One of the most powerful songs I have ever heard in my life - first heard it being played some 20 years ago, and it still has an influence on my life.......wise, wise, wise words......
This was really ahead of its Time. :) Some of this teaching is found in yoga but I never hear the teachers promote Reason as a tool for Love in this way. If yoga is about activating the Lightbody, then the teaching of Reason is unique to an individual (just as is the teaching of using the Andromeda Galaxy core to momentarily escape from the illusions of this reality).
One of the most powerful pieces of theatre I have ever seen. Beautifully written and performed. I will never forget it. Please I wish this production could be performed again so this generation can appreciate it.
Ditto. I shared this in three groups I run on Facebook. I have stopped counting how frequently I watch this - What a lovely lesson how we should conduct our life! I watch this constantly as a reminder!!!!!
The first time i heard it was in the 90s on the radio station played in South Africa,it touched my Heart and Soul. I played it for my students before there passing out parade. It will stuck with me till eternity!!!!!!!!!!!...........
O, These words touch my heart-soul-spirit in such a profound way. These words have always been part of my framework in my Lord, my God, my Beloved Most Holy Trinity.
This is from the stage musical, Time, which I went to see many times at the Dominion Theatre in London back in the 80s. It gave me goosebumps then and it still does today; a powerful message we should all listen to. So glad a random memory made me look this up. I used to have the vinyl soundtrack album from the show, but my mother forgot it was mine and threw it away one day! Would love to find it again...
I was 19 years old. Looking ahead with my toolbox of truths and myths. I was gifted a recording, on vinyl, of this monologue. Lorna February, thank you! It was this, this truth, which directed my trajectory... it was the thrust which gave direction to my little bark out on the open sea of life. My words were not always chosen with care, but awareness of these words tempered the crude utterances. Lorna, thank you.
What a life lesson - Just listened to this again today. Would it not be a perfect world if we could all adhere to this beautiful lesson. Talk about addiction of the "better kind" - That's me!
I loved that musical, Time: The Musical. I attended many performances, especially when David Cassidy and Stephanie Lawrence starred in it! I loved this speech by Sir Laurence Olivier. The songs delighted and moved me, too. The theme and concepts were deeply meaningful to me, matching my religious and philosophical beliefs. R.I.P. to those three talented artists. I wish someone would do an updated revival with new technologies on stage! The message is needed more than ever now in 2024!
Heard it for the first time - actually recorded it of the radio, like we used to do those days. This song/poem and Desiderata are equally beautiful and inspiring - a Great motto to live by.
This is sooo beautiful, and the most powerful song ever - This song was the start of the transformation in my life - thank you for this powerful song with such deep meaning.
I absolutely looove this powerful and beautiful songs and have done so ever since I first heard it when it was played at the end of Vision Quest trainings I had completed and also facilitated in 1995/96.. Thank you! "Stand before me on the sign of infinity, all you of the earth. With the granting of the law of provination comes the application of change. I will give you the key.

It's very simple. Throughout the universe there is order. In the movement of the planets, in nature and in the functioning of the human mind.

Realize that the one thing you have absolute control over is your attitude.

At its essence its not dissimilar to what Eckart Tolle says ie. Get in front of your thoughts (so you can block negative ones), suppress ego and promote ("so thoughts can flow directly from the heart).
I first heard this of all places at a Country & Western festival several years back, and i'ts had quite an effect, music fabulous, narration superb, thanks Dave

I might steal this and with a few alterations to some of the words, it would make such a lovely commitment speech to make at a wedding after they have said their vows and before I let them kiss. It is such a beautiful piece of work and although written in the early 80s, still very fresh and true to this day and in another 20 plus years or more will remain as clear a message as it did then.
According to David Soames, who co-wrote the show: The "law of provination" should be the "law of probenation". "The law of probenation is a play on the word "probation" which is handed out to a criminal by the British courts, it means that they are on probation to behave themselves otherwise the court will call them back and impose a custodial sentence on said criminal for whatever crime they may have commited!"

I had a brieve moment with his grand daughter once, I have to say she does him proud! When I say him, I mean the writer of the play, not sir Olivier....she was as remarcable as her grandfather.....
Ciao there I saw this what 6- 8 times at the theatre at Tottenham court rd in 85- 86 must be then Dave Clark wrote it back then it was great and how they done it the good old day's I'm 52 in a few months time so can remember it all brings back memories good and bad ones anyway I used to have the tapes and that of it be good if was on DVD or tape wouldn't it
RECEBAM,ACEITEM,NO VOSSO CORAÇAO E DEIXEM-SE SEGUIR POR ESTAS PALAVRAS, POR ESTA PAZ, POR ESTE AMOR.MUDEM A VOSSA MENTE, HÁ PAZ, HARMONIA, HÁ ESTABILIDADE E AO AMOR AO PROXIMO.

