0:01 hi everyone welcome to my viral wisdom number 59. hi everyone happy to be here with you guys i'm on instagram and facebook streaming to both um with my viral wisdom number 59 it's dr shafadi hi guys how are you tell me where you're signing in from and where you are um which part of the world

0:33 you're from so i can i can just get a sense of where everyone is connecting from in this virtual space that we have right now our only means to connect and we have to make the best out of this so hi guys i see you signing in from toronto delhi hi erin from cypress good to see you all so

1:03 what i wanted to talk about today on day number 59 session number 59 of my viral wisdom is just like i i mentioned last time that if we cling to the baby in the uterus and don't allow the baby to enter the birth canal the the fetus to enter the birth canal then there will be no birth and using the same analogy you know when the the the fetus is within us in our womb

1:37 the womb is its home for nine months of percolation nine months off of cooking so to speak nine months of formation development and in those nine months amazing things happen no time is lost there is a lot of activity a lot of of inner metamorphosis of transformation nine

2:08 months we have not yet done nine months of this inner formation we have not endured nine months we have barely endured a good five six months and we are already going stock raving crazy after just six months maybe and what does this say to us what does this mean what this means is that we are unable to flow

2:39 with what life offers now whether it's a hoax whether there's a grand conspiracy run by bill gates so that we all use more computers at home who knows and on some level what does it really matter as if the matrix wasn't a big grand hoax before this as if things were amazing and perfect and organized and sane and wise i mean let's

3:11 have no delusion it was a show before and it's another version of a show right now to put it plainly so let's not pretend like the old was amazing and that now you've discovered that there's some grand hoax going on the truth is this we didn't know then and we don't know now this is the truth of it all you and i sitting here certainly can't get the whole story but

3:43 the thing is this we're not ever meant to get the whole story we're not we're meant to get wisdom not from facts we're always meant to get wisdom from nature the facts of life you know in terms of what are what are the the true uh objective realities of say this coronavirus or say you know the the climate change or um whether the earth is tilting or

4:14 not those things are always up for more information to be had because they are man against physical world you know and then there is man against man world so man against physical world man against man between those two we will never get the full picture and wisdom doesn't come from getting data about the full picture you know and that's what religion tries

4:44 to do religion tries to give us you know what science doesn't know how the world was formed we know how the world was created let us tell you how the world was created and every religion tries its own desperate way of telling us according to us the world was created this way and then the hindus have another philosophy and then the you know it's just our inability to understand that we are never meant to get the whole

5:12 data because data is not where wisdom lies data is great until there's more data and then there's more data you know the earth was flat till it was round great wisdom and power and joy will not come from chasing data wisdom and joy and power will come from the most obvious place of all

5:43 that we are missing because it's too obvious from living life in its business and the only thing that lives life in its business is nature and for nature you don't have to be a grand old cosmo cosmologist or scientist or archaeologist or archivist no you just need to observe nature and nature will tell you very clearly the basics to live a wise empowered life

6:15 nature will tell you there is no attachment to your form everything is impermanent everything is in transition letting go is the only way don't attach to a thing because we all die the only moment is now now do you need to be a scientist to get these truths from nature no the reason why we don't get these truths from nature is because they are too uncomfortable who wants to live with

6:45 the constant awareness that we may die so we're like f that let's pretend like nature didn't teach us that from day one and let's go looking for some other truth there is no other truth to be had who cares if the coronavirus is a hoax or not it really doesn't matter it doesn't make you wiser or not to figure that out what makes you wiser is to begin to live your life without a hoax is to begin to live your

7:15 life without conspiracy and guile and deceit and lies that's the truth so whether you send your kid to a physical public school or you keep your kid at home whether you go out there and you are talking at a conference hall or you're talking from a computer whether you have a job or you don't ultimately those vagrancies of life are only the surface elements of life ultimately you are still going to be confronted

7:46 with the one element that you may have been choosing to avoid all along and that element is you and that element is unchanging it doesn't go away it doesn't it doesn't leave whether your kid goes to college and never comes home or your kid never leaves home heaven help us and never goes to college right it doesn't matter you still have to live with you and that is what nature always will tell you that when the tree

8:16 loses its branches or when whether the tree is filled with fruit the tree still is the tree that has to stay with itself and until its roots are firmly planted in the ground it doesn't matter whether it's bearing fruit or not that is what gives it its foundation the roots not the fruit so here we are we're only focused on the fruit meaning we're only focused on the image on the idea on the story you know on the noise on

