Hello everybody, welcome back to us Oteric Atlanta. Of course, my name is Bryce and I'm here with one of my new friends Emmy who I'm going to show you guys before we get into the subject at hand her awesome channel Holistic Genie with Emmy. So you guys she's new to YouTube, but she's not new to the world of spirituality. So go ahead and give her a subscribe. I will have all of Emmy's links Down in the description box below. This is any second time on the channel with me Our friend Stephanie from spiritual perspectives of our Great Awakening has been a little bit under The weather this week. I think a lot of us have which we're going to be talking about today about what's going on And so we wish her well, but I will put a link to that episode that we did previously with Stephanie in the Description box as well for you guys. How are you doing Emmy? How are you doing today? I'm doing good. I'm doing good definitely grateful that I'm aware of what's going on spiritually and scientifically with everything With the Ascension because otherwise, I think I would just be a heap of tears I've been dealing with insomnia, which is an old issue and I can talk a little bit about that when we start Getting into the energy updates and things But yeah, how are you? I'm the same as you and I'm glad that I do know I know what's going on astrologically as well and that's kind of what we're going to talk about today There's some other readers that I put information out to but it's super important and we were talking before we started filming I know I've said this many times on my channel and Me like Emmy my my job off of YouTube now YouTube has become my main job But before YouTube I'm the only female female authorized a strong a teacher in the state of Georgia And so I've I've spent many many years working because as when you get into these healing arts the first person you have to work on is yourself yourself and I think one of the biggest misconceptions that I see off camera and shawlas and also from people who are new is When you think of spirituality a lot of times people think they're just all the sudden going to feel Bliss and peaceful and it's going to be in your music just constantly playing in the background and butterflies and rainbows That's not till the very end like you you have to get you have to go through the dark night of the soul and a lot of times We even have it and if the courses that I teach I in the manual I have a section on the ego death and how painful that can be how Really gut-wrenching that shadow work can be and astrologically that's what we're walking into as a collective And I know I said I think I said it with Catherine We have three different karmas that we're working with all of us every single human being has three different karmas We're all working with and karma isn't all karma is is cause and effect. That's all it is. It's cause and effect It's your work. You have your own personal karma your work that you Individually have to go through in this life. You have the residual karma from possibly past lives And you have your ancestral karma. So what you've inherited through your DNA Which is goes along with the Ascension as well and you have your collective karma, which is the group which We're going to talk about too because we all we are collectively Riding a roller coaster right now with Mother Earth, which you guys have said heard me say with a law of one Earth is also ascending and this is the one time Apparently allegedly in the galactic history where living beings have been able to be on a planet as it ascends Normally we have living beings humans animals whatever have to get off the planet in order for the planet to then shut its skin And ascend but this is the one time where we're riding it with Mother Earth. So with that being said there's no precedent We're the And also Before we get into it, too, you guys have heard me say many times in the law one that They're very clear that a lot of us who are here right now We're picked to be here by source by God by creator because we were actually in higher densities And we came down back into a lower density to help push Earth forward So what that means is that all y'all our majority of y'all Have already ascended before many times And so if you can sell into that uncomfortableness and realize this is not your first rodeo Then I think they'll be a little bit more of a surrender to the craziness that is going to ensue the chaos That's going to ensue but with that. I'm gonna let you take it away. I mean, okay Yeah, I will support what you just said with the fascinating charts that Your viewers and Stephanie and spears had have emailed me inquiring about aspect pattern astrology I'm working on them all. Thank you guys so much for reaching out. Please be patient. I am extremely busy Extremely busy. I will get to everyone who has emailed me, but it might be, you know, a few a few weeks but what I've noticed thus far is that everyone has these really rare Aspect patterns and it's kind of like, hmm, this is a special group of people You know, and why wouldn't they be people who watch you and and Stephanie and other truthers, you know They're probably awake and aware and like you said, this isn't our first rodeo. I don't So so I just wanted to make that known Um, so yeah, let's get into the energies so I like to Along with astrology and the spirituality of things I like to study the scientific stuff and The solar activity in the month of April was really active We had so many flares So many CMEs and for people who don't know what that mean a CME is a coronal mass ejection. It's basically a burst of cosmic particles and electromagnetic radiation, you know, burped at at Earth and it comes in to our ionosphere and This light the spiritual community calls it light the scientific community calls it photons This light comes into our bodies and interacts with our electrical fields and our our bio electric parts of our body and it comes into our cells it Interacts with our DNA And when this stuff is going on like I'm going to use an analogy so if you say you have a Cup and you've got like maybe one or two inches of really soapy water in the bottom of the cup You want to bring the soap up and out? To the surface so You put the cup under some water and you let the water run into the cup and it displaces the soap Okay, that's kind of like what's going on with the light coming down It's it's entering our bodies entering ourselves and it's pushing The crud or the soap up and out Nobody's immune. Nobody's It's a forced detox. Yes, it's a forced detox and it works on a on a cellular level with your DNA, so it's just and And that's where you can get your ascension symptoms like nausea and dizziness and headaches and the ringing in the ears and The the tiredness the fatigue the body aches all of that integration of all of the light is what is causing these symptoms And I on that note, I will say to you guys why we've talked about this on my channel before Sickness is a necessary part of ascension in the East They talk about this all the time and in my yoga school the Alba Shala. They would get excited When you got a fever you got the yoga fever that means that your body was removing old patterns Right and so and that's one thing that the the controllers the bad guys have tried to kind of manipulate You know if we get sick, what do we do? We immediately try to like put chemicals in our body to stop it Versus just letting it run out. And so and that is something that I'm so glad you and I've been I've been super dizzy Like so like to the point where I'll have to like stop for a minute and like regain Kind of my my equilibrium. I have been extremely tired I've been having really interesting sleeps And so I get that but we just you don't try to fight it Don't try to just let it to do what it needs to do because it's creating a new pattern for you And that's what we want. That's what we want. Yeah, absolutely So a little bit on the scientific side There is an index called the KP index and it's basically a scale That they use to determine the amount of Geomagnetic activity for geomagnetic storms Last month the KP index reached Seven and it goes from zero to nine So, yeah, right right right there this one There I can't I'm pointing at my Is Yeah, cuz it goes from zero to nine the nine's down here in the purple guys if you can see that like my Computer abilities only go so far So if you go over to Over two pictures this one. Yeah, that is a really really severe geomagnetic storm and No, this isn't this isn't from April. This is just an example, but right right those columns are Are the different levels green is pretty much safe yellow is moderate and red is really high Wow Yeah, April Yeah, it it reached seven Level seven which I don't believe it reached that level in About a decade and you know, don't don't take my word for that I haven't looked it up yet, but it's been a it's been a minute since it's been that high and when that happens, you know, not only can it affect satellites and You know different pieces of equipment it can also affect people with it affects our bodies You know it can affect people with heart issues or psychological or neurological issues They actually put out warnings sometimes when the KP index is elevated for a number of days They'll say, you know beware. It's a heart health hazard right now. Oh, wow Not right now, but they'll put the the message out that that's what's going on So that's a little bit about the KP index and not only was the KP index pretty high last month But there was also several periods where the photon density or the plasma Was really high Now, I'm gonna give another analogy for for people to kind of understand what plasma is so plasma density I Want you guys to think about a liquid. I know light isn't a liquid, but I'm gonna compare it to liquids if you think about water and the Let's call it thickness of water or viscosity. It's pretty runny and then if you think about motor oil It's more viscous. It's thicker. Yeah. Well when the plasma Density is elevated. It's like the thickness of the light like normally It's between one and ten. I'm not gonna give the units of measurement because most people are gonna understand But it's usually between one and ten It was upwards of 75 to 100 last month and it's like We have motor oil light coming down. I mean it is just insane Yeah, really high and I know that no you can't and I know for me I get these really weird headaches, it's almost like My head is full of mud, but at the same time it feels like it's being compressed I don't even know how to it's it's a headache that is not like any other headache. It's just weird So there's there's that as well. So we have all of this light coming down and fill in our bodies this month is Going to be the purging of all of the Crud or the soap that's coming up and out of your cells Yeah, yeah, and we're also be we're also in an eclipse sandwich. Yeah We had a partial solar eclipse on the 30th and we have a total lunar eclipse and full moon and Scorpio on the 15th and 16th So And my Yeah, my my rising is Scorpio and My husband's and it's just like, okay brace yourselves So Yes, yeah, I'm gonna get to that as well So we've got this eclipse sandwich that we're in and eclipse energies do not just stay nice and neat on the day The eclipse happens. It's like You know Yeah months, you know eclipse season the energies are Are very intense very strong and they intensify Other astrological energies and planetary alignments as well and like what Bryce was saying mercury stations retrograde on the 10th and So we've got we've got this total lunar eclipse in Scorpio and Scorpio is all about getting to The root of things like way down deep deep diving shadow work that kind of stuff mercury retrograde Also brings up that kind of stuff for people