The problem in life is narcissism. It’s not that some people are more beautiful or stronger or talented, it’s narcissism that tricks others to be giving to them, but they only take. The end. This was good, and I want to point out narcissism is what triggers all bullshit for humans. Period.
I wouldn't be alive today after the hell I've been through for the last seven years if Divine Intervention had not protected me which IS in the universe. There's PLENTY of life in the universe.
I had an alcoholic, narcissistic mother that was extremely critical of me and always telling I was somehow more frail than other children. My father was in the military and he had a hair trigger temper. I was anxious and depressed from a very early age. My life has been one anxiety producing episode after the next. I don’t know remember anyone reaching out to help me. That is what has made me feel totally alone at sea all my life. I am the only constant so I have to bear the responsibility for the failure of my life. What you say is true, but I don’t think I am going to make it to I am worthy this time around. I am 77. May you reach people who are still salvageable. Yes, people often dislike me for no apparent reason and that must come from my energy., which for the most part I am unaware of. Just watched a movie that raked it all up. Wish I hadn’t.
I'm in a 12 step program which addresses family dysfunction ( and addictions ). I'm 81 y/o, and never felt more complete. There is ALWAYS hope, whether we're aware of it, or not. 🏩

@@donnacharles7348 yes. Rumi said that, and I agree. Thanks for your best wishes. I have only made it this far because of spiritual teachers and Echhart Tolle, Ram Das, and all the others who helped a great deal. I have never had a person to support me. Not my parents, not my ex husband who constantly put me down first forty years because I didn’t have a good way to support myself. I finally left and while working I was able to stay afloat with the help of affordable housing. I have worked my way through agoraphobia, social phobia, OCD, etc. I even managed to put to rest the flashbacks that haunted me for thirty years by speaking for the first time to a therapist. The more I allowed myself to self to acknowledge that it happened the less it could torture me. I worked 26 years in a hospital and it was very stressful. But I got up and went to work in spite of it. I moved across the country at retirement in order find a lower cost of living, because my income was in the poverty level range. I worked a part time job for two years for a woman who yelled evidently had psychological issues and made my life hell. After two years of that I left. After seven years, there was no longer a safe apartment I could rent. In the end, I ended going back to my original state, which did not have any available housing and ended up living with my ex who spent the first year punishing me for divorcing him. My chronic anxiety and lack of confidence which began with my parents constant criticism, and then reinforced by one person after the next has never been given a space to recover. I am forced to take medication to give me a break from the anxiety. Others have their glass of wine, or beer, or other alcoholic drinks for relief from anxiety. I don’t and won’t drink. If, someday I can find a person to support and be supported by, with a safe place to live that I can afford and maybe a group to belong to, I think I can beat the anxiety into submission. I have not played the victim nor do I want to. I think Dr Doty got it right. I am doing alright right at this time. Former husband has calmed down. He is 84 this month. He has COPD. He almost died last spring. I try to be in the moment and not dwell on homelessness happening literally in a heartbeat. So, if you prefer to think that anxiety is a bad habit, so be it.

Glib and trite but take it or leave it. For me, I have never had anxiety but my twin has his whole life and still struggles. Nutrition obviously and sleep are the two pillars of health and you will never take care of others better than how well you can care for yourself--if you think you can god bless you. You want to stop having anxiety, then give your body what it evolved to have, the daily experience of real training, and the nightly experience of real rest. You have anxiety, that is fine, have anxiety there isnt much you can do about it without addressing those two things in my mind, take advice from others on how to actually see physical, mental and spiritual daily progress, and how to rest and recover everynight, but above all you must be open and curiouse to seek a unique path to such things in a way that you can actually honestly say to yourself that what you are doing feels right and is of a perfect intensity that learning is optemized FOR YOU. You alone decide what is working or not, and if you really want to be at peace and actually relax and be free from anxiety, you must learn how to train (all parts of you) and rest and recover maximally--again, according to you. Auto regulation is king some say in the lifting world, take it one day at a time. And my personal emphasis on this, and this is actually the hardest thing for people with anxiety to do from what I see, and without real training and rest is impossible, and is what some religous scriptures mean when they say you must be as a child to enter into heaven (while on earth), YOU MUST BE SEPERATE FROM YOUR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS, BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT THEM EXACTLY, YOU JUST EXPERIENCE THEM--LET YOURSELF FORGET AND FORGIVE FREELY--CHILDREN KNOW THIS NATURALLY.
This is my first exposure to this gentleman, so I’m basing my comment on solely this interview. I find it ironic and sad that he has evolved regarding his purpose and what’s important in this life, emotionally beyond where I am, but he is blind to his spiritual nature. I believe that he is a spirit having a human experience and is missing so much of the point of this life and awareness of our interconnectedness. We each still have time to live and learn. 😊 I can appreciate how he is helping others!
