00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:00.880
What is up everyone?
00:00:00.959 --> 00:00:02.240
Welcome back to BBTV.
00:00:02.319 --> 00:00:03.439
Thank you very much for joining me today.
00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:07.839
I'm going to be talking about a couple things that I believe are connected.
00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:17.039
And as I kind of bounce in between these couple of different ideas, I'm going to touch on topics of psychology, linguistics, maybe a little bit of philosophy.
00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:43.280
And these things that I'm going to be jumping around between are mainly going to be the Himba people, the Himba people of northern Nimimbea, Namibia, and Gugu Yimither that live in another group of people that live in Northern Australia, specifically their languages and their difference in languages between the way that they speak and the way that most of the rest of the world speaks.
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:49.520
They have some very interesting differences that lead to some very interesting ways that they perceive and interact with the world.
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:53.600
Also, in this, I want to talk about Jim Carrey's graduation speech.
00:00:53.679 --> 00:01:01.280
So he gave a speech at the university or at Maharishi University of Management.
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:09.920
So he gave this speech, uh, and then, you know, I highly recommend also listening to this speech because everyone glazes how it basically can change your life and all this stuff.
00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:11.760
It is a fantastic speech.
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:27.519
And then I also want to talk about the movie Arrival, which is the movie that stars the guy who plays Hawkeye, Jeremy Renner, and the woman who plays Lois Lane in the Henry Cavill Superman series, Amy Adams.
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:30.239
So if you don't know who those two people are, it doesn't really matter.
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.599
It's not relevant to this very much at all, to be honest.
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:38.560
But I do want to start with Jim Carrey's graduation speech because I love a good graduation speech.
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:44.560
And I think that his graduation speech, as well as the famous one that Steve Jobs gave at Stanford, are probably my two favorite.
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:49.120
I think they're the most uh that you can take away the most from them immediately as you listen to them.
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:55.040
But I do think that Jim Carrey's is probably my favorite for one because he's a much more entertaining speaker than Steve Jobs is.
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:55.920
Like he's just funnier.
00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:02.239
And then also the stuff that he brings in is a little more woo-woo, you could say, which excites me.
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:11.439
It excites me when people go up and they're in positions where they've seen a lot of success in the world, and it seems like they've unlocked some sort of secret key that people don't know about.
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:15.360
And that is kind of what Jim Carrey does here, whether it's legitimate or not.
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:16.159
So he tells the story.
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:17.680
I'm basically just going to briefly synopsize it.
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:20.560
I'm not going to focus on the details because it's more the overarching message that matters.
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:30.479
But basically, he was he was a young kid, he had a teacher, and the teacher basically said that whenever she wants something, she asks for it, and then she says that she'll give something up in exchange.
00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:36.560
Usually it's like, you know, like, oh, like I'll do the prayer, I'll read the book of whatever it is, book of James, and then I want this thing.
00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:41.039
And then whenever she does that, whenever she does that exchange, she always gets what she wants.
00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:46.800
And so this story, this method of getting things that you want stuck with Jim Carrey.
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:55.520
And so what he did is he basically said that he wanted he wanted a bike because his family was poor and his family could not afford a bike.
00:02:55.599 --> 00:03:08.000
And so he did this prayer, and he said that he will read the rosary every every night, the rosary part of the Bible, I believe, and then he said that you read it every night if he gets, you know, and then in return he wants this bike.
00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:15.919
And it, you know, he talks about how it's like this fancy bike with like these nice chopper handle bars and like a banana seed, all this fancy stuff that he knows his family can't afford.
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:20.080
So anyway, he does this and he doesn't actually even end up reading the rosary every night.
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:25.919
He ends up falling short on the uh his delivery of his end of the bargain.
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:28.800
But then a couple weeks later, he comes back, and what's this?
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:37.039
It's like the exact bike that he envisioned with the nice handlebars, with the banana seat, and it's just sitting on his front porch, and he's like, What is this?
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:38.639
How does this how did this get here?
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:58.879
And so then upon you know, sleuthing around and finding out what went down, it turns out that his buddy had put him into a raffle, a raffle, and he had won this bike without him ever even having to have done anything for it, and without him ever even having known about the raffle that resulted in him winning it.
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:04.400
So, talk about a miracle, that is like literally how that is as miraculous as it gets.
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:08.159
I mean, if I experienced that when I was younger, that would probably re completely reframe the way that I looked at the world.
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:23.680
So, anyway, but he basically explains that then from that point forward, his entire career basically just unfolded in this way, where he would just do this like kind of like law of exchange is something that people say a lot in like the comment sections of my videos and stuff.
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:28.480
Um, but basically it's like, you know, I'll give this up and I want this in return, and then is in and then you know, you get it.
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:33.360
Even sometimes when you don't um, you know, necessarily hold up your end of the bargain.
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:36.879
And so part of the idea here is you know, that kind of manifestation thing.
00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:43.120
Part of the idea, um, yeah, I mean it's basically it's basically this is as raw like manifestation as you can possibly get.
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:52.079
And then again, Jim Carrey, the interesting part is that he says that this is that is the that has been the undertone, the underlying mechanism behind all of his success for the rest of his life.
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:53.360
So very crazy.
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:55.439
I just okay, so I want to throw that one out there.
00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:06.800
Um, because it's very important because I think that genuinely, I believe that he might have actually been tapping into something that is like legit in the universe.
00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:08.319
I'm going into more speculation here, right?
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:09.600
So what I'm saying right now isn't science.
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:15.600
I'm gonna go into more science stuff that backs this up later, but I'm just gonna kind of preface the thesis of everything that I'm gonna say in this podcast.
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:36.800
So I think that there is more to this idea of manifestation, to like releasing energy or putting something out there and then having what comes back, like that relationship between what you put out and what you comes back, I think is more like tangible and real than people admit or than people accept to be the case in their lives.
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:45.360
Like, I mean, it even is in science, and I feel like there are some laws like Newton's laws of physics, where it's you know, like every force has an equal and opposite reaction.
00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:50.959
I don't know why that law would apply purely to physical material objects.
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:59.920
I feel like it might make sense for that law to like permeate out even into like the whatever emotions are, whatever ideas are, whatever, you know, psychic waves there might be in the air.
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:08.160
Again, I don't want to get too hokey with it, but the fact that that's a law of physics, and presumably the laws of physics carry over, I don't know, into like maybe other dimensions and stuff like that.
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:10.240
You know, they're under the underlying mathematics.
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:15.759
Like Newton's stuff was founded in mathematics, and I feel like mathematics is like a guiding principle of pretty much everything that happens in the world.
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:21.839
So I feel like there's something with that equal opposite, equal exchange that kind of Jim Carrey is talking about here.
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:25.120
I don't really know exactly what it is, but that's that's what I think.
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:37.360
So let me get into some other examples, and specifically, I want these examples to expand your idea of how exactly this came to be for Jim Carrey specifically, and how for a lot of people this doesn't come to be.
00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:42.639
You know, a lot of people ask for a lot of things in the universe day to day and they don't get them.
00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:44.160
So why is this?
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:47.199
And again, I'm gonna preface it with my thesis here.
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:57.120
I think that it's because people like sub either subconsciously or consciously, probably mostly subconsciously, they close themselves off from the idea that when they ask something, they will actually get it.
00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:03.759
And you know, that they'll talk about this like in church, for instance, that you know, you'll you'll you'll you'll do a prayer, but then you'll caveat it.
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:10.160
So you'll be like, oh, like, you know, like I really would like this, but you know, if I don't get it, I understand it's you know, not maybe it's not like the time for that and all that.
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:26.319
Um so I don't know if that if that if that strikes a chord with anyone, but I do think that there is, it speaks to this element of when people want something and when they ask God or the universe or their own God, whatever, whatever it might be, there is kind of like that back in the back of their mind, they're like, oh, like this probably won't work.
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.399
I'm probably not actually speaking to anything here, maybe this isn't blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:42.720
And I think that that, that maybe that um, like that chink in your armor, that chink in your manifestation armor, you might say, could be the weakness that actually disables you from being able to get it.
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.160
Because I think like with Jim Carrey's story, this happened to him at such an early age.