and and I think that mercury retrograde gets a bad name because You know it the planet is amazing. It has these gigantic magnetic spiraling storms that go off and You know, so it it interferes with communication it interferes with electronics with mechanical things So, you know, your car can break down your phone can mess up I used to work at a chemical plant and this is how I found out what mercury retrograde was because every time Mercury would go retrograde. We would have three weeks of non-stop issues Oh, I believe it our computers are our machines are pumps like everything would just go haywire And I started noticing this pattern and so I looked it up I'm like what is going on, you know in the environment or whatever and that's when I discovered Mercury retrograde and that's kind of when I started Diving into a little bit more of a strategy. Yeah, so Interesting for those watching I get what you're saying because mercury retrograde does get a bad rap And I will say with the technology just rules of thumb for people Don't buy a new phone or a new computer or a new car during mercury retrograde All right Just let whatever issues you're having with your old systems Just let them be for the time period once you're out of the shadow of the retrograde Then it's okay to go buy a new one But also don't get into new contracts and mercury retrograde don't but Old projects old stuff can come to completion, which is a lot of them pulling up You think about with relationships closure all that kind of stuff the the that chaotic chaotic inside that's like Starting to pull its its nasty head back up again, but it's it's uncomfortable what it's necessary. It's absolutely necessary Yes. Yes, so if you can approach this month With a mindset of embracing The stuff that's coming up because really these eclipses and the mercury retrograde is really just shining a gigantic light on what needs to be healed within you and It can be really uncomfortable because people are going to be triggered They're going to be freaking out old stuff is going to be coming up stuff that you thought you were over or that you've already dealt with It can resurface I'm gonna you're gonna have some really intense emotions to process through and So what I really encourage people to do is when that stuff happens just observe Just observe without attachment like don't attach to these really strong emotions and in fact When I started working with emotional regulation and healing myself emotionally I Had such a hard time when an uncomfortable feeling would come up I would do everything to escape it bypass that go around like I just I couldn't I had this really Illogical belief that if I allowed myself to feel these really intense feelings that I was gonna die You know, and it's just like no, that's not the case So if you have these really uncomfortable things coming up Try to lean into it like just hold it like a baby, you know, just love Everything that's coming up say, you know, thank you for this anxiety Please show me what it is that, you know, I need to heal or thank you for this anger You know, please please show me, you know, what I need to do to relieve this and then just be an observer of other people too You know hold space for them, you know, if someone lashes out at you Don't lash back even though it would be really hard not to just don't take it personally and don't take it personally don't take anything personally just really be an observer this month and Be very very gentle with yourself. Self-care is super super important So, you know, don't attach to your feelings lean in into them love them hold them like a baby and When you when you can do that and just allow yourself to sit and be uncomfortable this really beautiful thing happens It's like I imagine like a dandelion poof and you know, you blow on it and When you're able to hold these emotions and just lean into it and just allow it to flow Allow it to flow instead of stagnating it or blocking it or trying to escape it. Just allow it to flow It like there comes this point where this Like the dandelion poof it just Disappears and then the sense of relief that comes over you is just so profound. Yeah So, yeah, if you have Addictions or resentments or triggers or any kind of trauma that's coming up this month really try to Do the work the hard work and if you need help get some help. There's so many recovery programs out there for literally everything You know, you don't necessarily have to go see a professional You can educate yourself. You can read books. You can use meditation. You can get out in nature It's just gonna be a bit of a bumpy month like for me. I've had a lot of Guilt come up and I've had insomnia for the last week and So what I've been doing is using gratitude And I wake up in the middle of the night like last night I woke up at 1 o'clock and I couldn't go back to sleep until 4 30 and then I had to get up at 5 so it's like So what I'll do is when I'm laying there I'll I'll use gratitude like I'll just Feel where my body is touching the bed and you know, thank you God for this bed. Thank you God for my husband Thank you God for my animals. Thank you God for my house and then it just relieves that sense of Why am I awake right now? I'm gonna be so tired tomorrow and you know, just complaining and So if you use gratitude it kind of eases that a little bit So that's that's an example of Something that you could do and just just be aware and be gentle with yourself and with other people and We'll get through it. Nobody's immune like I said Okay to cry. Oh, yes Yeah crying and I will say like I've talked to people a lot about this concept of toxic positivity You know, I think that's another thing that's big in the spiritual world people don't understand if you are feeling Upset if you're feeling heartbroken if there's an emotion coming up in you It's an emotion that needs to be not projected Don't project it on to other people because that's another form of escapism but acknowledged And sometimes we have to go sit in the corner and cry In order to actually feel that Gross uncomfortable fee. It doesn't Pain isn't comfortable at all and this is something again I tell in my courses because with the yoga schools people in the West have this very Weird perception of yoga where they think it's about relaxation and comfort and if you go to India, it's the exact opposite We you're put into Physical postures that hurt and it's it's supposed to trigger you it's not because you're a gymnast They do it better as my teacher says no one's paying you to do it. You know, this is a it's to trigger you It's to trigger these help things in your body to start coming up. So then you can deal with it And then once you left it once you've allowed the the you know And sometimes as I tell my students to and I my trauma therapist told this to me as well I agree. We don't have to know exactly what happened to cause that emotion The important thing we do is deal with the emotion because that's what the attachment is is the feeling that you're feeling and why Why keep why am I why am I feeling this way? Keep pulling back those layers and and it's it's so uncomfortable and There might be a couple days where your eyes are puffy and swollen. Just put some ice on them. It's fine, you know But it's it's your once you start to actually I tell my students to lean into it a lot as well I use that that term a lot lean into it. The more you do that the more liberated you become Yes Yes, I was I was doing a lot of hip openers and my yoga practice and the other day I Got done with my routine and I was in puppy pose and all of a sudden This emotion welled up and I just started falling I was all and I made this big puddle of tears and snot on my yoga mat And I had the hardest time wiping it up because it's I bought this really expensive like foam yoga mat and Anyway, so now I have this like memory of this spot on my yoga mat where I had this huge emotional release I'm doing hip openers and I tell you what hip openers Well, I don't even know why I was crying but something Broke loose and came out and I just allowed it. I'm glad that nobody was home I never practice in front of anybody I'm telling you right now. I I practice by myself in the kitchen I'm not really supposed to practice in front of people anyway because there's supposed to be a boundary between you and your students But yeah, I might I'll tell you I'll roll off subject But my mat I always use man do because that's what I recommend But I've had mine, you know, they're lifetime guarantee And I only wash my mat like once a year usually after I get back from India It's like one of those iron skillets. You never wash. Yeah, it smells so bad And it's so grimy, but it's my grime. And so like that's another reason why only I practice by myself So because it's it's um, but yeah, it's very yeah the body the hips are hips are big because they're also attached to the lower back As well, that's kind of one big energy cycle and you'll notice like as a teacher like if you guys are practicing yoga anytime There's a twist that's happening, especially if it's seated or in like uttita, Trikonasana B. You'll watch people Accidentally twist into their knee and not their hip and their back because they the subconscious mind doesn't want to go into that Yucky area and so it pushes it into the knee, which is when people end up with knee issues You know and in the traditional yoga we say injuries are your teachers So when you have that issue happen, that's your body saying hey You've been using your knee and not your actual hip You need to pay attention to that because it's all around that mulladara too and that mullabunda those that root work of like I am here for a reason which a lot of us I think I was telling Stephanie if you keep pulling back the layers most Issues that people have that are uncomfortable really can be boiled down to you not feeling like you're enough Yes, yes, and you know, I think one of the hardest things about being a woman is That you're expected to work as if you don't have a home or a family or animals or children to take care of And you're supposed to take care of your home and family and children and animals like you don't work So no win situation Oh Yeah, it's it's yeah, yeah, and I feel it. Well, I don't have kids. I just have a dog, but You know, I yeah, absolutely Absolutely for sure, and I think I think there's gonna be a rebalance of the divine feminine coming into the the Jamie Slay called it earth 2.0. I like that earth 2.0. You know, yeah, we balance Yeah, so yeah hips are big ones guys and back then to I know somebody asked me on my channel the other day About back bending and all I'm gonna say to you guys make sure you find someone to help you with this because the body will Dave agree my original teacher called of the artful Dodger When you're your subconscious mind knows where it's filed everything in your body Your subconscious mind knows that and so when you start to go dig into those areas of the subconscious mind goes Oh, we don't want to touch this and then takes your body and shifts it out of alignment to artfully Dodge The the real potent stuff and so for a lot of us we do have these blind spots We're working through that and so having a teacher there to correct the blind spots and actually adjust you into it is Very beneficial very beneficial for those of you living in states that still believe in the flu Do your best to find someone But otherwise it's very beneficial to have someone actually move you Yeah Yes, I I've only had Assisted yoga a couple of times and I absolutely loved it. I really did I wish that there was I Mean there might be more stuff in my area. I just haven't looked at it, but I'm I love the routine that I do I'm kind of Attached to it. I really miss it if I don't well, that's the important thing