I very much hear and understand what Dr. Doty is saying as I work in adult education where I see everyday how the way you see yourself has real physical change and outcomes. The way of the mind is an enormous powerhouse for every human on this planet. But I also have to say even though I can’t prove the spiritual things that have happened to me but I can see their presence. This could be discounted as randomness but when you do the math on probability you find the level of randomness defies the maths particularly once you get to middle age it somehow increases. So the universe I feel is a whole intelligence of its own but I also feel we have all that intelligence inside us. I say feel because as strange and spooky and unexplainable as this sounds I actually feel it like a biological feeling. It has been this feeling I think has opened my brain up to think out a problem in a way I was never able to do when younger. Is this wisdom? Maybe but as much as I feel I am the author of my own wisdom I feel like it was also revealed unto me by the universe. That makes me feel connected. I used to feel lonely and isolated from a young age but I don’t feel that now that I recognise my life is part of revealings to me. The universe has intelligence and mystery I can’t really fathom but I feel privileged to be a part of it despite the sadnesses that have happened. I can’t explain why feelings exist but the feeling of being connected to the universe even though I can’t explain how that happens is like something that feels solid or makes you feel grounded more rational and does feed positivity. But there is a lot of sense in what the Doctor says but for me I have found there is an even bigger and brighter picture out there too. I defiantly think we are all designed to access that part too.
Think its a great mistake not to realise God in truth, is closer to psychology than the great or lesser world religions. Psyche workers need to understand this & be more wholistic in their assistance.
Just get clear on what you want and how you feel. Live that truth in every moment ruthlessly if you have to. Let people paint you as a villain if that’s what it takes. Just dismiss anything and anyone else’s opinion of that. Do you unapologetically. Put focus on what you want enough and you’ll find a way. Most importantly, do not ever quit whatever you do. Break down if you need to but always recommit. Focus on your wins, life always fluctuates. You may interpret that as ”selfish gen z new wave western psuedo-spiritual indoctrination” but if you do, ask yourself if you’d rather live YOUR life or other people’s? You have 24h in a day, how do you want to spend that day? And the rest of your life. What do you want to focus on. This is what has worked for me.
@swagsurfer03 Whether you "believe" or not, you're right. Our minds perceive reality the way we think it is. To know this, one must go beyond the mind to awareness.
The dr is a life saver and your interview style is refreshing as you make it about your guest not you and you don’t try to control the direction that way who no’s where it goes
You have some very good points about parents lacking coping skills, and forgiving them. Also, the science related to the body. Habit formation, Repetition, points out the self focused mindset, overcoming by serving others, having gratitude
Yes. I was glad to discover somatic methods and find them really useful. You don't have to think about them, or "relax against your will" :-), you just do them.
I find that going to the beach and finding a very calm cove, then floating on my back for around 45 minutes, rests the nervous system, especially if the water is a bit cool.
Dude you did not have to hammer the guy with the alcohol question right off the bat. Should have built it up naturally with discussion around his childhood. Seems very inconsiderate.
I agree completely with you on that. This isn’t a therapy session..it’s an interview. To throw such an intrusive question at the beginning was uncalled for.
The "guy" is a grown up man with what seems the required emotional balance and sharp intellect to express any inconvenience that would be presented to him... We appreciate your concerns but clearly here they are not relevant.
Thank you both , I have been fascinated by interviews of Dr. Doty , and have ordered his books and reading them, while I 100% agree with you Dr. Doty, it just came to mind that the argument of "in order to manifest your intentions, it has to serve humanity for it to work ", how does one explains those who commit serial acts of evil , imagine the types of evils, though their intentions has nothing to do with humanity or service to it, why are many of such evil minded individuals are "successful" in manifesting their intentions? thanks for your response
I don t think that multi generational communities were without problems, supporting with loving care. There was also a lot of suppression, what you were born in you stay in etc.
What I would do differently: I would not assume that listeners have read the guest's book. This way, I would avoid creating a partial picture. The continuous reference to unknown facts created frustration for me, just like being presented with some pieces of a puzzle.
The distrust that comes from being decieved or bullied online...is causing emotional distress especially in the young. Be sure to relate to others in real life - above screenlife...& minimise watching neg material online. We need to truly experience our 3D reality- & not get sucked into imagination.
Loved, “Into the Magic Shop.” I will be looking to buy your book. It is so good to hear compassion, understanding, practicality. And knowing if I don’t quite make the cut, it’s ok.
We are God, only God can create , we are creating our lives daily. We are God disguising ourselves as humans to show us all the path we need to follow to teach us all how to find bliss, we find bliss when we awaken. God is creating his own suffering to help all those parts of himself who are lost in their illusionary selves (being human) that it's time for us all we need to awaken! ( We = God) put ourselves to sleep to live within this human illusionary world = (the dream the suffering), to show everyone who they truly are and awakening is coming back to God to our true selves , ( suffer little children to come unto me ) We are God's little children ( his creation) it's all God creating everything including us! AMEN ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Incredible and profound interview, especially enjoyed Dr dissecting 'common' spiritual and religious indoctrinations of our times. Great critical question to Dr @ 1:13:59, and his dispelling the false narratives of 'manifesting' many of us are likely tired of. And Dr's final words that he leaves us with, meant to guide us to our purpose on earth; to truly contribute ourselves to others during our time here.
Great interview. Enjoyed it very much. A lot of Truths that can help many find ways to achieve their niche in life. Learnt a lot from your perspective. Thank you for a great show.
