Attention and the Conditions for Meditation
Minimizing exposure and solitude is essential for curating our state of mind. It is difficult to sit down and have an ecstatic meditation when we are so tethered to the conditions of humanity.
Thousands of years ago, there were so few people on the planet compared to now. There were no telecommunications, and you could feel the ocean. You could feel the sky. You could feel the stars. It was cosmic romance.
One of the absolutely indispensable techniques in meditation is to create a buffer around yourself that allows you to drop in without having to process and unhook yourself from so many ideas and thought patterns, the momentum of human concern that we can get pulled into, and very much pulled into in this day and age with technology.
The leaders of technology are not really particularly interested in enlightenment. They are interested in your attention, so they are manipulating your attention and using it. More users times more time that they use equals value to them. They are not saying that you can enjoy their service for just a little bit of time and then go back to nature. They do not want that.
Creating a buffer around us allows us to sit and go into a deep cosmic state of meditation. You have to try it. You have to explore these things.
Each of us has to work out the equation of liberation in ourselves. There is a different equation for everybody, and you are the only person who can solve it. These are all little tools and ideas. If you create a large buffer around yourself, what would that be like?
You can do it in various ways. You might be living in a city or in the Amazon rainforest. It could be either, but you can still create a buffer around yourself, even in the biggest cities in the world.
Selective Exposure and Inner Stillness
Selective exposure helps us attune to the sentiments of enlightenment. Something beyond gross material personal achievement is of value to us. That all of a sudden really flips the equation in our experience as to what we are doing with our time and with our effort.
Selective exposure is important, but minimizing exposure is also important. If you have very little exposure, and then 80 percent of what you are exposed to is Krishnamurti or Ramana Maharshi, or some wonderful classical composer who was enlightened, then you are being exposed in a large percentage to it, but there is also the stillness.
We want to create a wake of stillness.
Between meditations, you are still setting yourself up for a good meditation or a wanting meditation. If, between meditations, you expose yourself to tons of information and you get your mind going, you watch the news, you are so concerned, and you are thinking other people's thoughts, you are essentially imbuing yourself with thoughts and evaluation patterns that are ambient in humanity at this moment.
Do we really want to inherit all the ambient thought patterns of what is important at this moment? Probably not. What is in our hearts? What is our Dharma? What matters to us?
Not very many people are obsessing over the Goldberg polyhedra today, but I was. It is not on the news. The news does not really talk about what we love. We need a wake of space to even hear the subtle intimations of our own hearts, our own reason for being here, and what we bring to the universe.
Create a buffer very strategically and intelligently, because everything we are exposed to, we have to process. It is running in our dreams. If you do this well, your dreams will change substantially. They will become much more spacious. Busy dreaming all night is not necessarily good. That is your mind trying to catch up, to process everything you have been exposed to. It is one thing after another. It is a busy dream. It is like ten Mission: Impossible movies in a row.
This is a suggestion so that you can work out your equation of liberation from your own selfhood, your own unique selfhood. Then you will notice it in your meditations. You will sit down, and meditation will not be as much of a struggle. It will be more enjoyable. It will be a natural continuation of how you have been living your life. You have been doing things, but you have been still. Then you sit down, and now you are really reveling in that stillness for its own sake.
Minimize exposure. Be very selective about what you expose yourself to. You should not just go out to the candy store and eat all the candy. If you are going to go to the candy store, buy one piece. That is the same thing with information.
Expose yourself to few things, and expose yourself to nature as much as you want, because it is pure. Nature is pure. More nature, more silence, which I would say is not exposure. That is the antithesis of exposure.
Minimizing exposure leaves silence. It leaves nature. It leaves a spaciousness that allows you to sit and have a deep meditation. If you say that when you meditate, you cannot meditate so well, and it is not really that blissful, explore these things.
You cannot hear my words and really connect with them. Even if I had an experience, it is not going to be exactly the same experience as yours. We have to find out what we can do with this condition of consciousness.
Play with it. Explore it. Tinker around. Be a little mad scientist with yourself, and work out your liberation into the freedom of ecstatic bliss of being that is there.
When you can sit down for two hours and you do not want to stop meditating because it just feels so great, you are flowing, and it is getting better. Even your muscles are not getting tired anymore because you are used to that. That is the mundane part. Your muscles are strong enough to sit up straight and do that for three hours, four hours, whatever, and you are fine. So explore.
