00:25:06] Speaker A: So when we relax with our thought.

[00:25:07] Speaker C: What happens is we invite the organic, the natural, the God given way of thinking to emerge, because all by itself, it wants so badly to make itself known.

[00:25:21] Speaker A: And there’s actually not a moment within.

[00:25:24] Speaker C: Each of our lives where it is not making itself known. In fact, that making itself known is the realization of the unhappiness.

[00:25:32] Speaker A: So we are able to realize that.

[00:25:34] Speaker C: We are unhappy because something in us.

[00:25:36] Speaker A: Is striving for something else. And through that striving, we have to.

[00:25:43] Speaker C: Learn to relax with that and trust it.

[00:25:46] Speaker A: And in a mind where we’re going.

[00:25:48] Speaker C: To try to fixate and map out and program and any other word that.

[00:25:53] Speaker A: Means confinement, our, uh, thought is not.

[00:25:56] Speaker C: Going to be able to operate at the speed that it needs to, at the efficiency that it needs to.

[00:26:02] Speaker E: We cannot see the origins of the.

[00:26:06] Speaker D: Dilemmas when we are so distracted, when we are in fear, when our thought is so preoccupied in survival and coping and analyzing, taking a step back, breathing.

[00:26:23] Speaker E: And relaxing and letting yourself be informed.

[00:26:27] Speaker D: By the natural world, by reality. When we think we’re striving and doing.

[00:26:34] Speaker E: This alone, we cut off that feedback loop, everyone.

We cut off that engagement, that relation, that communication between ourselves and life. Reality. Reality is also intelligent and alive.

[00:26:47] Speaker D: When we treat it that way, we.

[00:26:50] Speaker E: Can find the solutions.

[00:26:51] Speaker D: We have to step out of the chronic distraction of our thought, out of the inflammation of our resistance to be loved and held and supported by life.

When we take a step back and deeply relax into presence and into being.

[00:27:11] Speaker E: With our thought as a living and.

[00:27:13] Speaker D: Breathing being that it is, we will see the solutions and we will be.

[00:27:21] Speaker E: Able to see the origins.

[00:27:23] Speaker D: Now, I know people have spent their entire life ruminating, coping, strategizing, stressing, and not finding the origins and the solutions.

And I’ve seen these patterns be passed down to their children.

It becomes a multi generational pattern here.

Are we really going to let this happen, everyone?

[00:27:47] Speaker E: Are we really going to continue? Again?

[00:27:49] Speaker D: Here’s another choice, another invitation.

Are we really going to let this.

[00:27:54] Speaker E: Happen when all we need to do is take a very deep breath, take.

[00:27:58] Speaker D: A step back and let ourselves see from a much wider and bigger perspective?

[00:28:06] Speaker E: It’s so hard to do that when we’re in the moment of distraction and fear and hyper analyzing.

[00:28:12] Speaker D: And so here is a call to action.

[00:28:16] Speaker E: We’re inviting everybody here, myself and Wyatt.

[00:28:19] Speaker D: Included, where we take the time from now until the next episode, where we.

[00:28:25] Speaker E: Look at this relationship we have with our thought.

Where are we ruminating, coping, strategizing, stressing, trying to find the solution within the dilemma itself.

[00:28:37] Speaker D: Where is that happening?

And also where are you stepping back.

[00:28:44] Speaker E: Relaxing your body, thought and nervous system.

[00:28:48] Speaker D: Letting yourself see and hold a bigger perspective.

[00:28:52] Speaker E: Letting yourself be informed by the living and breathing and intelligent reality that we all are in. That’s always communicating with us. It’s a different language and to hear it and understand it, we must slow down. This is accessible, available for all of us.

[00:29:14] Speaker C: This is the science of imagery podcast where we are building a community of people shaping life with their thought.