The last time I saw the Dalai Lama, he tried to tongue kiss a little child live on stage in front of the whole world. His team tried to explain it away. Dr JD, I hope you can find it in your heart to shed some tears for that little child and the many others…
Enlighten Beings are living in "present moment, " which means there's no past or future, not unlike our first seven years of life. This is very liberating and playful. It's not an excuse, but an explanation.
I have had a number of premonitory dreams that came true shortly afterwards that proved to me something is out there communicating with us. There was no way I could have known these events would happen and yet they did.
just a bit of constructive criticism, the wobbly screen change is really annoying and distracting, it should be a cut we hardly notice. Good video though.
Must disagree with the esteemed and well respected Dr. Doty. The Universe does care and for some reason the Universe knew that he needed a Ruth in his life and that he would make the most of what she taught and so it was. I have experienced too many times that, it wasn't synchronicity, that the Universe has given just what I needed. Not what I most wanted, but always what I needed.
The laws of nature does Not care about the welfare of humans. However, the designer, implementer, and sustainer of Life and the laws of nature...cares about the welfare of humans.
@MD-bu3xc I agree with you. Present science is too orthodox having its own superstitions what most of the scientists & doctors think .They are in matrix ,may divine is wise enough to give insight who is capable to understand wisdom (and is pure enough on many lifetimes kind ,compassionate acts purifying karmic layers) Only those great scientists like Tesla , Oppenheimer have been able to go beyond and have become spiritual .So is the true with steve Jobs , mark zukerberg , richard alpert (Ram dass Harvard professor) have had glimpse of this. Universe must be intelligent there is no way. Unfortunately present objective science due to its inherent limitations cannot grasp it so they deny it.
God in the most simple of terms definitely seems to have care and mercy on us hence we are happily living and breathing practically unconsciously more then 50% of my time , I can't speak for everyone else but ysB glad to have this video as an outlet, thank you
Wonderful interview! Thank you. And thank you for letting your guest speak to without interruption. I learned a lot and felt a little hope. I didn't agree with everything this doctor shared but i think he had good intentions.
I agree mostly on what the doctor said. But the doctor is speaking from a very materialistic, left brained, Western worldview. Poopooing the transcendent, leave his teaching/viewpoint incomplete. Yes, God of religion is childish, but God, as the Infinite Intelligence, more complete, in my opinion.
I wasted so many hours watching videos trying to bring my vibration up to higher level. Trying to make contact with my spirit guides or my guardian angels. I don’t see any light and I don’t feel any vibrations or energy. I feel like I’m not getting anywhere, but I try to be positive and it’s just getting me nowhere.
For me, it is safer to seek spiritual experience in an established religious tradition. For the rest, maybe give yourself a break and don't overthink all this. Some things take practice. I don't believe in a magical manifesting universe but I do think Dr Doty has some useful science to impart, eg on intention and attention. Obviously relaxation techniques, good food and exercise, gratitude and so on are good habits to form. None of this is easy in a negative striving culture so go easy on yourself. Best of luck
If I may.. and hope it doesnt undermine your efforts. But it appears you’re trying to get somewhere or achieve some thing. So there is want. And want is the problem. Its a state of being. So if when it feels like nothing. Accept that as all it is. If you can realise that you will get the peace. Its humbling, peaceful and safe to be a spec in time and trust the whole big flow. No prizes no sparkles just the undenying presence of creation doing its thing. Its not understanding. That comes clearly when we pass on. I think. Whilst here, we just work pn trusting things with less fear. I hope this helps.
Ooops. To clarify. Want is not the state of being! Meditation is. Dont want to get that bit wrong! And be patient. Its called spiritual practice. Works hust lime pushups. Eventually youre doing 30.
Wonderful hearing the interview with one of my favorite dear friends, the lovely Jams Doty. Thank you for sharing this wisdom, we are very appreciative of this teaching and we look forward to other inspirational projects! Nomi 💖🙏
the manifesting thing for me anyway, seems to swing on the hinges, of what we think about we bring about…. the thoughts we have are energetic and since apparently this world exists as it does, because of energy waves and frequencies, it makes sense to this current understanding i have of it, then personal realities truly do depend on the frequencies our thoughts emit… coming to this point of self awareness is the tricky part; especially when our starts are skewed by trauma, abuse, neglect and our own personal makeup like being a Highly Sensitive and/or ADHD or autistic… that makes things extra exceptionally tricky… this is a great discussion …. the constant stress is definitely unnatural and certainly skews our natural abilities to express nurture, joy, connections and community…
I lived in former USSR under socialistic regime and I can assure people who have tendency not to like capitalism, capitalism 70% better. I came to America when I was 40 in 1992. I can tell that America was and still is for me the best thing that happen to me in my life. I am terrify that with the tendency to replace capitalistic system with socialism in a future I had to live under socialistic regime again.
I have to disagree. I was raised in a multigenerational house. And it was awful. Then you have the two older generations abusing you. Because the trauma passes from one generation to the next. It makes it way worse. And the universe does care. The universe sent me horses. My family never did that. They only abused me.
