فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيمي الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين أما بعد we are in the explanation of the book الفرائد البهية في نظمي القواعد الفقية and the book is written it is written by the author whose name is what do you remember the name of the author لا he's from أبو بكر إم لأبل قاسم الأهدل رحمه الله تعالى رحمة واسعة we stopped at where he said وتابعه مو بالاستقامة وتابعه همو that's how we read it he said وتابعه همو the reason why we read it as همو and put a bum on the meme is for the flow the wazen of the poetry وتابعه همو بالاستقامة على سبيلهم إلى القيامة so after the sheikh he sent down peace and salutation upon the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and then he spoke and he mentioned the family of the prophet عليه الصلاة و السلام عليه الصلاة و السلام and he went on to the companions in third position and then after that he went to the tabi'een what is a tabi'een linguistically the tabi'een is اتالي تابع is a tali what is a tali it is one to follow اتابع is a follower it means a tali but according to the fukaha وفي عرف الفقaha according to the definition of the fukaha it is من اجتمع بالصحابي it is the one who has who is met who has been with a companion وإن لم تطل وإن لم تطل even if it is not lengthy وإن لم يطل even if it is not lengthy the period of time in which he was with the companion that is the view by امام النوي برحمه الله امام النوي takes our opinion that the tabi'een is whoever has met the companion even if he wasn't there with him for a very long time as for تاجدين السبكي he says that it has to be what it has to be lengthy it has to be a lengthy عبد الوهاب ابن عالي ابن عبد الكافي السبكي they refer to him as qavi القوضات so he has the opinion النوي has the opposite opinion وتابعيه مو بالاستقامة وتابعيه مو بالاستقامة so we know what a tabi'een is بالاستقامة what is استقامة استقامة is is one of those comprehensive words استقامة is one of those words which are comprehensive and it means هي عبادة جامعة شاملة it's a form of worship a person is steadfast and he is in worship of Allah تعالى in terms of his عقيدة he is steadfast in terms of his external affairs he is steadfast in his internal affairs he is steadfast هذا هو استقامة رم رضي الله عنه he said تستقيم عن الامر والنهي رم رضي الله عنه his definition of is what that you are steadfast upon the command of Allah and from the prohibited matters you don't also you don't wave like the fox the fox doesn't move forward straight it's always going sideways steadfast means you're straight you're steadfast you're upright استقامة and تقوى are what are known as قاعدة which is اذا افتراقا اذا افتراقا اذا افتراقا اذا افتراقا اذا افتراقا اذا افتراقا they are like that استقامة and تقوى they are synonyms of one another so here استقامة and تقوى they roughly mean the same right now so what تابعيهم those who follow the companions بالاستقامة with steadfastness they follow the companions with steadfastness و تابعيهم بالاستقامة على سبيلهم على سبيلهم means what اي على طريقي الديني على طريقيهم they are steadfast upon the path which path the religion in other words in doing what the companions did and staying away from that which the companions stayed away from and following of the companions it is not it is not just a mere attributing and ascribing yourself it is not just a mere attributing but rather it is following them قلبا و قالبا you are externally and internally following them you see and that's why Allah He commanded us to سبحانه وتعالى on the tongue of the messenger that every single day in our 5 daily prayers in every single ركعة we have to recite this سورة سورة الفاتحة which we say اهدين الصراط المستقيم or Allah guide us on a straight path guide us on the صراط the path which is مستقيم so it's a path على سبيلهم which path are we asking Allah to guide us on أولئك الذين أن عم الله عليهم من النبيين والصديقين والشهداء والصالحين وحسن أولئك رفيقا أولئك الذين أن عمت عليهم اهدين الصراط المستقيم صراط الذين أن عمت عليهم those who you have bestowed your blessings upon they are the prophets the companions the righteous people the martyrs that's the path it is so على سبيلهم on their path يعني على طريقتهم the path in which they were upon اهدين الصراط المستقيم this is the path we are asking him for سبحانه وتعالى so this is what he means those who follow them بالاستقامة on that path which the companions of the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم until when for a period of time how long until until the day of judgment الى يوم القيامة which is the day of what يوم الحشر والنشور it is the day of gathering and resurrection the day we will all be both in front of Allah and we will all be accounted for every single thing that we have done and said Oh Allah until that day I meet you and the day of judgment comes I want to be steadfast on their path يعني I don't want to change the last moments of my life some people are steadfast and they are upright but then for a period of time and when they are close to their death they change and they turn and the reality of the matter is that Allah doesn't observe what you've been doing in the past what it really is looked at is what you've done before you died as the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said إنما الأعمال بالخواتين that the action is all about the final moments it's before you die إنما is what the prophet said and إنما is from those words that show exclusivity الحصر إنما الأعمال in other words this is trying to say that all your actions that are counted are the consideration are the ones that is done at what بالخواتين in the last moments if a person when he had done paid sadaqat and zakat and everything in the last moments of his life he apostated with that benefit him it would not benefit him whatsoever and this is the long hadith of the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and he says إنما حدكم لا يعمل بعمل أهل الجنة حتى ما يكون بينه وبينها إلا ذراع فيسبقوا عليه الكتاب فيعمل بعمل أهل النارف حتى ما يكون بينه وبينها إلا ذراع فيسبقوا عليه الكتاب فيعمل بعمل أهل الجنة فا يدخلوها and a person for the course of his life he will be doing the actions of the people of jannah the actions of what the people of jannah and just before he's about to die he apostates and he starts to do the actions of the people of the hellfire and vice versa the person does the opposite as well و العكسو صحيح the opposite is correct it can happen as well so that is one of the things that always puts us to fear and concern and worry that we know we can die upon a path we were never upon and that is why we always ask Allah our Allah guide us and keep us on the straight path and don't turn us away from this correct path so that's why the sheikh is saying و تابعيه مو بالاستقامة و تابعيه مو بالاستقامة و الاستقامة و الى القيامة until the day of jannah قيامة is one of the names of the day of jannah the day of judgment has many names القيامة that day has many names يوم الحشر يوم تغابق يوم القيامة all of those are its names قيامة is because we stand in front of Allah that is why it is called قيامة we will stand in front of him و'll stand in front of him to be accounted for everything we've said everything we have done and will either be something that will be with Allah's mercy be the cause for us to enter Jannah or it could be something that would lead us to the Hellfire講 الله تبار orders from those who enter Jannah and who are protected from Hellfire فالعلم عظيم الجدوى داسي ملفق أساس التقوى هذا الشيخ رحمه الله يقول وابعدو أريد أن أذكر هذا هذا يقاعد as a principle لأنه يمكنك أن ترى هذا جدًا إذا كنت ترى at the نظم ترى أن الشيخ يقول وابعدو يستخدم الواو هذا الواو يكون نائبة النائبة يكون نائبة النائبة هذا الواو وابعدو نائبة النائبة لماذا يكون نائبة لأن هذا الواو يخلق في المكان أمه يجب أن يكون ما أمه بعده لذا لذا يكون نائبة لذا جدًا نائبة جدًا نائبة جدًا نائبة لأن المكان أمه is also a it's taking the place of مهما يكون مهما يكون من أمرين فوابعدو the the wow here has taken the place of أمه and أمه has taken the place of مهما مهما is taking the place of مهما and أمه is used أمه وابعدو is used as it said كريمتون it's a word يوتا that is used لنانتقال من أسلوب إلى آخر it is used when you want to move from one type of speech that you are in into a different type of speech so what is it that he's leaving and how he's going into he now wants to leave the مقدمة the introduction of praising Allah تبارك وتعالى sending salutation on the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and on the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم his family and close relatives and also the the companions of the Prophet and the ones who follow them in good after I've said all of that I now want to move on to he's trying to say on to what he wants to move on to clarifying to us what is it that this book is about and what field does it deal with he's now going to give us another explanation which is that this field is on a particular science of the religion the religion has many sciences as he says so this field is good and as I said before and I'm going to explain everything here إن شاء الله تعالى word for word but so he's moved away from what he's moved away from the مقدمة so that's why the أما بعده that's why the بعده excuse he's called as they disputed who's the first person to say it جر الخلف و أما بعده من كان قائلاً أما من كان بادئاً لها خمس أقوال و داود أقربه و كانت له فصل الخطاب و بعده فقيس فسحبان فكعب فيعربه there are opinions there are five views of who is some said قيس some said سحبان some said كعب some said يعرب and the last one is داود but the poet says جر الخلف و دسبيوتيشن came occurring to أما بعده من كان بادئاً أما من كان قائلاً who is the one who first said it لها خمس أقوال it has five opinions و داود أقربه داود seems to be the closest and they said that it was what و آتيناه الفصل الخطاب و يقول يا صح we gave him فصل الخطاب so they said that's what it was أكون to that opinion so the sheikh says و بعده فلعلمه so now before I go into explaining it word for word what has he just now left because I said أما بعده أما و بعده is used as what it is used as للانتقال من أسلوب إلى