So that's the one thing where well not the one thing. There are many things that contend for yoga gets completely wrong You need to have a set routine The old traditional systems of yoga like an awesome We have six different series that we don't deviate deviate from and that's because these postures carry an alchemic response And if you only do the posture like once a week or once in a while, it's not doing anything There's potency the more your body opens into the posture And so like I tell my students who come in to start like the primary series of a strong yoga where you start It takes about five years to really work through Before you then are start starting the second series and that gives the body that that time To really settle in the mind more and more so the mind because the mind controls the body to settle into These shapes and the alchemic response happening if you're just doing it once you're just skimming the surface and And so and you'll see that very it's very common when someone starts a practice They'll have a favorite posture and then a year later They usually hate that posture and a posture they hate they love now because the body's shifting, right? And the mind is shifting at some different pathways are starting to open and be created in the body and again with those those pathways It's like a bulldozer. It's it's but there's gonna be sensation. There's gonna be feelings and Stuff you have to kind of work through in order to continue to open those pathways Yeah, definitely Definitely Yeah, so just Everybody be so so so so so gentle on yourself. It's not a race Shadow work is not a race, you know, whatever is coming up and presenting itself to you right now or this month Just focus on that. I know when I started healing About five years ago. I wanted it all done right now. I was really impatient and That impatience kind of Prevented me or almost blocked me from moving forward, you know, it's like here I was trying to hurry up and get this done and it just doesn't work that way So, you know, whatever is presenting itself to you This month just focus on that You'll be done when you're dead basically it's constantly you're constantly and the universe does have a wonderful way when you think that you've Mastered something and you kind of get that little ego like oh, I've gone through that. Oh, then the universe comes in and goes Oh, really? Oh really my friend and like pulls the carpet out from under you So you always have to remain that remain humble in the sense that you are a human being and part of the being a human being is experiencing being a human being and all the You know and yoga we talk about a lot with my students to talk about the concept of opposing forces and In the physical practice the awesome a practice of yoga We see a lot about opposing forces where one side of the body is Creating strength while the other side of the body is opening and then it flips itself And so there's this opposing force that's happening Well, this represents this is the micro of the macro you as a human being are yourself an opposing force You are an immortal soul Your soul is never gonna die. It's eternal Living in a Shakti an expression of the soul the body that has limitations and has more Mortality to it. And so that in itself creates that friction of opposing forces But the beautiful thing about that is it's designed that way by God for you to learn yourself You have to be in these bodies that will eventually one day perish In order for us then to understand that we will never perish just because the body does You know and if the Shakti if the body is the Shakti of the soul is the expression That's why you ever watch people talk about any type of past life regressions. They recognize people by their eyes And they're hit the therapy of who they were because the soul is always going to express itself the same in Each body which is that eternal eternal, but speaking of I will say this With the light bodies that we call it that are coming in the light bodies to the activation I've noticed for me now. I'm 39. I'll be 40 in February of 2023 and The again the type of yoga that I teach in practice is a very very physically challenging a lot of leg behind the head a Lot of catching the ankle a lot of sweat Broken my sacrum my wrist. I mean there's been a lot of bruising In this traditional form of yoga Now I coming into my mid-30s. I Started to feel the effects that maybe an athlete would feel Where I was developed where I was having to slow down a little bit in some of it I had a friend who is a good bit older than me. I'm not that much older with me But she was telling me she may like 10 years older than me. She was like, oh Bryce You're getting to that point Where you're not gonna be able to really do some of these postures you did when you were younger You're gonna start to get have to get prepared for giving postures back basically And so I was I was getting ready for that like that's where my mind was kind of going which was fine I'm not a post chaser. So that was fine as long as I have a practice. I'm and I can still teach. I'm good Well, then around lockdown. I was dealing with arthritis all this stuff that you can chuck to being you know, your age Or you're all the sudden my body started to reverse. I Everything started to reverse and these last couple of years. I Feel like my body is stronger now at 39 than it was at 29 Yesterday when I was practicing I was catching postures That I haven't caught in years no problem And then I heard somebody else say that that's that that's a side effect of that's another side effect of What's happening is your body is kind of regenerating itself. Have you found that too, Emmy? I have I Think that latent parts of our DNA are being activated by all of the site like for example my hair I've always had a little bit of a natural wave But the last two years my hair has turned curly like I'll get in the shower. I'll get out I'll scrunch my hair let it air dry and it is curly like I'll put in a couple of curls with a Curling rod, you know before I come on camera, but literally like two or three. That's it so and and I've noticed that my My skin is looking younger. I'm stronger like I can do Regular push-ups. I've never been able to do regular push-ups It was either, you know up against the wall or you know on something meeting on something always always needed a little bit of help So yeah, I have noticed that too and I was joking around with my husband And I'm like, I feel like I look younger now that I did five years ago. He's like you do I'm like, that's how I'm feeling too. I feel that same way too. No, I still like I use anti You know, I have my little aging stuff I do and stuff, but I was doing I was like, oh my god these I was starting to see like the crow's feet now They're starting to go away again. It's almost like and I you know, I've always been thin. I'm bought to have always been thin but Well, I was in Florida like a few weeks ago. I put my bathing suit on and I was like My stomach's flatter now Then it was when I was 27 like what the hell is happening like what is and it's not like my my Routine has changed. I've been active for years now, you know, it's it's um, but it's like that my body is like reversing in age, but we know that Allegedly when we go into earth 2.0, we're possibly going to be living 400 years Yeah, yeah We're just whippersnappers Yeah, yeah, and so and that's like but they say that even in the Bible now, we know a lot of people that are very fundamentalist bless their hearts Think we're at the apocalypse. We're not the apocalypse guys apocalypse was the fall of Atlantis And then we had the thousand years of peace the golden age with tartaria Which is why I'm telling people be careful with past life readings because most of our past our recent past was not what we think It was it was a golden age. There was no Then the devil was released again in the late 1700s And that's when we had this takeover of the controllers the powers that be and that's when life got shortened again But if you look in the Bible, it does talk about the activation of what we call life body Which is the I believe the what we were talking about what's happening at this point and it's it's um You know, I I've heard of people that have grown a couple of inches I've been told that It and who knows but my first med bed treatment that I could be like five nine When I get out which makes sense because my dad's family is like gigantic You know and so we're seeing this this like Almost like bodies are starting to kind of like wobble back into the original templates of of where the soul wants to be to be in alignment and And but that's gonna take time guys.  You got to work for and I heard another I don't know if you've heard this I mean, I've heard another solider say that with like the idea of the med beds You can't even use the med beds unless you're at a certain frequency Yeah, like it like it just won't work won't work. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, we've got a we've got to clear ourselves out and everybody has trauma Even if even if you've had like the the perfect life and nothing ever bad happened to you your trauma is that you don't have trauma We're all we're all social beings. We all want to be like everybody else, you know, and if you're different in any way It's a bit of a trauma. Yeah, you know, so and you can be carrying over stuff from a past existence But again, I said this with Catherine Edwards yesterday It doesn't matter what actually happened What what matters is your sensation from that event and you dealing with it now Because you aren't the person of the past you are now in this body and so you have like I used a silly example yesterday But I have a fear of rats and I don't know where this fear came from. There's no logical explanation I've had this intense fear since I was a child. I used to have like nightmares at night about rats I don't know why I mean a group in a very nice home like there was no like infiltration like Never never made sense to me. So I I'm just assuming that it's probably a past life trauma that happened Doesn't matter what happened What mattered and I was telling Catherine when I was like 20 years ago I was in South Africa and a rat ran across the floor and it was concrete floor I passed out that's how bad my fear was and I hit the concrete floor and that point even 20 years ago when I was super young I was like I have to deal with this Because rats are everywhere. I've always lived in cities. Hello Rats are all over that. I mean I live behind a restaurant I think the only reason why I've never seen a rat here is because I'm a dog But I live literally behind a restaurant in the middle of Midtown Atlanta like their restaurants everywhere And so I actively started even at that young of an age. I Actively started to work on that fear. It didn't matter to me what happened to cause that fear What mattered was what I was doing it within this life is bright So I put myself in situations very controlled situations Like when I lived in London for a little bit if anybody lives in London You know, you go to the underground and you can look down Where the tube goes by and see rats and mice and rotas just running around and So I'd force myself To go and kind of watch that and allow myself to breathe and calm the nervous system down And as I was telling Catherine yesterday, it's not like I'm probably never gonna have a pet rat but I've actively I'm actively working on that fear To to breathe through it to incorporate it to release it right like that dandelion to release it for whatever Happened to cause that situation and probably if I had to guess I was probably tortured with rats, but It wasn't the rat's fault Right through that distrust that cut, you know all that stuff that that it triggers And so that's what I want people to understand too like past lives are interesting They're fascinating all that kind of stuff, but in some ways they don't matter because right now you're here in this life What matters is what you do now With those sensations Right, that's we're gonna have memories. That's another thing about these solar flat like they're caught I'm having a lot of memories like of Atlantis actually. I know it's Atlantis We're starting to our our Akashic records are starting to release fully into our cognitive Reality because it's stored in our DNA as well And so and so that the all that information will come But sometimes it doesn't matter sometimes it doesn't matter if you remember or not You just have to work with what you have because that's what's what you what's presented to you is what's important Yes, yes Yeah, I think it can be a distraction going into past lives because you know, we're all so curious like who was I what did I do? You know, but what's really important is to heal the stuff that you carry from your past life That's what's important knowing everything that you did exactly where you lived who you were with You know, that's that's all fun and everything but it's it's a bit of a distraction and in fact past life memories were The trigger to my awakening actually two and a half years ago um, I started having memories And they were so Perfound like it was it was a sensation felt, you know here And it was so intense and so strong. I could not deny it. Yeah, I could not deny it But at the time I was still You know very much religious religiously indoctrinated and so That's when the the wrestling began with the changes in my beliefs.  