[00:00:00][music] >> Hey, man. Hey, man.

[00:00:02]What is this? Uh it's a rock. No, it's not.

[00:00:05]>> [music] >> What do you mean? Rock is just a word we use to describe the abstract concept of what a rock is, but >> [music] >> what is it really? Um granite. But what is that made of? Atoms and [music] protons and neutrons. But what are those made of? Quarks and energy, right?

[00:00:20]Exactly. [music] And that's what everything's made of.

[00:00:23]The division is just in our minds. Well, yeah, but we can't [music] just look around at the world and say that's quarks and that's quarks and that's quarks. We have to have names for things. Yeah, but they don't really exist.

[00:00:35]>> [music] >> They're just words. Everything is the same stuff. Well, everything except for nothing. But nothing is just the abstract concept we invented to mean nonexistence. So, you're saying nothing doesn't exist. Exactly. [music] But also that no thing actually does exist.

[00:00:53]Right. But then the entire universe, everyone who's ever lived, everything and nothing [music] are all just the same thing. And words can't even begin to describe the beauty of what it all really is.

[00:01:06]Well, yeah.

[00:01:07]Oh. Right.

[00:01:12]Very, very good. There's so much I could say about that. I could talk for hours and I do go into these things in great depth in my upcoming Spirit Gym book series. We're going to be releasing volume one soon, but I've had my Spirit Gym online training program running now for 89 weeks. We have a sangha, a meeting with the students every week, and I get deep into these exact concepts. They're making very, very important points. One of the key things I'd like to point out is that it's words as descriptors that actually divide things and create the illusion of a reality. For example, we have had for a long time issues of racial bias, but people forget that black, white, this color, that color, those are all just descriptors, but we're all human. We're all brothers and sisters. We're all from the same planet, from the same solar system, from the same universe. And if you take off the skin and you go to a in a as as is classical in a cadaver lab, you would be hard-pressed to tell who is Christian, who's Muslim, who's Chinese, or African, or whatever, unless you had very advanced anatomy skills. A very, very skilled anatomist could do it by looking at things such as jaw angles and things like that. But, the reality is is that the words actually have a tendency to become concretized in the mind as something real. But, really they're just labels, and we need to be very careful because, especially in a scientific, materialistic, techno-fascistic environment, where words are being used to manipulate people and divide them all the time, we have to be aware that the word is actually just pointing to something. For example, if you're reading a book and it's talking about Spot the cat, who is being chased by the dog, you create the image in your mind of Spot the cat being chased by the dog, but neither Spot the cat or the dog is actually there. We just use the words to create an image or a perception, which we do to divide things from the whole because you can't perceive the whole. You can't perceive all of everything at once. It's impossible. This is why a long, long time ago the alchemists used the term for the mind logos cutter. And if you look in tarot, the symbol for the air element, which is the element of mind in tarot, is the sword. Logos cutter, logos means divine plan, cutter, you have to cut it. You have to say, "Look at the black cat, not the white cat. Look at my wife, not my son." So, when we are dividing the whole and giving labels and making the assumption that we know who somebody is, what they believe, what their values are, what their choices are, what their intentions are based on labels, then we're objectifying somebody and turning them into an object instead of a human being or a living thing, which is what materialists do all the time, and Bill Gates is doing that to the entire planet and trying to auction it off to the highest bidder, if you haven't noticed, which is devastating to nature, and I can go on and on. But, we also want to remember that everything in the world, be it the tree, the rock itself, is also a symbol, and by definition, a symbol is something that has a transcendent function. It means it's pointing to something else. If you point to a human being and say that's Bob, and that's as far as you go, you don't realize that the word Bob is just a symbol for something inside of him, which is uniquely Bob, which is the essence of Bob, or the spirit and soul of Bob, which you cannot ever get to know unless you spend time in relationship. So, when you look, as these guys did, at the fact that everything material is made of atoms, and atoms are like 99.999 to like the 12th decimal point empty, so very much no thing, and that most people believe, that are religious, that God's unconditional love, and something that's unconditional cannot be objectified by any label or even sign or symbol, because it transcends limitation.

[00:05:19]Therefore, what we call God is, we can say, infinite, but in order for God to have a relationship with itself, it has to dream itself into the finite. So, my body creates a perception of limitation.