آخر if you want to move from one form of speech and you want to go to something else in other words in English it means to proceed to proceed from what I was saying he's now going into telling you that this book that he's going to or you're going to study it deals with a particular field which is الفق but he left it kind of general because he said لسيب الفق هو أساس التقوى الفق but we said last time that the فق is of types did we not say that we said it's of types we said for example there is تفق when it comes to مسائل which are مسائل such as books are مختصرات you read for example Zad مختصر الخليل من هج نواوي رحمه الله يا مختصر القدوري you go to these books يا بوكس which are مختصرات summarized bridged فق بوكس which give you the four of the مسائل they give you every مسألة مسألة مسألة and then the second one we said was what the second part of فق was what أحاديث الأحكام the books that are written حاديث that are compiled that are brought together and they are particularly in جلسلون أوروني such as بلغ المرام ومدة الحكام and المنطقة the granddad of أبو المنتيما رحمه الله انتعالة يا and المحرر اللي من عبدالهادي and others these are أحاديث الأحكام إبن سنة بدود ولا حاديث الأحكام and then we said after that is the way which is فق عن طريق القوعد الفقية قوعد فقية the person lends it that is the way we are doing it now and then the other one was what قوعد أصولية عما تخرج الأصول على الفروع صح we said that and these are always طرائق في خدمة الفق الإسلامي these are always that serve فق so when he says لاسيما الفق هو this عموم even as جنو الفق he specifically means القوعد الفقية that type I'm not all the other types because that's not what we're studying in this book this book is particularly for قوعد الفقية so that's what you have to understand فالعلمو فالعلمو أو بعد فالعلمو عظيم الجدواء فالعلمو الواقع فاء in the word فالعلمو the fa' in it واقعة the fa' in it it falls as a جواب الشرط as a جواب الشرط and I said before that the wow is a نائبة النائبة صح and it takes the place of أما and أما is a نائبة عن مهما مهما يكون من شيء بعدو بعدو that's how it should be look at it مهما يكون من شيء مهما يكون من شيء بعدو all of that مهما يكون من شيء look at it أما and the أما of three letters أمزة من ألف got turned into وبعدو صح so it's نائبة of a نائبة صح very good so the فاء here is جواب الشرط of أما بعدو فالعلم the fact we explained it العلم this ألف اللام in علم what is it this ألف اللام what is it it's أهدية it is what it is أهدية أهدية means what أهدية is the ألف اللام that is used in a indefinite noun but it becomes known and it is something you and the person who is speaking are aware of who it is for example if we're talking about جولد all day and then after that we say أرجولو who is the first one whose mind is gonna who is this أرجولو for it is for him جولد أهده it is what it is him جولد واضح is it clear هده it becomes him so this العلم we know what knowledge he is referring to he is not referring to تفسير and he is not referring to حديث and he is not referring to فق he is referring to sorry he is not sorry he is referring to فق specifically فق good that's one opinion we can take we can also say now let's why are we going to نارو دان تفق why don't we say he is referring to علم الشرعي and that is better because what comes later encompasses all the شرعي in knowledge because he is هو بعد فالعلم عظيم الجدوة so it's better that that ألف اللام is أهدية and it means العلم الشرعي then religion based knowledge and not scientific and academic knowledge no he is not talking about that and since فق falls under علوم الشرعي it's better that we take it as علوم الشرعي that he is talking about العلم آي العلم الشرعي that's what he means whether that علم is اي علوم which are مقاصد or those علوم which are علوم والآلات the instrumental knowledge or the objective knowledge it doesn't matter whichever of those it is فالعلم والنالج what is it عظيم الجدوة ممع العظيم فعيل من العظم it is great great in what الجدوة the word الجدوة is العطية لغة in the original meaning it means العطية استجف لكنه استعار happened and it means هي عظيم الجدوة اي عظيم النفع والفائدة of great benefit great benefit and and of great of great great benefit فالعلم نالج عظيم الجدوة اي عظيم النفع والفائدة it is beneficial now this benefit can be in this world النفع في الدنيا benefit in this دنيا وفي الآخرة and in the hereafter how is it good in this دنيا في تصحيح العقيدة you correct your عقيدة and you perfect your belief of Allah تبارك وتعالى تعالى and if you perfect your عقيدة what do you live a good life الله تبارك وتعالى يسيز من عملة صالحا من ذكر أو أنثا وهو مؤمن فلنحي انه حيات طيبة ولنجزي انهم اجرهم باحسن ما كانوا يعملون I summarize both of them فلنحي انه حيات طيبة they come with ايمان الله سبحانه يجب them a good life ولن اجرهم اجرهم باحسن ما كانوا and the day of judgment we're going to reward them in the best of rewards so علم has worldly benefit and it has also got benefits of the hereafter وداركة ابن القيام رحمه الله اللامة ابن القيام رحمه الله in his noble book مفتاح داري سعادة his noble book مفتاح داري سعادة he mentions that he says يكفي للعاقل اللبيب the person who's smart the person who's clever enough for him to know يدرك أهمية العلم enough for him to know the value and the status of knowledge is that no action of yours will be accepted he says no act of worship of yours is going to be accepted إلا إذا تحقق فيه شرطان unless two conditions are found in it and then he says what are they وهم الإخلاص they are sincerity والمتابع and it's to follow the prophet and then he goes and saying والإخلاص ولا يمكن إخلاص it's come with sincerity you're not able to do it to distinguish it from showing off and doing it out of conceit you can't unless you unless you have correct knowledge and you can't also know that which the messenger was upon which is the second condition which is المتابع following the prophet you can't know what the prophet was upon in order for you to follow him عليه الصلاة والسلام unless you have what علم صحيح correct knowledge so that enough shows you the importance and the need that you have for knowledge the need that you have for knowledge and then these are two assas these are two strong foundations for an act to be accepted by Allah تباركة وتعالى so he says فالعلم عظيم الجدوة اي عظيم النفع it's benefit لا سيما لا سيما لا سيما we can read it in two ways we can make it مخففة ومشددة we can say we can say it like that if we want to placing a or we can say without placing a both of them are acceptable in the language they're both accepted in the in the language the word أسي أو أسي يو is what in the Arabic language is المثل it is like now you with me and it means like very good and the ما in it لا سي we know what the word أسي سي أو we know what it means but what does the ما mean the ما can either be زائدة as it's in the قامس or it can be a موصولة a connective it can be as حافظ الحجر رحمه الله says that is the view حافظ الحجر holds that it's a موصولة the grammarians there are two opinions regarding لا سيما علماء أهل كوفة the people of كوفة the مدهب أهل كوفة they are of the opinion that لا سيما is أداة من أدوات الاستثناء it is it is an exception the word لا سيما is like إلا it's like the word إلا وغير it takes like exception you see they have that opinion that it's an exception the علماء أهل كوفة as for if it's an exception then that means that it is not part of what's been mentioned صح are you with me if I say جاء القوم the people came إلا زيد then it's an exception هزيد come is the جاء the coming does it work for زيد جاء القوم the people came إلا زيد then it's an exception is زيد from those who have come so based according to the كوفي لا سيما is like إلا so it won't enter into the thing that's been spoken about it's an exception wherever comes after it's an exception are you with me so based on that for them it would be لا سيما فالعلم عظيم الجدواء لا سيما الفق إلا الفق is not beneficial for them this is what this is a problem here now فالعلم knowledge عظيم الجدواء لا سيما الفق except فق فق is not of but the author doesn't have that opinion he doesn't hold that opinion he's not of the opinion of the كوفيين in this matter he's of the opinion of the بصريين and that's the strongest opinion it is the opinion held by سيبويه and the جمهور البصريين the جمهور البصريين and also سيبويه that that the لا سيما is not a that من أدوات رستثناء that it's not so in other words it means أن لما بعدها داخل فيما قبلها that it's not going to you can't take it out from it it's not an exception in other words enters it that knowledge is knowledge of the شريعة is what عظيم الجدواء it's very beneficial لا سيما الفق especially فق so it becomes especially فق it becomes especially الفق and that فق is from those things that are very beneficial they are very beneficial we said before when we said الحمد لله الذي فقهانا remember when we were speaking about الحمد لله فقهانا we said that the فق that's used here we should take it as the technical meaning صحيح because it can be براعة رستيلا الفق that meaning of براعة رستيلا to come out of it we've chosen to say لا سيما الفق هو فق means العلم بالأحكام الشرعية العملية المكتسبة من أدي التي هتفصيلية that's the definition that we've taken that is the choice that we've taken that the فق here it means the technical meaning of the word فق and we don't need to go over the definition of what is meant by فق we already have taken it before لا سيما لا سيما لا سيما الفق هو especially فق especially الفق هو so when we say الفق هو especially الفق هو فق as I said before remember it was what حكم شرعي right فق is a حكم شرعي it is juice islamic juice blue rulings so here we drop أحكامتها عقلية and we also drop what أحكامتها عادية أما أحكامتها عادات and norms and customs of the people they're not in here for us and they don't we also stay with أحكامتها وضعية such as the فاعل is مرفوح قواعد principle are placed good this is specifically أحكامتها شرعية لا سيما الفق هو especially الفق أساس والتقوى it is أساس means what أسلو تقوى the foundation of التقوى foundation of a تقوى and تقوى means what it's a comprehensive term by the way just like إستقامة is a comprehensive word so is so is so is التقوى and I