If you have been having trouble meditating deeply, if you have not wanted to meditate, I would say it probably has to do with the fact that you are in too much momentum. Spaciousness will make you want to sit down and connect with the ecstasy of the cosmic state.
There is a beautiful bliss of being. Just being is blissful. If you value love, this is where love comes from, because love is an expression of wholeness. Being in the bliss of your own being is a wholeness state. It is the wholeness state, I would say. To be content with what you are. To know what you are.
All of this is talked about in various religions and by spiritual teachers throughout the ages, with different words, in different ways.
Solitude is an archetypal spiritual principle. Not complete solitude, but ample solitude to renew the spirit. If you do not have enough solitude, if you have constantly got your kids, your spouse, or your work all around you all of the time, maybe you need some more efficiency so that you can take that time to yourself. You will be a better spouse, worker, and parent when you have the clarity that comes from being in stillness. We are more powerful that way. We can get more done.
Solitude in Daily Practice
Most people are quite addicted to the noise. One thing to do is to confront whether you can be without the movie, without the show, without checking social media, without getting an update about everybody's day, without all of those things. Confront silence. Anything that is ideas.
Limit exposure to too much information, too much noise. It comes from so many sources. A neighbor on their phone walking by is a kind of noise.
When we minimize exposure, we can listen more. What does it mean to listen?
To be empty is to listen, to look at the leaf. If you are looking at the leaf or the droplets on the water and really observing it with your whole being, not comparing it, not contrasting it, not judging it, just being with it, observing the what, the suchness, the what is, you are empty of ideas.
Listening means that there is no contrasting self. There is only the other. Listening is a very powerful thing to do. In fact, it is very much what we do when we meditate. We erase ourselves, and then there is just listening.
Meditation in Silence and Light
Allow the inertia, the momentum of thoughts, to slow down so we can hear the silence. Do not try to stop your thoughts. Instead, feel yourself slowing down as a result of ceasing to put effort in.
Become absorbed. Every time you feel yourself following a train of thought inadvertently, once you become conscious, just let it go. Be absorption, and let your thoughts fall, distilling.
When we are meditating like this, always keep a chakra activation on the heart, generating love, purifying the heart center simultaneously. Bring your head into light. Bring your heart into light. This is key.
The velocity of energy renews silence.
You are a glowing being. Feel the eternality of sacredness. Become absorbed in timelessness. Use the light or the chakras.
If you ever sit down and you do not feel still, face the discomfort. Be with it. Be with the inertia. That very presence with it can transmute it. Cessation of escaping, of responding. Observation without response, without reaction.
There is immense power in stillness. Once we can clear our space, we can allow that ambient power of the universe to channel through us. You are a powerful oneness with the universe.
My power is love.
Make sure to check in with your three centers: the heart center, the third eye, the navel center one inch below the belly button. They are all connected through a central astral tube called the sushumna.
Go into the light as you activate the chakras. It is almost as if the light purifies and clarifies the chakras in the entire astral system. All of this is related to silence, steadiness.
One way to get the light to manifest is to melt. We assert our physicality, but when we become holographic, melt, the light emerges. It is the source.
With your eyes open, that mistiness is the beginning of the light. It starts to permeate all of space, to wash through the aura. Gaze very broadly at everything at once. We are free. We open our energy field by doing that.
It is always nice at the end of the meditation to bring the attention to the heart center, to what matters most.

Attention and the Conditions for Meditation
Adam Wes So many special friends. Hi, everybody. Most special friend, Mom. All right. Where's Ariella?
Namaste. Welcome, everybody. So many lovely faces here today. Daniel, you made it! Nice to see you. David, you made it. Nice to see you. And thank you, everybody, for being on time. There's power in that.
We can feel the gravity of us starting together, and the clarity and the contribution of each of you being here at the outset of the experience. Each of us really is contributing to the field, so you get to not withhold that contribution for a few minutes when we need it.
So, 6:05. Great, let's start.
Minimizing exposure and solitude is essential for curating our state of mind. It's difficult to sit down and have an ecstatic meditation when we're so tethered to the conditions of humanity.
Thousands of years ago, there were so few people on the planet compared to now. There were no telecommunications, and you could feel the ocean. You could feel the sky. You could feel the stars. It was cosmic romance, right?
And so, one of the absolutely indispensable techniques in meditation is to create a buffer around yourself that allows you to drop in without having to process and unhook yourself from so many ideas and thought patterns, the momentum of human concern that we can get pulled into, and very much pulled into in this day and age with technology.