With past life memories like right what do you do with that? Yeah, and so it was it was quite mind-blowing and quite shocking and Painful and lonely because the people that I chose to talk to first about it were like not the right people You know, so I I really had to go through this um period of Pulling away from the people that I was friends with and finding New people, you know to to support and in love and grow with and it was Quite a process Quite a process for sure My grandmother who my one grandparent who's actually from george and my mom's from the coast of south carolina My dad's dad is from tennessee But my my dad's mom grew up in south george on a dairy farm Uh, they heard ancestors came up through new orleans allegedly or learning that history might be wrong too because of because of tartaria, but um, you know french descent, uh, and she She would hide thank god for her because I don't know where I would be without her She's recently passed away But she would hide books on reincarnation under the bed under her side of the bed from my grandfather Because he was a presbyterian And she went to church every sunday, but she would talk to me as even as a little kid I don't know if she if my cousins are watching let me know if she talked to y'all too But she definitely talked to me a lot She would pull me aside and talk to me about reincarnation And talk to me about all these things. Um, and she was very smart woman She was a therapist for years a pianist like she Very high level of education for that time period for women and she would read all these books on the way energy works And um, I I really I mean thank god for her because I don't know if I would have felt the freedom to go off to india If I hadn't have had her because you're right when you are I mean even my family I mean my in the south there's you know, you have your fundamentalist and then you have your Your other christians which are more I mean my family was into the folklore We told ghost stories all that kind of stuff the more of the Midnight in the garden of good and evil type of family southern family not the fundamentalist But still that those those type of uh subjects like reincarnation were taboo Because that's not what you are taught in the church Which I know you're doing are you doing a series with Stephanie about taboo topics in the bible? Yeah, we were we were going to record our introductory session yesterday But like you were saying she's feeling under the weather. So we postponed it But yeah, we're gonna it's going to be titled religion versus spirituality And we're going to be talking about all kinds of different taboo Topics and I am going to tie things together Biblically and Share some really cool Old books that I discovered about astrology and how they're tied together with Bible verses. It's really fascinating. Well, they talk about reincarnation actually a lot in the bible And people don't realize it. That's what they're talking about I mean even jesus says in one of the stories like Who did they say I am and his disciples answer back they say that you were the prophet isaiah Or Isaac one of them which lived hundreds of years before jesus. So what does that tell you? That they believe the reincarnation Right, that's what that tells you in job to the book of job I don't know the book or the verse off hand right now But he says, you know, I came naked in my mother's womb and I'll come naked And I'll return naked.  As well as people big babies come out like flicking all cameras like that was a trick You coming out the birth canal you see the light you walk into it boom all of a sudden you're out the birth canal But um, I was laughing because I was like actually Maybe I don't know But you know, it's what's interesting in my studies of tartaria They talk a lot about I know Stephanie I've talked about this how a lot of the christian faith what we see is the christian faith Is actually is actually a manipulation of the egyptian faiths And that we've been taught that like ices and osiris that these religions are bad But actually that's where yasha would mary magdal was raised was in these osiris and ices religions of egypt not in the jewish faith It was all very much like manipulated But if you look into tartaria too one of the most interesting things i found Is during tartaria because it was the thousand years of peace the golden age everyone had the same faith There was no religion. Everyone knew the same. We all knew everything About what was going on. There was no there was no controllers. There was no You know dark cults at that point They were off there was a thousand years between the fall of atlantis and where we are now Where they had to leave the planets. This is in revelation as well. That was the deal That was the deal between the light and the dark And so we knew everything there was nothing that was Taken from us as far as our we understood vibration. We understood what source was we understood the firmament We understood we you look at the graphs. They knew there was a purple sky, which a lot of people are having visions Whether they're visions or memories. I don't know of a purple sky We know the blue is the firmament And if you look at the graphs of tartaria, they had a purple sky like the prince song Thank you for the subscriber who pointed this out where in 1990 says the sky was turning purple There were people running everywhere and so When you start to look at that and in the mud floods came which was the releasing of The darkness again, which was the agreement That wiped everyone out and then at the lake in the 1700s and the people were placed back on the earth All of a sudden we have this manipulation But um, but all of that Is in our memory and I think that's another thing we're going to be accessing too is that all of a sudden We're going to understand things that we understood in tartaria We're going to start to deep deep down. No I think we already know deep down what we did then, you know, it's just moving through this amnesia Amniotic veil and yes reincarnation Because if you look at the atlantic religions, those were all the egyptian religions And so reincarnation was very much taught it was accepted And I know from my time in india like if you see an indian funeral They take the body Of the person who's past and it's almost like a it looks as an outsider looking at it's like a parade There's music playing they parade the body And then they take the body. They always burn the bodies They stop on the skull to release the spirit and then they burn the body And what I've noticed as a westerner who was taught to have all this fear Because we grew up in a church where there was heaven or hell Is in the hindu culture From my perception looking in it seems that that fear isn't really as much there Because they're taught From day one about reincarnation So what's to fear if you know that you're never going to die? What's to fear? You know and so it's a celebration of of that life and you're going to see each other again You know as far as past lives are concerned if you feel a closeness to someone Yeah, you probably did have a past with them. There probably is this old contract with them But what's important is what you do with it now not what happened then now Right Yeah, so it's exciting even though this week this month's going to be um Bit of a shit show Yeah Yeah, just just take it easy. Maybe slow down. Maybe clear as much as you can from your schedules Just Take it easy. Just slow down. Just observe yourself. Observe others. Don't attach to what's coming up Um, it's just old stuff. It's just it's the soap bubbling over the the cup Yeah, if we got any young people watching that are in the dating field right now I would definitely suggest not starting a new relationship this month Yeah, perhaps hold off a couple months on that one Unless you want to see if it'll survive a test of time. Oh, yeah Maybe until june So I know astrologically I was listening to somebody we were talking about twin planes last time I was listening to another person speak about that. I know astrologically The end of june is like the last cycle for twins to come together again astrologically until the fall So there's even astrological things around that as well And so if it doesn't happen by the if you are Someone who's on a twin flame journey and that connection doesn't happen by the end of june It's probably there's probably not going to be another window of opportunity until the fall Which is interesting Yeah, that is interesting Yeah, you know, you know, it's really interesting before I before I knew my husband and I were on a twin flame journey We got married 6 17 In gemini And it's like and this is before I even knew anything about astrology and and when I did our Our synastry chart and our union chart. It was just like mind blowing. Yeah mind blowing you know His north node and points of vertex are in my seventh house, which is marriage and relationships My north north node and points of vertex depending on how you do the houses Is in his seventh house and his 12th house, which is spirituality and endings. It's like it is insane It is insane when You're on this journey and you start to figure things out and you put things together and I started to get into astrology and I did our charts like this and I was just like What?  I talk a lot about dharma dharma is your divine path and there is nothing that can really shake that you can Resist it and cause issues yourself, but there's already a divine agreement that's been made before you took Your incarnation and that's the Bhagavad Gita covers that a lot about that. Um It's your dharma And dharma is powerful and so you have dharma with other people too.  Well, I have memories of what he went through like, how does this work? Yeah, right Because my half has been enough I deserve enough like I don't want to have to also deal with that have to but but anyway But all right guys well I will put again all of emi's links down in the description box below Please go subscribe to her channel and if you are contacting her for any type of healing work Charts reiki just again know that yeah Running doing chart.

