1:26:01
It's because people
have set up right and wrong.
1:26:05
[ Man ] If I do this,
I'm going to get punished by God.
1:26:08
If I do the other thing,
I'm going to get rewarded.
1:26:11
This is a really
poor description...
1:26:14
that tries to map out a path in life
for us to follow...
1:26:18
but with deplorable results.
1:26:20
Because there really is
no such thing as good or bad.
1:26:24
We're judging things far
too superficially that way.
1:26:28
Does that mean you're in favor of sin
and licentiousness and depravity? No.
1:26:32
It simply means
that you need to improve...
1:26:36
your expression and understanding
of what you're dealing with here.
1:26:40
There are things that I do,
and I know they'll evolve me.
1:26:44
There are other things
that will not evolve me.
1:26:46
But it's not good or bad.
There's no God waiting to punish you...
1:26:50
because you did
one or the other.
1:26:53
[ Woman ]
There is no God condemning people.
1:26:57
Everyone is gods.
1:27:00
At the same time,
God is, um--
1:27:04
is this sort of
placeholder name...
1:27:06
for those parts
of our experience of the world...
1:27:10
which are somehow transcendent,
somehow sublime.
1:27:14
I have no idea what God is.
1:27:18
Yet I have an experience
that God is.
1:27:21
There is something very real
about this presence called God...
1:27:24
although I have no idea
how to define God...
1:27:27
to see God as a person
or a thing.
1:27:30
I can't-- I can't seem
to do it.
1:27:33
It's kind of like asking a human being
to explain what God is...
1:27:38
is similar to asking a fish to explain
the water in which the fish swims.
1:27:44
God is a superposition of
all the spirit from all things.
1:27:51
[ Woman ]
You are a God in the making...
1:27:54
and you have to walk this path.
1:27:57
But someday,you have
to love the abstract...
