[01:58]
We think of all things as if they did end up giving the feeling we are talking about that we would be here. That's not what we've got. That's what we're talking about. Words there of which I'm interested in We can't be worse than we think, and it's important. But to have a capital of faith, a capital of Christ, that's the point. It's the only way to reach it. Never do you believe that you will be able to forgive yourself. That's the next step. That's what you do. That's what you do. We have to think. Cabbage is leeching. It's all the folks overheating.
[03:02]
Something has it. We play a football pitch. We eat snowballs. We chug. We dance. Maybe all those things we have to think about, though. But if that's a workshop, Now, most of the things we report, we don't say it again. He'll take himself for granted. It's not true. Consider it just a thought. It's just a thought. It's important to be aware that he should do it. It's important. It's very important. It's a relationship. Thank you. [...] We should be realizing that we get into a situation where there's some sort of alienatedness.
[04:27]
We don't need to be excited to think. Just think. Don't worry anymore. Captivation of finding out what's great for you. We're all If you, if you realize that you, that the, the places before are the quietness, and, um, uh, be aware that the quietness before, that it is, so, so, let's be, don't think we, that we should, that we should use such a word.
[05:49]
We need to value impartial and serious practices. Don't follow the classic vision of what it means to do. Or don't, in that way, have more responsibility on the wrong concept of what it means. At times, obviously, if there are people who have enough to be adopted to do certain God has an open thing, you know, for giving and exalting.
[06:57]
Now, the thing to say is that that's what we expect, that's what we long for, that's what we look for. Look also and for any kind of danger, dreading or discovery. Not to be eager to communicate one's own discouragement to us. Also, to avoid any practices which is not constructive and which is not drawn to the right chapter. So often we find it is the same situation where some and the obstacles they faced, and some of the ways they were unable to do it.
[08:31]
So one was sure from the very beginning that Peter was again a man who was always waiting on time. And not only was he waiting on time, but he was also working on things. because one is nurturing those things in virtue of mankind. And at the same time, one wants to talk to somebody who finds excuse for his or her goals, his or her desires, his or her peace, his or her self, or not. We can't do that. So if I talk to an American doctor, So, doctor, I'm just going to say, you know, that there are a lot of these seniors who are very sensitive to the world, which we expect, especially today, to our students.
[09:34]
And, you know, be careful not to be too self-conscious. And that, you know, is why I said I was going to be a big fan of this program. They're also not yet free. They're not yet free. They're not yet free. They're not yet free. It's a term quite rich, so I can't even pronounce the term.
[10:51]
It's important for us. For us, for things, it's important. For a problem. Put me down, Mr. Trump. With the impression that we're all the same, we're all the same. We're all the same. So that's the best way to think about it. It's authority that is there. is is because otherwise the one who is in that now collected by those eventually of course as in me
[12:09]
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. the period of change in its flow. It was a certain inclination, a certain strength that is fair. And the way he, in the original, the way that he is, is a product of the trust of the individual. Part of the way of the air, the building, the way of the air, the community, the importance that it is being checked and counteracted. We need to really take and go where we have to go.
[13:47]
On the side of the fear, you look at oneself, really find, and even if others don't see it, still And then here the situation comes up in which, as I say, this tendency comes into action. Situation comes up. to play the same activities I would, you know, drive people to take risks. It's a hard, easy thing I've probably learned. When I get to sleep, which by the nature of God, there's much support that I should have. It's a big, soft pill.
[14:50]
It's not fun. So, that's my biggest fear, you know, because otherwise, All these things come up to you, and you'll get into it. But if that's what makes me, it is very dangerous. So, yes, we value this, you know. These things make it easy for us to communicate under the authority of experience. kind of external mechanical dissonance, that in a very critical, in this direction, we really have to watch it. Because there is an inclination, religious and spiritual, going to this. And if you resolve this inclination, we come to a root habit of thinking
[15:57]
or reacting, it's dangerous for you. And it helps if you're just going to run from these stories. You have to be strong with people. That's me. That may be even for Father, according to his own judgment, it's too far. There are some other things which would be really attractive if they are also best working in the field.
[17:13]
You know, there's the original thing that I did that would please the majority of the age for the one that is there on the page of the book. They say, during the office, what they say is superfluous. Well, it is. During the office, nothing is to be gained by bearing what is found, by being a test of the history of what we have been keeping munis. And then it all goes again. Because it's easier to be loved by the economy than people.
[18:16]
the two of us, we are gathered together in my name. I am living. It's a big emphasize that God is everywhere, especially He is there for what He's saying. He's going out there for that. Of course, we are the behind you, which connects the flesh. It's able to do better. Make that type of thing experience. So again, they are human. That doesn't matter. All I'm supposed to be here is my fucking thing. There are three very main things that the performance of the triumphant dance is that it's not being touching people's lives.
[19:47]
Children have to become the seat of the game. That's the big title of the video. And then instead of making progress,
[21:02]
Which is indecisive. That's where it comes from. Another thing that's important is because we are now in a period of expansion. There was this, you know, of course, always. The future is always probably seen and looks wonderful as long as nothing is done about it. Sorry. That's right. That's exactly what I'm saying.