8:47 the data you know it doesn't matter because ultimately when this essence is disconnected from within that is the real trauma that is the real hoax that is the first conspiracy against the self so just like the baby doesn't protest the infant doesn't protest needing nine months to be information why are we not understanding

9:20 that we need at least 19 months in formation because we have been so negligent to our inner calling to our inner alignment to our inner awakening so why are we panicking now now i'm not saying there's nothing to panic about because if i got corona today i'd be panicked if my loved one died and some have died i was in a panic i am in a panic no doubt but i'm aware that these panics

9:52 are about surface transient factors of my life because being ill or not is a fact of life it's it's it's an indisputable irrevocable reality of life i will be ill one day you and i will get this thing called the corona we will be knocked out and then we will die whether we die today or we die 50 years from now that is not the point the point is now okay right now right now are you

10:21 blissful right if you're you know the cliche every teacher wisdom teacher will tell you what if this was your last day to live you're like oh then i'd be you know living it so fully i'll be going and loving everybody and hugging everybody and telling them how much i love them okay did you do that today half the day is up have you done that are you blissful are you joyful are you sharing and spreading love and

10:45 connection and and peace and harmony well obviously not because you've been mired you've been mired in the form of life you've been mired in the surface vagrancies of life whether the data is correct whether the politician said the truth whether your kid will go back to school or not and for how long that form aspect of life is where we've been trapped is where we've been consumed and their lies are suffering you know

11:18 harmony and peace and joy and transcendence will never be found on the facts of the data because facts keep changing you know depends on who's reporting medicine keeps changing science keeps evolving and it is it is meant to because ultimately none of us have the whole picture about the whole we all just have a piece of it so if we all just have a piece of it can we just make peace with that and just relent and surrender

11:50 to the not knowing must we all act all of fishes and then if we all don't know and no one really knows the whole thing why don't we just air on the side of caution yeah so you know it's like i don't know for sure when when my when my baby was uh in my belly i don't know for sure sure if you kicked me whether that would harm the baby but i'm not gonna take a chance correct so i'm

12:16 like you stay away from me and when my baby was born i'm not sure sure that if you had a cold and you sneezed on my baby if it would give my baby pneumonia i'm not sure sure but i didn't want to take a chance so i told the guests who had pneumonia or coals or fevers to stay the hell away from my baby yes because i aired on the side of caution but i wasn't sure sure so since you're

12:45 not sure sure why don't we all just err on the side of caution this doesn't mean i'm taking i'm advocating that your rights be taken away and your autonomy go away and that i'm you merging with the crowd you know no i'm just saying air on the side of freaking caution i mean i can't believe we're having debates about airing on the side of caution for the sake of the babies in the world for the sake of the older people in the

13:14 world for the sake of the fragile you know we don't mess around with this we show that we care for those out there who maybe compromise even if we are in the best physical position or strength this is humanity this is interdependence this is interconnection this is compassion you know you put yourself in a little distress just to be careful we did this with our babies why don't you do it with the world's babies the elderly the

13:43 the fragile anyway the point is that i see how we are getting lost in the form of it because we are uncomfortable because we are distressed because we are now on the precipice of fear like we've never been because we are forced you know the arrow of death is spearing out buttocks okay it's like i could kill you any moment you know where before we had a nice padding we're like oh death is far away it isn't going to

14:15 touch me now the arrow is like up our ass and we're so nervous we're like oh this hurts and because it hurts and because we are uncomfortable with the pain we're projecting this on to everyone and anybody first the president so poor chap he's suffering so much so much projection you know no i'm i'm being tongue in cheek but it's the truth because that fool doesn't know anything either right

14:45 where are we thinking that he should know and we already knew who he was so why would he know right but it's whether it's him or the brazilian prime minister or the indian prime minister or the chinese who cares it doesn't matter don't look to your politicians to rescue you out of this mess this is the wild wild west truly you know and it always was though it was just disguised in the illusion of knowing no one knew

15:14 no priest knows right ask your priests you know to talk to their god to to ask hello when is this going to end call your psychics and your astrologers and your gurus and your chart readers or whatever not to put astrologers down here some of my dear friends are astrologers but all i'm saying is that there is no knowing knowing okay you can have a hunch you can have a guess you can have a guesstimate but this

