28

: 00:01:14

29

: 00:01:15

maybe our second it's our second week here in Mexico

30

: 00:01:22

31

: 00:01:25

today is the 24th hmm

32

: 00:01:29

so it's the third going into the third week yeah

33

: 00:01:32

we've been staying at our good friend Carlos in in CDMX

34

: 00:01:37

Mexico City

35

: 00:01:38

and we made a little getaway on a bus up here

36

: 00:01:41

and we're visiting all these incredible churches

37

: 00:01:44

dedicated to various saints

38

: 00:01:45

they're like one church next to the other yeah

39

: 00:01:48

and the whole place obviously

40

: 00:01:49

from the last 500 years has been built up around uh

41

: 00:01:54

keeping um

42

: 00:01:55

the church and religion at its focus

43

: 00:01:58

and there's certainly

44

: 00:01:58

a great deal of economy that spills out from that

45

: 00:02:01

as well so

46

: 00:02:06

a lot of fruits markets juices

47

: 00:02:11

mangoes papayas

48

: 00:02:13

61

: 00:02:34

there's a great deal of incredible salsas here

62

: 00:02:37

every day on the table is a roha salsa

63

: 00:02:40

a red salsa and a Verde salsa

64

: 00:02:43

a green salsa so although in our

65

: 00:02:46

in our in our practice

66

: 00:02:49

we try to limit the amounts of passionate

67

: 00:02:51

regressive heating foods the chillies can be good for

68

: 00:02:55

we both had a cold so that's really good

69

: 00:02:57

and um yeah the

70

: 00:03:00

the people in Mexico have just been very warm

71

: 00:03:02

and accommodating found earth friendly

72

: 00:03:05

and the whole place is just kind of buzzing

73

: 00:03:07

74

: 00:03:09

and everybody's sweet and kind

75

: 00:03:11

a few bark no one's bitten so far

82

97

: 00:03:55

you know

98

: 00:03:56

the reason we don't do comments and stuff like that

99

: 00:03:58

is because there's just so much bad uh

100

: 00:04:01

arguments going on in the world

101

: 00:04:03

just trying to keep it real mellow and simple

102

: 00:04:04

103

104

: 00:04:09

magic dot com that's J U I C

105

: 00:04:10

y m a g I k dot com and uh

106

: 00:04:15

we'll see you there how we go

107

: 00:04:16

can we share a transcendental truth please

108

: 00:04:19

let's do that I read something really interesting

109

: 00:04:23

and I wanna share it

110

: 00:04:24

make sure you speak clearly and loudly yeah

111

: 00:04:26

philosophy without religion is mental speculation

112

: 00:04:32

dry mental speculation or fanaticism no

113

: 00:04:35

no and no and no religion

114

: 00:04:37

religion without philosophy is often uh

115

: 00:04:40

yes can lead to fanaticism and it is often um

116

: 00:04:44

sort of it's

117

: 00:04:45

it's it doesn't have the fullness that it could have

118

: 00:04:48

so yeah that really struck me

119

: 00:04:51

so philosophy and religion go hand in hand actually

120

: 00:04:54

and I know people like say oh

121

: 00:04:56

I'm not religious I'm spiritual

122

: 00:04:57

well you can't be spiritual without being religious

123

: 00:05:00

the two are synonymous actually

124

: 00:05:02

you really have to understand

125

: 00:05:03

what the true meaning of religion is

126

: 00:05:05

and what real religion is

127

: 00:05:07

so that you can understand what it is to be spiritual

128

: 00:05:09

what is spirituality

129

: 00:05:10

and we're gonna be covering more of that on our trip

130

: 00:05:13

as we go along to make things simple and clear

131

: 00:05:15

and of course with reference to our wonderful uh

132

: 00:05:18

instructing guru and also our uh

133

: 00:05:21

initiating guru and also our Sampadaya

134

: 00:05:24

our disciple succession of course

135

: 00:05:26

using Shastra scripture

136

: 00:05:28

and always confirming with the Lord in the heart

137

: 00:05:30

through sincere prayer that's the

138

: 00:05:32

you're always protected if you have Guru

139

: 00:05:33

Shastra and karma and the Lord in the heart

140
