don't distro hop nearly as much as I used to I used to distro hop a lot let's just put it that way there was a point in time when I was still you know really new to Linux where I would move between distros basically every other day it was kind of ridiculous if something was even the slightest bit wrong with a distribution or I had any interest in another distribution I would immediately burn to a USB key that ISO and hop away it was a it was an experience because I learned a lot of stuff about Linux during that time now I don't do that so much I found my distro fedora is my distro and I'm happy with it but I still as a Linux YouTuber test out a lot of different Linux distributions so I always have a ton of ISOs lying around and usually that entails me taking an ISO putting on a USB key doing the distro review or whatever I'm going to be doing with it and then you know basically rinse and repeat so I'm always having to use something like DD to actually burn an ISO onto a USB key and do the things that I need to do so when I found a tool called Ventoy that offers to change the whole game I was very interested now I've heard of Ventoy many times in the past and I've tried it one time back when it was really new and it didn't succeed for me it was not a successful endeavor at that time I don't know if it was because of me being an idiot or because it was so new I can't really say but it kind of put me off from trying it again despite the promise of this tool so what does Ventoy actually do and why should you try it well the whole premise is that it allows you to have one USB key which mine looks like this if you can see this little thing and you have this one thing and it you install Ventoy on it and then you can just transfer ISOs onto it and when I say ISOs I mean ISOs as in plural like you can put as many ISOs on that drive as it can fit on it so right now this one has about 10 ISOs on it which is an extraordinary thing right usually when you burn a USB stick it has one ISO on it and it's a one-time use kind of thing you can install just that one ISO and that's all it's done with it until you can go and either format it and use it for another ISO or whatever so Ventoy will allow you to create a stick that has as many ISOs as possible to fit on your USB key and then install just like you would normally so you might be able to see the promise behind this because if you distro hop a lot or even if you don't distro hop but you do try out a lot of distros you can put all of your distros that you could possibly want on a Ventoy stick and just have them all in your pocket for as long as you want and you can from the grub like menu that will I'll show you here right now you can just choose between the distros that are on the stick and install them or even just use the live environment it's really really cool and the thing about it is is that it's not even that hard to install so for Linux you download a tar ball and it has these files inside of it and the one that you'll want will depend on what architecture you're wanting to use me personally I use the Ventoy GUI dot x8664 so I would do dot slash like this and it's gonna ask you for a super user password so you'll need it if you're using a window manager you'll have to have Paul kids insult or if you're using a desktop environment just under your password because it should work no problem and this is what Ventoy will look like you will want to choose the proper drive that you want to make into a ventoy stick make sure you're choosing the right one because I've because this is going to format the desk it's going to just tell you the version of Ventoy that you're going to be installing on if you already have Ventoy on the USB stick it will have something in this box and then you can use this tool to update it to a different version of Ventoy if you want to so you just install it's going to ask you if you're wanting to continue it'll ask you the same question again you hit okay and it'll take a minute or so not even a minute and it's done that's all you have to do now you can close Ventoy and I'm going to open up Crusader here and if you then go to the removable devices and see a removable device called Ventoy you click on that and then you go to your ISOs you can then transfer all of those ISOs over to the stick that you created now this particular stick will won't hold all of these but I could transfer let's say the fedora and the silver blue one over there and just do that and then copy here and it will do its thing it won't even take very long that's it and then when you put this into the computer you want to install on just boot into that USB key just like you would normally with any ISO stick and then it will bring up a Ventoy grub like selector choose the ISO that you want to install or the distro that you want to install and you'll be done that's all there is to it it's so astonishingly simple and works so astonishingly well it's just it's a game changer if you try a lot of distros because you can carry with you as many distros as you want obviously the bigger the USB stick you have the more I shows you can carry so I recommend if you're going to do this have a big one this one here is 128 gigabytes it was like $16 on Amazon which is I mean if you're past the age of like 30 years old you'll remember when a 2 gigabyte stick was like 50 bucks the fact that you can get 128 gigabytes or more for under $20 is just it blew my mind it's even brand name it's really what that's beside the point but the point is then toy is amazing it's a game changer if you choose or if you try a lot of distros it's just it's absolutely amazing I highly recommend you give it a try now there are other features that I haven't got into yet there's a web UI supposedly that does some pretty cool things I don't know what those pretty cool things are I just haven't looked into it yet so that's something that I want to do you can also supposedly set some environment variables on the stick itself so that you can kind of