Thanks for sharing this - however; the speed / pitch is ever so slightly wrong. I would suggest others listen to other recordings just to get the authentic Laurence Olivier voice...Trust me on this.
Total bollox from the worst musical I ever paid good money to watch. Not a note of music worth humming could I remember as I left the theatre. But I did steal the Akash 3D head idea for use in business theatre programmes I was producing at the time, even managing to perfect the faults in the 'Time' production. Sir Laurance clearly failed to keep his head still enough and the whole 'head' had to be moved around by servo motors to keep the Olivier film in place.
I have spent over a decade looking for this after i lost the only recording I had of it. Thank you youtube and you who have shared it.
I still have the soundtrack on vinyl.
@@hannesbronkhorst3667
Me too
This is absolutely the best words of wisdom I have ever heard
There was a musical stage production with the English band
The Dave Clarke Five back in the early 60’s
If you can get your hands on a recording it is fabulous
Goes for nearly 2 hours & involves many different singers from around the World
The story line is about we are all being brought to justice for our ways ‘good & bad’ & how badly we have treated our planet earth & each other & should we pay a penalty
All done by famous singers using popular songs to explain the different ways & how to fix our indiscretions
Should be played everyday to everybody & maybe we could save our precious World if not too late
Words straight from Heaven......with Love.....
One of the most powerful songs I have ever heard in my life - first heard it being played some 20 years ago, and it still has an influence on my life.......wise, wise, wise words......

I saw it at the Dominion Theatre in Tottenham Court RD back in the 80s was a fantastic show. Its a shame they didn't do a video of it .
I go to this piece everytime I need a wake-up call.
It brings me to what is real without ego
One of the most powerful pieces of theatre I have ever seen. Beautifully written and performed. I will never forget it. Please I wish this production could be performed again so this generation can appreciate it.
I cannot tell you how many times I played this over and over - thank you
Ditto.

I have stopped counting how frequently I watch this - What a lovely lesson how we should conduct our life! I watch this constantly as a reminder!!!!!
Double Ditto an all time favourite ... love Olivier

Same
The first time i heard it was in the 90s on the radio station played in South Africa,it touched my Heart and Soul. I played it for my students before there passing out parade. It will stuck with me till eternity!!!!!!!!!!!...........

thank you for the teacher who played it to me in 1987 since then. I do not stop listening to it. Fochville
Bravo bravo bravo...What more needs to be said...Sir Laurence Olivier said it all peace love and happiness to all
The best video ever narrated, if people really got what he's saying they would not suffer, I love this
Heard it for the first time - actually recorded it of the radio, like we used to do those days.
This song/poem and Desiderata are equally beautiful and inspiring - a Great motto to live by.
Father God makes this possible, though He not always get the Glory.....
Forever grateful this is wonderful ... love the wisdom and the MAN

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL...TYVM !
I played Akash when we did this as our 3rd production at school in 1986. I still have great memories of it.
This is amazing. Heard this 20 years ago. Bought it on tape. so thought provoking and soul filling words.
Perhaps one of the most profound elements of responsible leadership!
Yes, this is very moving and POWERFUL!
Powerful and inspiring .Thank you for sending it to me.
And today, 6 years later - it still has an influence on my life!!!
This is one of the most incredibly inspiring philosophies.........

I listened to this for the first time at the tender age of 11 and it continues to impress upon me till this day and beyond 🌈💝😘👑❤️
This is an eye opener
So beautiful thankyou Voip101
Good to hear these thoughts repeatedly. Dankie Johann du Plessis
This is magnificent! I find it mysterious how difficult it is to find soundtrack or video/film of "Time: the Musical".
true, so true..the trick is in the implementation
Just found this and I love it.
Yeah the time's yeah time I saw this at the theater up in London in the 86
1st & last time I heard this on Sydney Radio back in the early 1980s. Wondered about it, piece-meal, ever since...
🤔
still brill Sir Laurence
Try and say it the way he does .... very difficult!
this is such an amazing lesson for all

Thank you so much for this definition ;-) That fits and resonates more for all who are wondering the same question ;-) Thank you! ;-)
@batgirl007 extremely well put,

would have been infinitely better without the "muzak"
Total bollox from the worst musical I ever paid good money to watch. Not a note of music worth humming could I remember as I left the theatre. But I did steal the Akash 3D head idea for use in business theatre programmes I was producing at the time, even managing to perfect the faults in the 'Time' production. Sir Laurance clearly failed to keep his head still enough and the whole 'head' had to be moved around by servo motors to keep the Olivier film in place.
Christo Wellington gotta agree to disagree. I can still remember the songs to this very day.