00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:54.079
Like, I mean, if this happens when you're in second grade, you know, you're like, you're like eight, nine years old, if this happened to me, I would be like, oh, this is just the way the world works.
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:54.800
You know what I mean?
00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:57.519
Like if I do something, I get something back, which makes total sense.
00:07:57.600 --> 00:07:58.959
I mean, as an adult, you think that too, right?
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:03.839
You know, you go to work and you get a paycheck back, you go to the gym, you get muscles back, you go to, you know, whatever.
00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:06.800
It's it's this exchange that happens like all throughout the world.
00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:16.079
But I think that maybe he tapped into like this little bit of a deeper level of it, where he was like, oh, like this exchange is literally like just like one for one.
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.000
Like all I have to do is ask for something specific.
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:22.000
And then he had the expectation that it was going to happen, and so therefore it happened.
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:24.639
And then there's a lot of, you know, kind of layers that you can go into this.
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:31.360
A lot of people, when they're talking about manifestation, they talk about how you need to manifest from a place of abundance, like a place where you already have it.
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:42.240
You can't manifest from a place of like lacking, because if you're lacking and then you're always trying to chase these ideas, then you won't get them because you need to like embody what it's like to be the person who already has them.
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:51.679
And so similarly, like that aligns with this because in Jim Carrey's thing, he's like, you know, he it at no point in the speech was he like, oh, I doubted that I would, you know, I didn't think that this was gonna work, the bicycle thing.
00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:55.759
It was like, oh, like this teacher taught me this thing about how the world works, I'm gonna go do it, and then it worked.
00:08:55.840 --> 00:09:06.799
And so then he's like, okay, I'm just gonna keep doing this, and it kept working for him because again, his his brain never shut the door that enabled those sorts of things to happen for him, right?
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:10.799
The brain, the brain never shut the door that enabled for those things to happen to them.
00:09:10.879 --> 00:09:15.919
And that kind of goes into a little bit, if I want to talk on some neuroscience here, the idea of pruning.
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:23.759
So when you're when you're a baby and you're born, you actually have about twice as much synaptic activity in your brain as a full-grown adult.
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:28.559
So your brain is actually way more active, it's firing a lot more when you're a child.
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:42.879
And and this is part of the reason why, like, you know, you'll see child and children and they're pointing, like when they're really young, you know, they'll they'll be laying on the bed and they'll just be pointing up at the ceiling, and people are always like, oh, like, you know, they're seeing ghosts, they're seeing the souls, they're seeing, you know, like their their elders or their ancestors or whatever.
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:53.840
But actually, a lot of this is because they are literally seeing um just a lot more, they're they're taking in way more data, data that your adult brain has learned to filter out over time.
00:09:54.000 --> 00:10:05.440
And so one example that I think is very interesting for this is like babies can recognize the differences in faces between animals just as well as they can between human beings.
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:10.320
So if you were to show a baby two lemurs, like think like lemurs like the ones from Madagascar.
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.120
Obviously, the ones in the movie Madagascar have very distinct features.
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:19.120
But if you look at two, if at least if I look at a picture of two lemurs in real life, I can't distinguish between two lemurs.
00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:23.279
I don't even think I could distinguish really between like a male and a female, much less two males or two females.
00:10:23.440 --> 00:10:27.519
But babies can distinguish it as well as they're able to distinguish human faces.
00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:28.639
Same with monkeys and all this stuff.
00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:45.919
And there's countless examples of things that babies can discern extremely well, that as you're an adult and as you grow older, and as this process of pruning, right, pruning basically means like if you have a branch and you start cutting off, you know, the smaller branches that are on the side to make it smooth, that is what's happening to their brain.
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:53.919
And so at some point in their adult life, as they're growing up, they're like, okay, like being able to distinguish two lemurs is taking up, you know, that's not necessary brain activity for my survival.
00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:56.240
So it cuts it out, and then you literally lose that ability.
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:01.279
You literally lose the ability to see the difference between two lemurs' faces.
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:04.159
And maybe if you exercise it a ton day after day, you know, you can get better.
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:10.240
But it's the same thing as like, you know, why it's easier for children to learn languages is because their brains are a lot more, they're like sponges.
00:11:10.320 --> 00:11:15.519
Like they're a lot more open and able to absorb knowledge and different perspectives.
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:42.240
And I would even say if you look at like brain scans of people that are on psychedelic psychoactive drugs like psilocybin or LSD or MDMA, all of these things, that brain activity, I know that they did a study, I believe it was at Yale, or this was sort, um, I think it was the the sources from Yale, but it was saying that when you're on in these clinical studies that they've done with psilocybin, your your brain activity increases by around 10%, uh, your synaptic activity.
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:49.840
And so when you're a baby, your your your brain activity is increased by like 100% because it's like roughly double the amount of synaptic activity as when you're an adult.
00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:55.200
So if you think about it, babies could be like the visual stuff that they're taking in could be insane.
00:11:55.279 --> 00:12:01.360
Like they could be seeing the world as like swirls, like it's like a Van Gogh painting, like all of these things moving in and out of each other.
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:17.759
And then all of a sudden, you know, as they grow older and they, you know, accidentally run into a wall, whatever swirls and stuff that are associated or uh represent that wall suddenly become more and more embedded in their brain because their brain starts to cut out all of the stuff that might distract them from that important piece of information, you know, knowing that a wall is right in front of you.
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:23.279
So I think it's possible that babies have like just a ridiculously open mind to the way the world works.
00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:26.799
And again, it it gets cut down, which is scientifically that is facts.
00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:46.879
I I'm I'm I'm stretching a little bit when I say, you know, that maybe they're like tripping, or maybe they're having like trip-like visuals, because first of all, I don't know like what those are firsthand, but also um, I'm just saying, you know, in terms of brain activity, those two things are somewhat like they're uh not related, but you know, they're they're they're they can be they can be looked at and similar in some ways.
00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:49.919
So again, take that with a grain of salt, but do know that pruning is a real thing.
00:12:50.080 --> 00:13:00.399
Babies have um about twice as much synaptic activity when they're when they're younger, and that they're able to have these distinctions and look at the world in different ways that adult minds simply are not capable of.
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:04.320
You can't teach an old dog new tricks, as they say.
00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:20.559
So, anyway, so my thing is that basically, what if Jim Carrey's brain was at this point in his life where he hadn't yet been pruned as to the way that you can reap rewards or manifest things in the real world, all right?
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:32.639
And so, like maybe you have like another kid who just, you know, he's eight, so so imagine like Jim Carrey, eight years old, learns that if he if he asks for something and then gives a little something up, that he gets it immediately.
00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:38.000
Versus say, like, you know, there's another kid who never gets this this green this this bike.
00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:44.480
Say he, you know, he learns that Santa isn't real and that he's not gonna get a gift because you know his parents can't afford it and stuff.
00:13:44.559 --> 00:13:46.000
And so that's the lesson that that kid learned.
00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:57.279
So that kid learns a lesson of limiting of resource scarcity versus Jim Carrey learns this thing of like, oh, abundance, possibility, unlimited, whatever.
00:13:58.159 --> 00:13:59.120
Is it possible?
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:01.120
And again, I don't I don't know if this is true.
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:14.720
I'm getting a little woo-woo here, I'm not gonna lie, but like, is it possible that because of the nature of Jim Carrey's takeaway from that experience, his ability to reap the rewards from that method were then opened up?
00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:26.240
So, like that other kid, you know, if in the future he's like the other, say the other kid who learns about scarcity, learns that Santa isn't real, whatever, it's not gonna work out for him, or you know, that he can't just ask for something and then it comes miraculously.
00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:39.360
Is that kid like in the future, if if he, you know, when he's like when he's like 25 and he's like, okay, like I want this, I imagine that that kid's brain is probably gonna go to like, oh, well, I can't have it because, you know, I don't have the money for it.
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:49.039
I can't have it because, you know, of X, Y, Z, all of these reasons, these, you know, sensible reasons as to why, you know, something isn't just gonna fall out of thin air for him.
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:53.120
Versus Jim Carrey, his foundational experiences, you know, that can happen.
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:54.240
It's possible.