organize the ISO so if you want to create distro directories so you could have a whole bunch of Ubuntu ISOs all in the Ubuntu directory you could do that you can set it up so that it only sees ISOs from one directory if you want to there are many different things you can do with it that I just really haven't played with yet just the base functionality is really cool and that's why I wanted to make this video so if you have thoughts on Ventoy you can leave those thoughts in the comment section below I'd love to hear from you you can follow me on Mastodon or Odyssey those links will be in the video description you can support me on patreon at patreon.com the linux cast links for liberapay and youtube support will be down in the video description below thanks everybody who does support me on patreon youtube you guys are all absolutely amazing without you the channel just not be anywhere near where it is right now so thank you so very very much for your support I truly do appreciate it you guys are all amazing thank you for your support again I really appreciate it thanks everybody for watching I'll see you next time


Hey teammates, Colonel Pat Miller here, Commander of the 88th Air Base Wing and Installation Commander for Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Many of you are tracking that last night, Thursday, the 9th of September, we responded to a reported active shooter scenario in our Nasik facility. I just want to bring you up to speed on where we're at, what happened last night, and kind of close the door on the event and talk about how we're going to move forward. Last night, shortly after 9 o'clock, two individuals reported to the Security Forces Watch Desk inside the Nasik facility that they had heard a shot fired inside the facility. That in turn drove the Security Forces member to call our Base Defense Operation Center and let them know about a potential active shooter situation. Many of you have seen through your ad hoc messages, telephone calls, or email that the base immediately went into a lockdown.  These are all the things that we have practiced. This is why we urge you to make sure you're updating your information in the ad hoc application with a cell phone number if you want text message, with your current email address or a current phone number, so that we can get ahold of you in times like this. That played out perfectly. Our Security Forces immediately responded to the area, Fire responded as well and set up Incident Command, and we began immediately sweeping the Nasik complex to see if we could identify a potential shooter. The team did an awesome job working down the hallways, the public spaces, the folks inside the building did exactly what they were supposed to do. They barricaded themselves in, turned the lights off, closed the windows, did all the things that we train. There's a reason we practice active shooter exercises, and it's for occasions like this, because your protection is our number one concern. And so folks did the right thing. They blocked themselves in, they held down the fort and waited for our Security Forces teammates to sweep through the facility and get to the all-clear message and get folks out of that facility into a safe zone. Fortunately, after both the primary sweep and the secondary sweep, nothing was found. And some folks may look at that and say, wow, that was a lot to do about nothing. I will tell you, it was not nothing to the folks that were involved in that event. To the two individuals that thought they heard a shot fired and did the right thing and reported it to Security Forces. To our first responders that immediately reported to the scene to begin protecting and defending those folks that are in that facility and around our community. To our community partners that answered the call to action, that reached out to our Security Forces that showed up at the Hope Hotel parking lot as a pre-staging area to figure out how can they support us in this time of need. To the FBI, Office of Special Investigations, all those folks, thank you. To our local municipalities, law enforcement agencies, thank you for being there for us. You know we will be there for you. For the folks that went through this ordeal inside NACIC, thanks for doing the right thing. Thanks for remembering what you're supposed to do in an active shooter scenario. You rocked it. And to our responders that did the sweep, that secured the area, to our Public Affairs team that made sure we were communicating with the local media to get the message out to the community and to all of you in the community that were concerned, expressed your concern, but again did the right thing by staying away so that we could secure the area and protect our teammates. Thank you. We're still working through the investigation piece because obviously that was not a gunshot that those individuals heard. We're trying to sort through what that may have been. But again, through both the primary and secondary sweep, we identified the fact that there was no shots fired, the area was secure, there was no perpetrator, and we moved on to the all clear. Now that we're in that all clear phase, folks are kind of calming down, going back, looking at the scenario through a fresh set of eyes, taking lessons learned because there are lessons learned from every event that we do, we will incorporate those in the future exercises, and we will continue to practice active shooter scenarios because you never know when that sound that you think you heard is the exact sound that you thought you heard. So if you hear something, say something, be active, get involved, do the right thing, understand your training, and know that we appreciate you, we care about you, we are here for you. And again, special thanks to all those folks that were involved in the incident last night in making sure as you're in the heat of the moment you are protecting the team, saving the mission, and getting after it. I truly appreciate all that you're doing for the fight.