The leaders of technology are not really particularly interested in enlightenment. They're actually interested in your attention, so they're manipulating your attention and using it. More users times more time that they use equals value to them, right? So they're not saying, "Okay, well, we'll see Kira and Andrea once a day for just a little bit of time. They can enjoy our service, and then they can go back to nature." They don't want that, right?
I'm talking about social media leadership, by the way, most of all, but really all of it, YouTube, all of it. So, creating a buffer around us allows us to sit and go into a deep cosmic state of meditation. You have to try it. You have to explore these things.
Each of us has to work out the equation of liberation in ourselves. There's a different equation for everybody, and you're the only person who can solve it. So these are all little tools and ideas. If you create a large buffer around yourself, what would that be like?
You can do it in various ways. You might be living in a city or in the Amazon rainforest. It could be either, but you can still create a buffer around yourself, even in the biggest cities in the world.
So, minimizing exposure and solitude. That's the topic for today.
Selective Exposure and Inner Stillness
We've talked about selective exposure before. Selective exposure helps us attune to the sentiments of enlightenment. Something beyond gross material personal achievement is of value to us. That all of a sudden really flips the equation in our experience as to what we're doing with our time, with our effort, right?
Selective exposure is important, but minimizing exposure is also important. If you have very little exposure, and then 80 percent of what you're exposed to is Krishnamurti or Ramana Maharshi, or some wonderful classical composer who was enlightened, then you're being exposed in a large percentage to it, but there's also the stillness.
We want to create a wake of stillness.
I remember one time, a good friend of mine, who has been here for one of these sessions, and I used to meditate a lot together. I said to him, "Between meditations, this is what I do." He looked at me with a kind of appreciation, adoration of some kind. "Between meditations," he said, because he was noticing how I had oriented: I am in meditation, but then, between meditations, what am I doing? As opposed to, "I meditate as a break from myself," right?
If you think about it that way, between meditations, you're still setting yourself up for a good meditation or a wanting meditation, right? If, between meditations, you expose yourself to tons of information and you get your mind going, you watch the news, you're so concerned, and you're thinking other people's thoughts, you're essentially imbuing yourself with thoughts and evaluation patterns that are ambient in humanity at this moment.
Do we really want to just inherit all the ambient thought patterns of what's important at this moment? Probably not. What's in our hearts, right? What's our Dharma? What matters to us?
Not very many people are obsessing over the Goldberg polyhedra today, but I was, right? It's not on the news. Did you guys see that news article about the Goldberg polyhedra? Probably not.
I love how you sent me that reel, Mom. Although, other than the fact that it was a reel, it's like, okay, it's a reel, but it's just one reel. That's good. The beautiful thing about your interest and what you love, I loved that.
The news doesn't really talk about what we love. We need a wake of space to even hear the subtle intimations of our own hearts, our own reason for being here, and what we bring to the universe.
So, Kira, I know you're really digging, right? This is nice digging to find and fully express your magic, right? This is a way to do that. Create a buffer very, very strategically and intelligently, because everything we're exposed to, we have to process. It's running in our dreams.
If you do this well, your dreams will change substantially. They'll become much more spacious. Busy dreaming all night isn't necessarily good. That's your mind trying to catch up, to process everything you've been exposed to. It's one thing after another. It's a busy dream. It's like ten Mission: Impossible movies in a row.
So this is a suggestion, so that you can work out your equation of liberation from your own selfhood, your own unique selfhood. Then you'll notice it in your meditations. You'll sit down, and meditation won't be as much of a struggle. It'll be more enjoyable. It'll be a natural continuation of how you've been living your life. You're like, "Okay, I've been doing things, but I've been still." Then I sit down, and now I'm just really reveling in that stillness for its own sake.
It's been very relevant to my practice. It's nice to be able to bring up. I tend to try to flow with the topics, because there are so many of them, and choose which one feels very inspiring to me.
So, minimize exposure. Be very selective about what you expose yourself to. You shouldn't just go out to the candy store and eat all the candy, right? If you're going to go to the candy store, buy one piece. That's the same thing with information.
Expose yourself to few things, and expose yourself to nature as much as you want, because it's pure. Nature's pure. More nature, more silence, which I would say is not exposure. That's the antithesis of exposure.
Minimizing exposure leaves silence. It leaves nature. It leaves a spaciousness that allows you to sit and have a deep meditation. So don't divide. If you say, "Well, when I meditate, I can't meditate so well. It's not really that blissful," explore these things.