00:14:54.480 --> 00:15:09.679
And maybe like that distinction between the way their their consciousnesses are interpreting that, maybe that like the waves of like they're literally like their brain waves or something, like move out, and then what comes back relates to what their current experience is.
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:15.840
And I think that's kind of like the idea of what manifestation is, or not their current experience, but what their their outlook is on life.
00:15:15.919 --> 00:15:25.120
So because Jim Carrey is open to the possibility of the world working that way, it does in fact have the option and oftentimes does work in that way for him.
00:15:25.200 --> 00:15:27.519
Versus the other guy, that option is completely closed off.
00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:30.879
And so he doesn't, you know, it's not even it's not even available to him.
00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:40.000
And I think that there even even if you don't believe in like the woo-woo like crazy stuff, there is, there is like the same with like the the kid, like the the children's synaptic activity brain.
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:44.720
Like there is a kind of extreme spiritual direction you can you can look at this and speculate on.
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:49.759
But then there is like a like a like a like a legit scientific factual basis for each of these.
00:15:49.840 --> 00:16:01.200
Because with this one, it's like, I mean, people always talk about like the importance of self-belief is like everything, because if you don't believe that you can achieve something, you're not gonna put in the the work to achieve it, and so you're never gonna achieve it, right?
00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:06.879
Like, say you want to, you know, you want to start a podcast that's gonna be, you know, the the biggest podcast in the world, right?
00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:15.600
Well, if you don't believe that you can do that, you're never gonna make an episode, you're never gonna stick with it, you're never gonna put like you're never gonna do all the things it would take to get there, and so you'll never have it.
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:21.039
And so, like that is a factual, like that is like that is a correlated thing.
00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:24.879
If you don't believe you're you can do something, it's not, it's probably not gonna happen.
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:42.799
So maybe you know, you take that one step further, and it's you know, there's something in the universe, there's some some like energy, some manifestation, something that like that that dynamic, that idea of believing in yourself and it can happen, is a microcosm for the way that things like really work.
00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:45.840
And you can you could go into like you know, oh, it's like dimensions and like all this stuff.
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:46.720
I I I don't really know.
00:16:46.799 --> 00:16:47.600
I'm not gonna go into it.
00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:54.399
I'm not like I'm not articulate enough to be able to say that stuff in a way that'll make sense, but I feel like if you're on the same wavelength, you get what I mean.
00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:58.639
But I'm going to continue building on this idea with a couple more examples here.
00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:00.399
All right, so Goo Yimither.
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:17.519
Goo goo yimither is a tribe in Northern Australia, all right, and their language is completely different, completely different than English, completely different than pretty much any other language in the world, in that it's not really egocentric, it's directionally based, okay?
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:21.680
And this is I'm gonna I'm gonna have to explain this a decent bit because it's it's a little bit it's a little bit hard to grasp.
00:17:21.839 --> 00:17:28.000
But so if I say, you know, um, like, can you put your water bottle down to the right of you?
00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:30.559
All right, you'll you know, you'll set it down by your right leg.
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:35.119
If if I say, can you put your bottle down to the left of you, you know, you put it down by your left leg, you get it.
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:40.960
Goo Yemether, they don't have words like that because nothing relates to where they are in space.
00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:54.720
So if I was like, can you put your if I said, can you put your water bottle down to your um to your right in Goo Yemether, if I was speaking Goo Yemether and I said that, I would say basically, can you put your water bottle down to the south of you?
00:17:54.880 --> 00:17:58.400
If you were standing so that your right side is to the south of you.
00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:04.319
But then you know, if you flipped around 90 degrees, I would say, can you put the water bottle down to the north of you?
00:18:04.640 --> 00:18:13.200
So the idea is that you're instructing or your the way that you talk spatially is purely directional.
00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:14.960
It's not based like on a person.
00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:19.599
Like you don't put something in front of you, you put something to the north of you if you're oriented towards north.
00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:22.559
Or if I'm oriented towards west and I'm like, all right, I'm gonna put this in front of me.
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:25.359
I'm saying I'm gonna put this to the west of me.
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:36.559
Same like, you know, if you move something to the corner of the table, I don't say move it to the corner of the table, I say move it to like, you know, whatever, the southeast or wherever the cornal, the wherever the corner of the table is relative to space.
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:41.759
All right, so I'm hoping this makes sense because it's gonna be insane if you understand that part.
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:42.240
All right.
00:18:42.319 --> 00:18:46.000
So they've done insane experiments on these people, all right?
00:18:46.160 --> 00:18:50.160
I mean, they have like literally blindfolded them, spun them around until they're dizzy.
00:18:50.240 --> 00:19:03.200
They've driven them out into like deserts, completely desolate areas, into rooms with no windows or anything like that, and spin them around again to like they've done all like that this group of people is extensively, extensively studied.
00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:05.599
And you cannot disorient these people, okay?
00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:17.759
Like you can put them in a room completely black, spin them around until they're dizzy, and then open their eyes, and then they will have the ability to tell north, east, south, and west almost as accurately as a compass.
00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:21.759
Like if you were to have a magnet, a magnetic compass like pointing towards true north.
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:27.440
Like their accuracy is unreal and it's unbreakable because it's critical for how they communicate.
00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:37.440
Because every time they, you know, say anything with direction, it's always based in um, it's always you know like direction is key to the way that they communicate, it's essential for them.
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:46.079
So another example, they took two people, they took like an English speaker and they took a Goo-Guy Yimither speaker and they put them in front of a table.
00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:46.559
All right.
00:19:46.720 --> 00:19:52.240
And then I'm gonna simplify this experiment a little bit, um, but I it's the it this is the experiment that happened.
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:57.519
But so basically, imagine you're sitting at a table and someone drops three sticks in front of you, all right.
00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:04.960
Say they drop three sticks on the table in front of you, and one of them lands, you know, straight up and down, one of them kind of lands diagonal to the right, and then one of them lands like perfectly horizontal.
00:20:05.039 --> 00:20:07.440
All right, so there's a vertical one, a horizontal one, diagonal one.
00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:15.039
All right, and then say, you know, they take me into a different room, bring me somewhere else, and then they say, all right, recreate the shape of what happened.
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:19.359
Well, obviously, I'm gonna put one stick vertical, I'm gonna put one stick horizontal and one stick diagonal.
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:31.279
They're they're literally just like recreate the shape of what of what happened, like recreate the the stick orientation or recreate, you know, the the pattern of the sticks that you saw in the previous room.
00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:34.640
Okay, so that's what I would do, you know, I'd pull in vertical, pull in horizontal, pull in diagonal.
00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:36.640
Goo goo yimither people, all right?
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:52.799
Goo goo yimmither people, when you put the three sticks in there and say there's one vertical, one diagonal, one horizontal, when you bring them to the next room, and what the idea is that the next room is oriented differently, and then you say recreate the pattern, they don't put they won't put a stick vertical, a stick horizontal, and a stick diagonal.
00:20:52.960 --> 00:21:01.440
They will arrange each of the sticks to be in the orientation directionally that was the consistent with the previous room.
00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:08.240
So imagine if the one stick that is vertical, the top of it's pointing north and the bottom of it is pointing south.
00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:16.960
If they move into the next room and then all of a sudden, you know, they're they're they're shifted 90 degrees, they will place that stick so it's you know east-west instead of north-south.
00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:22.160
They'll place the diagonal one, same relationship, they'll take the the they'll place the other thing, same, same relationship.
00:21:22.319 --> 00:21:25.599
So it's not like you're looking at like one vertical, one horizontal, one diagonal.
00:21:25.759 --> 00:21:33.039
All of the sticks are going to be completely oriented differently because they're not viewing themselves as the object in the center.
00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:36.319
And so this that's basically that is basically how their mind works.
00:21:36.400 --> 00:21:50.079
And because of because of this, because of their language and the way that they communicate and the necessity of their communication, their brain works completely differently, and they have essentially a superpower.
00:21:50.240 --> 00:21:51.440
Like basically a superpower.
00:21:51.519 --> 00:21:59.599
I mean, I don't think that there's I don't know a single person who, if you were to do anything like that, would be even remotely oriented to where they are, and yet somehow.
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:10.000
because of the language and because of the this necessity that they have, they're they have this this capability that is basically impossible for other people to have.