15:40 virus has shown us there is no knowing there is no knowing because there was never meant to be any knowing so anyone who sold you that they knew were lying through their teeth but it's not their fault the ones who believed that those who were selling the truth were selling the truth they're the gullible fools as in we are the audience is the gullible ones not the ones on stage because the audience has the power to

16:07 leave but no we've been believing everything that's been told to us from the pulpits and the stages and the podiums and now we're angry no there's nothing to be angry about they never knew we gave them the the power to be the ones in the knowing there is no knowing the only knowing is to know there is no knowing the only knowing is to understand that until you align yourself with nature the truth of nature the truth of reality

16:37 in nature the reality as it is only then you discover the illusions of life right and until you get there and then when you get there it's a severely disorienting process i call it no woman's land no man's land then you're severely crushed and crumbling because all your egoic delusions of knowing are in cinders and ashes and embers at your feet but that's when freedom begins because

17:08 you begin to live in an entirely different way you don't live in your ego in the delusion that i know and my people know and mine are better than yours and my church my synagogue my temple my gurudwara better than yours all those ideological idiocies go away because you realize that nobody knows and i was looking for the knowing on the outside of me and the knowing on the outside of me is an illusion

17:40 so it isn't trump's fault only so much it isn't anyone's fault only so much it's ours right we have abdicated our power we have given our truth we have given our wisdom away to people who are only people only human only fallible the system is now clearly broken it was always broken but our veils did not let us see it our veils

18:12 were so brightly painted that they covered the fissures the the fissures and the and the gaps and the crevices because we had really psychedelic lenses you know so we're like oh there are no cracks in the in the system you know because our kaleidoscope through which we were looking the jagged colors the colorful we made it so colorful full of glittering diamonds you know we filled it up with so many things so we didn't have to see the cracks and

18:41 now we haven't been able to go buy new kaleidoscopes and new sunglasses and we're just in our pajamas we're not not even wearing a pair of jeans forget forget fancy clothes and our rolex watches and now all of a sudden we're like the emperor has no clothes like really the system is broken oh my god no one knows what they're doing america is actually backward scientists have no clue the president is an ignoramus for the most part

19:10 don't mind me oh my goodness we act as if this is a revelation and now we're in deep depression we're like oh my goodness there is no mother and father out there i am an abandoned child i'm orphaned right and how we're in shock we can't believe it we're like oh my goodness yeah you know what the problem is the problem is not in the outside this always was always will be a show it's a total game it's a total joke it's

19:38 like hilarious it's always been we're really funny we're really really also not so smart but this has always been the case the only difference is that our glasses are not being we can't go to the store to buy new glasses and now our glasses are breaking and we're like oh the system is broken oh no the system is not broken the glasses are now breaking to make you see the cracks that were already there you understand

20:05 so i know this is very depressing for many people because they were living in a bubble and the bubble was like we are good we live especially americans americans were so happy we're like we are americans you know we know we are the the ruling class here we we are the on the forefront of science and advancement and enlightenment and i say this so with compassion because i thought that too i came running to america from india

20:33 salivating for salvation but then i discovered very quickly that i was running away from myself so this is just a beautiful wake-up call to our own adulthood you know teenagers go through this i've said this before teenagers when they entered their 13th 14th year and then they look at their parents and they're like were you always this stupid like no

21:06 were you always so slow so backward so primitive so stuck in the 1920s no no you know and they go through this depression they go through this complete disillusionment right because they can't believe that their parents are their parents when they so idolize their parents and they're like you can barely oh now i see what you do

21:37 at 10 o'clock at night now i see that your little you know peg that you take at seven becomes ten pegs i see that you you're you're you lost ten jobs and you didn't tell me i see now that you're a gambling addict i see right oh my goodness mom and dad you really argue a lot you know i how did i miss all this you know oh because i used to go to sleep so early i missed the the real show

22:04 and so the teenagers begin to realize and that's what's happening to us we are waking up from our childhood stupor so to speak and we are realizing that humanity is just humanity you know humans are just humans this world is run by humans people you know humans some humans think they have a special dial up to the almighty and that gives us some comfort that some people are more pure and they have like some special connection

22:29 but they're not helping us right now special connection is not working either you know we're praying really hard we're like i was vegetarian you know i i didn't eat chocolate i didn't watch porn you know and please can i have a special connection it isn't working this virus is like we don't care we don't care if you're vegan we don't care if you've never won far you are going to suffer the same fate as those who