You can't hear my words and really connect with them. Even if I had an experience, it's not going to be exactly the same experience as yours. So we have to find out what we can do with this condition of consciousness.
Play with it. Explore it. Tinker around. Be a little mad scientist with yourself, and work out your liberation into the freedom of ecstatic bliss of being that's there.
When you can sit down for two hours and you don't want to stop meditating because it just feels so great, you're just flowing, and it's kind of getting better, even your muscles aren't getting tired anymore because you're used to that. That's the mundane part. You're okay. You can sit like this. Your muscles are strong enough to sit up straight and do that for three hours, four hours, whatever, and you're fine. So explore.
What you could do this week as part of your practice is, if you've been having trouble meditating deeply, if you haven't wanted to meditate, I would say it probably has to do with the fact that you're in too much momentum. Spaciousness will make you want to sit down and connect with the ecstasy of the cosmic state.
There's a beautiful bliss of being. Just being is blissful. If you value love, this is where love comes from, because love is an expression of wholeness. Being in the bliss of your own being is a wholeness state. It is the wholeness state, I would say. To be content with what you are. To know what you are.
All of this is talked about in various religions and by spiritual teachers throughout the ages, with different words, in different ways.
We all know solitude is an archetypal spiritual principle. Maybe you don't, but solitude is kind of an archetypal spiritual principle. To live in solitude, right? Well, not complete solitude, but to have ample solitude to renew the spirit.
If you don't have enough solitude, if you've constantly got your kids, your spouse, or your work all around you all of the time, I would say you don't need complete solitude, but maybe some more efficiency so that you can take that time to yourself. You'll be a better spouse, worker, and parent when you have the clarity that comes from being in stillness. We're more powerful that way. We can get more done.
So, solitude and minimizing exposure, not just selective exposure.
Solitude in Daily Practice
Any questions? Let me ask this differently. Not, "Any questions?" Is anybody interested in sharing their experience of contending with this as an opportunity, as a challenge? We can use that as an example for the group, right?
Not only will you get your own questions answered and personalized, I'll do my best, or we'll do it together and explore finding the answers to whatever that might be, but this is something that really works well when there's a degree of engagement, conversation, and exploration together. There are specific instances of a life confronted with this opportunity and challenge.
Colleen Okay. I will say that I'm going to try to do better at taking a walk every day, because that's my solitude, and put music on, which doesn't make me think of anything else, just the beauty around me. We'll make that happen more and more.
Adam Wes Beautiful. Yeah, exactly. And then maybe turn on Do Not Disturb on your phone.
Colleen Say that again?
Adam Wes Turn Do Not Disturb on, on your phone.
Colleen Oh my God. No, no, just the music's on the phone.
Adam Wes But if you turn on Do Not Disturb, then if anybody calls you or texts you, you have just a little bit of space to know that you can let go and not be on call constantly.
Colleen Good point. Thanks.
Adam Wes That's one thing you could add to that. Thanks, Mom. Nice.
But also limit exposure. That's some time alone. Limit exposure to too much information, too much noise. It comes from so many sources. A neighbor on their phone walking by is a kind of noise.
Kira Yeah. It would be helpful to see the different examples of how to actually minimize exposure.
Adam Wes Thank you. What are some examples? Most people are quite addicted to the noise.
Daniel R Thanks, Adam?
Adam Wes Let me just answer Kira's question for a moment. Most people are quite addicted to the noise. So one thing to do is to confront, "Okay, can I be without the movie, without the show, without checking social media, without getting an update about everybody's day, without all of those things?" Kind of confront silence. Anything that is ideas.
Those were a bunch of examples right there. I don't know if that was helpful. Thank you. Thanks, Daniel. Thanks for letting me finish.
Daniel R Yeah, no worries. Well, first of all, thank you, because as you said at the beginning, there's some kind of synchronicity. I had told you this before, that there are some days, usually when I have not connected for a while, when I connect, your ceremonies are a perfect match with what is happening. It's exactly what I needed to hear.
Adam Wes Perfect.
Daniel R This past year has been a little bit difficult. Many close people and my dog passed away.
Adam Wes Whoa. Sorry to hear that.
Daniel R When my dog was here, I used to do that a lot. I used to go out and walk with her. I used to leave my cell phone, and I would just try to be in touch with nature, be on the grass with her, touch trees, and actually look at the leaves or the flowers. It was an amazing experience, feeling connected with nature, feeling connected with the trees.
