3 (0:28:39) Why do you allow your fear to control your life? Southern gal… (0:30:04) 3a I’m actually not a nice person. … 3b Afraid not to be nice. (0:31:04) Putting up a false image…. It’d change… (0:31:39) Why don’t you stop being nice? “It’s a gradual thing.”

(0:31:54) Another young lady… I don’t really let it control me anymore. Injury in neck…

(0:33:34) A third young lady… don’t think it controls my life anymore. I’m too present for that now. Used to be nervous to speak to people. (0:35:27) Walking my dog… seeing a pitbull…

(0:36:50) A fourth gal, Kat… (0:38:04) Cheyenne (sp), If I’m not on my Silent Prayers, thoughts come to my mind; if I’m not paying attention, I’ll let it come to my mind.

4 How does fear control you, and why do you let it happen?

(0:38:55) Anthony: Why does fear control you? Why do you let it happen? Thx for the exercise. Going unconscious. Fear: Thoughts tell me I won’t be able to do something…

(0:40:26) Nick: I’m like Mike Tyson but without…

(0:42:06) I feared driving. I got hit by a car as a kid.

(0:43:37) Franky… phone call… Can’t control it. Why not?

(0:50:12) 5b: Learned anything about human nature? Showcase personality … People so evil.

(0:51:23) Man: Made human nature’s evil more obvious to me. … Didn’t know how far gone I was. We’re all lost in our thoughts, ego, emotions.

(0:52:44) Young man: How evil people are, though they may seem nice or sweet — also about myself.

(0:53:45) Hake: Selfish and fake

(0:54:38) Anthony: No good in any of us… only light is reflected from the Sun, like the moon. (0:56:26) Daniel: Incomplete. It can be completed. Humans have hope.

6 Are manners necessary? Only weak people have morals

(0:56:56) 6a Man: Are manners necessary just to get through life? No.

(0:57:50) 6a/b? JLP: Only weak people have morals. (0:58:08) Southern gal: I think I know what you’re saying.

(0:58:23) Joel: Context. Could be misinterpreted. … 6c? Apocalypse Now reference to Viet Cong

(0:59:36) 6d JLP: Weak people are immoral/moral? No such thing as a strong moral person. It’s all an act. All fake. No morals. The person who is moral will turn on you… Gossip, etc…

(1:00:57) 6e … Controlled by fear. Gift you don’t want. Smile when you really don’t want to.

(1:02:03) You don’t really wanna talk; you wish they’d go away.

7 Need certain pleasantries?

(1:02:46) Don’t you think there’s a need for certain pleasantries in life? (1:04:57) I say thank you for holding the door. Acknowledgement, the right thing to do. How you were raised: Taught. How do you know what I’m gonna say? (1:05:54) “There’s a Jesse answer.” … No, that was a question.

(1:07:39) If I baked you a cake.

8 Let the person in front in… More feedback… Homeless man

(1:08:53) Man let a car go through, and the person didn’t give the hand wave. Did you let them in to get a thank you?

(1:09:59) Like the shopping cart… Ten Commandments

(1:11:03) A way to communicate, says Southern gal… a way to communicate that you’re not a threat.

(1:11:59) Giving money to a homeless guy… stopped myself. (1:13:02) 8d: JLP: Totally ignore the homeless man, next time. Don’t judge them. Just ignore them.

9 JLP: Minute-to-minute daily fears

(1:13:36) 8e: JLP: Story on child support. Ex-husband on child support. First thing he went into: Pity! Making up excuses! Mind always giving reasons… Afraid to sit next to a stranger. Someone takes your seat… Your fear controls you.

(1:15:39) Minute-to-minute daily fears that control your life.

(1:17:07) 1800s book: Human beings are enslaved by their morality. You judge yourself. And you judge others who don’t live by your enslaved morality!

10 More feedback: Catering to homeless; Thank you cards

(1:18:00) Gal on politeness, signs: Don’t give money to homeless, say no to solicitors. It’s the better thing… JLP: Society’s done a disservice catering to homeless people (1:19:01) Homeless people so nasty, don’t care… Karen Bass always talking about the “unhoused.” … They’ll leave the trash out on the ground. They’re being spoiled, and getting worse and worse. The people doing it are evil, and the homeless.

(1:20:39) Another gal: Politeness … Resentful over being expected to send “Thank you” cards. I stopped. Then they judged me when I stopped!

(1:22:39) JLP: If parents never taught their children to say thank you, they’d eventually say it. Enslaved morality.

(1:23:21) Kat agrees…. JLP: The world will turn on you if you don’t follow their morality. Gal says: You think you’re a good person.

(1:24:05) Human nature being evil… I’d control people’s emotions with my writing… My mom wanted me to write up stuff on Facebook… She printed a comment out and framed it!

(1:26:06) Franky: The thank you thing, all that cr—p… Kids would brighten up. Mother: “Say thank you!” The mother poisoned it!

(1:27:05) Man: It’s weakness to be polite. Is there strength in humanity? No.

11 Weak people. Christmas presents? Real vs polite. Friendships?

(1:27:24) JLP: It’s a shame how weak we are. It’s pathetic. The truth is hidden from us.

(1:28:55) Should we not exchange Christmas presents? I think presents are ridiculous. (Cusses) I get a bunch of stuff I don’t need.

(1:30:46) 11c Hake: People are more at-ease around someone who’s real than someone who’s polite, fake, nice, compulsively polite. You don’t have to put out energy.

(1:31:37) Kat: In England, people are less expressive. … Maintaining good friendships? Let them be.

12 Ideas and opinions hate God

11e: JLP: Ideas and opinions hate God. (1:33:36) … Idea about God? … Nothing good in human beings, period. … No love…

(1:37:28) Stop judging someone good or bad based on something they did or said. Nothing good in human beings.

(1:38:06) 12c All angry people blame you for their anger. It’s in you, DUMMY! (laughter) … You must be born again.

(1:40:20) 12d: What people say about one another, when one’s not around. They say stuff your enemy wound’t say!

(1:41:27) 12e? Don’t trust human beings! … When you die — you must die. You change it simply by seeing it!

(1:42:22) 12f: Christ said… We can be just like him. Nothing but love. Can’t do good and think you’re good. You have to be good. Heart must change.

13 JLP on BQ: No self to pay attention to!

(1:44:38) Why do you pay attention to yourself? It’s insane. No self to pay attention to! Nobody to make better!

(1:46:07) Human beings don’t want to believe they’re not a sinner. That God wiped away all their sins! … Nothing to work on! …

Any Q’s? That help a little bit? (1:48:34) Let people attack you. Let them not want to be married to you. Let them gossip.

14 Practical manners? More Q’s: See it. Overcome your hell.

(1:51:38) There’s a practical side of manners… Practical manners?

(1:54:00) See it, but not work on it? Seeing it, there’s nothing to do about it. You can’t!

(1:56:17) Purpose of life? Overcome your hell.

15 Stop thinking. Catch yourself having opinions, ideas

(1:58:30) JLP: Encourage you to stop thinking. About God, etc, other people, self… Drop all thoughts. God doesn’t care if you cut your body part off, you kill babies. The only thing God judges is the heart.

(1:59:27) ASSIGNMENT(?): Catch yourself judging everybody and everything.

(2:00:44) Practice being present.
