Antoinette Villamil, Director of Many Mothers programs helping mothers with newborn babies.

Richard, you should take some wisdom from another Comedian, Red Skelton: "Why do we all rush around our whole lives trying to be on time… When you die they call you 'late' anyway."

It’s the very denominational paths that can often destroy any notion of what the creator is and could be. Catholic protestant muslim hindu atheist pagan on n on its just all bs. If we need to connect with source and the great mystery of earth life, go sit in the dark forests 🌳 alone in quietude and LISTEN. Stop talking please - human noise. Peace. ✌️

Thank you. It was a wonderful way to spend Holy Saturday!

Are you in LA?

Wow, this was amazing. I also loved your ad at the end about money management.....making money a force for good. At some point baby boomers are going to recognize that our next steps in life out of our individual homes and into independent living/retirement homes/communities need our collective attention because what exists right now does not work for the residences/stakeholders. Collectively, baby boomers will be in need of moving into retirement homes before we know it. What we have right now is similar to unsustainable investing. If we start getting conscious and want to take action before we have to go into these places, we will be far better off. Let's talk about this.

Thank you all! I wish Many Mothers was nationwide! Why is it so unheard of in the obstetrics field?!!

I use to live in Santa Fe and Espanola and I hope you help families in that area in the Espanola Valley.

To be non-dualistic you guys are awfully anti-conservative. Vaccines for children???? Smh

Thankyou =) Bless you.

Thank you for sharing this lovely and thoughtful conversation.

Thanks! Could we get a part 2 please Doug?

'In my deepest wound, I saw your blessing' This stays with me How blessed we are to share these words and let them unspeakable penetrate our being; God 🙏🧎‍♀️🤸‍♀️🕊

When your screwed up for not a great childhood , some people can actually change the blueprint….. an awful lot actually in my experience! Out of something bad can come something great . ❤

So Brene Brown led me to Father Richard. KZbin search took me to some crazy videos talking mad stuff about him. This video is a breath of fresh air.

In regard to Richard being over concerned about time in that he nevers wants to be late: Perhaps it is simply 'a movement of the mind' (a kind of reaction to a stimulus) to avoid totally acknowledging the felt-sense of not wanting to ever be late. (A common phrase is: "Lord, I'll face anything besides this.") Also at that moment we can recognize that there will be a yet to be fully noticed tightening in the bodily felt sense of presence. And there will be a corresponding yet to be fully noticed change in the rhythm or pattern of the breath, a kind of slight holding of the breath when the triggering situation (stimulus) hits our awareness. What does it mean to become comfortable with acknowledging and actually feeling the feeling of this feeling as it arises in certain situations rather than cutting off the experiencing that is trying to unfold or untwist itself. We cut off our present experiencing in favor of and by verbally labeling the arising experience from memory as 'this' or 'that' (some fixed concept from memory)? This can also be seen through the lens that we rarely non-verbally experience our experience as it is in itself. Ordinarily and especially at times of pressure or 'discomfort' we interfere with the unfolding of experience with some label from memory. In this sense we are dealing with a yet to be fully recognized state of mind. Such pockets of conditioning in the psyche when triggered need us to open and relax into whole body awareness and simply allow the flow of breath. The is a kind of gentle pause and is gentle allowing of the felt-sense of what seems to be arising. It is becoming familiar with the bodily felt sense that is arising at the time without simply retreating to the habitual territory of premature conceptualization. To say it another way, when the feeling-sense arises, it simply needs a further degree of open receptivity to allow it to untwist itself at the non-verbal felt sense level rather than remaining as a partially unconsciousness motivator. It is a motivator that when re-stimulated only partially surfaces because the we cant' tolerate it at the felt-sense level and so we quickly retreat to automatic memory that recalls it as this or that. The conditioning or uncleared shock is just below our present level of awareness; a kind of frozen conditioning yet to be cleared by gentle open awareness.This awareness or simple presence may react, yet the awareness is not completely caught up in the reaction and knows enough to relax into the tension/pressure of being 'triggered' and "drop in" to the felt sense of bodily presence and allow the on-going flow of breath. This kind of response can gradually allow the melting of conditioning or the various levels of shock in the psyche or 'electromagnetic field' of memory that contains these no longer needed motivators. Otherwise, these no longer needed conditionings or motivators remain to dictate our behavior as well as influence or color our perceptions and therefore our reactions to our life and the arising of its corresponding circumstances.

