:32:00
What a bunch of garbage-- liberal
Democrat, conservative Republican.

:32:04
It's all there to control you.
Two sides of the same coin.

:32:07
Two management teams
bidding for control!

:32:10
The C.E.O. job of
Slavery, Incorporated!

:32:13
The truth is out there in front of you,
but they lay out this buffet of lies!

:32:17
I'm sick of it, and I'm not gonna take
a bite out of it! Do you got me?

:32:21
Resistance is not futile.
We're gonna win this thing.

:32:24
Humankind is too good!
We're not a bunch of underachievers!

:32:27
We're gonna stand up
and we're gonna be human beings!

:32:30
We're gonna get fired up about the
real things, the things that matter:

:32:33
creativity and the dynamic human
spirit that refuses to submit!

:32:38
Well, that's it! That's all I got
to say! It's in your court.

:32:45
The quest is to be
liberated from the negative,

:32:49
which is really
our own will to nothingness.

:32:53
And once having
said yes to the instant,

:32:56
the affirmation
is contagious.

:32:58
It bursts into a chain of affirmations
that knows no limit.

:33:03
To say yes to one instant...
:33:07
is to say yes
to all of existence.

:33:12
The main character is
what you might call "the mind."

:33:15
It's mastery,
it's capacity to represent.

:33:19
Throughout history,
attempts have been made...

:33:21
to contain those experiences which
happen at the edge of the limit...

:33:26
where the mind
is vulnerable.

:33:30
But I think we are in
a very significant moment in history.

:33:34
Those moments, those what
you might call liminal,

:33:37
Limit, frontier,
edge zone experiences...

:33:40
are actually now
becoming the norm.

:33:43
These multiplicities
and distinctions and differences...

:33:46
that have given great
difficulty to the old mind...

:33:49
are actually through entering
into their very essence,

:33:54
tasting and feeling
their uniqueness.

:33:58
One might make a breakthrough
to that common something...