The human mechanics of living in fear is part of the Spirit having a human experience. a natural process. on Earth. Success is within 🗝 Values, when the student is ready the teacher will appear🙏 Will power perspective. the Universe. asks "are you. Willing? a solo journey within. destiny is what happens when life chooses. for "you" most important 🦉 Wisdom. Is. Non judgements. Of Self❤ compassionate of Self. meeting Ones needs building a solid foundation. Trust in Self. Be Peace 💜🫀🏡🌎
I find it difficult that the good doctor doesn't subscribe to a higher power. His explanation of god in tribal sense is a bit shallow in my view. God, in the religious sense, is also very childish. But god, as the transcendent, is experiential. God/nature/Emptiness exists in my experience Very good interview. .
Way off on the roots of spirituality since he seems to conflate religion to power and hierarchy. Better to think of the four functions of myth by Joseph Campbell to see why myths/religions are endemic in humans. It’s fashionable to dismiss religion, and it has many faults, but there are beautiful concepts that don’t need to be tossed out so glibly. Spirituality is in religions. Trading religious practices for non hierarchical one doesn’t mean the older traditions are useless. I too am spiritual and have multiple practices and a traditional association, and do t find them in opposition. His thoughts on traditional religion are way too general. Otherwise, a decent conversation.
Agree. I've just replied to someone saying they are trying to connect to spirit guides. I don't think some of these gurus should be advising this to their audiences, they don't know what they're suggesting, maybe to vulnerable people, and I really worry that this practice can cause real harm.
Thank you for this information was very helpful. Although, his statement that “the universe doesn’t care about you” and his reference to higher powers, although may have some truth to them, the attitude that he is promoting and the way he states his views as fact is really just the same coping mechanism that religion uses to express the unknown. I would really like to inspire Dr. Doty to express a more honest view that is that we don’t really know either way… I mean, from my perspective, just the fact that we care is evidence enough that the universe cares because we are part of that same life force. Thank you for this program and I thank Dr. Doty for his insights..
What he means is that the universe doesn't care how you live your life, if you're happy or not, "successful" or not "a good person" or not, ect... Does things are meaningless when it comes to the grandious of the universe. We spend so much energy thinking about those things when in reality those things are trivial.
@@kalprao I understand, from what I know life itself has no inherent meaning and we are the ones that give meaning to life. Yet, because we give meaning to life and our ancestors have built on that meaning is still proof enough that there are forces at play that do care for our wellbeing. so I still don't think his statement is in full truth. Thank you so much for your viewpoint. Be well.
I know a sure fire way to manifest: be lucky enough to have been born with the genetics which give you the aptitude and ability to achieve what you desire. Works unfailingly every time.
I really don’t like the concept of manifestation. We are constantly manifesting, as the doctor says, but it’s not something we do consciously, and most of what we manifest are not things/situations we realize we need. We might manifest something that seems, on the surface, to be absolutely terrible, but it’s something we need for reasons we may not currently understand and may never be able to understand. I do know that the more we try to control, i.e., “manifest” in the context the host is using, the worse off we are. The more we want something, the less likely we are to get it. And certainly, when we are focused on “manifesting” the things our patriarchal, capitalist society tells us will make us happy, we cannot possibly become content and fulfilled. Humans need very little in the way of material things. We need food, water and, in some cases, shelter. More than any of those things though, we need connection. And the more stuff we have, the more elusive connection becomes. So while you’re spending your energy trying to “manifest” a nice car, a big house, and lots of money, you’re actually pushing away that which you need even more than air, water and food.
Thank you both. My experience: Feeling is healing ~ Connecting with 'The Creator ( an entity which I can't see feel , or touch ), and the belief - One for all, and all for one.
Estimated global population: 1000 BCE: 50 million 0 : 170 million 1800 CE : 1 Billion 1970 : 3,695,390,336 2024 CE : 8,019,876,189 25% don't have anyone to talk to about suffering?
Dr. Doty lack of a spiritual connection and experiences, does not disavow other humans personal relationship with God. However, Doty does have some great insights into the human condition.
Even the alcoholics and druggies deserve some kind of elation that our bodies and minds need. The right now time and space moment. Yeah man, some love and authenticity be cool too 😎.
I doubt the approach described would have made the guy find happiness. I would say that’s a false claim. Most people who live in fear states. - did not experience a loving parental figure. So trying to access that experience as described will not work. I very much agree with the victim-shaming though, that’s rampant and probably the main business model used by life coaches and manifestation gurus.,. This whole ‘be of service’ thing however is just a big trap and it’s the same BS all religions use. It’s always someone driving a porche telling others they need to be of service… I’m so sick of that phrase!!
The interviewer's gut punch re alcohol was unusually insensitive. That's a serious topic, and the Dr. grew up a trauma victim. RESPECT. Whether you agree with his perspective or not, at least --the very LEAST-- give respect.
I'm so sorry to hear that- are you right handed? If so, perhaps it might help to begin practicing to use your left hand more. I once broke 2 fingers on my right hand and had to use my left hand more - it was hard but you can learn.
It's not that the universe doesn’t care; the universe is malevolent. Earth was created by God as our Eden. Our chance to grow spiritually and translocate to a better place. Some people choose compassion, kindness and prayer, some people choose the opposite. It's the choices you make; the universe doesn’t care: God does.