22:56 want leather shoes all their life and you're like what i haven't eaten meat for like 20 years i've given up meat and i am going to get the same virus what the hell right so no special favors are working here you know nothing is working and this is a this is a travesty sorry i i'm in some mood today because i'm just finding this funny i'm sorry so you're seeing my sarcastic side come out because it's it's just

23:22 to me a little bit funny because i'm seeing the shock of people when i've been shocked for the past third you know since i woke up at 21 only 26 years ago so i was shocked then i'm like now why why are people shocked this is this is this is the game of life this is the the greed the corruption the ego the fear-mongering now we're seeing it because we can't rush out to the next broadway show

23:52 we can't go buy tickets to barbados we can't go on our cruise ship and think we're just in some bubble on an ocean we can't even get on a freaking plane to run away from our problems we can't even leave our children for five minutes we're stuck with the same partner in the house we are stuck home you know the bubble is not we we're in it and it's it's it's too much now we want other

24:12 bubbles and we can't go to other bubbles so this is the issue and we can't run away and the only way to run the only place to run the only escape now is in the reality realization that there is no escape there is no place to run this is it now we have to go within we have to go inside and begin to understand how we have been living masked all along you know it's funny

24:42 that people are protesting that they don't want to wear masks i'm not starting a debate here please don't have a debate on my page because i don't care about whether you wear a mask or not except that it could kill many elderly and frail people but you know if you don't want to have that on your conscience your choice that's not my point my point is people are protesting wearing masks but the real truth is that we have been

25:07 living masked live lives all along we have been living masked all along we've been living inauthentic all along we've been wearing masks on the inside forever who are we kidding so now we we don't want to wear this mask what about the inner masks what about the ways we've been duplicitous and deceiving and lying to our authentic cells all along what about that what about protesting that that's the real fight that's the real protest if you want to take off your

25:37 masks those are the masks we need to be taking off the mask of separation the masks of i am i'm a jew and you're a buddhist and you're a catholic and you're a christian and you're a fun whatever lutheran these are masks that keep us from each other i am american your french your german geographical mask religious masks all these masks of ideology that keep us separate from each other let's take out those masks before we we

26:07 care about these masks that could save a few million people maybe you know this is this is where we have been living falls and not realizing it and now it's been maybe in america a dismal six-month attempt to settle in and hunker down and be within ourselves and we can't even do this right but yet anything worth birthing anything worth creating anything i'm writing my next book i it's only

26:38 taken me a year and a half and i'm still got another six months left i don't protest writing a book for two years why because i know that anything worth its salt takes time to form takes time to develop takes time to percolate so why are we protesting people this is humanity's time to go inward to percolate to sit to wither down to crumble down so we can form up again

27:08 right to to to go into our ashes so then we can rise as the phoenix right to use the most obvious analogy so the phoenix rises from the ashes what does that mean the ashes that that there was a death there was a crumbling there was a withering there was a uh falling down a falling into before there was a rise and and we just want the rise without the falling it doesn't that's not authentic so we cannot bypass the

27:39 the smithereens we cannot bypass the destruction we cannot bypass the falling of the old structures for new to arrive for a revolution to take place a great demolishing has to occur a grand destruction a an epic um dismantling of the old before the new so we are now witnessing the grand epic crumbling

28:12 of old egoic structures politically racially religiously educationally financially emotionally right we can't meet our friends anymore we can't go out anymore so we are like who are my friends who am i who am i without i can't spend as much i can't travel as much all my accessories have been taken from me i'm now seeing the political party for

28:45 what it is i'm seeing the religious institutions for what they are hopefully right this is the invitation to now see things without the old kaleidoscopic lenses that have actually kept you blind that have kept you in in a blissful stupor maybe but completely disconnected in a coma so now you can't go replace your glasses because all the shops are closed so to speak this is a good thing because now you're going to see the cracks on the wall you're going to see

29:16 the fissures and you're going to see the the seismic ruptures in your foundation and yes it's scary and because you're scared when we're scared we displace and we project and how do we do it through control so in this case we think we know what the data is or we control what other people think and we control this and we control that because we're deeply anxious right now we're like oh no right we are like five-year-old