said it is from those words إذا اجتماعا إفترقا وإذا افترقا اجتماعا والتقوى كلمة جامعا the word that the author means by it here is إمتثال الأوامر واجتناب النواه in summary that the تقوى here means what following the commands of Allah تبارك وتعالى and staying away from the prohibitions the things that Allah has prohibited from you لا سيما الفق then فق is أساس والتقوى فق is the foundation of تقوى you with me ومداركة ومحمد ونحسن الشيباني they asked him to write a book in what they asked him to write a book in الزهد and he said I wrote a book in what in بيوع I think he said I wrote a book in بيع they told him to write a book about الورع and زهد a statism so he said I wrote a book in بيوع because it's knowing the حلال and the حرام and having knowledge of it and then implementing it is what فق and that is what تقوى is so فق the foundation of فق and a person who's meant to be called a فق is a person who's what my brothers and sisters who are listening the foundation of it is what it's a person who possesses تقوى it's a person who implements that which they that which they have لا سيما الفق أساس تقوى there are many ways we can grammatically look at it there are three grammatical ways we can say it one is weak very weak and two are strong you can say there's three ways of saying it two are correct and one is incorrect you can say it like that so if it's like that then it will become what فق زي is a خبر مبتدأ المحضوف in other words it's not it's a خبر so where's the مبتدأ the مبتدأ is hidden so where is the مبتدأ it's hidden so it's لا سيما هو الفق هو الفق the هو is the مبتدأ very good as another way you can say it and that is لا سيما الفق ه and place a فتح on top of the ه this is the one we will say it's not permissible to do it because if it was permissible it would become a تميس and if it's a تميس if it's a تميس then it has to be a what a نكرة and it has already an ألف اللام in front of it are you with me the second third which which is also strong is لا سيما الفق هو الفق and this is that it's مضاف إليه and the ما is ذائدة the ما is what the ما is ذائدة very good و بعد فالعلم عظيم الجدوى لا سيما this لا with surah yesterday in دفعها ميل الضراب correct this لا is نافية للجنسي لا فيها فتنجنسي has its اسم the اسم for it is و سي سي is the اسم of the لا نافية الفق we chose to make it a what the first opinion إن شاء الله which is لا سيما الفق هو we make it إن شاء الله يخبرم مبتدأ محضوف that's what we chosen أساس التقوى أساس التقوى is ليل فقه it is a description of فق it's describing what فق is which is that تقوى is the foundation it's the foundation of فق is تقوى


The challenge of the Yukon on King, on your hastings. The Wonder Dog King, swiftest and strongest of Eskimoly dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston as he meets the challenge of the Yukon. Sergeant Preston was typical of the small band of Northwest Mounted Police who preserved law and order in the new Northwest country where the greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his Wonder Dog King met that challenge and justice ruled triumphant. Mark Jackson and Bert Holt strode to the wet snow on the outskirts of the town of Selkirk. It was early spring, but the ice still coated the rivers and the sun had melted only the surface of the snow. As they neared a small creek that ran near a log cabin, Mark stopped. Wait a minute, Bert. I'm thirsty. That ain't far from town.  No. I'll just break the ice and get some water out of this creek. It's probably froze clear to the bottom. Nope. There's an inch or two of water. You got a tin cup? Yeah. You picked up some gravel. Don't swallow it. Let her try again. You ain't a bird, you know. Hey, Bert, look. Look in the bottom of this cup. What? Say, it's a nugget and a good-sized one, too. Give me that cup a minute. Find anything? Husty, I did it. Here's another one. Bigger than the first. Now that this creek is full of them. Look how Bert has a big dog coming out of that cabin. Talk to him, Mark. You can handle dogs. They don't like me. There's a man coming out of the cabin, too. He must have seen us. Hello, boy. Nice dog. Come on, fella. Good dog. Let me pet you. He's all right. Bert, he won't bite. What's the matter with that old codger asking where the dog is? He can see him right here. Look how funny he's walking. Hey, I know what's wrong. That man's blind. Hey, look. He put a leash on the dog, and the dog is leading him down here. Maybe we better get out of here before we're messing around these claims. No, we're staying here. He won't know we booked the ice in the creek. It would look funny if we ran now. Hello there, partner. Hello.  Oh, me and my partner were just passing by. Run away to Selkirk.  Well, yes, I do. Temporarily. I had an accident a while back. Guess you noticed. I can't see. You've got a claim around here? Yep. Ain't much, though. I'm waiting for my nephew to come up to work it for me. He'll be up here in the first boat from Seattle as soon as the ice breaks. How do you get along by yourself, not being able to see? Well, I ain't exactly alone. I got Champ here. He's as good as a pair of eyes. That's a fine dog you have there. I don't say he is. We'll be all right when that gets here. I hope you get along all right. Well, Mark, I guess we better get going to town. Yeah, I guess we better. Nice to talk to you. It's kind of lonesome out here. Come back again. I will do that. Come on, Mark. Goodbye. Goodbye. So long. I'm not being able to see. Lucky he has that dog with him leading him around. Yeah. Mark, that claim is going to be ours. Ours? But Bert... What? It's a perfect setup.  All you have to do is get that dog away from him. I'll do the rest. But I don't get it, Bert. What would I do with the dog? You want to be rich, don't you? Sure. This is opportunity knocking. You get that dog and take him away. Far enough away so that nobody can hear the shot when you shoot him. Shoot that nice dog? You crazy? Listen, Mark, I always do the bossing, don't I? Sure, Bert, because you're smarter. We always come out right when we do as I say, don't we? Sure. Well, here's the idea.  I just happen to go by the old man's cabin when he's looking for it. I tell him I can see where the dog tracks lead. And I take him in the other direction. When I get him far enough away, I'll... Fine, you? Not where I take him, they won't. If they do find him, it'll be too late. It was two days later when Mark Jackson walked through the woods about two miles from Ben's cabin. With him, tugging at his leash was champ. Come along, champ. That's the boy. I know all to stop here with you. We're far enough away.   You just gotta forgive me for this. Bert's a boss, and I gotta do what he says.   Oh, still, champ. What is it? It's a dog team. Well, at least I don't have to shoot you for a while to let go. Hey, he's turning the team this way. Quiet, champ.  How are you? You're hunting? Yes, we're just out seeing what we can find. That's a fine dog you have there. Yeah, he's a wonderful dog. Yours is nice, too. Why, head king? I suppose this fool used to ask you, but you wouldn't sell that dog, would you? Sell him? To you? Yes. You see, one of my dogs has gone lame, the one tied to the sled, and I have a rather heavy load. I'm king supplies up to the Indian village north of here. Your dog looks like a good strongman. Oh, he's a fine strong dog. He's young, too. He's fun, doesn't he? I don't suppose you want to pry it with him. Which way did you say you were going? I'm going north. That's away from Selkirk, isn't it? Yes, why? Well, I just thought that if I did sell him, I'd hate to see him around. Not only, my man. Well, how much do you want for him? Would fifty dollars be too much? Fifty? Why, no, not at all. I'll take him right now for that, just a minute. All right. Goodbye, champ. I like him. He's awful friendly. Yes, I can see that. Here's your money. Now, you better watch him. He might try to run away. I'll keep an eye on him and put him right in harmless. Come on, champ. I can use you, fella. You'll be good to him, water. Well, of course. You seem rather eager to have me take him. I want to define a good home for him, a good master.  Yes. Well, then, goodbye. All morning, Bert Holt weeded around the cabin of the old blind bend. Time and again, the old man called champ. Here, champ. Here, champ. Where are you, fellow? I heard you calling your dog. Yeah. He sure can help me. Remember my dog, champ? That big husky that was here with him? That's the one. He disappeared. He's never done anything like this before. I can't understand it. He's been gone since early this morning. He'll come back. I'm not worried about him. He never leaves me. I can't get along without him. Maybe he got caught in a trap or something. His tracks are all around here. Could you follow them to your sink and find him for me? I wouldn't do any good. He wouldn't come home with me. Dogs don't like me much. Well, if you lead me, I'll go with you. Just let me find him, that's all. I'm strong enough to walk a long way if you just follow his tracks for me. Oh, sure. I'll do that. Come on. They go through the woods here. I don't know how to thank you, mister. A dog means everything to me. Come on. I'll take your arm. The following morning, Sergeant Preston buffed to the trading post in Selkirk. Hello there, jewels. Aren't you opening up a little late this morning? Hello, Sergeant. I'm glad to see you. And there is King. Hello, boy. Good to oversleep this morning, jewels. No, no. I have just taken some things out to my old friend Ben Norland. He is blind, and twice each week I take him supply. Well, that's nice of you. Doesn't anyone take care of him? Only his dog. His funny thing, though. Today, Ben, he is not there.  