[22:30]
And I don't know, so there is, in every situation, all of them, two of them, all of them, and they're needless and desperate. Either which is not brought to the right place, or which is just to be heard, to be heard. the development of the thing, the stage of irreparability. Then, if we, otherwise, you know, again, if we, if we become, you know, think we're, we're just not being the best, Of course, I'm built to walk with you again. Well, you know, that's the day.
[23:36]
Well, don't have to. You know, that's the best day because I've been gone. That's the best way. The father, as you know, what you should deliberately keep for the welfare of the community, for the spiritual planetarsis, cultivate father, let's keep it. We consider the development of the community The way that they have to have that. So many. Hey, okay. Okay. [...]
[24:39]
Okay. [...] There is no doubt that it's just ground. uh any kind of country things i don't want to be think about this but what I wanted to recommend to you is viewing the day the first of course is always in our thinking about silence that we should not consider as if I could
[26:25]
Silence is no different. Silence is real. It's present. Now, sit up and hear the presence of God. Hear the presence of God. That is the meaning of all of this. And close your eyes. Sit up and read it to all of your people. then because the market place in the world where the human competition is the other one There are all that kind of things going on. And what sets off from that is what helps me, not for the sake of the certification, but it helps me, it helps me, because it's pleasant.
[27:46]
It's a holy place. It's the temple. where the Christ is labored. And that is the meaning of the end of it, the end of it. And therefore, they know to have prayer. Everything is, for it is their faith, belongs to the Father, and they say, who? Don't go to the rule of the chapels. The classes of the chapter 6 can be tried also architecturally in a practical way to express the beliefs of our building. Therefore, this document is a sweet gift from God to this class. This, of course, is a habitual thing.
[28:51]
sure that they trail without ceasing the program that corresponds to the monastic status now we saw you know this morning that uh virtue is the power which will be in the entire body, and which has been the attractive and also the feeling of the individual, the character of universality, of comprehensive totality. That is this kind of general, called general reality of all, That is what we perceive in our life.
[29:55]
There is a great way. That is a way of loving. That is a way of loving which is chosen. That is a way of loving. um um Therefore, not in love, yet in love.
[31:21]
Love is the direction towards this perspective. And therefore, it carries the heart of the faith of the Lord. His broken heart is the soul. On the way to save the spirit, it has is the spirit of God. The Father being the spirit. So he gave up all his spirit. This death is the only materiality of the body of the spirit. Because it's death, therefore, it's the absolute universal spirit. Because it's the death of the spirit. Because the death is the death That is, yes, from everything that is limited, that's protected by the liberation into that real universal love of the spirit.
[32:39]
So also, this general love for community, the root of this love, So also in the whole round of speaking, the root of speaking is silence. And the root, that's because of the world would say that the personal mutualization in life is difficult. The general challenge the Japanese community has to face is to watch the silence, silence, silence,
[33:48]
The reflection of that silence, too, in which the Lord reserved that the woman for evil be judged. And there his silence was his witness to the truth. That way, too, our woman has been a sign for him, his witness to the truth. But everything is different now. it's restless, you know, the restlessness. But it's there. It's desire. It's invasion. It's the vacuum of silence. The present trees, you know, fear, fight, and lift. That's on the But they never went away, not beyond the surface.
[34:51]
Never. They had never again thought of being here in the wild. With enough tools, they quickly jumped the risk of silence. So we know they were here at the start of the surface. They didn't think that. make sure that there's nothing wrong. trying to be sure of the other part of the . That's also very often the source of illegitimate talking and communication.
[36:04]
So that silence is in the context of domestic life, The credit is given to us. The credit is given to us. The credit is given to us. Our silence is a way in which we express our being true to ourselves. If that's the question of why these two things are so important to us and we keep together, There will be two things that will immediately be escaped into private friendships. And therefore, the disintegration of the whole.
[37:12]
And then, devisage. Because then the silence will be devisaged, either by those who have to get rid of their grievances and look for violence, or the grudges. or the people you want to make sure they are. So the approach is kind of, you know, it's not really, it is integration by nervously making this work. Now I have to show this one at the start. You know, in fact, it's a huge cost. The cost, you know, is still to think that it is not fair.
[38:16]
Because that confidence cannot apply. Cannot fall into it. But if that is fair, then what can also happen? that is a mother's role. So, if you look at it, [...] We don't do that. And other topics don't be discussed. Let's stop. Let's stop. Let's say to one another, how easy is this moment for us?
[39:23]
It's great. It's great. Okay. I thought that we have to figure out a way that we can do the things that we've been able to do in the state. And I've been told many times that there's no way out. I've heard questions about that. So my recollection is going to be We all remember that in our lives there has to be continuity.
[40:40]
That's the healing of the healthy earth. It's important to say that the judgment of our worship is the best in the infection that we have on our daily life. outside the church. The first is the highest of these. In all people's glorification, all the Thank you. Please give me the spirit of God.
[42:06]
I pray that God will make our witness to you. [...] um is It was pocket.