The problem in life is narcissism. It’s not that some people are more beautiful or stronger or talented, it’s narcissism that tricks others to be giving to them, but they only take. The end. This was good, and I want to point out narcissism is what triggers all bullshit for humans. Period.
This is also the problem with American politics from both sides.

Never heard of either of these men, however this was a very good -REAL podcast. I appreciate the authenticity.
Agreed. 👏
Same here.
This is my first exposure to this gentleman, so I’m basing my comment on solely this interview.
I find it ironic and sad that he has evolved regarding his purpose and what’s important in this life, emotionally beyond where I am, but he is blind to his spiritual nature. I believe that he is a spirit having a human experience and is missing so much of the point of this life and awareness of our interconnectedness. We each still have time to live and learn. 😊
I can appreciate how he is helping others!
Intellectual analysis of the universe is making this fine man a novice of life.
It’s his journey- this is great information for others on their journey.
I would love to hear what he has to say about all of this in about 10 years.
What does that even mean?
I very much hear and understand what Dr. Doty is saying as I work in adult education where I see everyday how the way you see yourself has real physical change and outcomes. The way of the mind is an enormous powerhouse for every human on this planet. But I also have to say even though I can’t prove the spiritual things that have happened to me but I can see their presence. This could be discounted as randomness but when you do the math on probability you find the level of randomness defies the maths particularly once you get to middle age it somehow increases. So the universe I feel is a whole intelligence of its own but I also feel we have all that intelligence inside us. I say feel because as strange and spooky and unexplainable as this sounds I actually feel it like a biological feeling. It has been this feeling I think has opened my brain up to think out a problem in a way I was never able to do when younger. Is this wisdom? Maybe but as much as I feel I am the author of my own wisdom I feel like it was also revealed unto me by the universe. That makes me feel connected. I used to feel lonely and isolated from a young age but I don’t feel that now that I recognise my life is part of revealings to me. The universe has intelligence and mystery I can’t really fathom but I feel privileged to be a part of it despite the sadnesses that have happened. I can’t explain why feelings exist but the feeling of being connected to the universe even though I can’t explain how that happens is like something that feels solid or makes you feel grounded more rational and does feed positivity. But there is a lot of sense in what the Doctor says but for me I have found there is an even bigger and brighter picture out there too. I defiantly think we are all designed to access that part too.
Think its a great mistake not to realise God in truth, is closer to psychology than the great or lesser world religions. Psyche workers need to understand this & be more wholistic in their assistance.
Small actions can have a huge impact...and we may never know. That really hit me. Thank you both for the beautiful conversation.
Just get clear on what you want and how you feel. Live that truth in every moment ruthlessly if you have to. Let people paint you as a villain if that’s what it takes. Just dismiss anything and anyone else’s opinion of that. Do you unapologetically.
Put focus on what you want enough and you’ll find a way. Most importantly, do not ever quit whatever you do. Break down if you need to but always recommit. Focus on your wins, life always fluctuates.
You may interpret that as ”selfish gen z new wave western psuedo-spiritual indoctrination” but if you do, ask yourself if you’d rather live YOUR life or other people’s? You have 24h in a day, how do you want to spend that day? And the rest of your life. What do you want to focus on.
This is what has worked for me.
The universe doesn't care? We are the universe.
You are so wise. The doctor is very profound, but the materialistic approach alone can not explain everything. We are the universe in a finite form.
No we aren’t
@swagsurfer03 Whether you "believe" or not, you're right. Our minds perceive reality the way we think it is. To know this, one must go beyond the mind to awareness.
The dr is a life saver and your interview style is refreshing as you make it about your guest not you and you don’t try to control the direction that way who no’s where it goes
You have some very good points about parents lacking coping skills, and forgiving them. Also, the science related to the body. Habit formation, Repetition, points out the self focused mindset, overcoming by serving others, having gratitude
Deep breathing and body scanning I have found are the best ways for me to activate my parasympathetic nervous system.
Yes. I was glad to discover somatic methods and find them really useful. You don't have to think about them, or "relax against your will" :-), you just do them.
I find that going to the beach and finding a very calm cove, then floating on my back for around 45 minutes, rests the nervous system, especially if the water is a bit cool.
I am moved by Dr. Doty’s dedication and compassion. Thank you!
Dude you did not have to hammer the guy with the alcohol question right off the bat. Should have built it up naturally with discussion around his childhood. Seems very inconsiderate.
I agree completely with you on that. This isn’t a therapy session..it’s an interview.
To throw such an intrusive question at the beginning was uncalled for.
@@helencavanagh8119 exactly!
Self Guru...it matters not ❤
AGREE, VERY OFF PUTTING RIGHT OFF THE BAT, THE HOST IS SUPPOSED TO BE KIND
The "guy" is a grown up man with what seems the required emotional balance and sharp intellect to express any inconvenience that would be presented to him... We appreciate your concerns but clearly here they are not relevant.
What a kind human being and great physician is Dr. Doty. He 's vibration is incredible high! On the contrary this RUclipsr better get a job ...
You sir are an excellent interviewer... First time listening... I'll def b back
What a great interview and exactly what I needed to hear today. Thank you!