Hi and welcome to the session. I am Deepika here. Let us discuss the question whether the following form an AP If they form an AP, find the common difference D and write 3 more terms root 3, root 6, root 9, root 12 and so on. Let's start the solution. Our given list of numbers is 3, root 6, root 9, root 12 and so on. We have A2-A1 is equal to root 6-root 3. A3-A2 is equal to root 9-root 6. That is A2-A1 is not equal to A3-A2. Therefore this does not form an AP. Since A2-A1 is not equal to A3-A2, therefore the given list of numbers does not form an AP. Hence the answer for the above question is no. I hope the question is clear to you. Bye and have a good day.


So you would like to join OTK have you put in an application? What do you want to do? Do you want to be like the social media manager? What do you would would you like to be an OTK kidding me? You're asking me what I want to be a social media manager. Just tell me what you want. And maybe I'll think about it. Talk to the guys. You know what? Why don't we call someone else who I think can handle this job? Hold on. I'm calling us, man. Shroud miscalf incoming call. Hello, yes, man. This guy was wondering if he could possibly get a job at OTK. I don't really know what he wants. He said he doesn't really care about the money. He just wants to help out. OK, well, how much is he going to pass? Listen, I never said those things, actually. So OK, so what's your best offer? I don't really have an offer to be honest with you. I said that we will use his chairs, and that's all I got. Well, what's his best offer? What's his name? Hello again. It's Michael, right? This thing on. You have this resume? Is this guy talking? I mean, he usually doesn't talk, but that's the part of it. I'm literally being egoed by this crazy. Well, are you a Grand Marshal Scarab Lord? No, no, so wait your turn to talk. Sorry. OK, you're welcome. So anyway, how much can you offer to pass? That doesn't work like that. How much do you offer to pay me? We are accepting the sponsorship of having. Let's be real. We're accepting any sponsors here right now. We're broke. Shroud, OK, or actually, we're broke as hell. We're completely broke. OK, we can barely afford the $15 a month for us to play. Wow. Yeah, it's bad. What can you do? That's a real business expense. Should I could do anything and everything? Quite literally. Can you do? Yes. OK, nice. How about? Oh, if you can do that, that's big. Yeah, that'd be big. It'd be really big. Oh, God, I don't know what this is. Maybe I can't do this. Would you be able to stream? Do you think you can do that sometimes? On occasion. I don't like the lack of confidence in your voice there. So yeah, there's like the quarter second a quarter is like two seven right point two seven seconds. OK, so you think you can stream? Yeah, when? When do you think you could stream? Every other weekday? No weekends, though. I can't do weekends. Yeah, you have to take care of his kid then. Let me ask you a question, Shroud. So I actually have your resume right here and it says you play a lot of games, but we are currently looking for more people who could figure out in the just chatting section. Would you be OK with reacting a little bit more? No. Hmm. Can I give you guys some advice? No. Please don't. Please don't. OK, this one time, I'll let you give us advice. DMCA, I think you guys should stop reacting as much as you are. In fact, stop it all together. I don't know what the village people have to do with this. Why should we stop reacting? What do you mean? DMCA, you realize it's not just that, though. It's music and stuff like that. So the music that you play is also bad. It's all of it. So what do you want me to do, Shroud? Just play Valorant all day? Yes, actually. We were, bro, I just realized we were supposed to play Tarkov together. We were and you never messaged me back. I specifically asked you one day you were in my chat. I was like, let's play Tarkov and you didn't answer me. Yeah, write that down in our notes, by the way. I did not message Miss Kiff back. I'll be honest, I don't believe you. So I feel like I would have jumped on the opportunity. I think I think I don't even think I was live. I think you do this in my offline chat. Oh, that's actually true because Miss Kiff is only going to talk to you when you're live anyway. If you're not even if you're not over 20,000 viewers, don't even look at me. That's my logic. Look, Shroud, we should I think we should collab more. I think that's what we're trying to get out right now.  So I feel like we can collab more and possibly make some of the best content this website's ever seen. Honestly, you're right. Is that what Shroud, let me ask you a question. Yeah. Have you ever eaten corn the long way? I'm sorry? Have you ever eaten corn the long way? Not now, S-Fan, don't do this to him. What does that mean? What do you mean? What does it mean? Corn the long way. Yeah, like I don't understand. Can you explain? It's like an efficient try to envision it. Yeah. Is that way because that way the top of your teeth and the bottom teeth can attack the kernels equally at the same time. And what this does is this allows you to double the efficiency of eating corn. What? You'll understand when you're older. All right. So you want to join OTK? Maybe. I don't know. I don't know anymore. What? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I feel like we're getting off to the wrong foot. How about this? We will include you on every single thing we do and you get a majority stakeholder inside the company. Can we talk specifics? Like, how much? 120%. I'm going to go 110%. Can I take a look at your books to see what I'm getting into? We're not authors. We're org owners. Do you even know what you're signing up for? I feel like Shroud is just trying to get into everything. Jesus Christ. Sorry. I couldn't hear you. You know what? I don't even care anymore, honestly.  OK, I don't even want to be part of this anymore. I'm out of here. Have you ever tried corn pops this year? He left. He actually left. I feel like we did a good job there. I feel like there's some real potential with this. There's some wiggle room for sure. I do understand. I think he just wants. Stupid man. Funny. Wait, they're saying that we blew it. You guys ruined it. You could have made him the CEO. Chad, we're OTK. We're already massive. We don't need Shroud's massive ego with us, OK? Chad, we're OTK. We're already massive. We don't need Shroud's massive ego with us, OK? There's enough going around. The guy is ego, man. I swear. You threw for content? No. I think we just, Chad, I'm telling you, he's going to come back with an offer and then we'll accept it, no matter what it is. Yeah. How much do you think he'll pay us a month? Well over 5K. That would be good. Each? Come on, all right. He's watching? No, he's not. See, I told you he's already back. What did I tell you, Chad? All right. You can't get away from OTK. He loves this stuff. I mean, who's not a fan of OTK? Probably OTV. How about this? If Shroud hosts me, I'll even, I'll think about it, OK? I'll think about it, but he has to host me almost every day from now on. He said, if you host him, he'll accept. Wait, who? Who am I hosting? Miss Gif? I'm going to host S-Fan because S-Fan is, he's just a much better gamer than Miss Gif. Shroud says you're a better gamer than Miz, obviously. Don't tell him what. He's hosting S-Fan. No way. Oh, Shroud.  Just the shamelessness, man. He hosted S-Fan with 17,000 viewers.   Look, Shroud, look, listen to me. Come on, man.  I do so many days and months of entertaining you, and you host S-Fan. You got a chair, dude. What are you? I want 17,000 viewers, OK? Do you know how hard it is to do just chatting with Hassan today? It's impossible. Dude, all you have to do is just talk politics, OK? Give me your best political opinion right now.  You got a chair, OK? I get a host. It's even. It's not even. I want both.  I really should get into politics.  Look, you don't even have to have good opinions. It's fine. Whatever. All right. You know what? S-Fan, you won.  I'm leaving. Yeah, that's fine. All right, I'll talk to you later. Bye. Shroud, thanks a ton for the raid, dude. Thank you so much, man. Join Trendwrecks Discord. For what? That's funny. Anyway, I'm out of here. Thank you guys for watching. I'll be back on tomorrow afternoon. I'm going to host S-Fan because S-Fan is he's just a much better gamer than Miss Gif. Like he's true, actually. Yeah, this is true. I should send him a chair. Look at his chat. Look at Shroud's chat. He's just spamming trues. Unbelievable, dude. Unbelievable. Oh, by the way. OK, so I'm curious. Who is here from Shroud's host who doesn't really know what OTK is, right? We were just talking about it. Maybe I should explain a little bit. Clean your room. I was doing Mario Kart live and I made a track, OK?  Basically what we're looking at doing, it's basically like a group. We can do stream content. We can do whatever together, right? We already do stuff with our friends, normally. But now it's official. Yeah, we're building houses next to each other. Miss Gif's house is already done. My house is going to be done in a few months. So it's going to be super fun, man.   No, I wish it was, but no, it's not. And we have one eSports team. And it's Mezz, Trill, Cidoo, Samayam. Those four guys, we have one wow arena team. So yeah, that's what we got so far. OTK over the corn. No, it's not over the corn. It's not onto Korea. It's nothing else. It is OTK, one true king.