Well, that's no dog I bought. Thanks for calling him or something. That's his name, too. Which one? Why the third one there? Sergeant, that is Ben's dog, Champ. He knows you. Of course they do. I bring him bones all the time. But Ben would not sell you Champ. Champ is Ben's eyes. He is blind. The man who sold me this dog wasn't blind. Come to think of it, he acted kind of funny. Kept asking me if I were going north. I didn't tell him I was coming right back again. Maybe he's still Champ for to sell him. And maybe that blind man has tried to find him and gotten lost. Poor Ben. Can you show me where he lives, jewels? Come, we go right now. King and Champ can pick up his trail. Champ will lead us to him, I'm sure. On King! On you, Husky! It was late that day when, far from town, over a twisting mountain trail, Champ led Sergeant Preston and jewels to an hour's crack to the side of a cliff. Oh, King! Oh, you, Husky! They're here with the dog team, jewels. I'll squeeze through there after Champ. Did you find him, boy? Ben, are you all right? I'm sitting pressed. I was very walking and moving, so I wouldn't freeze. I'm sure glad you came. A man brought me here and left me. Well, you can tell me about it later. Let me help you, Ben. You can write back on my sled. It was two days later when Martin Burt neared the creek beside Ben's cabin carrying shuffles and pans. There's no sign of anybody around. No smoke coming out of the chimney. He ain't back now, he never will be. Will a claim be ours now, Burt? If the old man don't show up, we put in our claim for it, it's ours. In the meantime, we can work it while nobody's here to find out. And here's a place. But what if someone comes looking for it? We'll just say we decided to look around a little. I'll start bringing up that ice and let's get out some of the gravel. Look, Burt, coming out of the cabin. They must have found the old man. It's a mountain. Run, Mike! It's the mountain. Don't try running. I won't. You shouldn't have tried to run away. Now get up and get back to your partner. I don't see why you made him catch me. We weren't doing anything. We want you for what you did two days ago. There's a little charge against you for attempted murder. Murder? You're crazy. We found old Ben, where you left him, Burt. He saved Joe's cabin in town. You shouldn't have tried to run, Burt. A dog will always chase anyone. Get together. I'm handcuffing both of you. Handcuffing us? Why? Burt left him. His dog. Why you? I'm sorry, Burt. I just couldn't kill him.  We could have arrested you yesterday. But we wanted to find out why. You discovered ghoul on his claim, I see. But we didn't kill him.  I'll see that your sentence is light, Mark.  Get along now, you two. Yes, King, the case is closed. Here is an important announcement. Next week, daylight saving time ends. If your community has been on standard time, the challenge of the UConn will come to you one hour later. Consult your local newspaper to be sure.

Well, you know, some people say ego is edging God out. The ego is a death wish. It's it's the belief that there is no God. It's the belief that love is impossible. It's the belief in separation and some people will say well, what is the point of the ego and It doesn't have a point In fact, being an illusion, you know, illusion is not real and reality is the point and The ego is like a denial of reality. So I mean, what what would be the purpose of a death wish? In in terms of eternal life, it doesn't have a purpose So then we could say that since it's just a belief Jesus says you made the ego by believing in it and you can dispel it by withdrawing your belief from it So there's a song that Helena likes to sing too. It's you know, I'm not the clothes. I wear. I'm not all these different things and it's so beautiful because it's like There's two things in the mind that the singer is saying that And one of them that I am love and I am free. I believe help my unbelief in other words help Annie help my mind Free itself of anything where I am not in the belief of forgiveness And then I'm not aligned with God help my unbelief Take from me anything in my mind. That's an obstacle to the awareness of love's presence So it's kind of cool because when you look at this world and you say well the ego made this world then Then what's the point of this world? And we could say the only point this world have is forgiveness Which would be to see it with the Holy Spirit? That is the only point that this world has and The only point we could say that's lined up with that For the ego would be the retranslation of everything that the ego made in hate So this world was made in hate This world was made in guilt This world was made as a as a distractive device as a separating device is a way of reinforcing guilt so the point of this world would be to forgive it and In that sense it is to release it So there's not like you're trying to try to come up with something valuable about the world, but it's more of just being willing in Any instant to value peace of mind more than the images of the world And that's been my whole practice to the point where Whatever the body's eyes seem to perceive and the body's eyes seem to hear whatever the The feel the touch whatever the five senses report It after a while you start to realize that there's a small still voice in your mind that is the way and These interpretations that are based on the five senses, you know aren't going to get the job done They're not going to get us back to the kingdom of heaven and so you quit valuing them and and yet life goes along joyfully miraculously and Nothing's lost, you know. Oh about the Dow Jones Average drop 400 points. Okay. Oh, it climbed 300. All right You know, it's like I live a life where I've kind of got so into the flow of trusted spirit That it's a life of non-possession. So when you don't possess anything nothing can be taken away from you Or given you, you know in a material way, you know, it's just a state of mind so you literally it's more like all the worlds of stage and Every was everyone plays their part, but it's also much to do about nothing So Shakespeare had it covered on both both angles, you know very wise I'd like to find out more about the singer that was in the middle of Eric and JP because during the first song Whoever you are over there. You were your arms were out and you were like in heaven. I want I want more of that I want another round There she is armel Yes You can see a lot of willingness behind those waving arms She actually see that a lot of you don't know the story But she received the guidance from the Holy Spirit that she was to get married in how many days In 15 days to a man that she had never met And she followed the guidance and There is her husband right next to her That's what we call following the Holy Spirit and he had never met her either So that was a leap of faith And it's being used for the glory of God No judgment there You know since there's no secret thoughts. I got a judgment going on. I'm freaking out Yes, so you can expose anything That's exactly how it works Yes To think about Yeah yeah, it seems the question it's about forgiveness and and forgiving ourselves and forgiving others and in the Bible it said forgive 70 times seven You know in kind of insinuating that we have to practice this forgiveness thing, you know It would it would take a lot of actual practical application And and what it is is Actually, there's a movie that I I I talk about on YouTube and there's a movie I recommend with George Clooney And so it's easy on your eyes and so Anyway, it's called Solaris and I tell them about this movie because it's like Going off to this planet with all these mystical kind of lights around it and so forth, but the planet seems to represent It represents the divine law of what all that I give I give to myself and giving receiving are the same Here on earth when that law is pushed out of awareness. It seems like it takes time Takes time to forgive it takes time to work through the lessons When people die like your parents, then they're deceased and you know, they're not there anymore But you still have thoughts about them and memories that you're working with and interpretations and so forth So in this movie George Clooney plays a psychologist who goes up to Solaris and he can't understand anything that's happening up there because his wife had committed suicide a number of years ago and When he's up at Solaris she comes back You know in other words the dead and gone or not really dead and gone He's still thinking about her and she's right there and He has to work through all of his forgiveness in a kind of a real sped-up way because it's in his face He even tries to get rid of her put her in an escape pod and get project her out here at this space like Get rid of her again But there she comes again, you know when he's sleeping at night and so forth and in one sense That's what forgiveness is. It's like It keeps coming at us when we start to realize that the people in our lives they were just acting out our belief system So if we seem to be victimized or mistreated or we didn't get the treatment that we felt we deserved They were simply acting out our our own unconscious guilt our belief system They were doing a great job of it to Academy Award Oscar to mom and dad for for those performances But all we'd we never we weren't remembering them as they truly are we were just remembering the past Grievances that we've kept in our mind and they acted them out and When we meet people even on this planet even the live ones so to speak we never really fully meet in the present It's always through a filter of the ego past So we're just perceiving in them What we still have unresolved within our own consciousness or whatever what we still have grievance on and They actually are doing us a favor. You know the ones we think are the biggest jerks the biggest idiots the most insensitive people they're actually Helping us go past this repression denial mechanism and they're acting it out right in front of us So that we can react and have all those emotions and bring them back up into awareness and actually Give them over to the Holy Spirit and and have a miraculous experience So just by thinking of of your mom and dad is course activating these memories and these emotions and And it's part of that clearing even if they aren't physically in your life There's