Thank you both , I have been fascinated by interviews of Dr. Doty , and have ordered his books and reading them, while I 100% agree with you Dr. Doty, it just came to mind that the argument of "in order to manifest your intentions, it has to serve humanity for it to work ", how does one explains those who commit serial acts of evil , imagine the types of evils, though their intentions has nothing to do with humanity or service to it, why are many of such evil minded individuals are "successful" in manifesting their intentions? thanks for your response
Wow Dr Doty did not say one thing that my experience doesn’t tell mi is true. Thank you, Light Watkins for this guest and your style of interview.
Highly recomended listening. Very simple and mellow potent!
I don t think that multi generational communities were without problems, supporting with loving care. There was also a lot of suppression, what you were born in you stay in etc.
Excellent interview on both sides. Such a common issue hiding in plain sight.
What I would do differently: I would not assume that listeners have read the guest's book. This way, I would avoid creating a partial picture. The continuous reference to unknown facts created frustration for me, just like being presented with some pieces of a puzzle.
Quality interview skills!! Wisdom and humility of the speaker speak loudly Do pass this on. It is transformational AND without Any 'Woo'
The distrust that comes from being decieved or bullied online...is causing emotional distress especially in the young. Be sure to relate to others in real life - above screenlife...& minimise watching neg material online. We need to truly experience our 3D reality- & not get sucked into imagination.
Loved, “Into the Magic Shop.” I will be looking to buy your book. It is so good to hear compassion, understanding, practicality. And knowing if I don’t quite make the cut, it’s ok.
I will look for this book.. it would be great if written for children…Approx age 10-11+. Perhaps it is appropriate (?)♥️
So sorry I found the replies so much more interesting. So many enlighteneed people.
As a first time viewer, this is the most enjoyable first view of a show, ever. Thank you.🙏
How very grateful to hear this wonderful talk. Thanks yo both if you for this!
We are God, only God can create , we are creating our lives daily. We are God disguising ourselves as humans to show us all the path we need to follow to teach us all how to find bliss, we find bliss when we awaken. God is creating his own suffering to help all those parts of himself who are lost in their illusionary selves (being human) that it's time for us all we need to awaken! ( We = God) put ourselves to sleep to live within this human illusionary world = (the dream the suffering), to show everyone who they truly are and awakening is coming back to God to our true selves , ( suffer little children to come unto me ) We are God's little children ( his creation) it's all God creating everything including us! AMEN ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So very true.
Love James Doty and have watched many of his interviews. Great questions on this one that make it quite different from others, thank you.
AMAZING ! Thank you for this content !
Excellent interview! Very inspiring. Thank you.
Thank you for a very realistic refreshing interview. Especially for the Alphabet of the ♡ Blessed journey to all
Incredible and profound interview, especially enjoyed Dr dissecting 'common' spiritual and religious indoctrinations of our times. Great critical question to Dr @ 1:13:59, and his dispelling the false narratives of 'manifesting' many of us are likely tired of. And Dr's final words that he leaves us with, meant to guide us to our purpose on earth; to truly contribute ourselves to others during our time here.
Thank you!!
Exactly.
Thank you so much for the interview! I love The Magic Shop! So happy to find your channel!
Mr Watkins, you have been a perfect host, I have really enjoyed this podcast 😊
Great interview. Enjoyed it very much. A lot of Truths that can help many find ways to achieve their niche in life. Learnt a lot from your perspective. Thank you for a great show.
You have a beautiful heart Dr Doty 🙏🏽
Thank you kindly for this interview.
Great interview!!!
The last time I saw the Dalai Lama, he tried to tongue kiss a little child live on stage in front of the whole world. His team tried to explain it away. Dr JD, I hope you can find it in your heart to shed some tears for that little child and the many others…
What ??????
Can you elaborate on that !?!???
Enlighten Beings are living in "present moment, " which means there's no past or future, not unlike our first seven years of life. This is very liberating and playful. It's not an excuse, but an explanation.
Thank you. That was absolutely wonderful.....
Loved this, thank you ❤
Really interesting. Very much appreciated the humanity of this dr. Many thanks.
I heard this story before during a mindfulness audio book regarding the magician lady and, ironically, I just found that person who told the story. ❤❤
Beautiful person, wonderful interview, but the universe does care.
I have had a number of premonitory dreams that came true shortly afterwards that proved to me something is out there communicating with us. There was no way I could have known these events would happen and yet they did.
Hmmm, very good one. Really liked it. It connects many dots. Now its time to practice 😀
Thank you again Dr Doty. :)
Great interview 😊
This is the most important conversation of our time.
I enjoyed listening to you. Thanks
Loved this interview! Thank you!!!
Impresionante! Superb! Thank you. Best wishes.
just a bit of constructive criticism, the wobbly screen change is really annoying and distracting, it should be a cut we hardly notice. Good video though.
I dislike very much that wobbly screen as well...disturbing/annoying
@@eniddeleon8421 yes very annoying
Wow what a beautiful soul
Thanks for sharing
That was magnificent. I will listen again.