This question here reads, some of the women that were mentioned today as examples can be viewed as anomalies. Okay, I love this, because as soon as I read it, I was like, ah, I knew somebody was gonna ask this. I knew somebody was going to say, oh yeah, yeah, I know, but those are the greats. Does this actually apply to me? So the question goes, or that they were women who were present in the time of the Prophet, so l'Allah wa'ala, he was sending them, which is also a very common thing that people say. But they were sahabi'at. Who are we? Okay, hang on. And we are not debating that they are the best of generations. This is clear from the hadith. However, or, I'm gonna continue, or they were sahabi'at, yes, okay, you got that. Or they were so special and better than us, that they are at a different level that we will never reach. How do we talk about this? I'll tell you exactly how we talk about this. The reason we decided in this, or at least in my talk, I decided to bring examples of the Prophet's wife and examples of the sahabi'at was specifically because the topic itself had to do with the concept of, my topic was stay at home.  And I was giving examples because people are going to say, is there proof in the Prophet's era that women did more than stay at home? I said, well, who better than the very woman of the Prophet's era, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, and his very wives, Redwan and Lahi Alaih, to actually explain. But that does not mean that in all of Muslim history, that there weren't so many examples, sisters, you have to hear these stories and understand that there were so many of them, you ubiquitous, to where these are not anomalies. They are not. And I'll tell you, and this is why I'm so happy to say that, because anytime I get to share about Damascus, I love it, the show. Because for me, for me, I had the honor of being able to see this in real life. People who are present, I don't know who was in the Holocaust on Friday night a couple weeks ago, I got so frustrated, it's fine, I want the sisters, but with the questions that people ask about, where are the female scholars? And I would explain and explain. And finally, I just said, you know what, I turned off my green screen behind me and there was my bookshelf, right? And I just pointed at my bookshelf and I said, you see these shelves over here? You see these shelves behind me? There were rows and rows and rows of books.   It's all right there on the shelf and they were all wanting to have Damascus in one place, one country. I think we added to it all the countries of the world. Fatabarak Allah, what you said was so true, we may not know the women scholars because sometimes the auntie who is in the community who you learn structural racism from and nobody calls her a doctor, ustada, blah, blah, with honorific titles. But she has more knowledge on that topic than anyone else, right? And then what about all of our teachers that actually have knowledge and either we don't know them, simply the gems, the gems of our community or they don't have a platform, which is what Rahmah Foundation is a platform from all the women ustadas to speak from. They don't have a whole organization backing them, our masajid opening their doors to them. Or that simply we are so used to just like the question about the Qur'an apps and listening to men who read Qur'an, beautiful recitations, we're so accustomed to listening to a man reciting Qur'an. We've never even heard a woman recite Qur'an. Subhanallah, right? And so let me just tell you this. These are not anomalies. Back to the question. What I saw, Subhanallah, was a beautiful story of balance. A story of women who had, if Allah blessed them with a spouse, were married. And from those who were married up, Allah blessed them with children were mothers. But every single one of them without exception, whether she was a wife or not, whether she was with or divorced, whether she was single or never married, whether she had children, 10 of them were one. They had one thing in common always. They were dedicated to the knowledge of Islam. They learned their Islam. These women, it doesn't matter. The primary level was they all memorized the Qur'an. Every single last one of them had Ijaz and Qur'an. And then there are those who went further up and memorized a hadith. And eventually got Ijaz as in all the books of hadith. And those who became the 10 Na'shar Qura'at of Qur'an. Right, and on and on and on, Subhanallah. And we're not talking in the ones or 10, 20s or 30s anomalies. We're talking in the hundreds. It was a whole movement. It was beautiful. It still is. These are currently living people, though they may not all be in Damascus today. Make Dua for Syria and all of the countries of the Muslim world and the world by extension. The reason I'm sharing this with you sisters is because we tend to think of anomalies. Let me tell you, after I came back from studying Syria, one of the trips back, I had actually spent so much time studying with women teachers. And at a young age, I was a teenager when I first started. I went to my first mixed, yeah I mean mixed as in like a woman where on one side and then around the other side, program. It was a month long intensive dean program. And I was like, huh, this is interesting. There were all male teachers. Actually quite a funny story. There were all male teachers. There wasn't a single woman teacher. And I'm like, yeah, I don't know. Anyway, I'd never really heard too many male teachers speak, whatever. So each one was getting up and giving his lecture. And after like a day's worth of this, this shows you how naive and kind of silly. I was still very young. I'm sitting in the front row. The problem is I'm sitting in the front row. And I listened to each of them, each of them, each of them. Okay, we have a whole day worth of male teachers speaking. Beautiful teachers, masha'Allah.  And I said, huh, how strange. They're all men. And I said, you know, they're not so bad. They're just not as good as the woman teachers. And the sister sitting next to me, well, we'll not forget the look on their faces. They looked at me like, what planet did you just come off of? That you know more woman teachers and scholars that is the weird anomaly that the male ones are speaking. And that was my reality. All of the women were teachers. All the teachers that we had were women, subhanallah, scholars, scholars. Alhamdulillah, Allah allowed me to keep going back to Damascus. I did study with the men and the sheikhs of all of Damascus, beautiful, masha'Allah. But something special about that, to where you can take a young kid and put her in a program and go, huh, strange male teachers, masha'Allah, right? I had a friend, very similar, sorry, tangent here. But she had lived all her life overseas and so her hockey team was all women, all girls in the Muslim country. When she moved to Canada, they went to their first official hockey game. And so when you have the mask on and everyone's playing, you can't see if they're a male or a woman. And then they're a woman. And so eventually it took their helmets off and she goes, oh, they're men. Exact same reaction. It depends what you saw. It depends what you grew up with. It depends what you were able, Allah gave you the ability to see. Sisters, these examples are not anomalies. They're more ubiquitous than we think and they absolutely can and should and will be you and your daughters, inshallah ta'ala.