still the spirit still using that when we dream of them when we ponder them when we think of them It's it's still part of that and in the movie Solaris George Clint he's got to go through this all these emotions all over again with his wife he finally kind of yields into this light of Solaris and When he finds himself back on earth He can hardly relate to earth anymore because he says that's a transformation experience and then suddenly His his wife appears and she's got a message for him and the message is Everything is forgiven everything As his eyes are just really big That's that's where this is all heading. It's heading towards a purification So the course Jesus says when you meet anyone remember it as a holy encounter as you see him You will see yourself as you treat him You will treat yourself as you think of him You will think of yourself Never forget this for in him you will find yourself or lose yourself And it turns relationships into this glorious glorious mechanism of forgiveness, which is really The only purpose that relationships have to inspire and bless To help us remember the truth of who we really are Yeah, this belief in loss or or sacrifice is at the core. That's what the ego is Whereas spirit is fully abundant and whole and complete the belief in loss and lack And grief is all tied into this. It's what the ego is It's always missing it's telling us that we're missing out on something or we're missing something Good that we had in the past, but we no longer have it and It's it's based on linear time. It's based on avoiding the present moment and avoiding eternity and staying in this loop of Not enough Never get enough and when I have something of value it gets taken away. That's what this whole cosmos is about so the the answer to it is through being a miracle worker, it's like We we have tried to fulfill that sense of lack in so many ways And and this world seems to offer many But it you know how Jesus said drink of me and you will never thirst again He's really saying join me in the miracle and we will experience together a fulfillment that has no lack in it no missing and So that's one of those deep roots that I know For me, that's what the whole journey was about it was about going down and getting to the core of that route Because as long as there's any sense of unfulfillment Any sense of that inner sense of something's missing then the mind just seems to seek seek seek In terms of form and never gets fulfilled. You know, it just doesn't do it in this world So it's more of a of a negation of starting to realize. Ah, I Need not seek for it in form. I need to Find my function. I need to find my purpose because that's the only way I'm going to find my fulfillment It's glorious


Everybody it's Eric Johnson in today's quick tip Friday. What we are going to discuss is the figure eight wind Okay, so what is the figure eight wind? This is one of the mistakes This is one of the things that I see a lot of young throwers doing and we really don't want to see that What we want to see when we see this this is the figure eight wind where you see the shoulders now if you look and you Wanted to look at control and where's the orbit? This would be the orbit So we don't want to go here and like wind like this So you see a lot of kids and then they do this and this would be the real orbit on a figure eight wind But what are you so this is why we recommend getting away from that because what you want to do is if you really looked again at The position of the arms you would see that the this is how they're winding and when you're trying to wind like this That's going to screw you up in your entry as a throw So it's a really simple thing, but if you look at all the top throwers in the world Let me just throw up five that come to mind. Let's look at Daniel Stahl Frederick Dockers will look at Sandra Perkovich Robert Harding and Who's a give me a fifth guy Malachowski? So look at how they all wind in the discus. You're going to notice the same thing They're all going to be to this point when we throw them up each of them at a time You're going to notice the swing you're going to notice we call that putting the discus on the platter And we're on the tray we want to set it this way so like a serving tray and we're bringing that discus up That's the thing because what that does is that helps you set that orbit and come here So when you see doing this kind of thing, we're going to say stop doing that because it's going to screw you up It's an easy fix something you can change today and help you throw farther faster So thanks so much if you liked this video be sure to give us a thumbs up hit the subscribe button And we will see you next Friday Be sure to check out our next videos be sure to subscribe visit our website for free videos Click the links below we have links to our free mini course check out our websites for camps and different detailed information Throw farther faster by understanding the science with the throwing chain reaction system. Thanks so much for watching


Guitar and Excel, open chords, C major scale, G major chord, fingering. Get ready and don't fret, remember the board's totally fretted already, so you need to be the calm one in the relationship. Here we are in Excel, if you don't have access to this workbook, that's okay because we basically built this from a blank worksheet, but we started in a prior presentation. So if you want to build this from a blank worksheet, you may want to begin back there. You don't necessarily need access to this workbook if looking at this from a music theory standpoint, because we will simply use it as a tool to map out our fretboard, give us our scale and related chords that we're focused in on. If you do have access to this workbook, though, there's currently five tabs down below. Now we've got the three example tabs, the OG tab and the blank tab. The OG tab representing the original worksheet we put together in a prior section, it now acting as our starting point as our baseline, mapping out the entire fretboard, giving us the entire musical alphabet and letters, numbers and both providing us the key so that we can change the key that we are working in, which will then provide us the related scales and chords worksheet on the right hand side. So we've been copying this OG tab over to focus in on the C major scale and the chords that are constructed from the C major scale, starting of course with the C major chord, which is on the example C tab. We minimized the entire fretboard to get to the open position, which I'm defining as the first three frets. And then we mapped out the fingering coloring it so we can see the one three five of the chord and then we mapped it on top of the pentatonic, the major and so on and analyzed it from there. We did a similar process for the chord of the F major skipping from the one to the four, because the one four and five will be similar in nature in that when we construct them from the major scale, they will end up to be major chords. So we want to see the similarities in the fingering of these chords as we look at them. And then we'll go into the ones that happen to make minors, the two, three and the six. And so we did a similar process here, looking at it in open position and then in relation to the scales as well. Although noting that we are keeping our focus on the C major scale and looking at these other chords now in relation to the C major scale. We're going to do the same thing now for the G. So we're now focused on the G and we're going to do a similar process. This is the end result. We copied over the OG tab and the blank tab is where we're going to be starting at this point in time. So we constructed this worksheet last time. We copied it over. We minimized some cells. So we can see the major worksheet next to our fret board. And then we once again mapped out the one three five notes of the scale.  And we also constructed it on top of the pentatonic scale and the major scale. And we looked at some other things down here as well, which we'll think about in future presentations. Right now we just want to be up top and looking at the fingering.  I'm going to go from E and I'm going to go to N. And I'm just going to look at that open position, right click and hide those items. So now we're looking at the five note. The five note is a G of the C major scale. And we constructed from that the G major chord, which is what will happen when you construct from the five note of a C major scale and that you will get a major chord. So in this case, we start, we can think about it starting here in our circle of the C major scale, skipping every other note to get to a B and then to get to a D. So those are going to be the notes that are constructed. When we do that, the intervals happen to be the third here. That B is four notes away from the first note we started with, and that means it's going to be two whole steps or a major third, which makes it a major. And the fifth is always going to be that seven notes away note. We can also look at it in terms of if I constructed this in the G major scale. If I go to the OG tab over here, adjust my worksheet to be an 11 or G, then it would be the one note right now would be the one and it would still be the one three five of if I'm starting on a G, right? So the one three five, which in this scale would be the one three five, the G, the B, the D. So if I go back on over here, I'm still going to call it the one three five, even though I constructed it starting on the five here and then skipped every other note in this scale. OK, so we'll talk more about that later, but just a quick reminder on that. We then map this out in open position, which I'm defining a couple different ways. One, anything that we're playing within the first three frets and two, you can think about open positions as those that need some of these open strings in order for the fingering to work in open position. So this is a classic G open position. This is one of the fullest kind of notes that you can or chords that you can basically play because all the strings are going to are going to ring out with it if you play it basically in this format. So you get one of the fullest kind of sounds with it.  