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:12.480
So Googie Yumith are crazy.
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:14.160
Alright, let me give you another example.
00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:14.720
Alright.
00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:16.640
Let me give you another example here.
00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:22.640
Alright, the next example is the Himba people of Northern Namibia.
00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:24.319
Namibia.
00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:24.960
Okay.
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:32.640
So these people they do not have a dis a single distinct word for blue.
00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:33.119
Alright?
00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.759
The color blue doesn't like that word doesn't exist in their vocabulary.
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:38.319
Alright?
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:45.200
So they might have a they may they might have a word a word called buru for like certain kind of like greens, blues.
00:22:45.279 --> 00:22:48.960
It kind of like you know buru basically means green and blue for them.
00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:55.839
And then they have another word zuzu for dark shades like a really dark blue a really dark green or a dark or dark black.
00:22:56.000 --> 00:23:08.720
But like blues and greens like as you imagine you know like a like a blue car or something like a light blue car like baby blue, they don't have a word that distinguishes like baby blue from like you know like a like a you know like a calm green or something like that like not a dark green.
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:28.799
So what they have found is that when they will show a color wheel to these these these Himba people they'll show them a color wheel with like 11 circles that are all green and then one one of the circles is blue and they take like forever if at all to find which one is blue.
00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:38.799
So they're literally they're literally looking at a color wheel where 10 of the options are green like clearly green to to us to to you know people that speak English and then one of them is just blue.
00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:46.799
And they don't they they won't be able to distinguish between the green and the blue and it's because their language it's not a necessity for them to be able to do this.
00:23:46.880 --> 00:23:49.680
Their communication it's not coded in there.
00:23:49.920 --> 00:24:03.680
And so it literally inhibits their ability to see the difference between these colors you know do you realize how crazy that is they literally like can't see these differences because their language simply doesn't have a word for it.
00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:28.960
And it makes sense when you think about it because think about whenever you're having a thought your thought is always in English right and I remember when I was younger someone brought this up and I was like oh that's like stupid of course I can think without language but think about it can you can you really think without language like if you if you're in your head completely and you don't talk to anyone all day and you're purely in your thoughts and you sit down and you think about your thoughts your thoughts are pretty much all in English.
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:42.720
At least my my thoughts are I'd be interested to hear if if yours if yours aren't but basically the entire way that you interpret the world see the world interact with the world and your processing of it more importantly is all through language.
00:24:42.960 --> 00:25:14.559
And so what we're seeing here with Google Gamether and with the Himba people is that there is actually there's more to perception than we are really aware of there's actually an ability for us to be completely all the time exactly oriented towards where true north, south, east and west are you know maybe there's even potentially colors that we're able that we would theoretically be able to see and distinguish but because our language doesn't you know have a distinction for them we're literally not able to see them.
00:25:14.640 --> 00:25:23.839
And so I just want to again I'm extrapolating this a little bit out I hit you with the science of the Simba, the the science of the the Himba people, the Guga Yamathir people now I want to now bring it out to a little more speculation.
00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:43.200
So if this is how language can limit your consciousness can limit like literally limit your the output that you're able to get or the input you're able to get from the world who's to say that that phenomenon isn't applicable to other things like manifestation, right?
00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:44.640
Like what Jim Carrey has said.
00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:54.480
He's open to the possibility that all he has to do is read the rosary every day and he'll get the exact bike that he wants in a week maybe that is maybe the universe can work that way.
00:25:54.559 --> 00:26:10.000
Maybe the universe has the possibility of working that way and Jim Carrey just unlocked that when he was a child and some people never unlock that or you know it it they never have the opportunity to unlock it and so it just gets it gets locked to them and then they're not able to reap the rewards of that.
00:26:10.079 --> 00:26:14.799
And that is that is like literally what Jim Carrey argues in his graduation speech.
00:26:14.880 --> 00:26:24.720
He's like this is how as far as he can tell is like you know you you tell the universe what you want and then you just have to let go of how it comes to pass and then it'll come to you.
00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:33.359
So the point is I think that you know there might be something more to the possibilities you can get out of this world but you have to kind of open your mind to doing it.
00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:40.000
And what I'm really interested in exploring in the future is how you can go about unlocking these possibilities in your brain.
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:43.680
I think meditation is a very important one for sure.
00:26:43.839 --> 00:26:46.319
I think belief obviously is very important.
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:51.920
But anyway yeah I want to go more to that so if anyone has ideas please please reach out to me via email or whatever.
00:26:52.000 --> 00:27:05.359
But anyway so last thing that I want to touch on honestly I've pretty much touched on all the ideas but this this this concept is very well um conveyed in the movie Arrival jerry Jeremy Renner Amy Adams those people Lois Lane Hawkeye.
00:27:05.920 --> 00:27:18.400
Basically what happens in the movie is Amy Adams's character it's about essentially an alien invasion like this huge alien ship comes and it's like hovering over Earth and then Amy Adams is a linguist she's like a like a teacher of linguistics.
00:27:18.480 --> 00:27:30.720
And so they bring her on to like basically try to decode this this alien civilization's language because clearly they're trying to communicate with humans but you know they're they're so different that there's this juncture in language that they're trying to overcome.
00:27:31.039 --> 00:27:44.240
All right and so basically the idea what ends up happening is as Amy Adams's character is learning how to understand their language the capability of her brain also expands.
00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:52.240
So the language of the aliens in arrival is nonlinear and they don't view time as like a linear path like past, present future.
00:27:52.319 --> 00:28:00.640
They view it all happening at one time and so what this enables is it makes it so that Amy Adams' character in the movie is literally able to see through time.
00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:13.279
Like she's able to see past present and future events all happening at one time and this enables her to like you know solve like the issue in the in the in the movie and all this stuff because she's able to see what's going to happen.
00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:15.440
She's able to see how it ties in with the past and all this stuff.
00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:17.200
And so that's kind of the idea.
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:23.519
And this is also a very commonly held belief among linguists I've talked to both professors that I've had about it.
00:28:23.599 --> 00:28:35.519
I've talked to a professor in at CNU in China about this and it's pretty it's a pretty widely held belief that language is essentially our filter for how we see the world.
00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:47.440
So there's everything out there that's beyond what your conscious brain is and that your language is essentially the way that you're able to funnel that down into something that you can use and understand and interpret.
00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:50.400
It's basically your means of processing everything.
00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:53.680
And you can't really perceive what you can't process.
00:28:53.759 --> 00:28:56.319
And so there there might be more out there but your language might be limiting you.
00:28:56.400 --> 00:29:01.119
So who's to say that you know if you did learn the right language you actually maybe could see through time.
00:29:01.279 --> 00:29:17.599
Maybe like that is in the in the cards just like you know theoretically being able to always exactly know where true north south east and west is in the cards maybe there's even more expansive possibilities that your mind is theoretically capable of but you're being limited in other ways.
00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:31.119
Who's to say that you know language is the only limiting filter that you interact with in your life right maybe like who's to say that that's the only thing that's you know funneling down what's out in the world into what's possible for you?
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:37.519
You know, so anyway that's kind of the that's kind of the thesis or the kind of the ideas of uh what I wanted to bring up here.
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:38.720
I think it's super interesting.
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:49.920
I think that it's especially now it's very it's you know these these are the kind of things that are being studied a lot more now as we're doing research on things like you know uh DMT, psilocybin.
00:29:50.240 --> 00:29:59.519
I mean, um like like America as a culture really just started coming around to medit meditation in the last you know couple decades whereas you know in Western cultures they've been doing this forever.
00:29:59.599 --> 00:30:05.200
I mean you could talk about like Tai Chi and stuff how people are able to channel their energy into different parts of their body and stuff like this.
00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:16.240
Like there's a lot out there this quote unquote forbidden knowledge that I feel like now especially people are kind of yearning for um and so I'm going to be doing a lot more exploration of those sorts of things.
00:30:16.319 --> 00:30:19.359
But this one I think I've pretty much concluded everything that I want to bring up.
00:30:19.599 --> 00:30:20.960
Thank you very much for listening.
00:30:21.119 --> 00:30:21.920
Have a good one.