Must disagree with the esteemed and well respected Dr. Doty. The Universe does care and for some reason the Universe knew that he needed a Ruth in his life and that he would make the most of what she taught and so it was. I have experienced too many times that, it wasn't synchronicity, that the Universe has given just what I needed. Not what I most wanted, but always what I needed.
The laws of nature does Not care about the welfare of humans.
However, the designer, implementer, and sustainer of Life and the laws of nature...cares about the welfare of humans.
@MD-bu3xc
I agree with you.
Present science is too orthodox having its own superstitions what most of the scientists & doctors think .They are in matrix ,may divine is wise enough to give insight who is capable to understand wisdom (and is pure enough on many lifetimes kind ,compassionate acts purifying karmic layers)
Only those great scientists like Tesla , Oppenheimer have been able to go beyond and have become spiritual .So is the true with steve Jobs , mark zukerberg , richard alpert (Ram dass Harvard professor) have had glimpse of this.
Universe must be intelligent there is no way. Unfortunately present objective science due to its inherent limitations cannot grasp it so they deny it.
I haven't
God in the most simple of terms definitely seems to have care and mercy on us hence we are happily living and breathing practically unconsciously more then 50% of my time , I can't speak for everyone else but ysB glad to have this video as an outlet, thank you
What about wars where innocent people suffer so much?
Loved this talk
Great book!! I have it!!
Wonderful interview! Thank you. And thank you for letting your guest speak to without interruption. I learned a lot and felt a little hope. I didn't agree with everything this doctor shared but i think he had good intentions.
I agree mostly on what the doctor said. But the doctor is speaking from a very materialistic, left brained, Western worldview.
Poopooing the transcendent, leave his teaching/viewpoint incomplete. Yes, God of religion is childish, but God, as the Infinite Intelligence, more complete, in my opinion.
Abstain is best ….it was rude to ask , yes but it did worked…. Is because he is willing to share !
I wasted so many hours watching videos trying to bring my vibration up to higher level. Trying to make contact with my spirit guides or my guardian angels. I don’t see any light and I don’t feel any vibrations or energy. I feel like I’m not getting anywhere, but I try to be positive and it’s just getting me nowhere.
For me, it is safer to seek spiritual experience in an established religious tradition. For the rest, maybe give yourself a break and don't overthink all this. Some things take practice. I don't believe in a magical manifesting universe but I do think Dr Doty has some useful science to impart, eg on intention and attention. Obviously relaxation techniques, good food and exercise, gratitude and so on are good habits to form. None of this is easy in a negative striving culture so go easy on yourself. Best of luck
If I may.. and hope it doesnt undermine your efforts. But it appears you’re trying to get somewhere or achieve some thing. So there is want. And want is the problem. Its a state of being. So if when it feels like nothing. Accept that as all it is. If you can realise that you will get the peace. Its humbling, peaceful and safe to be a spec in time and trust the whole big flow. No prizes no sparkles just the undenying presence of creation doing its thing. Its not understanding. That comes clearly when we pass on. I think. Whilst here, we just work pn trusting things with less fear. I hope this helps.
Ooops. To clarify. Want is not the state of being! Meditation is. Dont want to get that bit wrong! And be patient. Its called spiritual practice. Works hust lime pushups. Eventually youre doing 30.
Wonderful hearing the interview with one of my favorite dear friends, the lovely Jams Doty. Thank you for sharing this wisdom, we are very appreciative of this teaching and we look forward to other inspirational projects!
Nomi 💖🙏
Very enjoyable
the manifesting thing for me anyway, seems to swing on the hinges, of what we think about we bring about…. the thoughts we have are energetic and since apparently this world exists as it does, because of energy waves and frequencies, it makes sense to this current understanding i have of it, then personal realities truly do depend on the frequencies our thoughts emit… coming to this point of self awareness is the tricky part; especially when our starts are skewed by trauma, abuse, neglect and our own personal makeup like being a Highly Sensitive and/or ADHD or autistic… that makes things extra exceptionally tricky… this is a great discussion …. the constant stress is definitely unnatural and certainly skews our natural abilities to express nurture, joy, connections and community…
I lived in former USSR under socialistic regime and I can assure people who have tendency not to like capitalism, capitalism 70% better. I came to America when I was 40 in 1992. I can tell that America was and still is for me the best thing that happen to me in my life. I am terrify that with the tendency to replace capitalistic system with socialism in a future I had to live under socialistic regime again.
Thank you
Thank you Very interesting
I have to disagree. I was raised in a multigenerational house. And it was awful. Then you have the two older generations abusing you. Because the trauma passes from one generation to the next. It makes it way worse.
And the universe does care. The universe sent me horses. My family never did that. They only abused me.
The human mechanics
of living in fear is part of the Spirit having a human experience. a natural
process. on Earth.
Success is within 🗝

Thank youu
Perfect.
I find it difficult that the good doctor doesn't subscribe to a higher power. His explanation of god in tribal sense is a bit shallow in my view. God, in the religious sense, is also very childish. But god, as the transcendent, is experiential. God/nature/Emptiness exists in my experience
Very good interview. .
many religions doesn't mean no one is right, many can be right at once
Very interesting!
Curious if the Dr avoids news media of all the suffering in the world..