29:47 children and there is no adult in sight good time for the child to grow up so the child is not going through adolescence where the child is only saying all the time because the teenager has no other words right because the teenager is realizing how dysfunctional his parents are and what a messed up world they live in and the teenager is going like how did i get here and how do i get out see the only apropos word is a four

30:14 letter word however once the teenager realizes that it needs to get its act together earn some money adapt be creative because the parents are ineffectual and the teenager needs to pack their bags and leave this town and go to another town metaphorically speaking then we begin to grow up the teenager has to become an adult that has to grow up it is our reckoning now okay we were children

30:44 now we've gone through the teenage phase of absolute shock and disillusionment going what the hell who are my parents and realizing parents are alcoholic parents are depressed parents are completely ineffectual parents are wasted sleeping on the sofa not waking up parents are binge walking watching netflix and they're completely running amok okay then the teenager realizes okay now it's time to grow up so now it's our time to grow up now we

31:16 we've been through the transitions time to wake up and go okay i got to take this ship into my own hands i need to take this wheel into my hands and what that means is what do i need to do to to change my life right now i can't wait for any system on the outside i can't even wait for the schools even if the school's open and i'm like show-offing to my friends on facebook oh

31:39 really your schools in your district are not open mine are open my kid is going to school even if you rub your hands and glee don't count on that to last they could be coming back right away right so don't get used to that delicious prospect that your kids are going back to school for a good year no so this is it now what do we do in this reality how are we going to take care of ourselves how are

32:03 we going to adapt how are we going to rise up how are we going to show up who are we going to show up as this is where you become yourself advocate where you become your your reigning queen and king you become your functional parent you become your governing body right this is self-reliance you enter compassion you enter love you enter interconnectedness you enter the spaces that you long to see on the outside because you have the power to enter that

32:35 you can become all the things you need you think that you need it and you can't become it no you can become all the things that you need so whatever you need on the outside you're like i really i really need the president to tell me that this is going to be okay give it to yourself i really need the schools to to last longer so my kid can be there so i can feel okay give that okayness to yourself this is a

33:01 call to you developing all the aspects of humanity that you believe are on the outside of you they are on the inside of you whatever is outside and that you think you can get from the outside trust me you can get it from the inside but you have to develop that capacity you have to believe in that you have to want that for yourself this is the end of dependency this is the end of childish passivity

33:27 this is the end of waiting for the prince to come no one's coming no one's coming on the horizon virus is there viruses is the only sure thing right now right but understand the virus is the war of today in the last election it was the the terrorists remember there were terrorists they were the plague they were the bacteria that were going to kill us and the virus that was going to get us remember that was the ticket ben now the

33:56 new ticket is the pandemic another five years it will be something else do not be fooled by the ticket of today that's not what's going to take you to the ultimate destination the ultimate destination is going to only be arrived through traveling inward this is the call this is the mandate take it or leave it this is the only place that you have to start at and end that you your connection with yourself your power within yourself your worth

34:27 your connection to nature your connection to your connection to it all it's all you your happiness while certainly can be assisted by people such as the president it cannot be controlled by him or her your joy while certainly can be aided and abetted by a better economy cannot be given to that place to rest it lies within you you are your own universe you can

34:57 access your own joy irrespective of the external world and that's the place that is yours that is private it can never go away from you it's always within you it's up for your grabs it's up for your taking you need to access it and you need to discover it thank you all for listening to my viral wisdom i will see you when i see you

Summary

In this session of "Viral Wisdom," Dr. Shafali discusses the importance of inner growth and self-awareness during challenging times, using the metaphor of a fetus needing nine months to develop before birth. She emphasizes that true wisdom comes from understanding nature and our own inner selves rather than seeking external validation or data.

- The process of personal growth requires time and patience, similar to a fetus developing in the womb.
- We often cling to outdated beliefs and systems, failing to recognize that they were never perfect.
- Wisdom is derived from nature and our inner experiences rather than from external facts or data.
- The current global crisis serves as a wake-up call to confront our inner truths and the illusions we've lived under.
- We must learn to live without dependency on external authorities or systems for our happiness and well-being.
- The pandemic highlights our interconnectedness and the need for compassion towards others, especially the vulnerable.
- True empowerment comes from self-reliance and nurturing our inner strength rather than seeking validation from the outside world.
- This moment is an opportunity for personal transformation and a chance to rise from the ashes of old beliefs and structures.