SCP-840 is a type of amoeba that thrives in dark, damp environments, which given the correct circumstances, will form a unique symbiotic relationship, fusing together by secreting an extremely viscous mucus. Although SCP-840 has a prolific growth and reproduction rate, colonies are capable of existing unnoticed for years. Scents and drainage systems are the preferred habitat of SCP-840. To date, there has only been one observed instance of SCP-840 colonizing a natural environment. See Incident Report 1840A1. Using the exterior of the pipe as an exoskeleton, SCP-840 will, over time, convert these systems into an extended digestive system, capable of extracting nutrients and moisture from passing biological matter.


I'm Peter. I'm going to be your host today. And for those just joining us, I'll just let you know about the day. So we're going to start with a movie with David. Afterwards, we'll have a 10 minute break. And then we're going to have breakout rooms where you can share anything that came up for you during the movie. And then we'll have a 45 minute break. And then we're going to have the closing session with me. Also, today is a bit special because with this particular movie, there's going to be a lot of text on the screen. And so to make things easy, we have both an English version of the movie playing and a Spanish version. And you'll see the Spanish version is a user here called Policula Español. So for our Spanish friends, you can pin this user any time now called Policula Español. And that way, if you keep that pinned during the movie, you'll see David and the movie and see the Spanish subtitles. For our English friends, you don't have to do anything different than usual. Okay, so with that, I'm going to pass it over to you now, David. Thanks, Pete. You know, we're going deeper when we have to have added instructions for our movie. So it's pretty high tech. We used to do this when we would show movies in Portuguese, too. So we were dealing with English and Spanish and Portuguese. So we're prepared for this audio visual spectacular presentation, all for the healing of our mind. So yeah, we have a beautiful movie today. And the name of the movie is called Violet. And the writer of the movie and the director of the movie is Justine Bateman. Some of you might have recognized her from many years ago. When I was in university, there was a show on TV called Family Ties with Michael J. Fox. And Justine Bateman played his sister, his teenage sister. And now she's she's not only a writer, a producer, an actress, but now a director. This is her first film she's directing. And I would have to say that you could really feel her heart. The purpose of making this movie was for helping people with their mental health. And I think it's nice. You know, a lot of times we see movies and movies are made with the purpose of entertainment. But I think for those of us that are on the spiritual journey, we do enjoy movies that are psychological. We do enjoy movies that help us get into the thinking of the character as well as what seems to be the appearance of the character and the environment. As Pete was mentioning, there's text that comes up on the screen. This is fantastic because these are kind of like the white text that appears kind of in bold letters during the movie is going to be like her, her main violets unconscious desires. But I would say, from a spiritual perspective, these white letters are the little nudges from her intuition from the spirit. These are the little prompts that want to come through but are not acted on, but are there with her scene by scene, as she goes through her life. So you can see the spirit is wanting to break through. The spirit is, is that nudge that you have inside that really is knows your own best interest in every single setting and every single relationship. Every single situation. There are these inner prompts that want to come through. Now, we all know that having gone through this earth experience, we call we're on a seeming journey from between birth and death, that we at times have very much critical thinking, self critical thinking, thoughts of unworthiness, doubt thoughts, we call them sometimes, you know, that, that negative dark voice in your mind. And I would say that people have different experiences with it. Some people come to this world, they seem to have very loving parents that nurture them and prepare them to handle whatever the world will seem to throw to them. And others have very dark experiences in childhood, and during their teen years and early adulthood, where they have a lot of reflections and witnesses of guilt and shame of blame of criticism, and all kinds of judgments. And for those of us who have come through that route, we know how, how difficult it can seem to be when you have a self critical voice that's just doubting you. It's doubting you all the time. It certainly seems to generate stress. It generates anxiety. It generates fear and guilt. And for those of us on the spiritual journey, we know that that's our whole purpose is to transcend that voice of the ego and learn to tune in to the voice of the spirit, the voice of intuition. And in the course of miracles, we could say it's Jesus or the Holy Spirit. And Jesus is an example for us of one who heard only one voice. He told us in the Bible, he says, be of good cheer whenever Jesus starts off with be of good cheer. There's something good coming. And be of good cheer. I have overcome the world. Meaning I have overcome the voice that made the world. I have overcome the ego. I have overcome Satan. I've overcome the darkness. And I now know that light is all that there is and that our nature is love. And the kingdom of heaven