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:22.720
Bye
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:00.880
What is up everyone?
00:00:00.959 --> 00:00:02.240
Welcome back to BBTV.
00:00:02.319 --> 00:00:03.439
Thank you very much for joining me today.
00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:07.839
I'm going to be talking about a couple things that I believe are connected.
00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:17.039
And as I kind of bounce in between these couple of different ideas, I'm going to touch on topics of psychology, linguistics, maybe a little bit of philosophy.
00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:43.280
And these things that I'm going to be jumping around between are mainly going to be the Himba people, the Himba people of northern Nimimbea, Namibia, and Gugu Yimither that live in another group of people that live in Northern Australia, specifically their languages and their difference in languages between the way that they speak and the way that most of the rest of the world speaks.
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:49.520
They have some very interesting differences that lead to some very interesting ways that they perceive and interact with the world.
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:53.600
Also, in this, I want to talk about Jim Carrey's graduation speech.
00:00:53.679 --> 00:01:01.280
So he gave a speech at the university or at Maharishi University of Management.
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:09.920
So he gave this speech, uh, and then, you know, I highly recommend also listening to this speech because everyone glazes how it basically can change your life and all this stuff.
00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:11.760
It is a fantastic speech.
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:27.519
And then I also want to talk about the movie Arrival, which is the movie that stars the guy who plays Hawkeye, Jeremy Renner, and the woman who plays Lois Lane in the Henry Cavill Superman series, Amy Adams.
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:30.239
So if you don't know who those two people are, it doesn't really matter.
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.599
It's not relevant to this very much at all, to be honest.
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:38.560
But I do want to start with Jim Carrey's graduation speech because I love a good graduation speech.
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:44.560
And I think that his graduation speech, as well as the famous one that Steve Jobs gave at Stanford, are probably my two favorite.
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:49.120
I think they're the most uh that you can take away the most from them immediately as you listen to them.
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:55.040
But I do think that Jim Carrey's is probably my favorite for one because he's a much more entertaining speaker than Steve Jobs is.
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:55.920
Like he's just funnier.
00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:02.239
And then also the stuff that he brings in is a little more woo-woo, you could say, which excites me.
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:11.439
It excites me when people go up and they're in positions where they've seen a lot of success in the world, and it seems like they've unlocked some sort of secret key that people don't know about.
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:15.360
And that is kind of what Jim Carrey does here, whether it's legitimate or not.
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:16.159
So he tells the story.
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:17.680
I'm basically just going to briefly synopsize it.
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:20.560
I'm not going to focus on the details because it's more the overarching message that matters.
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:30.479
But basically, he was he was a young kid, he had a teacher, and the teacher basically said that whenever she wants something, she asks for it, and then she says that she'll give something up in exchange.
00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:36.560
Usually it's like, you know, like, oh, like I'll do the prayer, I'll read the book of whatever it is, book of James, and then I want this thing.
00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:41.039
And then whenever she does that, whenever she does that exchange, she always gets what she wants.
00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:46.800
And so this story, this method of getting things that you want stuck with Jim Carrey.
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:55.520
And so what he did is he basically said that he wanted he wanted a bike because his family was poor and his family could not afford a bike.
00:02:55.599 --> 00:03:08.000
And so he did this prayer, and he said that he will read the rosary every every night, the rosary part of the Bible, I believe, and then he said that you read it every night if he gets, you know, and then in return he wants this bike.
00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:15.919
And it, you know, he talks about how it's like this fancy bike with like these nice chopper handle bars and like a banana seed, all this fancy stuff that he knows his family can't afford.
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:20.080
So anyway, he does this and he doesn't actually even end up reading the rosary every night.
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:25.919
He ends up falling short on the uh his delivery of his end of the bargain.
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:28.800
But then a couple weeks later, he comes back, and what's this?
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:37.039
It's like the exact bike that he envisioned with the nice handlebars, with the banana seat, and it's just sitting on his front porch, and he's like, What is this?
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:38.639
How does this how did this get here?
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:58.879
And so then upon you know, sleuthing around and finding out what went down, it turns out that his buddy had put him into a raffle, a raffle, and he had won this bike without him ever even having to have done anything for it, and without him ever even having known about the raffle that resulted in him winning it.
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:04.400
So, talk about a miracle, that is like literally how that is as miraculous as it gets.
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:08.159
I mean, if I experienced that when I was younger, that would probably re completely reframe the way that I looked at the world.
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:23.680
So, anyway, but he basically explains that then from that point forward, his entire career basically just unfolded in this way, where he would just do this like kind of like law of exchange is something that people say a lot in like the comment sections of my videos and stuff.
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:28.480
Um, but basically it's like, you know, I'll give this up and I want this in return, and then is in and then you know, you get it.
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:33.360
Even sometimes when you don't um, you know, necessarily hold up your end of the bargain.
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:36.879
And so part of the idea here is you know, that kind of manifestation thing.
00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:43.120
Part of the idea, um, yeah, I mean it's basically it's basically this is as raw like manifestation as you can possibly get.
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:52.079
And then again, Jim Carrey, the interesting part is that he says that this is that is the that has been the undertone, the underlying mechanism behind all of his success for the rest of his life.
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:53.360
So very crazy.
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:55.439
I just okay, so I want to throw that one out there.
00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:06.800
Um, because it's very important because I think that genuinely, I believe that he might have actually been tapping into something that is like legit in the universe.
00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:08.319
I'm going into more speculation here, right?
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:09.600
So what I'm saying right now isn't science.
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:15.600
I'm gonna go into more science stuff that backs this up later, but I'm just gonna kind of preface the thesis of everything that I'm gonna say in this podcast.
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:36.800
So I think that there is more to this idea of manifestation, to like releasing energy or putting something out there and then having what comes back, like that relationship between what you put out and what you comes back, I think is more like tangible and real than people admit or than people accept to be the case in their lives.
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:45.360
Like, I mean, it even is in science, and I feel like there are some laws like Newton's laws of physics, where it's you know, like every force has an equal and opposite reaction.
00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:50.959
I don't know why that law would apply purely to physical material objects.
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:59.920
I feel like it might make sense for that law to like permeate out even into like the whatever emotions are, whatever ideas are, whatever, you know, psychic waves there might be in the air.
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:08.160
Again, I don't want to get too hokey with it, but the fact that that's a law of physics, and presumably the laws of physics carry over, I don't know, into like maybe other dimensions and stuff like that.
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:10.240
You know, they're under the underlying mathematics.
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:15.759
Like Newton's stuff was founded in mathematics, and I feel like mathematics is like a guiding principle of pretty much everything that happens in the world.
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:21.839
So I feel like there's something with that equal opposite, equal exchange that kind of Jim Carrey is talking about here.
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:25.120
I don't really know exactly what it is, but that's that's what I think.
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:37.360
So let me get into some other examples, and specifically, I want these examples to expand your idea of how exactly this came to be for Jim Carrey specifically, and how for a lot of people this doesn't come to be.
00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:42.639
You know, a lot of people ask for a lot of things in the universe day to day and they don't get them.
00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:44.160
So why is this?
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:47.199
And again, I'm gonna preface it with my thesis here.
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:57.120
I think that it's because people like sub either subconsciously or consciously, probably mostly subconsciously, they close themselves off from the idea that when they ask something, they will actually get it.
00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:03.759
And you know, that they'll talk about this like in church, for instance, that you know, you'll you'll you'll you'll do a prayer, but then you'll caveat it.
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:10.160
So you'll be like, oh, like, you know, like I really would like this, but you know, if I don't get it, I understand it's you know, not maybe it's not like the time for that and all that.
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:26.319
Um so I don't know if that if that if that strikes a chord with anyone, but I do think that there is, it speaks to this element of when people want something and when they ask God or the universe or their own God, whatever, whatever it might be, there is kind of like that back in the back of their mind, they're like, oh, like this probably won't work.
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.399
I'm probably not actually speaking to anything here, maybe this isn't blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:42.720
And I think that that, that maybe that um, like that chink in your armor, that chink in your manifestation armor, you might say, could be the weakness that actually disables you from being able to get it.
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.160
Because I think like with Jim Carrey's story, this happened to him at such an early age.