But since she passed away, I have not gone out that much. Just today, I got home and it was raining, and I thought, "On days like this, I used to go out with her, even when we got wet."
So I went out and just looked at how it was raining. I looked at the waves the water makes when it falls, and I started touching trees again.
Adam Wes Beautiful.
Daniel R I was breathing and smelling the wet dirt. I didn't even look at my phone. Then suddenly, I just felt like coming back to my house. I looked at the phone, and it was time for the session. So it was like, today is the day for me to connect. Thank you.
Adam Wes Well, I'm glad you're connecting with stillness again. Perhaps your dog guided you through that.
When we minimize exposure, we can listen more. That could be a different talk: listening. What does it mean to listen?
To be empty is to listen, to look at the leaf. If you're looking at the leaf or the droplets on the water and really observing it with your whole being, not comparing it, not contrasting it, not judging it, just being with it, observing the what, the suchness, the what is, you're empty of ideas.
Listening means that there's no contrasting self. There's only the other. Listening is a very powerful thing to do. In fact, it's very much what we do when we meditate. We erase ourselves, and then there's just listening.
Daniel R Thanks.
Adam Wes Very compassionate, Mom. So compassionate. Guess what time it is? 6:25. Let's have our meditation now. We're on track. Beautiful.
Practice that. Explore it. Solitude is... I have to. I just have to. I will read a little James Allen, just for a moment. This is a beautiful spiritual man from 120 years ago. Let's see, I think I know what page this is on. Two hundred twenty-two? Yeah, I was right.
Let me just read the first line so you can get a feeling here. This essay is called "Solitude."
"Man's essential being is inward, invisible, spiritual, and as such derives its life, its strength, from within, not from without. Outward things are channels through which its energies are expended, but for renewal it must fall back on the inward silence. Insofar as man strives to drown this silence in the noisy pleasures of the senses, and endeavors to live in the conflicts of outward things, just so much does he reap the experiences of pain and sorrow which, becoming at last intolerable, drive him back to the feet of the inward Comforter, to the shrine of the peaceful solitude within.
"As the body cannot thrive on empty husks, neither can the spirit be sustained on empty pleasures. If not regularly fed, the body loses its vitality and, pained with hunger and thirst, cries out for food and drink.
"It is the same with the spirit. It must be regularly nourished in solitude on pure and holy thoughts, or it will lose its freshness and strength, and will at last cry out in its painful and utter starvation. The yearning of an anguish-stricken soul for light and consolation is the cry of the spirit that is perishing of hunger and thirst."
I could keep going. I wanted him to end on something more positive there, but essentially, I like that line: "Be regularly nourished in solitude on pure and holy thoughts."
This left a great impression on me when I first heard that. Thank you. I highly recommend "Mind Is the Master," James Allen, all his work. It's a lot. A beautiful spiritual man from England.
Meditation in Silence and Light
All right, let's start meditating. We'll stop at 7:05 because we waited five minutes to get started. I hope that's fine for everybody. If you have to leave before, go ahead and do so. We'll end the class at 7:05.
Let's meditate on allowing the inertia, the momentum of thoughts, to just slow down so we can hear the silence.
Don't try to stop your thoughts. Instead, feel yourself slowing down as a result of ceasing to put effort in.
Become absorbed. Every time you feel yourself following a train of thought inadvertently, once you become conscious, just let it go. Be absorption, and let your thoughts fall, distilling.
When we're meditating like this, always keep a chakra activation on the heart, generating love, purifying the heart center simultaneously.
Bring your head into light. Bring your heart into light. This is key.
The velocity of energy renews silence.
You're a glowing being.
The music has been chosen to help you connect with the unending fields of the earth, the waterfalls, trees with wet leaves, spaciousness.
Feel the eternality of sacredness. Become absorbed in timelessness.
Use the light or the chakras.
If you ever sit down and you don't feel still, face the discomfort. Be with it. Be with the inertia. That very presence with it can transmute it.
Cessation of escaping, of responding. Yes. Observation without response, without reaction.
There's immense power in stillness.
Once we can clear our space, we can allow that ambient power of the universe to channel through us. It's like you just are a powerful oneness with the universe.
My power is love.
Make sure to check in with your three centers: the heart center, the third eye, the navel center one inch below the belly button. They're all connected through a central astral tube called the sushumna.
Go into the light as you activate the chakras. It's almost as if the light purifies and clarifies the chakras in the entire astral system. All of this is related to silence, steadiness.