On June 16, 1937, a strange plane rose out of the Arctic Circle and landed on the banks of an American river. The river was the Columbia, the place, the northwest corner of America. It was a fine, exciting day. That plane came from Moscow, and these men were neighbors who dropped in from the sky. Brave men in civilian clothes who said it was easy, natural to fly from the other side of the world, Moscow to the Columbia River, nonstop. Why didn't the Russians stop at Boston first, at New York or Chicago? Because they came this way, far north of all these cities, they flew along a circle across the white and frozen top of the world. Which is the shorter, a curved line or a straight line? A straight line, but only if the world is flat. For a flat world, this old-fashioned map is perfect. But the world is round, so let's change to a round map. Now we see the earth as if from a plane flying very high. Now the straight line becomes curved. And the circle, the way the Russians came, is seen to be straight and short. So the northwest becomes a kind of a crossroads of the air and a place of importance to the whole world. It holds great trade routes together. The northwest to East Asia, the northwest to Latin America, the northwest to Europe, the northwest to Australia. Here's a new kind of world, air thronged, air encircled with no barriers but storms, with no boundaries but the direction of the wind. The northwest will be a center of this world. Let's see what it looks like. The face of its mountains, its rapids, lakes and rivers. The shape of its cities and the shape of the states that were formed inside of it. Washington. The name of America's hero and first president. The two states in the tongue of the Indian. Oregon, Idaho. Three states, 400,000 square miles. North, a frontier without bayonets. Canada and British Columbia. And west, a notion. Here the west wind moves and the heavy Pacific moves and lifts against the granite of the northwest. The noise of the ocean and the silence of this mountain are the same today as they were when the first man looked at this continent. The air is still bright and clear, ice cold and exciting. It's a young country and the people who live here feel it. They enjoy the snow, the swiftness of the mountain. They enjoy the summer of the Indian lakes. The run of water sounds in their memory and the great sound of the Columbia River. The Indians who fish here have treaty rights in these rivers. The forests behind them still hide the wolf, the mountain lion and the bear. The salmon still climb 1200 miles up from the sea to spawn in fresh water. But now they climb ladders made by man who counts and tabulates them. Salmon are a treasure of the northwest as the river itself is a treasure. It is bridged now. It serves man and it runs through his cities. There are mountains behind the cities. The suburbs are the green forests. The wind over the streets. Fresh and salt blows in from the Pacific. From here the northwest trades with half the world. From Alaska, furs, gold and raw materials. From California, oil, oranges and wine. Cargos of sugar from Honolulu. From Ceylon, tea, hemp and mahogany logs. From Russia, rare metals for hardening steel. To Russia, food and machines. The ports are young and growing fast. In two generations the cities have doubled, troubled in size. One third of the northwest lives in these new cities. The whole world interests these people. They are curious, noisy, energetic. They have the look of the skilled man. They're at home among machines. Electricity is their friend. And yet they still breathe the frontier wind and the wind still smells of the sea, of the cool mountain and of the evergreens on the mountain. On the slopes of the Cascade Range the northwest citizen is a lumberjack. Out of the dark of the forest he cuts trees as high as skyscrapers and rolls them down the mountain to be made into homes and furniture and books to be read. On the banks of the snow-melted rivers he works as a fisherman. Out of cold streams, out of the fertile sea he draws tuna and halibut, candlefish and steelhead trout and Thai salmon and sends them to the cannery workers who cook and seal them with steel. In London the northwest citizen drives his sheep toward the railheads and further east on the open ranges he grazes herds of angus, shorthorn and herford. He grows fruit on farms too big for anything but machines. He cuts his Indian corn in the cold October sunlight. He cultivates the earth for sugar beets, cabbages and melons. He's a fruit farmer growing apples on cool uplands, apples with Indian names called Wenatchee, skooka and yakama. He is a miner searching beneath the earth for salt and coal, rhinestone and granite and loading magnesium and aluminum ore for the smelters of Boise and Spokane. For three generations the people of the northwest have drawn resources from the rock, the earth and the water. This is the northwest too. The interior desert, miles of sage rush. People plowed this land and put in seeds. Almost no rain. They got one crop and then nothing. The land was dry. It was lava poured out of volcanoes long ago. Lava fine and dark but without water. Give this ground water and it grows rich overnight. Irrigation is the answer. It was tried and it worked on a small scale, but it wasn't enough. The problem was too big. It was nearly as big as the northwest itself. The land is divided by the cascade mountains, as high as 12,000 feet. The rain comes in from the sea. It pours down 90 to 130 inches a year. But the wet Pacific winds are blocked by the mountains. So on this side the rainfall is as little as 5 inches a year. Good land without water. But cutting the dry land in half is the full Columbia River. The northwest people began to do some thinking. Here's the town of Afreta. Rainfall, 7.5 inches. In this town there were two friends, a newspaper editor and a lawyer, Rufus Woods and William Clapp. Billy Clapp had an idea. There was the Grand Coulee, the dry bed once used by the Columbia. Now just an empty chasm. He told Woods to store water from the Columbia, push back the river with a dam, and get water power at the same time. His friend said, Billy, you've got it. Two million horsepower of electricity. Think of it, citizens. Power and water at the same time. A big idea, but too big for one county or one state. It needed the nation behind it. Convincing the nation was the first big job. For years Billy Clapp and Rufus Woods and their friends fought to make the dream come true. Then one day Woods put on his hat and looked out. They were really trying to do it. They were blasting apart the lava and stubborn granite. And when the dust settled you could see the men go back up the face of the cliff. Little men working with the big northwest trying to remake a river so it would move their way. But the river itself was so big that the engineers had to design and build a dam almost twice the size of anything ever before attempted. This river from its deep bed to its highest flood they had to pour in so much concrete and steel that the dam became the largest structure built by man in all his history. And it took them seven years. One day it was there. The idea was real. The dream had become copper and concrete. A man walked to the edge of the water and there it was. The Grand Coulee Dam. So big that it would change the lives of Americans who would never hear the sound of the Columbia. Here was water to irrigate more than a million acres and power to spark the industry of four states. It was ready. The power was moving out. Power to light cities. Power to drive electric locomotives through mountains and over simmering rapids. And power to reach down and turn a girl's sewing machine in a lonely town. At the water, there was no chance to use the water. Yet, irrigation had to wait. Germany and Japan struck at the world. The Coulee built for uses of peace became a weapon. In the hands of the Northwest people it became one of the greatest weapons of the United Nations. The power of the Coulee went flashing down the great new lines to mill and furnace and shipyard. The Columbia River was being used to roll, to harden and to forge. Out of Northwest water. Illuminum. Out of Northwest rock. And out of the heart of America itself. They're poured towards the Northwest a stream of human energy to fill up her factories and make use of her power and methods. A mother from the South. A textile worker from Boston. Two neighbors from a town in the Midwest. A businessman who closed his store. A sculptor who came because the world needed something stronger than stone. In great clean shops they made surgical instruments like these to cut the cancer of fascism out of the world. And Columbia Power poured into another kind of factory. A factory outdoors that made ships like automobiles on the assembly line. They called them liberty ships. The good name said the workers on this job because they made these ships to carry flour, the woolen sweaters, and the ammunition of liberty. People of the Northwest were doing a job but inside themselves I knew it was more than a job. They were clearing away into the future and they kept this purpose clear in the smallest things I did. If you look beside the shipyard you'll see another building open to the light and air. It's a nursery where children can eat and play games and take a nap after lunch and it's big enough for anyone's children. It's a safe place to leave a child thinking he will be fed and occupied and interested. While their parents build ships next door their children will be busy all day long with their own tremendously important affairs. Here is the greatest treasure of any civilization. This is a famous planner of cities or a poet or a lumberjack. This boy wants to be an architect someday like his father. Someday they'll hear how war nearly destroyed the world and how people had to spill their blood to learn to work together to enjoy their planet. What's here today? A child's dream? Yes, that and something more. There's a community here in the Northwest, a way of living together for a common goal and there's love here and the fullness of life. And there's work, hard work, planning and doing day and night so that these ships can go to the water someday without fear. So the children will look up up in the sky at planes without bomb bays or guns flying every hour to Moscow over the North Pole flying to Iraq and London and Valparaiso and drawing the straight circles on the geography of the air. And there will be ships that carry nothing but wonderful fruit. Come on child of the Northwest there's work to do.