00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:54.079
Like, I mean, if this happens when you're in second grade, you know, you're like, you're like eight, nine years old, if this happened to me, I would be like, oh, this is just the way the world works.
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:54.800
You know what I mean?
00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:57.519
Like if I do something, I get something back, which makes total sense.
00:07:57.600 --> 00:07:58.959
I mean, as an adult, you think that too, right?
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:03.839
You know, you go to work and you get a paycheck back, you go to the gym, you get muscles back, you go to, you know, whatever.
00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:06.800
It's it's this exchange that happens like all throughout the world.
00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:16.079
But I think that maybe he tapped into like this little bit of a deeper level of it, where he was like, oh, like this exchange is literally like just like one for one.
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.000
Like all I have to do is ask for something specific.
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:22.000
And then he had the expectation that it was going to happen, and so therefore it happened.
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:24.639
And then there's a lot of, you know, kind of layers that you can go into this.
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:31.360
A lot of people, when they're talking about manifestation, they talk about how you need to manifest from a place of abundance, like a place where you already have it.
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:42.240
You can't manifest from a place of like lacking, because if you're lacking and then you're always trying to chase these ideas, then you won't get them because you need to like embody what it's like to be the person who already has them.
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:51.679
And so similarly, like that aligns with this because in Jim Carrey's thing, he's like, you know, he it at no point in the speech was he like, oh, I doubted that I would, you know, I didn't think that this was gonna work, the bicycle thing.
00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:55.759
It was like, oh, like this teacher taught me this thing about how the world works, I'm gonna go do it, and then it worked.
00:08:55.840 --> 00:09:06.799
And so then he's like, okay, I'm just gonna keep doing this, and it kept working for him because again, his his brain never shut the door that enabled those sorts of things to happen for him, right?
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:10.799
The brain, the brain never shut the door that enabled for those things to happen to them.
00:09:10.879 --> 00:09:15.919
And that kind of goes into a little bit, if I want to talk on some neuroscience here, the idea of pruning.
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:23.759
So when you're when you're a baby and you're born, you actually have about twice as much synaptic activity in your brain as a full-grown adult.
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:28.559
So your brain is actually way more active, it's firing a lot more when you're a child.
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:42.879
And and this is part of the reason why, like, you know, you'll see child and children and they're pointing, like when they're really young, you know, they'll they'll be laying on the bed and they'll just be pointing up at the ceiling, and people are always like, oh, like, you know, they're seeing ghosts, they're seeing the souls, they're seeing, you know, like their their elders or their ancestors or whatever.
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:53.840
But actually, a lot of this is because they are literally seeing um just a lot more, they're they're taking in way more data, data that your adult brain has learned to filter out over time.
00:09:54.000 --> 00:10:05.440
And so one example that I think is very interesting for this is like babies can recognize the differences in faces between animals just as well as they can between human beings.
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:10.320
So if you were to show a baby two lemurs, like think like lemurs like the ones from Madagascar.
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.120
Obviously, the ones in the movie Madagascar have very distinct features.
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:19.120
But if you look at two, if at least if I look at a picture of two lemurs in real life, I can't distinguish between two lemurs.
00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:23.279
I don't even think I could distinguish really between like a male and a female, much less two males or two females.
00:10:23.440 --> 00:10:27.519
But babies can distinguish it as well as they're able to distinguish human faces.
00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:28.639
Same with monkeys and all this stuff.
00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:45.919
And there's countless examples of things that babies can discern extremely well, that as you're an adult and as you grow older, and as this process of pruning, right, pruning basically means like if you have a branch and you start cutting off, you know, the smaller branches that are on the side to make it smooth, that is what's happening to their brain.
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:53.919
And so at some point in their adult life, as they're growing up, they're like, okay, like being able to distinguish two lemurs is taking up, you know, that's not necessary brain activity for my survival.
00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:56.240
So it cuts it out, and then you literally lose that ability.
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:01.279
You literally lose the ability to see the difference between two lemurs' faces.
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:04.159
And maybe if you exercise it a ton day after day, you know, you can get better.
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:10.240
But it's the same thing as like, you know, why it's easier for children to learn languages is because their brains are a lot more, they're like sponges.
00:11:10.320 --> 00:11:15.519
Like they're a lot more open and able to absorb knowledge and different perspectives.
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:42.240
And I would even say if you look at like brain scans of people that are on psychedelic psychoactive drugs like psilocybin or LSD or MDMA, all of these things, that brain activity, I know that they did a study, I believe it was at Yale, or this was sort, um, I think it was the the sources from Yale, but it was saying that when you're on in these clinical studies that they've done with psilocybin, your your brain activity increases by around 10%, uh, your synaptic activity.
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:49.840
And so when you're a baby, your your your brain activity is increased by like 100% because it's like roughly double the amount of synaptic activity as when you're an adult.
00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:55.200
So if you think about it, babies could be like the visual stuff that they're taking in could be insane.
00:11:55.279 --> 00:12:01.360
Like they could be seeing the world as like swirls, like it's like a Van Gogh painting, like all of these things moving in and out of each other.
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:17.759
And then all of a sudden, you know, as they grow older and they, you know, accidentally run into a wall, whatever swirls and stuff that are associated or uh represent that wall suddenly become more and more embedded in their brain because their brain starts to cut out all of the stuff that might distract them from that important piece of information, you know, knowing that a wall is right in front of you.
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:23.279
So I think it's possible that babies have like just a ridiculously open mind to the way the world works.
00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:26.799
And again, it it gets cut down, which is scientifically that is facts.
00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:46.879
I I'm I'm I'm stretching a little bit when I say, you know, that maybe they're like tripping, or maybe they're having like trip-like visuals, because first of all, I don't know like what those are firsthand, but also um, I'm just saying, you know, in terms of brain activity, those two things are somewhat like they're uh not related, but you know, they're they're they're they can be they can be looked at and similar in some ways.
00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:49.919
So again, take that with a grain of salt, but do know that pruning is a real thing.
00:12:50.080 --> 00:13:00.399
Babies have um about twice as much synaptic activity when they're when they're younger, and that they're able to have these distinctions and look at the world in different ways that adult minds simply are not capable of.
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:04.320
You can't teach an old dog new tricks, as they say.
00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:20.559
So, anyway, so my thing is that basically, what if Jim Carrey's brain was at this point in his life where he hadn't yet been pruned as to the way that you can reap rewards or manifest things in the real world, all right?
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:32.639
And so, like maybe you have like another kid who just, you know, he's eight, so so imagine like Jim Carrey, eight years old, learns that if he if he asks for something and then gives a little something up, that he gets it immediately.
00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:38.000
Versus say, like, you know, there's another kid who never gets this this green this this bike.
00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:44.480
Say he, you know, he learns that Santa isn't real and that he's not gonna get a gift because you know his parents can't afford it and stuff.
00:13:44.559 --> 00:13:46.000
And so that's the lesson that that kid learned.
00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:57.279
So that kid learns a lesson of limiting of resource scarcity versus Jim Carrey learns this thing of like, oh, abundance, possibility, unlimited, whatever.
00:13:58.159 --> 00:13:59.120
Is it possible?
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:01.120
And again, I don't I don't know if this is true.
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:14.720
I'm getting a little woo-woo here, I'm not gonna lie, but like, is it possible that because of the nature of Jim Carrey's takeaway from that experience, his ability to reap the rewards from that method were then opened up?
00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:26.240
So, like that other kid, you know, if in the future he's like the other, say the other kid who learns about scarcity, learns that Santa isn't real, whatever, it's not gonna work out for him, or you know, that he can't just ask for something and then it comes miraculously.
00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:39.360
Is that kid like in the future, if if he, you know, when he's like when he's like 25 and he's like, okay, like I want this, I imagine that that kid's brain is probably gonna go to like, oh, well, I can't have it because, you know, I don't have the money for it.
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:49.039
I can't have it because, you know, of X, Y, Z, all of these reasons, these, you know, sensible reasons as to why, you know, something isn't just gonna fall out of thin air for him.
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:53.120
Versus Jim Carrey, his foundational experiences, you know, that can happen.
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:54.240
It's possible.