Anybody who wants to open their eyes and gaze, do that now.
Andrea.
One way to get the light to manifest is to melt. We assert our physicality, but when we become holographic, melt, the light emerges. It's the source.
With your eyes open, that mistiness is the beginning of the light. It starts to permeate all of space, wash through the aura.
That's fantastic. Gaze with me, like you've seen before, very broadly at everything at once. We're free. We open our energy field by doing that.
It's always nice at the end of the meditation to bring the attention to the heart center, to what matters most.
Namaste. Thank you. Sangha.
Reflections on the Meditation
Mom, will you share first?
Colleen Please give somebody else a turn. I feel like I always take up too much space. Nothing unusual.
Adam Wes Did you see color?
Colleen The reds, the purple, the pink.
Adam Wes Beautiful. Wonderful.
Colleen Thank you.
Adam Wes Andrea, how about you?
Andrea P It was delicious.
Adam Wes Oh, yeah.
Andrea P I needed this. I needed to be grounded. I'm supposed to be in class, but I decided to come here.
Adam Wes I'm glad we won you over.
Andrea P Yes. More than important for today.
Adam Wes It was lovely gazing with you. It will help you practice that.
Andrea P The gazing.
Adam Wes Namaste, Andrea. Thank you. How about you, Ariella?
AriellaShira L It took me a while, but I did go into the light. It was wonderful. I've been experiencing, when I'm doing yoga, moments of that, of being in the light.
Adam Wes It's very special. Congratulations.
AriellaShira L And when I bless my food, and all food everywhere, I'm experiencing the light as well.
Adam Wes Okay, that's excellent. I love that you shared this. This is a great level to be getting to, where you're going into light during your mindfulness practice, your yoga.
When you bring the food into light, literally, actually look at the food. Bring it into light. Bring the whole world into light. Bring your body into light, and eat after that. It's a very good practice, and it's a skill to be able to go into the light at will like that. Very good job, Ariella.
AriellaShira L But it wasn't even by will. It just happened.
Adam Wes Well, you chose to allow it to happen of its own volition. Does that sound more accurate?
AriellaShira L Yes.
Adam Wes You listened to the light. It was there all along, right? Because it's ambient light within all. Everything is a part of everything. That's why I said it happens when you melt. The source is revealed. The mysterio. Thank you.
AriellaShira L Thank you so much.
Adam Wes You're welcome. What color light did you see?
AriellaShira L This white light.
Adam Wes Beautiful, wonderful. Bright white everywhere. Notice the qualities of the white next time. Try to see its subtleties. All right, we have two more minutes. Namaste.
David, I'd love to hear from you. No? Okay. We heard everything we needed from that nod. Namaste, David. Thank you.
Daniel, I'd love to hear from you. You can always say no, like David, everybody, by the way. Except for Mom. Just kidding. Daniel?
Daniel R Well, there were many, many things. First, I was meditating with my hands open, and I saw a white light. On the left corner, it was kind of yellowish orange, kind of like the picture Colleen has, that kind of orange.
Adam Wes Oh, nice. Okay.
Daniel R I just stayed on that light for a while. Then I closed my fingers, and I started looking at other colors, like red and green, but they were kind of dark colors.
A lot of ideas started coming to mind about things you said in your sermon. Right now, I have been watching and seeing a lot of things in the news and stuff like that, which only brings me down.
Adam Wes Yeah, yeah.
Daniel R I made the contrast with what happened today, and I thought, "I do not need to be watching all of that."
When you said to open our eyes, I opened my hands again, and I just felt like, I don't know, it's hard to describe, like I was melting with all of you guys.
Adam Wes Beautiful. Sounds wonderful, Daniel. It's so great to have you here. Focus on the light. It sounds like you had an amazing experience.
Also, if anybody wants to email me more about their experience, I'd love to hear. Namaste, Daniel. Thank you.
I believe that's Santa Monica in Colleen's picture. Thank you for that. A happy place.
All right, everybody, practice that this week. Consider it. Journal about it. Put it into action. Explore it. Namaste. Thank you.
I want to very quickly show everybody. Look at this. This is my artwork. I printed it.
Colleen That's really nice.
Adam Wes Isn't that amazing?
Colleen Hmm?
Adam Wes That's an actual spherical harmonic created with some fancy mathematics. So I'm making some posters now. I just wanted to share with everybody. Thank you.
Thanks for the smile, Mom. All right, bye, everybody!
AriellaShira L Bye.