[00:05:31]A great book that goes into this quite beautifully and deeply, it's not a a light read for those who don't have any esoteric or metaphysical understanding, is The World as Icon by Henry Corbin.

[00:05:42]It's a beautiful and very powerful book.

[00:05:44]My My point is we need to be very conscious of words because words can be very very misleading and often have many definitions. One of the most common examples I could give is people refer to Jesus the man of Nazareth as Jesus Christ and don't realize that what they're saying is actually not what they think they're saying. The words Jesus and Christ are one is the name of a person, the other one is actually a signifier or what we might call a title for one who has achieved unity with the all or achieve God consciousness for which there's many different names in various spiritual practices. For example, this shelf is all full of dictionaries, thesauruses, encyclopedias of ideas and a wide variety of reference books of many different types from many different cultures. I've got dictionaries of Buddhist terms, Sufi terms, philosophical, theosophical. I've got the essential dictionary of science and on it goes, dictionaries of mythology, gods and demons. Why? Because I do a lot of dream analysis for people and when they have issues come up in a dream such as a black dragon, I like to look at the historical record of what black dragons symbolize, etc. etc. But if you look at this excellent book, the metaphysical Bible dictionary by Charles Fillmore, there's approximately 11 definitions of what the word Christ means, almost all of which very few Christians have any idea about and so you get a word in your head and you believe it and it often leads to people fighting over things, none of which Christ would ever support. Here's a very rare, hard-to-find book that I've used as a tool, a resource countless times, the Theosophical Glossary by H. D.

[00:07:39]Blavatsky. And here I can look up words like Akasha or soul or spirit or Brahman or Parabrahman and get very very sound descriptions of them so that I know exactly what I'm talking about or writing about and you know here's an esoteric metaphysical dictionary. This book here I really recommend if you want a great book that'll blow your head wide open when you start looking into words it's by Pao Chang Word Magic Born Again and there's just some excellent [clears throat] beautiful clarifications and when you start studying these types of books like I have for my entire career because I take my responsibility as a teacher guide therapist and leader to my heart I don't want to mislead people or myself you start to realize that people have almost no knowledge of the words they're using but I would like to point out that does not change the power of the effect of the word in other words if you say a word even if you don't know what it means the vibration is causing an effect it's literally creating a change in the entire universe if you really want to get right down to it so it's important to realize the power of words but what's even more im- powerful than any word is the intention behind the use of the word. You can say I love you to somebody but mean it sarcastically to not mean I love you at all therefore the word love even though the word itself carries power is packaged in and carries the energy of the intention of how it is used. So if your intention is to live and love fully learn and grow then that would be the first step to putting some time and energy into making sure you understand the words you're using so that the magic of the word becomes magical and you're not doing black magic to yourself or other people without realizing it and accumulating the karmic effects of that because the reality of the universe is that it really has no beginning or end. Every time we build a bigger telescope, we go, "My God, it's bigger than we thought it was." But as a remote viewer and someone who studies these things deeply without a long to do, you'll find that because the universe is the dream of God, there is no beginning or end to it. Which means, well, let me give you a definition of God. God is an intelligible sphere whose circumference is nowhere and a center whose presence is everywhere. So, what that means is that there is no edge to the universe, but each being that can say I am is a center and therefore whatever you put out has no choice but to come back to you, which is why I say love is a boomerang. Because if you look in the sky and you look at what the big telescopes show us, everything's moving in spiral patterns like a vortex. So, just like when you flush the toilet, anything on the outside gets sucked right down the middle, when you throw the boomerang, it comes back to you. So, having loving, honest, clear intentions for yourself, for each other, and for life, understanding the power of the words you're using and using them in ways that are life-affirmative, dream-affirmative, relationship-affirmative, love-affirmative, and with the intention of creating something beautiful that's good for you and good for everybody is how we actually grow together, heal together, and make this world transition one of something beautiful, giving birth to something that's best for everybody involved and all living beings involved, including the entirety of Mother Nature.

[00:11:18]So, enjoy Word Magic by Pow Chawng and invest the time in a dictionary and study etymology, the roots of words, and use your intention and your knowledge of words to create freedom in your life.