00:14:54.480 --> 00:15:09.679
And maybe like that distinction between the way their their consciousnesses are interpreting that, maybe that like the waves of like they're literally like their brain waves or something, like move out, and then what comes back relates to what their current experience is.
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:15.840
And I think that's kind of like the idea of what manifestation is, or not their current experience, but what their their outlook is on life.
00:15:15.919 --> 00:15:25.120
So because Jim Carrey is open to the possibility of the world working that way, it does in fact have the option and oftentimes does work in that way for him.
00:15:25.200 --> 00:15:27.519
Versus the other guy, that option is completely closed off.
00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:30.879
And so he doesn't, you know, it's not even it's not even available to him.
00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:40.000
And I think that there even even if you don't believe in like the woo-woo like crazy stuff, there is, there is like the same with like the the kid, like the the children's synaptic activity brain.
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:44.720
Like there is a kind of extreme spiritual direction you can you can look at this and speculate on.
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:49.759
But then there is like a like a like a like a legit scientific factual basis for each of these.
00:15:49.840 --> 00:16:01.200
Because with this one, it's like, I mean, people always talk about like the importance of self-belief is like everything, because if you don't believe that you can achieve something, you're not gonna put in the the work to achieve it, and so you're never gonna achieve it, right?
00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:06.879
Like, say you want to, you know, you want to start a podcast that's gonna be, you know, the the biggest podcast in the world, right?
00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:15.600
Well, if you don't believe that you can do that, you're never gonna make an episode, you're never gonna stick with it, you're never gonna put like you're never gonna do all the things it would take to get there, and so you'll never have it.
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:21.039
And so, like that is a factual, like that is like that is a correlated thing.
00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:24.879
If you don't believe you're you can do something, it's not, it's probably not gonna happen.
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:42.799
So maybe you know, you take that one step further, and it's you know, there's something in the universe, there's some some like energy, some manifestation, something that like that that dynamic, that idea of believing in yourself and it can happen, is a microcosm for the way that things like really work.
00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:45.840
And you can you could go into like you know, oh, it's like dimensions and like all this stuff.
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:46.720
I I I don't really know.
00:16:46.799 --> 00:16:47.600
I'm not gonna go into it.
00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:54.399
I'm not like I'm not articulate enough to be able to say that stuff in a way that'll make sense, but I feel like if you're on the same wavelength, you get what I mean.
00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:58.639
But I'm going to continue building on this idea with a couple more examples here.
00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:00.399
All right, so Goo Yimither.
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:17.519
Goo goo yimither is a tribe in Northern Australia, all right, and their language is completely different, completely different than English, completely different than pretty much any other language in the world, in that it's not really egocentric, it's directionally based, okay?
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:21.680
And this is I'm gonna I'm gonna have to explain this a decent bit because it's it's a little bit it's a little bit hard to grasp.
00:17:21.839 --> 00:17:28.000
But so if I say, you know, um, like, can you put your water bottle down to the right of you?
00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:30.559
All right, you'll you know, you'll set it down by your right leg.
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:35.119
If if I say, can you put your bottle down to the left of you, you know, you put it down by your left leg, you get it.
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:40.960
Goo Yemether, they don't have words like that because nothing relates to where they are in space.
00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:54.720
So if I was like, can you put your if I said, can you put your water bottle down to your um to your right in Goo Yemether, if I was speaking Goo Yemether and I said that, I would say basically, can you put your water bottle down to the south of you?
00:17:54.880 --> 00:17:58.400
If you were standing so that your right side is to the south of you.
00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:04.319
But then you know, if you flipped around 90 degrees, I would say, can you put the water bottle down to the north of you?
00:18:04.640 --> 00:18:13.200
So the idea is that you're instructing or your the way that you talk spatially is purely directional.
00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:14.960
It's not based like on a person.
00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:19.599
Like you don't put something in front of you, you put something to the north of you if you're oriented towards north.
00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:22.559
Or if I'm oriented towards west and I'm like, all right, I'm gonna put this in front of me.
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:25.359
I'm saying I'm gonna put this to the west of me.
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:36.559
Same like, you know, if you move something to the corner of the table, I don't say move it to the corner of the table, I say move it to like, you know, whatever, the southeast or wherever the cornal, the wherever the corner of the table is relative to space.
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:41.759
All right, so I'm hoping this makes sense because it's gonna be insane if you understand that part.
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:42.240
All right.
00:18:42.319 --> 00:18:46.000
So they've done insane experiments on these people, all right?
00:18:46.160 --> 00:18:50.160
I mean, they have like literally blindfolded them, spun them around until they're dizzy.
00:18:50.240 --> 00:19:03.200
They've driven them out into like deserts, completely desolate areas, into rooms with no windows or anything like that, and spin them around again to like they've done all like that this group of people is extensively, extensively studied.
00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:05.599
And you cannot disorient these people, okay?
00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:17.759
Like you can put them in a room completely black, spin them around until they're dizzy, and then open their eyes, and then they will have the ability to tell north, east, south, and west almost as accurately as a compass.
00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:21.759
Like if you were to have a magnet, a magnetic compass like pointing towards true north.
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:27.440
Like their accuracy is unreal and it's unbreakable because it's critical for how they communicate.
00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:37.440
Because every time they, you know, say anything with direction, it's always based in um, it's always you know like direction is key to the way that they communicate, it's essential for them.
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:46.079
So another example, they took two people, they took like an English speaker and they took a Goo-Guy Yimither speaker and they put them in front of a table.
00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:46.559
All right.
00:19:46.720 --> 00:19:52.240
And then I'm gonna simplify this experiment a little bit, um, but I it's the it this is the experiment that happened.
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:57.519
But so basically, imagine you're sitting at a table and someone drops three sticks in front of you, all right.
00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:04.960
Say they drop three sticks on the table in front of you, and one of them lands, you know, straight up and down, one of them kind of lands diagonal to the right, and then one of them lands like perfectly horizontal.
00:20:05.039 --> 00:20:07.440
All right, so there's a vertical one, a horizontal one, diagonal one.
00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:15.039
All right, and then say, you know, they take me into a different room, bring me somewhere else, and then they say, all right, recreate the shape of what happened.
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:19.359
Well, obviously, I'm gonna put one stick vertical, I'm gonna put one stick horizontal and one stick diagonal.
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:31.279
They're they're literally just like recreate the shape of what of what happened, like recreate the the stick orientation or recreate, you know, the the pattern of the sticks that you saw in the previous room.
00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:34.640
Okay, so that's what I would do, you know, I'd pull in vertical, pull in horizontal, pull in diagonal.
00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:36.640
Goo goo yimither people, all right?
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:52.799
Goo goo yimmither people, when you put the three sticks in there and say there's one vertical, one diagonal, one horizontal, when you bring them to the next room, and what the idea is that the next room is oriented differently, and then you say recreate the pattern, they don't put they won't put a stick vertical, a stick horizontal, and a stick diagonal.
00:20:52.960 --> 00:21:01.440
They will arrange each of the sticks to be in the orientation directionally that was the consistent with the previous room.
00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:08.240
So imagine if the one stick that is vertical, the top of it's pointing north and the bottom of it is pointing south.
00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:16.960
If they move into the next room and then all of a sudden, you know, they're they're they're shifted 90 degrees, they will place that stick so it's you know east-west instead of north-south.
00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:22.160
They'll place the diagonal one, same relationship, they'll take the the they'll place the other thing, same, same relationship.
00:21:22.319 --> 00:21:25.599
So it's not like you're looking at like one vertical, one horizontal, one diagonal.
00:21:25.759 --> 00:21:33.039
All of the sticks are going to be completely oriented differently because they're not viewing themselves as the object in the center.
00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:36.319
And so this that's basically that is basically how their mind works.
00:21:36.400 --> 00:21:50.079
And because of because of this, because of their language and the way that they communicate and the necessity of their communication, their brain works completely differently, and they have essentially a superpower.
00:21:50.240 --> 00:21:51.440
Like basically a superpower.
00:21:51.519 --> 00:21:59.599
I mean, I don't think that there's I don't know a single person who, if you were to do anything like that, would be even remotely oriented to where they are, and yet somehow.
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:10.000
because of the language and because of the this necessity that they have, they're they have this this capability that is basically impossible for other people to have.
