everybody good afternoon my name is
Colin Kim she just mentioned and before
I get started I’d like to offer a note
of gratitude to my dear friends and
mentors guru Singh guru Donn his wife
Jenny Benjamin and also my closest
friend Robin hiden a lot of the wisdom
that I’m sharing with you today has come
through developing conversations over
maybe the past 25 years of my life with
those four people and I adore them for
that what I need right now or what I
have actually is a hundred dollars for a
volunteer your hand went up first okay
they’ve gone up what’s your name okay so
we got Angela here let’s have a round of
applause for Angela you can go ahead and
have that right away
that’s yours to keep yes and what I
would like you to do and we’re gonna
help her out I want her to try and blow
up this balloon as big as possible in
ten seconds so we’re gonna count we’re
gonna clap and count down from ten so
it’s gonna be about this fast
ten nine about that quick okay you’re
gonna take this balloon okay and on the
count of three we’re gonna get started
come down I want you to try and blow
that balloon up maybe even so big that
it will pop but you can’t use your teeth
or your fingers okay Cumpston on the
redhead circle or it’s not official okay
are you ready Angela okay Ready Set
let’s go ten nine eight seven six five
four three two one okay it didn’t happen
but that’s okay what you’ve given me
you’re going to sit down I see you the
reason I use this blue an example is
because what I wanted to demonstrate you
know when you get a balloon from
Hallmark it’s fresh like this but when a
balloons been inflated it looks wilted
and say this after me I’m not a wilted
balloon I’m a fresh happy balloon I am a
fresh happy balloon you know what’s
interesting is a resilient person is
someone who knows that they’re gonna be
wilted and then can return themselves
back to that original state and I want
to talk about this spiritual science of
exactly how that happens
the brain is as majestic as it is it’s a
little dinosaur bitch it’s gone very
little unchanged in some would say
thousands hundreds of thousands millions
of years that’s a whole different
conversation but the brains gotten very
little of brain has gone very little
unchanged you could say that the brain
is like the TSA at the airport the brain
in its fundamental I’ve as long as
possible and it’s just separate its
primary function away from the things
that we feel like thoughts and feelings
and romance and all the other colors of
life so the brain is constantly padding
things down for weapons to make sure
we’re that we’re safe and the way that
it does that scientifically is by taking
a really deep breath in and this is
there’s other things that contribute to
this which I’m gonna share with you but
the main thing is is taking a really
deep breath in inhaling positive ion
which I’d like you to do with me now
take a deep breath in and then pause you
observe the observation and as you
exhale we exhale negative ion in fact
the word namaste nama means the Divine
Name so even if someone offends me the
divine name of that person spiritually
is the fact that they’re connected to
the great one spirit can I get a thumbs
up on that you understand so we have to
be able to see through the offense to be
able to talk to the nama-stay
is the sound that our breath makes when
we have a satisfied exhale so – namaste
isn’t just a salutation like Aloha in
Hawaii – actually namaste is actually a
physical experience you can have which
is to inhale the present moment and
before you exhale you have to figure out
how to resolve the situation with a
Content spiritual exhale and if we don’t
do that what happens is the present
moment it locks onto our spine because
on some deep level the soul knows let’s
say someone bumps my car to Trader Joe’s
and I say stupid bitch I mask it with my
face if there’s an ethnicity attached to
that that I was programmed as a child to
resent her black I could go on and on
and on there might be a negative
attachment with a word that I call the
person but my soul on some level has a
agenda with me to dissolve me into
unconditional love and one of the ways
that the soul has its way with our
physical body is when we take the deep
breath and we take a deep breath out if
a present moment doesn’t go through our
body like a ghost going through a wall
that’s what we want to do in the yogic
teachings at least we want to transcend
the present moment we want to help the
present moment through our consciousness
like a ghost going through a wall and if
that doesn’t happen it doesn’t make us
bad people
it’s what Buddhism and Kabbalah and you
know the yogic and Hindu teachings
called the life condition of being a
human being but if it doesn’t make its
way through our consciousness it
attaches to the spine it goes up the
elevator to the of the spine to the
brain where it gets stored in the brain
as a file to be worked out later in life
is healing and we often work out that
healing we call them lovers that’s a
joke we actually will select people we
will actually pull events specifically
intimate relationships into our life to
heal our childhood and that’s when
romance graduates from something even
higher than romance to spiritual
partnership spiritual partnership is
something different than romance
spiritual partners are people who
understand the variance of being
inflated and deflated what a traumatized
person is and this is the question on
the second point I want to make with you
it’s interesting that two people can
have the exact same experience and one
person will be completely broken and
traumatized for the rest of their life
someone’s gonna be like that’s me and
then another person can be like you know
what that was a really shitty day even a
person who was innocently victimized so
let’s just stay light with me here but