We could we can play it different ways. But let's first think about the normal fingering. Now, people will have debates on the fingering of the G because it's you can finger it basically different ways. Let's copy this and say and put these on top. So we need to have at least one of each color to make it the proper chord. Right. So we're going to say the normal fingering would be here, here and then these three are going to be open generally. Right. So I'm going to say there. And then there and then there and then here. So that's just going to be the normal fingering. So that will typically have now most people will start off and say you do it this way, this way, and then this finger down here. So pointer here, the middle finger here, and then your ring finger grabbing that one on the bottom, that one on the bottom is a bit of a reach. Notice that that you want to get good at being able to reach that. But if you're not good at it and you just play this, you're still OK because you can mute that E at the bottom because it's not in. Even if you ring it out and you're in the key of G, you'll be if you're in the key of C, you'll be OK to ring out that E because that'll basically be the 13.  So but the class but usually you would be fingering that and getting that last G down here. Notice that everything we're playing, even though we're getting this really full six strings to ring out is one of these three notes. We've got this is the one, this is the major third, this is the fifth, the one repeats. This is going to be the major third again and then you get back to the one. So it's good to just kind of practice, practice that. That's probably the most comfortable position with it. You can, of course, practice going back from a C to the G and so on. If you're thinking about this in terms as we are of us being in the key of C and you're playing the five of it, then you kind of want to be going from a C to a G and then back to a C to make sure that C is kind of your tonic, your root note, and then you can, of course, add the other ones that we have in play, but always keep the C is kind of like your tonic. So I'm always kind of keeping the C as the as the tonic. But notice that you could say, well, I'm still I'm just going to pretend like the G is the tonic, even though I'm playing all the notes in the key of C. I'm not going to switch over to a G scale. I'm going to stay in the C scale, but I'm going to be making the fifth now my tonic so I could start doing the same thing. But say this is it's a little bit harder to do that because because naturally, you know, the C is what you tend to gravitate towards or the related minor, which is an A. But you can do that. You can practice and stay in the same key instead of switching to a G, which you'd have to switch up all the notes. You're basically playing in the mode. And just remember that when you do that, you're in the mode of the fifth, which is a G, and the modes are on the right hand side. So I'm going to go to the right until I find the G mode where the G is the one. So I'm going to go, OK, so there's the minor. There's the Dorian. And then we have the Phrygian. And then we have the Lydian. And then finally, this isn't the last one, but this is the one, Mixolydian, where that five is now the one. So if you wanted to put this side by side over here and think of it as a different mode. And use it as the one. You could, of course, do that. You can go all the way over here and right click and hide all that stuff. And so now you're now you've got your G as the one. But notice everything is just switched around. That's all that's happening is the mode. You're just thinking about that as the tonic. And now you can see that the one and the four and the seven are now the major chords, which which are still going to be the G, the C and the F, just like we had before. But now you can more easily possibly see the G as the tonic. So it's that might be useful to flip that in your mind or sometimes it's useful to just say, OK, I'm going to unhide this and just think of it as I'm going to hide from here over to here, right click and hide. Sometimes just think of it it's easier, I think, to start off to think of it. OK, I'm just going to play the same chords that I've played here, but I'm going to I'm going to keep on gravitating back to the G, making the fifth of the scale that I'm in C major. The fifth of that scale is the tonic, which means I'm playing in another mode. But I'm just making thinking in my mind, I'm just making the five, the tonic or the home base, the thing that I'm going to hover around all the time. Now, a lot of people will argue that it's better to play this way many much of the time. This is uncomfortable if you haven't learned it that way, right? And it's difficult to grab that last string down here when you're grabbing it this way, a lot of times people will say you don't grab that last one, grab this one, and even if you have small hands, that's going to be something that you can typically do. So you can play it this way. And the reason a lot of people say that that's better is because or it's not always better, I hate to say like, you know, one position is better or worse. Like you should do it all the time. But there's merit to saying that that's going to be a useful way to play it a lot of the time, because if you're going from like a C, the C looks like this and then I'm switching to a G. It's faster for me just to do that, right? So you could see the the the motion. If you're trying to reduce the motion of your hand, that's going to be a lot faster. And the F is the same way. If you play the F like this, which I often do, going from here to here, it's is more economical. It's more of an economical or less movement of your hand, which you typically want to do and get practice with. So I would still do them both because I learned it this way. So I have difficulty not doing it that way. And I think there's advantages to this as well, because if you do like hammer-ons, that's a lot easier to do when you're pivoting off of this finger. You can finger like you have a lot more mobility. When you're doing this, you can still do it. Is that still a pretty strong position? But I find, for me, that this is a I have more leverage than this, even though you still have pretty good leverage here. Also, note that when you're playing when you're playing this way and you're moving up like this, I like to this fingers like your pivot point between a C and F and a G, right?  And then I can keep that finger down and pivot to here. Notice that that note isn't in that note is right here to C. If you played it, it would be an 11 when you're looking at it in the terms of the key of C, so I could play that. But when I put this pinky down, I'm putting it on the same string. So now I'm putting my pinky down right there. And then I'm going to just mute the last string with my palm. So so now, even though I have this finger down, so I have this finger on the B, it's not really plain because I have my finger on the same string up above it, which that's the one that's going to ring out, of course. So it's going to ring out as a D. But that allows me to keep my finger down, which is useful sometimes that I can then use as a pivot so that I can pivot from here and then pivot to here and then pivot to an F and then pivot to here. And that's you can see the economical movement there. You save a lot of motion when you're playing it that way. When you play it this way, a lot of times, if you're if you're going to do some some picking stuff, then this is kind of nice because then you have your you know, it's you have some stuff to do there. And if you want to go forward with it, sometimes it's useful to have your fingers. Here's the bar chord that we looked at last time. This is a G, another form of playing the G. So if you're moving up from here to here like that, then then I think so there's I think there's uses for each of those fingering, but this is the most comfortable for most people. Now, remember that you can play this different ways. So it's useful to kind of say, OK, what if I deconstruct this kind of thing? I could play just these top strings and I would get I'd still get a G. That shape is a useful shape to be able to see, too. Because if you play just these strings and this one is open, then you're playing basically a G and I'm just not grabbing something down here.  