is real. In fact, it's so real that nothing real can be threatened and nothing unreal exists. So this beautiful, intuitive voice is teaching us and reminding us all the time that who we really are is light, is pure spirit. I like it when Jesus says God is as incapable of creating the perishable as the ego is incapable of creating the eternal. The ego has no idea what eternity is. And yet its world of separation is projected world of linear time and separation is the big trick to keep us from knowing who we are as pure spiritual being, a being of light. So in this movie, we will have an opportunity to get a lot, a pretty good view of a lot of messages that are going on with each scene. And our main character is Violet. She's a young woman living in Los Angeles, living and working in Hollywood. She works for a company that makes films, makes video games. She has interactions with Hollywood executives, with all manner of people, writers, producers, directors, because she's in the filmmaking business of Hollywood. And this morning when I was praying, Jesus was just telling me, he said, now you meet every Saturday to watch a movie. And now you're watching a movie about a movie maker in a town where movies are made. And you're going to get more of the overall picture of all the thoughts and emotions that go on in terms of this perceptual world of time and space. But in the end, he said, he just was laughing and saying, you know, all I really want you to see is that this world is a movie. And I want you to learn not to take this movie serious. That's all. It's very, very simple. I mean, in the professional moviemaking business, there's actors and actresses. There's writers. There's producers. There's directors. There's those behind the scenes that handle the grip. There are makeup and hairdressers. There's casting directors. There's all kinds of things that go on into the making of the movie. And Jesus says, but let's keep it real simple. Your mind believing in the ego is the movie maker. You know, you oftentimes complain about the images, but you don't really want to acknowledge that that your mind is being used as an image maker. And so it's generating this. Like he says, the secret of salvation is you're doing this to yourself. And if you could realize this, you would, you would stop. You would stop immediately. And that's important because if we forget the power of our mind, if we forget the part that we play in generating this world, albeit it is from an unconscious mind of guilt. It's from false belief. But when we forget that aspect of it, then it's a temptation to perceive ourselves as a person in the world and victimized by circumstances that are exterior to our personhood. You know, that's the that's the big trick of this world. We we've tricked ourselves into believing that the Holy Christ can be mistreated. And that's a pretty big trick.  And then you've got to have a whole world that seems to impact that body as if the world is external to your mind. So what I like about this movie today is we're going to really get a good experience, a pretty direct experience of Violet's person, her her career, her relationships, her family. And we're also mainly going to get a really good experience of her mind. Because her prompts and her repressed desires are going to spring onto the screen as white letters. So in any situation, we can see what is it her intuition is trying to tell her in this situation. Also, we have this very critical and negative voice in this movie. Justin Thoreau is his voice and his voice is always making commentary to her throughout the whole movie. So this critical ego voice is just constantly going on and on. It doesn't have anything good to say. It's it's always negative. It's always critical. It's always putting her down. And so that's good that we have that right out front. We don't have to guess by what we're perceiving, what she may be thinking. We can hear this voice, this dark voice throughout the movie. So we have the intuition and the repressed intuitive thoughts and big white letters. We have Justin Thoreau. He's the actor who's speaking these very dark critical thoughts that she has, all of her unworthiness, all of her self criticism. And then we'll see that she has friends and family that also act out the thoughts. Like you, we all come to see that our thoughts are very much acted out in the perceptual world. So we could say some of our thoughts, they seem to turn into mighty companions. There are mighty companion thoughts. They're, they're adorable. They just listen patiently when we talk. They hold us when we need to be held. They comfort us when we need to be comforted. And they're delightful. We love our mighty companion thoughts. And sure enough, in Violet, there's, there's going to be some mighty companions showing up for Violet. And, and thank God for that. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for the symbols that show us that we're moving toward the light. We're waking up to the light of heaven. And then we also have characters that act out our, our judgmental thoughts. And they basically show us what we believe. If we're not completely aware that we're thinking these thoughts, these characters show up to show us for sure that we are believing in darkness. And we have believed in these negative thoughts. They're hard to miss.  