If you're not careful and you know clip out of reality in the wrong areas, you'll end up in the back rooms, where it's nothing but the stink of old moist carpet, the madness of mono-yellow, the endless background noise of fluorescent lights and maximum humbuzz, and approximately 600 million square miles of randomly segmented empty rooms to be trapped in. God save you if you hear something wandering around nearby, because it sure as hell has heard you. Level difficulty, class zero, safe, secure, devoid of entities. Level zero is the first level of the back rooms and the first level many encounter. Description Level zero is a nonlinear space, resembling the back rooms of a retail outlet. Similar to its previous form, all rooms in level zero appear uniform and share superficial features such as yellowed wallpaper, damp carpet, and inconsistently placed fluorescent lighting. However, no two rooms within the level are identical. The installed lighting flickers inconsistently and hums at a constant frequency. This buzzing is notably louder and more obtrusive than ordinary fluorescent humming, an examination of the fixtures to determine the source of an inconclusive. The substance saturated in the carpet cannot be consistently identified. It is not water, nor is it safe to consume. Traces of pleural fluid have been found in analysis. Linear space in level zero is altered drastically. It is possible to walk in a straight line and return to the starting point, and retracing your steps will result in a different set of rooms appearing than the ones already passed through. Due to this, and the visual similarity between rooms, consistent navigation is extremely difficult. Devices such as compasses and GPS locators fail to function within the level, and radio communications are distorted and unreliable. Level zero is entirely still, and devoid of life. Despite the fact that it is the primary interest of the back rooms, contact with other wanderers within the level has never been reported. Presumably, a great number of people have died before exiting, and most likely causes being dehydration, starvation, and psychological trauma due to sensory deprivation and isolation. However, no corpses have been reported from these hypothetical deaths. Attempts to enter level zero in a group will result in a separation of the group until the level is exited. Devices are common in level zero, the most common being, humming from the lighting increasing to a deafening volume, then abruptly silencing. The appearance of doors, the appearance of stairs, acute deja vu, human-like speech resembling no known language, movement and peripheral vision resembling insects crawling underneath the wallpaper, which disappears once the wall is observed directly. Insect-like chittering. According to analysis, the CO2 levels within level zero are rising at a steady rate. The significance of this is unknown. Entities. No entities are known to exist within the level, including other humans. If you see, hear, or encounter what you believe to be another wanderer, it is not a human. Entrances and exits. Entrances. Accidental no clipping out of the bounds of reality is the most consistent way of accessing level zero, and, by extension, the back rooms. See the basics of the back room's guide for more information. The fortresses of level 283 rarely contain wooden doors that smell of mold. Entering these doors will lead to level zero. Exits. Exiting level zero is only possible by no clipping, which will always result in entry to level one. As newcomers to level zero are often unfamiliar with the mechanics of the back rooms, it is necessary to keep your bearings and adapt quickly to the environment in order to exit. Entrance to the manila room is rare, but possible by walking a great distance in any direction. Unlike level zero, wanderers can meet freely in the manila room, but the room is a dead end. Rather, it functions as a rendezvous room for wanderers who survive the trek. Additionally, documentation from the MEG can be found in the manila room, assisting newcomers in survival and escape. Instructions on how to no clip can be found in


From New York City, it's the Cube, covering Welcome to the New Edge, brought to you by Pensando Systems. Hey, welcome back, you're ready. Jeff Frick here with the Cube. We are in downtown Manhattan at the top of Goldman Sachs. It was a beautiful day. Now the cloud is coming in, but that's appropriate because we're talking about cloud, we're talking about Edge, and the launch of a brand new company is Pensando, and their event is called Welcome to the New Edge, and we're happy to have, since we're in Goldman, the guys who have the money. We're Barry Eggers, the founding partner of Lightspeed Ventures and Randy Pond, the CFO of Pensando. Gentlemen, welcome. Thank you, pleasure. So Barry, let's start with you. You think you were involved with this early on? Why'd you get involved? What kind of sparked your interest? Well, we got involved in this round, and the reason we got involved were mainly because we've worked with this team before at Cisco. We know they're fantastic. They're probably the most prolific team in the enterprise, and they're going after a big opportunity. So we were pleased when the company said, hey, do you guys want to work with us on this as a financial investor? And we did some diligence and dug in and found everything to our liking and jumped right in. Didn't anybody tell them this startup as a young man's game? They mixed up the 20-something, I think. Yeah, they sort of turned the startup on its head, if you will. No pun intended. That's quite all right, yeah. Yeah, and Randy, you've joined them as CFO, you've known them for a while. I mean, what is it about this group of people that executes kind of forward-looking transformational technologies time and time again? That's not a very common trait. It's a great question. So you know, the key for these guys have been, well, they've been together since the 80s. So Mario, Luca, and Prem have been together since the 80s. I worked with them at their previous startup before Christian into the 80s. And the combination of their skills are phenomenal together. So one of them has some of the vision of where they want to go. The second guy is a substantive sort of engineer. It takes it from concept to first drawing. And then Prem takes over from an execution perspective and then drives this thing. And they've really been incredible together. And then we added Sony at Crescendo as a product marketing person. And she's really stepped up and become an integral part of the team. So they work together so well. It just makes a huge difference. Yeah, it's amazing that A, that they keep doing it, and B, that they want to keep doing it, right? Because they've got a few bucks in the bank, and they don't really need to do it, but still to take on a big challenge. And then to keep it under wraps for two and a half years, that's pretty amazing. So I'm curious, Barry, from your point of view, venture vesting, you guys kind of see the future. You get pitched by smart people all day. When you looked at John Chambers' kind of conversation of these 10-year kind of big cycles, what did you think of that? How do you guys kind of slice and dice your opportunities and looking at these big necks? Yeah, and going back to the team a little bit, they've been pretty good at identifying a lot of these cycles. They brought us land switching a long time ago with Crescendo. They sort of redefined the data center several times. And so there's another opportunity. What's driving this opportunity really is the fact that the explosion of applications in the network and, of course, east-west traffic in the network. So networks were more designed north-south, and they're slowly becoming more east-west. But because the applications are closer to the edge, and networks today mostly provide services in the core, the idea for Pensando is, well, why don't we bring the service delivery, the services, closer to the applications, improve performance, better security, and better monitoring? Yeah, and then just the hyper-acceleration of the amount of data, the amount of applications, and then this age-old, do you move the data to the computer? Do you move the compute to the data? Now the answer is yes. All the above. So you got some money to work with. We do. You got A round, I think a B round. You guys are closing a C round. So I think, what, 180 people approximately? I think somebody told me close enough. So as you put some of this capital to work, what are some of your priorities going forward? So we will continue to hire, both in the engineering side, but more importantly, now we're hiring in sales and service. We've been waiting for the product quite frankly. So we've just got our first few sales guys hired. We've got a pretty aggressive ramp, especially with the HPE relationship, to put people out into the field. We've hired a couple guys in New York. We'll continue to hire the sales team. We're ramping the supply chain. We've got a relatively complicated supply chain model, but that has to ramp now that we're going to market. All that money would be pretty used to do that. We're changing facilities, we need to grow. We're sort of cramped in a one-story building, or not one floor of a building right now. So the money is going to be used sort of critically to really scale the business now that we can go to market. Okay. But a pretty impressive list of both partners and customers on launch day. You don't see Goldman, HP, Equinix, I think Oracle Cloud was quite a slide. Some of that is the uniqueness of the way we went to market and did the original due diligence on the product and bringing customers in early and then converting them to investors. You end up with a customer investor model. So they stayed with us. Goldman's been through all three rounds. We brought HP in the last model. We had NetApp has been in two rounds now. So we've continued to develop as a business with this small core group of customers and investors that we could try to expand every time we moved to the next round. And as Barry said earlier, this is the first time we've had a traditional financial investor in our rounds. The rest of them have all been customers. They've been friends and family for the most part. You joined the board too, right? I did. Yeah. So what are you excited about? What do you see as, I mean, just clearly you're excited you invested, but is there something just extra special here, you know, really chambers put in a 10 year cycle? Yeah, I mean, we've talked about it. I'm excited to work with the team, right? They're best in class. Working closely with John again is a lot of fun. The chance to... Not exhausting. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, you know, the chance to redefine the data center and be part of the next wave. And as a VC, you love waves and build an iconic company, right? And I think we have a real opportunity in front of us. It takes a lot of money to do this and do it right. And I think we have the team that proven that can execute on this kind of opportunity. So I'm excited to see what the next five years hold for this company. Good. Well, it was funny, John has teased him a little bit about all the M&A stuff that he was famous for at Cisco. He's like, I don't want to do that anymore. Now I'm an investor. I want IPOs all the way. So he wants all 18, thinks it is 18 companies in his portfolio thereabouts. They're going to IPO all the way. Yeah, that's a good point actually. This team has been prolific and they've delivered products that have generated $50 billion. And you walk into any data center in the world, you're going to see a product this team has built. However, this team has not taken a company public. So that's really the opportunity. I think that's what excites them. It's why Randy's here. It's why John's here. It's why I'm here. We want to build a company that can be an independent company and be a lasting leader in a new category. Yeah. So last word, Randy, for you, for people that aren't familiar with the team, that aren't familiar with what they've done, what would you tell them about why you came to this opportunity and why you're excited about it? Well, there is no higher quality engineering team in the world than these people. So it's to get re-engaged with them again with an entirely new concept that's catching a transition in the market was just too good an opportunity to pass.  But I just couldn't pass up the opportunity. They're fun to work with. They surround themselves with really high-collar talent. Every day is interesting, I have to say. Well, thanks for sharing the story with us and congratulations on a great day and a terrific event. Thank you. Thank you very much. All right, he's Barry, he's Randy. I'm Jeff. You're watching theCUBE from the top of Goldman Sachs in Manhattan. Thanks for watching. We'll see you next time.


Marines, Sailors, Civilians, and our families, as you are well aware, the continuing spread of COVID-19 is an increasing force health protection threat in regions where we live and work. Your military and civilian leadership are working to protect you and your families from the spread of coronavirus. My intent is to preserve the force while we continue the mission. Our Marines at the Marine Corps recruit depots, officer candidate school, and the basic school will graduate as scheduled. However, I am directing leadership to close those graduations to the public in order to minimize the threat of spreading the virus to the force and our families. Marines, the commandant and I know how important these graduations are to you and your families. However, the current environment requires additional risk mitigation to ensure the safety of our newly graduated Marines and their families. I expect commanders across the force to apply judgment, comply with the best force health protection measures, and continue the mission. Leaders at all levels should execute travel that is mission essential and minimize risk to your Marines by reducing large gatherings to a minimum. Nome at your travel, official, personal, and PCS will potentially be impacted by screenings, quarantines, and other restrictions. Most importantly, remain updated with the latest guidance provided by your leadership. And for those of you executing PCS orders, stay in contact with your monitor for any emerging restrictions or additional measures. Sergeant Major and I need all of you to remain ready to respond to what our nation may ask of us.
