    I love him. He says so much of what I feel and think every time I listen to him

    57:49 This kind of beautiful, graceful, deeply respectful response is exactly what seems to be missing from current discourse. This sort of open, thoughtful handling of a rather esoteric topic feels like a sign of wise intelligence and has a way of making me feel that, despite appearances, everything really is going to be okay :). Thank you both for this wonderful interview.

    I seeks for truth
    And find it’s like a moving sky
    More like my grandparent’s dreams
    Swim up my spine
    Like salmons in the wild
    Let each person have the freedom to choose the way and truth about the scared and the divine to create what is true, beautiful and good to their own values and beliefs ❤

    primary mapping, process, and meaning grounded in agency and relevance realization. Relevance transcends 'nothing buttery'.

    Thank you for sharing your years or experience 🎉 it makes sense from both sides of the brain, it’s all good until it’s not.

    The host is not oriented either to authentically discuss let slone experience the sacred. Just stating the obvious: without some method of reversing the analytical processes, as in meditation, contemplation or prayer, one cannot absorb into Unity the many different parts. And just your overall vibration makes it obvious you are not in that moment suitable to discuss the thing you are discussing! That's why Iain at one point said Sorry to discuss the sacred in such a glib way! Anyway, I'm mean. Now meditate in reverse the analytical processes of the left brain, and return to unity and sense!
    Peace