And those are great opportunities for forgiveness. So Violet will have her share. So the themes that you voted on this week that are helping us, taking us into this amazing healing experience, the number one theme that you voted on is called discernment, discernment, the ego voice versus the Holy Spirit's voice. And as I've traveled around the world for these last 35 years and gone to all these 44 countries, that's probably one of the, the five most asked questions that I am asked, I've been asked over the years, how do you discern between the ego's voice and the Holy Spirit's voice? It's kind of like saying, how do you, how do you discern between the wrong mind and the right mind, the mind that's defending against the light and the mind that is aligned with the light? So this movie is an amazing movie to help us get that discernment sharper and clearer than ever. Some of you who, who are part of our movie watchers guide to enlightenment or MWGE.org, you know that occasionally we have movies in there that are multimedia in the sense that they're, they're very audiovisual experiences where you can, you can hear the thoughts of some of the characters. Probably Guy Ritchie's movie Revolver is one of the most famous ones we have in our collection because not only do you hear the, all the dark thoughts and the fear thoughts acted out in the characters, but you can hear inside of Jake Green who's the main character. You can hear inside his mind. You can hear all his ego thoughts and you can hear his Holy Spirit guidance thoughts. So that's what makes Revolver such an amazing self-realization movie is because the main character, you can hear the thoughts and it helps you discern better between the ego's voice and the Holy Spirit's voice. It's really great when we have a movie like that. Another one that's a little more recent we had was called Chaos Walking in which the main character, you could hear his thoughts all the way through the movie. In fact in that movie Chaos Walking you could hear the thoughts of all the men and basically the women could hear the thoughts of all the men. That can really speed up spiritual awakening if you hear the thoughts of all the men and in this, in that sense it was a couple main characters, a woman and a man and there was lots of healing that came because you could hear the thoughts. You weren't so tricked and fooled by the appearances. You could actually hear the thoughts and Jesus is telling us that healing, all healing is and all health is inner peace. So health doesn't have anything to do with the appearances. It has everything to do with the inner peace and we could say that what seems to be the projected world really doesn't have any meaning in and of itself. It is just a projection where the meaning is either put on the world by the ego or the meaning is put on the world by the Holy Spirit. And it's very simple for the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit sees the world as as false and as a teaching device for bringing your mind home. It's very simple. But the ego projects all kinds of expectations, all kinds of grievances, all kinds of blame onto that world and that's why we have to let go of the ego if we're going to be consistently happy because all we're going to see is reflections of ego judgments as long as we still value the ego. As long as we still listen to its voice, we will still see the evidence, false evidence appearing real, the acronym fear, false evidence appearing real from listening to the voice of fear. Okay, our second poll theme was facing unworthiness and moving through critical self-talk. That was only one vote behind. So these are the top two, discernment between ego's voice and Holy Spirit's voice and facing unworthiness and moving through critical self-talk. That second theme, that really summarizes the whole spiritual journey. If you can transcend the self-critical talk by just seeing the impossibility of it, it doesn't mean the ego will necessarily just stop on a dime, but it means that your mind will start having a good laugh like, oh yeah, okay. Oh, you're at it again. Oh my, you've got a real rampage going on today, but there's a lightness with it. There's not a sense of being identified with it. You're not going to conclude anything about your identity based on this stream of critical thoughts. Why would you conclude anything about your holy identity based on these strange thoughts that are like passing through like trains moving through the night? Okay, the third theme is recognizing the spirit speaking through my brothers. And I think as we keep practicing forgiveness and the clearer we get in our mind, it becomes very easy to hear the Holy Spirit speaking through my brothers and my sisters. Basically, when I'm not putting judgments on them and I'm not determining how they should be or determining their identity based on time and space, then amazingly, they just start speaking softly to you. They start singing to you. They are adorable. Everything, people, animals, trees, butterflies, everything becomes really adorable once we do not put any meaning on it. We start to see everything is really kind of cute when we don't judge it. It's like, oh my gosh, that's just so cute.  And that was the first site that I saw this morning from the kitchen and it was just this brilliant red bird, like in all of its majesty, shining its bright red right in the sunshine for everyone to see. Definitely for me. It was really great. The next one is letting go of the fear of consequence. That's one way to describe the ego is the ego is always chirping on about past regrets, past mistakes, what went wrong in the past, and then it's projecting it into fear of consequences in the future. What could happen? And basically the end game of all of this projecting fear onto the future is, we'll see it in this movie.   That's like its end game. That's the best it can throw to scare you. Once you can laugh at that one, then the ego's like, there's nothing else to scare this mind with, because that's going to come in this movie toward the end where the ego will try to scare Violet.  