So you'll take a piece of the G. And so here I'm just playing like the the root and then the third, which is the essence of the G, because that the third is what differentiates it from a major and a minor. And if I if I if I play that if I just lift this finger up, then I'm revealing an E and the E minor is also in this key. So I can so if I if I reveal that if I do this and I go that's a that's an interesting little shuffle pattern. Oftentimes, it's kind of fun to play with, right? And you can play it in the key of E or you can make the E the tonic or the G the tonic. So remember that you can always if I'm thinking about this in the key of C. I'm playing the fifth chord of the key of C. I can always lift my finger up and reveal any of the strings over here. And they'll they'll be in the key. So when you start kind of noodling around with this can lift up a thing. And they'll and you won't necessarily be playing a note in here, but you'll be playing something that's still in the key of C. So you can kind of mess around with picking your fingers up. Now, this position right here, if I was to imagine moving it up is a movable position, right? Because if I put this fret down over here, I can move it up. And that's a useful shape to know because that's going to be the classic shape that you will see when you're mapping out the one three five of any major of any major chord, right? This will be the one, the third. And this one happens to be an A in this case. The third will be down one back one. And then the fifth will be down another and back another fret. So it's not the most comfortable shape to play, but it's it's nice to be able to recognize it. You might be able to reach it this way to it's nice to be able to kind of recognize that shape. And you can see it right here because if I play these two notes and this one's open, that's that shape. If I think if I re finger it like this, then I have that movable movable position. OK, so what else do we so we have those three? You'll also notice the you can play these down here. You don't normally do that with it in an open position because you don't really need to do anything. You'd have to mute. You'd have to mute these top two strings to play that right. I can mute this top string and just play the open positions. Right. I can mute these two with my thumb. Just play the open. I can mute that one, too. So you don't you don't normally do that in open position, but you'll notice that those three notes are clearly movable, right? Because I've got everything I need to make the chord. So if I wanted to move that up, I'll have the related position will be there. Now, you might recognize that as an A kind of shape. It looks like an A because that's what you actually hold down. When you do an A, you don't do it on the nut. You do it up here. And when we get to the caged system, you'll see that this G shape is right next to the A shape. So you can kind of see, you can envision that as an A shape. But when we move the A shape up, you're actually going to have to see the A looks like this and then the nuts right there. So I could play it with a bar like this and then I can pull that bar up right like that. So so so. But a lot of times you might just drop this note. You don't really need it. And the easiest way to play it is just like this, right? Now I'm just borrowing these three off and I still get I don't need the other root up here. And so that means and that in this little bit right here is like is like the intersect between the two shapes. So you can see it as part of the G shape or you can see it as part of the A shape. And so it's just a useful thing to note. And then down here. Then, of course, you've got the ability to play these items down here as well. It's going to be a little bit more difficult to pick it up because you're going to need to pick up that third. But you know, you can play something like that. So in any case, the next thing the next thing you might want to do is think about how this might move if you were to move it up. Now, a lot of people will say that the G, the problem with the G, is they figure you can't move it up really easily. Because if I look at this shape, no matter how you want to play it, this full shape or if you play it like like in this format, you have all these open strings. So how in the world am I going to if I if I pull that up, I'd have to pull it up here and then I'd have to bar way back here. And that's difficult to do for most people. Some people, you know, could be could really practice that and pick that up. You could practice that and pick that up. But remember, the point is that you don't always need this full shape. This full shape is great to ring all the strings out in open position. But when you're not in open position, you don't always want all the strings to be ringing out in this full thing. You want to switch up the voicings. You want a different voicing, right? So when you move this thing up, then you can move up part of it like this, like these three notes, for example. So if I moved it up here and I see that same shape, then I can move it up like that. Or again, these three, which people generally will think of as the A, you know, A shape and A shape, you know, that part up. So now if I was to move it up, if you want to practice, we'll talk more about the cage stuff and all that kind of stuff later. But if you wanted to practice moving it up, then the question is, where can I move it up to? Well, you can move it up from if you're thinking of yourself in the key of C, then I can move it up around the top back to the one, because you could think about this as a circle. So I'm on the I'm on the five. And then the next major shape is going to be back at the one. So the one is right here. You can say, yeah, but the one is right here. There's the C, right? But but no, you're going to move. You're moving it up this way until you get to the C that's in this shape. So let's see what that might look like. Let's unhide some cells up top, D to A, K, right click and unhide. And then I'm going to hide from. Let's go 14 from 14 on over to here, right click and hide. And I think we made a worksheet down here somewhere. So we'll scroll down and we saw here we made this worksheet. So now we have the G in the open position. And now I can see if that's my tonic right there. That's my that's the root of the note. And next I'm moving. I'm going to move up until I go around the circle and get back to a C. So I'm looking for the C on this string. And if I move up, there it is on the eighth. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight right there. So again, like I said, so if I do this, you know, I could possibly do this because now all those open notes will still ring out if I'm thinking about it in the key of C, but the register will be so different because you're up the neck that it might sound wonky, even though they're all in the they should all fit in the key, right? So so but now you're playing in you're playing a C, but with a G shape, right? So you could do it like this. I can go boom, boom, boom, just like we said, with that fingering, adjust the finger until it looks like that, which you might be able and you might be able to reach it this way. And notice I'm muting all these other strings down below so you can practice kind of moving that up. That's a little bit difficult of a shape to play, but you can see the one, three, five, clearly that way. It's easier to play these three just like that, which you can see as an A. It looks kind of like an A shape, but the A shape would be like this because you're bringing you're bringing this route in. That's the classic bar chord on the second string for a major bar chord. If you just play this, you can still think of it as an A. Most people do an A shape. This isn't an A because it's a C, but it's an A shape. But you can also think of it as part of this G shape, right? Because it's the intersection between the two. And then if I move this up again, the next one would go in from a C to an F. So if I move this up to the F, I'd say, OK, I'm looking at the root note again. I'm on here, there's the C. I'm going to go up until I hit an F, which happens on the 13 after it starts over again. So here it starts over on the double right there with a 12 and then a 13. A little difficult on this guitar because it's a smaller guitar, but you can see it right there. You can play it right there and then it probably be easier to play here with actually with just the bar like right there. So there we have it there. So you can practice moving it up that way. And then you can also think about it. Well, what if I switched to the key of C, right? Or what if I switched to the key of G? So now I'm in the key of G and you would think that you would see it here. And then you'd have it at the one, four, five. So here's the four. And so there's the five. So now if I switch in my mind, I'm saying, OK, now I'm playing the G as the one, there's the G as the one. Now I have a whole different set of notes here, which we'll talk a little bit more about next time. And if I go up to the next to the four, if that was the one. And again, I'm just showing you this. We'll talk about the G map everything out in a G scale later. But just if you want to play around with the shape, you can say, OK, well, if that's the one, then then I can say there's the G. I'm looking for the C. There's the C. So in here. Let's map this out. I'm going to I'm going to clear the formatting and say clear the rules. And then let's map it out in here with these notes. So I'm going to say, boom, equal to this is going to be the green is going to be the green. And then actually, I don't want this part. Let's clear the rules over here. Clear rules. And then we're going to say this is going to be equal to that one's red. And then this equals this one, which is going to be yellow. Boom. OK. And so so there we have it there. So if I was playing here and think of it as the one and then I can go up to the eight again, so this is one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. And you could start to see, OK, it's going to be that C. But now the C is the four position if relative to the G being the one position. And then I could copy that over and say, OK, the next one is going to be a D and the D is right there. So the D is a lot closer in this one. Let's map that out this way. Just so I don't have all my colors overlap. I'll say there's when I look at the D. I'll make this one. Outline yellow. There, boom. There's that one. There's that one. Right. And then here's the A and here's another D and here is the F sharp and then boom. So you can see how they kind of overlay. And so when you're starting to play this, if you want to play this way and start to move this shape up, imagine it as the one four five. Then you can you know, you can move this shape up towards the C right there and play it however you want to play it this way or like this. You know, and then you can play it from there. And then if it was the one, I could just move it up to the D and look at the relationship that way, right? So that's going to be the general idea. So next time we'll go into this and we'll map it out in more detail against the major scales and the minor, the major scale and the pentatonic scale. And then we'll talk about the intervals for it.


I'm gonna be leading him on in front of our friends. Dang, babe, you're looking sexy.  Oh, well, I can do that for you later. You're getting uncomfortable. I can like strip you right now.