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:12.480
So Googie Yumith are crazy.
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:14.160
Alright, let me give you another example.
00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:14.720
Alright.
00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:16.640
Let me give you another example here.
00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:22.640
Alright, the next example is the Himba people of Northern Namibia.
00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:24.319
Namibia.
00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:24.960
Okay.
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:32.640
So these people they do not have a dis a single distinct word for blue.
00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:33.119
Alright?
00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.759
The color blue doesn't like that word doesn't exist in their vocabulary.
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:38.319
Alright?
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:45.200
So they might have a they may they might have a word a word called buru for like certain kind of like greens, blues.
00:22:45.279 --> 00:22:48.960
It kind of like you know buru basically means green and blue for them.
00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:55.839
And then they have another word zuzu for dark shades like a really dark blue a really dark green or a dark or dark black.
00:22:56.000 --> 00:23:08.720
But like blues and greens like as you imagine you know like a like a blue car or something like a light blue car like baby blue, they don't have a word that distinguishes like baby blue from like you know like a like a you know like a calm green or something like that like not a dark green.
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:28.799
So what they have found is that when they will show a color wheel to these these these Himba people they'll show them a color wheel with like 11 circles that are all green and then one one of the circles is blue and they take like forever if at all to find which one is blue.
00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:38.799
So they're literally they're literally looking at a color wheel where 10 of the options are green like clearly green to to us to to you know people that speak English and then one of them is just blue.
00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:46.799
And they don't they they won't be able to distinguish between the green and the blue and it's because their language it's not a necessity for them to be able to do this.
00:23:46.880 --> 00:23:49.680
Their communication it's not coded in there.
00:23:49.920 --> 00:24:03.680
And so it literally inhibits their ability to see the difference between these colors you know do you realize how crazy that is they literally like can't see these differences because their language simply doesn't have a word for it.
00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:28.960
And it makes sense when you think about it because think about whenever you're having a thought your thought is always in English right and I remember when I was younger someone brought this up and I was like oh that's like stupid of course I can think without language but think about it can you can you really think without language like if you if you're in your head completely and you don't talk to anyone all day and you're purely in your thoughts and you sit down and you think about your thoughts your thoughts are pretty much all in English.
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:42.720
At least my my thoughts are I'd be interested to hear if if yours if yours aren't but basically the entire way that you interpret the world see the world interact with the world and your processing of it more importantly is all through language.
00:24:42.960 --> 00:25:14.559
And so what we're seeing here with Google Gamether and with the Himba people is that there is actually there's more to perception than we are really aware of there's actually an ability for us to be completely all the time exactly oriented towards where true north, south, east and west are you know maybe there's even potentially colors that we're able that we would theoretically be able to see and distinguish but because our language doesn't you know have a distinction for them we're literally not able to see them.
00:25:14.640 --> 00:25:23.839
And so I just want to again I'm extrapolating this a little bit out I hit you with the science of the Simba, the the science of the the Himba people, the Guga Yamathir people now I want to now bring it out to a little more speculation.
00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:43.200
So if this is how language can limit your consciousness can limit like literally limit your the output that you're able to get or the input you're able to get from the world who's to say that that phenomenon isn't applicable to other things like manifestation, right?
00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:44.640
Like what Jim Carrey has said.
00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:54.480
He's open to the possibility that all he has to do is read the rosary every day and he'll get the exact bike that he wants in a week maybe that is maybe the universe can work that way.
00:25:54.559 --> 00:26:10.000
Maybe the universe has the possibility of working that way and Jim Carrey just unlocked that when he was a child and some people never unlock that or you know it it they never have the opportunity to unlock it and so it just gets it gets locked to them and then they're not able to reap the rewards of that.
00:26:10.079 --> 00:26:14.799
And that is that is like literally what Jim Carrey argues in his graduation speech.
00:26:14.880 --> 00:26:24.720
He's like this is how as far as he can tell is like you know you you tell the universe what you want and then you just have to let go of how it comes to pass and then it'll come to you.
00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:33.359
So the point is I think that you know there might be something more to the possibilities you can get out of this world but you have to kind of open your mind to doing it.
00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:40.000
And what I'm really interested in exploring in the future is how you can go about unlocking these possibilities in your brain.
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:43.680
I think meditation is a very important one for sure.
00:26:43.839 --> 00:26:46.319
I think belief obviously is very important.
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:51.920
But anyway yeah I want to go more to that so if anyone has ideas please please reach out to me via email or whatever.
00:26:52.000 --> 00:27:05.359
But anyway so last thing that I want to touch on honestly I've pretty much touched on all the ideas but this this this concept is very well um conveyed in the movie Arrival jerry Jeremy Renner Amy Adams those people Lois Lane Hawkeye.
00:27:05.920 --> 00:27:18.400
Basically what happens in the movie is Amy Adams's character it's about essentially an alien invasion like this huge alien ship comes and it's like hovering over Earth and then Amy Adams is a linguist she's like a like a teacher of linguistics.
00:27:18.480 --> 00:27:30.720
And so they bring her on to like basically try to decode this this alien civilization's language because clearly they're trying to communicate with humans but you know they're they're so different that there's this juncture in language that they're trying to overcome.
00:27:31.039 --> 00:27:44.240
All right and so basically the idea what ends up happening is as Amy Adams's character is learning how to understand their language the capability of her brain also expands.
00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:52.240
So the language of the aliens in arrival is nonlinear and they don't view time as like a linear path like past, present future.
00:27:52.319 --> 00:28:00.640
They view it all happening at one time and so what this enables is it makes it so that Amy Adams' character in the movie is literally able to see through time.
00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:13.279
Like she's able to see past present and future events all happening at one time and this enables her to like you know solve like the issue in the in the in the movie and all this stuff because she's able to see what's going to happen.
00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:15.440
She's able to see how it ties in with the past and all this stuff.
00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:17.200
And so that's kind of the idea.
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:23.519
And this is also a very commonly held belief among linguists I've talked to both professors that I've had about it.
00:28:23.599 --> 00:28:35.519
I've talked to a professor in at CNU in China about this and it's pretty it's a pretty widely held belief that language is essentially our filter for how we see the world.
00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:47.440
So there's everything out there that's beyond what your conscious brain is and that your language is essentially the way that you're able to funnel that down into something that you can use and understand and interpret.
00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:50.400
It's basically your means of processing everything.
00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:53.680
And you can't really perceive what you can't process.
00:28:53.759 --> 00:28:56.319
And so there there might be more out there but your language might be limiting you.
00:28:56.400 --> 00:29:01.119
So who's to say that you know if you did learn the right language you actually maybe could see through time.
00:29:01.279 --> 00:29:17.599
Maybe like that is in the in the cards just like you know theoretically being able to always exactly know where true north south east and west is in the cards maybe there's even more expansive possibilities that your mind is theoretically capable of but you're being limited in other ways.
00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:31.119
Who's to say that you know language is the only limiting filter that you interact with in your life right maybe like who's to say that that's the only thing that's you know funneling down what's out in the world into what's possible for you?
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:37.519
You know, so anyway that's kind of the that's kind of the thesis or the kind of the ideas of uh what I wanted to bring up here.
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:38.720
I think it's super interesting.
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:49.920
I think that it's especially now it's very it's you know these these are the kind of things that are being studied a lot more now as we're doing research on things like you know uh DMT, psilocybin.
00:29:50.240 --> 00:29:59.519
I mean, um like like America as a culture really just started coming around to medit meditation in the last you know couple decades whereas you know in Western cultures they've been doing this forever.
00:29:59.599 --> 00:30:05.200
I mean you could talk about like Tai Chi and stuff how people are able to channel their energy into different parts of their body and stuff like this.
00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:16.240
Like there's a lot out there this quote unquote forbidden knowledge that I feel like now especially people are kind of yearning for um and so I'm going to be doing a lot more exploration of those sorts of things.
00:30:16.319 --> 00:30:19.359
But this one I think I've pretty much concluded everything that I want to bring up.
00:30:19.599 --> 00:30:20.960
Thank you very much for listening.
00:30:21.119 --> 00:30:21.920
Have a good one.
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:22.720
Bye