It's going to try to really pull out its most scary thought on top of everything else. It's always aiming towards the end game of loneliness, isolation, and death. And then the last theme we have today is called giving up people pleasing. I think it helps to remember always that the ego peopled this world. God didn't create this world because nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists. So this world of projections is just that. It's just the projection of doubt thoughts. And just as the ego peopled the world with fear and anger, hatred, doubt, the Holy Spirit simply sees it's not true. And once you come into that gentle gaze, gentle perspective of the Holy Spirit, then your light can just shine. Then it's used to smile, to laugh. It's used to hug. It's just so much an instrument of light when you give it over to the Holy Spirit because it's always so gentle and so soft with the Holy Spirit. So those are our main themes. And to give you a little bit of background on the on the movie, so you'll be very tuned in and ready. As I said, it can be quite busy when you have these white words of inner prompts, like repressed desires coming onto the screen. You've got this male voice of criticism coming up for her and you have the characters speaking to one another. It kind of sets up a visual dissonance where you have an auditory stream of you can hear the ego's voice. You can see the characters and then you can see some of the prompts, the unconscious repressed prompts that are wanting to come up and wanting to come out for her, but they're not coming out. They're just there because the ego's voice in this movie is so predominant for her. That's why she feels afraid. That's why she feels anxious. That's why she feels not sure of herself. She feels like she's on shaky ground because of this. But for us, we get to see the whole range of things going on in consciousness. And I think that's helpful because many of us can relate to that where we're starting to react and respond as we think we should respond instead of as we actually feel. That's what this world is. It's a world of acting. And I did look up acting in the dictionary one time. I looked up act and it said to impersonate. And I thought, oh, that's it. We oftentimes play a part or a role based on what we believe others want to see or want to hear or we base it on what we believe we should do. And Henry David Thoreau, the mystic that lived up in New England, he said one time, most men live lives of quiet desperation. I think this quiet desperation is coming in is because there's an act going on. And we're not really completely convinced by the act. We feel like we have to put on a mask with certain people, with certain situations we have to act appropriate. And this unconscious voice is basically telling us in every situation how to dress, how to speak, what to say, what to do. And it's no wonder we feel confused when there's this unconscious mind that's feeding us the lines. So we may think some very loving and positive thoughts, but the words that can come out of our mouths can seem more like a reaction. And the reaction is more, it's just based on the past. We have a solid belief in the past. And then these thoughts and actions flow from that. It doesn't have to be that way. Of course, that's very confusing. And it can be much more simple than that when we start to tune into the inner voice and we start to feel confident. We start to feel a sense of integrity in our mind where everything we think and say and do and feel and speak becomes congruent. It all starts to line up when we start to follow Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Everything lines up. So we feel connected. We feel whole. We feel like we're not playing a part. When somebody looks at us and they say, well, you really should do this, we have something inside of us that's just kind of smiling because we're not into the shoulds and not tos anymore. We're like smiling on the inside going, okay, you think I should do this. Oh, very interesting. That's very interesting. It's not a motivating factor anymore because we're motivated by the spirit. We're motivated by joy. We're motivated by happiness and love. We're not motivated by that fear. And I think you'll see in this movie that that's the direction slowly that the main character Violet is moving in that direction. I like that she works in the movie industry because everything in this world is a movie and really we have to change our thinking. We have to change the tune of our thinking in order to come into alignment with the spirit. And in order to do that, we do have to get in touch with our belief system. And everyone knows from studying the Course that that the ego is mostly unconscious. So there's this unconscious belief system that Jesus says is the dream you dream in secret. And then the world that we perceive through the five senses is the dream that was given away as if it's happening to us. So every day when we say, oh, what's happening today or we check the news, we're just basically checking on whatever the unconscious mind has projected. And we call it news but it's really old. It's just an old script that keeps playing out and playing out. And we only are disturbed by it when we give it reality. When we let go of believing that this script has meaning, then suddenly we are intuitively guided and everything works out beautifully. Some of you know that I've talked about there seems to be everything in time and space is simultaneous. But the script that you perceive that you're watching is just one tiny aspect of many scripts will say they're going on simultaneously. And you only focus on