Maybe I've been getting out my inner kink lately, but right now we're gonna go visit. What are we doing? What are we doing, guys? We're trying to find food because we're hungry. Yeah, so we're gonna go down the strip. No, Mariah. We're actually gonna take it. We're not stripping like you were earlier, okay? I'm wondering what naked in the middle street. I guess what naked in the middle street. She's been talking about this for a while, guys. Mariah, what did you have in your breakfast this morning? I don't know, but hey. Whatever it is. What is that? Yeah, sorry, Mariah. She's on a higher dose lately, so. What a very high dose. It's like, it's like. No, she just has a natural supplement that just is in her body. All right, guys, we just made it to this place. It is so good inside here. Oh, yeah. We've never been in our strip where our apartment's located. There's so many cool places to eat at. There's so many cute places. It's, that looks good. It's really good. Because of Gab, because apparently Gab looks up every place to eat. So like she found it, pops to her, but I got a chicken sandwich, Mariah got a burger, a cheeseburger, right? Someone's thirsty. What are you doing? What the? Wait. What? You do that again? I'm kind of turning me on a little bit. Mm. Who strokes their strokes? I don't like taking it. Hey, hey, hey, I got a good one. She's just practicing, practicing for later, you know what I'm saying? Mm, look at all that. Look at all that. Getting salty up in here. Salted first. So here you go, babe. We gotta make Peter. All right, all right, I'm just kidding. Guys, all right, so we had to stop really quick. Look at this scenery. We're taking pics. I know it's on the railroad track. We're watching this way and we're watching this way and usually like trains, they don't even come unless these things go down. So we're good. We're watching out. But look at these pics. Stay tuned for Luke on Instagram because he's looking like a different, he's looking like Mariah today. What? Like a snack.  Mm. I can't play, I was like. No, no, no, no, you're good. Oh, here's the Moses. Literally, if you're all wondering how Gabbro Moses takes her Instagram pictures. The bottle. This is it. Mariah, how cold is it right now? It's like 15 degrees out. All right guys, so we just made it to Target. Look at this. We already have a full cart and we've been here for what, five minutes? I'm gonna show you guys something. So Gab actually saw this and when we were in the cat aisle getting snapped some more food. She goes, you gotta give Taco this. Our cat, our other cat's name is Taco, the one at her house. So this is a perfect find. So we're gonna get one to snap and one to Taco and. They're like bestie toys each one has. Yes. But you know like when you were younger and you had the best friend. I don't think they have a best friend toy. I don't think they even have a best friend toy. That's perfect. Oh my God, but, hey. Those granny pants. She. You should have worn those in the granny pants video, Mariah.  No, I think. That's why you dragged so many areas to show us. No, no, no, babe.  Well, I can do that for you later. Yeah, not in culture. I can like strip you right now. Really? Right now? No, no, not right now. Not in the store. Not in the store. Wait, where are you guys going? Away. Why? Why? What did we do? Guys are literally running away right now. They are so uncomfortable to die. This is the whole point. Let's go follow them. This is the whole point. Let's go follow them. Let's go follow them and let's talk about like underwear or something. Look, they're trying to run away. Look at them, look at them. What are you? Come on, come here. Guys, we're trying to vlog right now. Come here. Stop. Oh my God. You guys are playing hard to get like Mariah does in bed. I don't know. So stop following me. Oh, okay. Okay, right. I'm going to follow a complaint from the manager and get you to get out of trouble.  Yeah, look at you. Yeah, you've got a cold. You know what?  Just because we like to get freaky doesn't mean that you guys can just. You don't make our friends uncomfortable is the thing. And also I'm staying at your guys' place. I'm trying to respect you guys. Oh yeah, I know. You guys don't like being kinky? Not when other people are around. I'm sorry.  All right, well, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to just, you know. I'm just slightly uncomfortable. Okay, okay. Well, let's just, can we just get past this? I don't know what their hands have been. No. It's a, I cleaned them. Luke, I cleaned them. I cleaned my hands. Okay. It gets pretty dirty, but don't worry. Yep. Air knuckle. All right guys. So I'm going to sign up the camera right now and we're going to see how they react to Mariah. She's going to be like sitting on me and doing like really like PDA stuff. So let's see guys. We're all hanging out in the kitchen right now. So I have to be sly. I got to come in with those ninja skills to hide the camera. So let's go. They're the exact same. They all look the exact same. Yeah, I lost my pin. I'm so tired. I can't wait to make pizza. Yeah, this one's way more centered. What kind of, are we making the pepperoni or? I'm already eating pizza. What are you doing? You look good, man. That's good. Mm. I'm listening. Mm. You guys have a room here. You can go into it. What? Yeah, I don't care if you guys. Babe, you're turning me on. That's the whole point. You're literally making them. Here, I'll edit the picture for you. Babe, your muscles are working on me. Should I not do it? Your muscles are getting big. No, I said you should do the one. Babe, what did they do to you? Your muscles are so good. Do you guys want pepperoni on your pizza or you want cheese? Bro, you guys are like, oh my God. Periscope. We're chilling, we're chilling. You guys aren't responding. I want food, but maybe not in this kitchen. I don't know what you guys are doing. You said that picture so I can edit it.  Oh my God. She gets like this, she gets in movies. No, I don't. I go. She gets in movies. Don't tell her. I don't know if I've got something other than that. Should we go? You're just really slacks. Should we go into the room? No, I think, yeah, we should go into our own room and lock this, or something like that. Thank you, Mark. Guys, can we just go here? I don't hear anything at all. What do you guys want to do tonight? It's only four o'clock. I think we know what you guys want to do tonight. Oh, we want to do a lot of stuff tonight. Dude, we've already had breakfast and lunch. Yes, pizza. Now we're just waiting for dinner. Dinner, yeah. The dessert. The dessert. All the good dessert places, like maybe at home. We could eat bill for dinner. Let's eat bill for dinner. Dessert. What do you want for dinner? Let's eat him for dinner. All right, come on. Can we please? Come on, no. He takes so good. Oh, there's a chaweless place. Let's do this after this. It's dining, curbside, because they do little. Babe, they're not listening. I'm just trying to talk a lot of them so I don't hear anything. So what about? The chocolate and corium. Chocolate? I like the dessert places and this says McDonald's. Is there a chocolate fondue? You're my fondue.  Oh my God. We should do that. Oh my gosh, look at how good this is. Look at this. Look at how good this is. Oh, you put cream on me too? Yes. Oh, yeah. Instead of your underwear and bra, we could just put with cream. Babe, it'll be okay, okay, okay, let's do one. I'm a little bit uncomfortable, so.  What? Do you guys both take like Viagra or something? You know how you guys. We just try to make them uncomfortable so then they leave.  The dirty texting. About texting dirty? Yeah. Well. Well. We were making a video too all day today. Making you guys uncomfortable, leaving you behind.  You didn't even know. We were getting updates starting from the day. Oh! Guys, I'm sorry. We literally had to get you like that. I didn't, you guys were like a little bit flirty, a little bit. I wasn't really triggered to like target. You guys started to get, no target, I think was. Right now, like. I'm sorry. Target, I was like, I'm running away from them. I feel like something. I feel like someone kept doing that cause I don't usually act like that. Guys, we're sorry. And then right here, me and Gav kept looking at each other and we were like. We had to go out with a bang. Luke and Gav, we had to go out with a bang. We did. You know what I mean? I mean, I was wondering what you guys were like. It was like. You guys are filming. I was like, I never heard you guys talk like that.  I'm not like that. I know all day on camera. We're sorry guys. We had to get you like, they thought they had us. They did where Luke texted Mariah and actually got me mad. Make sure to check that out. Make sure to check that out on their page because it was really good. But hey, we got you guys. I'm sorry, but we had to get you where it is. Hey, wait, you just fist bump me. You were like, you were the one earlier saying. Oh, you don't know where it is. Freaking me out, man. I hope you guys went in the bathroom really quick and targeted all of us. Oh, we just attacked his little, his little taco. His little taco got snapped. It's going crazy over there's taco. Ready? Woo! You guys know how to talk like that. There's no way you don't, we don't know what's going on. Hey, it's, we're just, that's behind the scenes. We don't need it. We don't need to talk about it. Nah, nah. We don't need to talk about that. I was like, oh. All right guys. Well, we're probably going to end the video right here. Thank you guys so much for watching.