let’s go to something deep like early
sexual ization of a child whether it’s
participatory or not or even an innocent
victim ization of a child something that
deep what happens is and this has been
reported through science you’ve seen
this on 20/20 and primetime live when a
traumatic event happens to the physical
body the spiritual body sends a psychic
sonic boom of energy outward away from
the spine and the yogic teachings we
call this the aura and it pushes beyond
what the physical body can see into the
the entire experience itself and that
infinite sonic boom goes outward away
from that are you still with me
yep when it’s doing that because the
brains job is to keep us alive what the
brain is doing is the brain taxes out
the physical body okay I’m kind of
imitating images you’ve seen that are
frightening and then it’s taking in all
the data it can so people will say like
I remember when that happened when I was
eight there was a smell in the room I
remember that there was a Kleenex box
that I saw when I came in the door but I
wasn’t looking at it when it was
happening all of that data comes rushing
into the spine and what the traumatized
person is doing is actually and it’s it
can seem unfair because the soul has an
agenda with us to do this homework
whether we
participate or not so the soul is going
to have its way and so what we’ll pull
circumstances into our life often people
it can be demoting habits or even
addictions to force us into the edge of
what we think was possible will actually
take field trips star tours out to the
edge of who we think we are in that
traumatic moment just I’m pausing down
for emphasis just to demonstrate to our
own self that were capable of surviving
the event and because we’re not going to
repeat a rape or molestation the brain
has this gremlin way are yes the the
brain has this gremlin way of rican
finding and figure a figuring the pulse
of energy that expanded outward here’s
the thing that I’m here to share with
you today the brain doesn’t know the
difference between the curse of
suffering in life and running star tours
out to the edge of who you are we don’t
want to do that spending our 20s 30s 40s
and the rest of our life just running
field trips out to what we think is
possible be like oh well I survived
I’m yeah we want to while our knees are
young and we can still dance and the sex
is good and we can meet other people the
brain and it go back to the dinosaur
part of the brain the brain on the
deepest level doesn’t know the
difference between you taking a powerful
deep breath locating yourself to the
present moment and the present moment
can be scary especially in the imagery
that I’m sharing with you early on but
you can insert your own life issues
let’s do another breath it feels good
right any Hill real big breathing
satisfies the brain so that your heart
can get a chance with your point of view
and a resilient person is someone who
knows that that’s their homework to do
the person that’s traumatized doesn’t
know yet that that work is necessary but
they will force themselves either into
suicidal behavior or into the processes
that will dissolve them into
unconditional love how I want to leave
you today is talking about the gratitude
portion of resilience I’m coming at you
with the yogic teachings but I think
these are pretty universal how can we
have gratitude for this experience if we
touch the iron and the iron wasn’t
sensationally hot we would continue to
touch the iron it would hurt so at least
in the yoga practice when events come
into our life that cause us offense or
frustration we actually have a huge dose
of gratitude
thankfulness thank you event Wow event
you scared me Wow
that reminded me of when I was 11 that
one time it’s like thank you event
because I know that what you’re doing
event is you’re dissolving me into
unconditional love so that it can find
my self-worth and give and receive love
without any conditions being placed upon
me thoughts feelings and emotions are
facets of who we are but the facets that
are cut into a diamond are not the
diamond itself it’s like Gollum in The
Lord of the Rings just looking at the
sparkles but forgetting that he’s
actually holding it you understand so
when we when we get wrapped up in the
feelings and the emotions of feeling
wilted anywhere between the maximum
stretch of who we are all the way to our
shiny selfs which we love and we wait
when it feels good in yoga we call that
the life conditions you can actually get
stuck in the emotional state of anywhere
from your original state all the way out
to the traumas and crisis’s that you’ve
had in your life
and so with conscious deep breath we
hold ourselves to that home work grace
witnessed is unconditional love I’m
going to close with this when you do the
thing that nobody else can do you to
your own self or also as a demonstration
to anybody observing you and it doesn’t
mean spiritual egoism or hot dogging
because that’s gross but to truly stay
connected to the great one spirit with
your breath inhaling namah the true name
of things it’s hard to namaste when
you’re clicking like and unlike on
Facebook everybody has a point of view
but when we take offense to anything we
turn off all of our spiritual gifts and
what we need are kindergarten teachers
kindergarten teachers are not they’re
immune to the smell of urine and bleach
or maybe not and they just are loving
people who are willing to tolerate it to
do the highest good but that’s what this
world needs people who are resistant to
offense who are standing located to the
present moment not checked out and the
self-help book but staying connected to
the present moment
using their life in a loving way so that
anything and anybody that comes to their
presence is released in the direction
into the river of unconditional love