Way off on the roots of spirituality since he seems to conflate religion to power and hierarchy. Better to think of the four functions of myth by Joseph Campbell to see why myths/religions are endemic in humans. It’s fashionable to dismiss religion, and it has many faults, but there are beautiful concepts that don’t need to be tossed out so glibly. Spirituality is in religions. Trading religious practices for non hierarchical one doesn’t mean the older traditions are useless. I too am spiritual and have multiple practices and a traditional association, and do t find them in opposition. His thoughts on traditional religion are way too general. Otherwise, a decent conversation.
Agree. I've just replied to someone saying they are trying to connect to spirit guides. I don't think some of these gurus should be advising this to their audiences, they don't know what they're suggesting, maybe to vulnerable people, and I really worry that this practice can cause real harm.
Thank you for this information was very helpful. Although, his statement that “the universe doesn’t care about you” and his reference to higher powers, although may have some truth to them, the attitude that he is promoting and the way he states his views as fact is really just the same coping mechanism that religion uses to express the unknown.
I would really like to inspire Dr. Doty to express a more honest view that is that we don’t really know either way…
I mean, from my perspective, just the fact that we care is evidence enough that the universe cares because we are part of that same life force.
Thank you for this program and I thank Dr. Doty for his insights..
What he means is that the universe doesn't care how you live your life, if you're happy or not, "successful" or not "a good person" or not, ect... Does things are meaningless when it comes to the grandious of the universe. We spend so much energy thinking about those things when in reality those things are trivial.
Dogmatiism isn't just the domain of religion, unfortunately. 😢
@@kalprao I understand, from what I know life itself has no inherent meaning and we are the ones that give meaning to life. Yet, because we give meaning to life and our ancestors have built on that meaning is still proof enough that there are forces at play that do care for our wellbeing. so I still don't think his statement is in full truth. Thank you so much for your viewpoint. Be well.
I want to ask Dr. Doty if he has been in touch with woman who helped him when he was twelve.
That was the Divine Grace of The Universe (which he doesn't believe in)working through that lady to "foward assist " him.
I know a sure fire way to manifest: be lucky enough to have been born with the genetics which give you the aptitude and ability to achieve what you desire. Works unfailingly every time.
Choose your parents wisely :-)
This is a really awesome stuff. But has anyone seen the movie up? ❤️❤️
I really don’t like the concept of manifestation. We are constantly manifesting, as the doctor says, but it’s not something we do consciously, and most of what we manifest are not things/situations we realize we need. We might manifest something that seems, on the surface, to be absolutely terrible, but it’s something we need for reasons we may not currently understand and may never be able to understand. I do know that the more we try to control, i.e., “manifest” in the context the host is using, the worse off we are. The more we want something, the less likely we are to get it. And certainly, when we are focused on “manifesting” the things our patriarchal, capitalist society tells us will make us happy, we cannot possibly become content and fulfilled. Humans need very little in the way of material things. We need food, water and, in some cases, shelter. More than any of those things though, we need connection. And the more stuff we have, the more elusive connection becomes. So while you’re spending your energy trying to “manifest” a nice car, a big house, and lots of money, you’re actually pushing away that which you need even more than air, water and food.
Thank you both. My experience: Feeling is healing ~ Connecting with 'The Creator ( an entity which I can't see feel , or touch ), and the belief - One for all, and all for one.
Estimated global population:

2024 CE : 8,019,876,189
25% don't have anyone to talk to about suffering?
What about Love?
Dr. Doty lack of a spiritual connection and experiences, does not disavow other humans personal relationship with God.
However, Doty does have some great insights into the human condition.
Thank you! ❤🤟🇪🇨

That's what this world does to me. Pass and dump all of the blame down upon me. They're totally innocent
Even the alcoholics and druggies deserve some kind of elation that our bodies and minds need. The right now time and space moment. Yeah man, some love and authenticity be cool too 😎.

I doubt the approach described would have made the guy find happiness. I would say that’s a false claim.
Most people who live in fear states. - did not experience a loving parental figure. So trying to access that experience as described will not work.
I very much agree with the victim-shaming though, that’s rampant and probably the main business model used by life coaches and manifestation gurus.,.
This whole ‘be of service’ thing however is just a big trap and it’s the same BS all religions use.
It’s always someone driving a porche telling others they need to be of service… I’m so sick of that phrase!!
A great guest would be Dr. Bernardo Kastrup
The interviewer's gut punch re alcohol was unusually insensitive. That's a serious topic, and the Dr. grew up a trauma victim. RESPECT. Whether you agree with his perspective or not, at least --the very LEAST-- give respect.
The very first question is so offputting. It was rude.
I have been operated for meningioma since 1year my right hand is not working please suggest me some tips
I'm so sorry to hear that- are you right handed? If so, perhaps it might help to begin practicing to use your left hand more. I once broke 2 fingers on my right hand and had to use my left hand more - it was hard but you can learn.
It's not that the universe doesn’t care; the universe is malevolent.
Earth was created by God as our Eden. Our chance to grow spiritually and translocate to a better place.
Some people choose compassion, kindness and prayer, some people choose the opposite.
It's the choices you make; the universe doesn’t care: God does.