How refreshing - Thanks Douglas for bringing these beautiful and life-giving souls together and for their generous sharing.

So good, like a hug from above 🦋

Psalm 139 1:15:30 Body Shame. It is most acute in pre-adolescence and adolescence when it naturally morphs toward its full expression at age 26. God's love and plan is perfect though it may be judged to be imperfect. We are earthen vessels made with precision.preci

Wow. What a discussion of connectedness and forgiveness

(Wonderful video here’s my conservative opinion if you want to read it )The self is not god , in essence. God has energies and that is god and we can participate in those energies but it’ll always be distinct from the essence , to say we are gods is very different from saying you are god. We’re little gods when we follow god , we are NOT I repeat Not the essence of god , we are creature not creator , we are daughters of god.

Wow! I came across this discussion ‘by chance’! Needless to day, it was just what I needed to hear! Thanks to all concerned!

Stunning, in-spiring and transcendent.

Love seeing Mirabai and Richard in a conversation! How fun and meaningful!

This was so beautiful… loved every minute… Such relevant topics😘

Pete is such a beautiful soul

What a rich, generous hearted, wise, tender sharing. So touched to be witness to this round table sharing. 🧡✨❤️

It's funny how Richard gravitated to the 4/5/6 enneagram Merton and the self sufficient cistercians leading the contemplative movement Keating , Meninger , Boyle, Pennington when he says so many critical things about 5s . Penny pinching abstemious frugal farming life formation got him. 👌

Thank you for such raw, realistic discussion... it's a lot to digest being Catholic all my life. But, since I bumped into Richard Rohr's meditations as well Thomas Merton's books... I have learned to be more accepting, inclusive of everything that happens to me. & I must add, almost nakedly! God loves you all & thank you!

A man who says addiction is a pleasant journey does not know or understand addiction: it is a disease, a deadly disease of mental and spiritual illness, of spiritual bankruptcy. As an addict, i can say "addiction is hell", i.e. "the absence of God", hurtful to self and others and very unfulfilling. A life of service, of joy and beauty, of real fun, IS very fulfilling. And Julian is right. The kids for climate responsible action are right, doing their part to BE the inner universal Christ on earth. Interviewer is defending limitation and "stiff necked" stubbornness, to use words of Bible.

If we believe in the UNIVOCITY of being, wouldn’t the commandment “THOU SHALL NOT KILL” apply to animals and the sanctity of their being?

Jesus was asked by the Pharasis, “... what do we do about the poor?” Jesus said, “The poor will always be with us.” Was he being insightful, or was he ordaining an action into the future?

"Blessed are the rich. Woe be unto the poor." That non-sequitur Christ should have said.

Cmmmmnnmmmmmmmmn mnmnmnvnnnnnnnbmnmmbm mnmmmmmmmnnmmmmmmv

Thank you so much it was energising to hear such frank discussions about so many topical subjects. I’m now 82 but I wish I could have heard this when I was 20. Please keep up this holy work.

Jesus loves you ❤ 💖 💕 💗

GOD WITH YOU IN 2022 kzbin.info/www/bejne/ombLhGuClMpjaaM

Finally, a sensical voice that does not divide humans into different compartments, but sees humanity and creation as a whole.

Christ is consumer, capitalist and colonial not 'universal'.

The kingdom of heaven is like unto capitalism - for the benefit of a few.

Thank you from this broken heart. Holy Spirit brought your creative work to me just when I seemed broken whoops! Was broken by the hardest year of my life. Love for you today- blessings!

Never have to think about money. That's the trap of people who live inside Monastic houses. You never have to worry about where your food comes from. If you have to provide for a family is basic to our survival. So where is God in this? Observing poverty is debatable. Because you dont have to worry about where you live .

The most honest conversation ever broadcast. Thank God

Such honest questions & responses both from Fr. Richard Rohr & Doug Lynam! These types of conversations ought to be heard at least by the Christian community.(Hoping that they are kinder & compassionate!) Thank you... just what I needed to hear at this time of my life. God bless you both. May you be graced with more wisdom & understanding that will lead to solidarity (for we all are one!)& a world really full of kindness & love... ( i may sound naive & idealistic but I do & still is being stretched in growing & loving the best way I know how).

Thank you so much for this offering Doug! So helpful 🙏 - - Ariel

Excellent Doug.

Informative share, thank you. Do you offer courses in healing from financial wounds?

As much as I like Richard Rohr and his host, I felt that they was notenough discussion on the topic of money, God and spirituality!