one particular script because of belief. This belief will never conflict in terms of an outcome in the world. Whatever the outcome of whatever you're seeing, proceeding with the five senses is not where the conflict is. But it's in the unconscious mind where you have different beliefs that are different self-identities, different roles, different conflictual thoughts that are clashing in the mind. And then you just see a projected world that's based on that conflict. When you allow the conflict to be healed in your mind by lining up with spirit, then you realize that there is no conflict in yourself or the world and you're healed. But as long as you believe in the conflict, as long as you believe it's possible to be separate things, then you will see a conflictual world. So this movie is going to go a long way for us in helping us see this. Now at the very beginning of the movie, there's going to be some pretty grotesque themes of things dying. It's almost like there's going to be a montage of a brief montage of things that seem to be dying, decaying, whether it's animals or things in the world.  That's just symbolic of the unconscious mind. So I like the way that Justine Bateman is bringing all this into the film. She's going to show us little snippets of reflections of the unconscious mind, which is just death, disease, and decay. She's going to show us the everyday world and all the interactions that go on with this 32-year-old filmmaker named Violet. And she's also going to bring in symbols of awakening. One of the symbols that's going to be, it's very bright. It's like moving very swiftly through a very tall wheat field. Some of you might have seen the movie August Rush, where little August is playing in the wheat field and he's swaying his hands and all the wheat in the grass is moving to August's hands, where some of you might have seen our classic As It Is in Heaven, the beautiful Swedish film, the Kai Pollock put together. And then there's a beautiful scene where at the beginning of the movie, the child seems to be beat up by the bullies in this wheat field, this field of tall grain. And then in the end, he lifts the child up and it's like the resurrection, like he's transcending it. In this movie, we get to see some of these flashes of moving through a wheat field very quickly. And to me, I think it's just a symbol of the freedom of the mind when you can move past the wheat and the tares and you can move swiftly to the light. These are very bright scenes. Also, we're going to see scenes from Violet's childhood. When Violet was a little girl, she was spunky and she was happy.  And she had her moments of freedom and happiness that were very strong when she was a child. And we're going to see some scenes where we'll see those images projected onto the wall during the movie. Just this happy young Violet there riding her bicycle in the sunshine. Very, very happy, very, very free. Also, there's a lot of symbology in this movie.   I noticed watching the movie this time, there's her little Holy Spirit bracelet. Even as a little girl, she's got it when she's riding her bike. You'll see this little bracelet on her arm.  So the Holy Spirit is with her her whole life. And I love how Justine has put all these symbols into the movie. She's really packing it full of all these symbols so that we can come to a greater discernment. I think also, as we go through the movie, you're going to start to see that that she's really having to develop her own faith. And she's really having to come to a change of mind and a change of heart about the nature of the world. In the movie, there's a friend of hers. I think the woman who plays her best friend, that she has is the name of Lila, L-I-L-A. And some of you know from Eastern teachings, Lila is the theater of this world. It's like a play. So she's the character that will turn into one of the main mighty companions that will reflect, oh no, you don't have to listen to that committee that's meeting in your mind, that critical committee. And you actually can just learn to see that it's a lie. It's false. And Lila is one of the first ones in the movie to really reflect back to Violet that you don't have to listen to that committee. Because I think Violet, it feels like that's the only voice that she's known. It's so predominant in her mind that she needs witnesses. So she doesn't have like spiritual teachers in this movie. It's just slowly drawing forth witnesses based on her change of mind, her change of consciousness. And I think that's the way it goes for most everyone. Most everyone, it's a slowly evolving discernment of getting more and more connected to the light, more and more in alignment with the spirit, and feeling more relaxed and confident based on that alignment. It's not always based on some avatar or some person or guru in your life. It's actually this slowly evolving awareness of feeling better about yourself and more connected and more congruent, more holistic in your mindset. So I hope you enjoy this movie. I think I feel it's a treat when we have movies like this because we really get to really take in all aspects of the spiritual awakening. And mental health is our happiness. It's our peace. And we have to actually go through a progression as we train our minds to this alignment. And definitely we can see Violet is going through mind training. She's definitely going through mind training. And it's like we're right with her in this movie. So enjoy the movie. And I will pop in from time to time. And I think you're in for a great treat. This is one of the rare kind of movies that come along. Let us get into the character's mindset. And that is a precious thing indeed. Precious symbol. Okay.
