WEBVTT - You Only Have One Problem

0:00:04.809 --> 0:00:07.630
<v Speaker 1>You found your way here to waking up with Ryan.

0:00:08.630 --> 0:00:12.959
<v Speaker 1>I'm so glad that you pushed play. This is the

0:00:13.020 --> 0:00:16.960
<v Speaker 1>place you and I come to wake up together. So

0:00:17.579 --> 0:00:21.739
<v Speaker 1>let's take a deep breath and begin. Good morning, my love.

0:00:23.820 --> 0:00:26.779
<v Speaker 1>So as you know, this week, we're focused on you

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>remembering who you are, waking up to who you truly are.

0:00:32.450 --> 0:00:36.610
<v Speaker 1>And I want to share with you An idea that

0:00:36.830 --> 0:00:41.550
<v Speaker 1>may sound a little crazy at first. But stay with

0:00:41.610 --> 0:00:44.659
<v Speaker 1>me because this one idea changed everything for me.

0:00:47.280 --> 0:00:48.280
<v Speaker 2>It's the idea that.

0:00:48.240 --> 0:00:53.820
<v Speaker 1>You only ever have one problem. You think you have

0:00:53.940 --> 0:00:58.740
<v Speaker 1>so many problems, but you really only have one. And

0:00:58.770 --> 0:01:02.150
<v Speaker 1>I trust that as you sit there listening to me,

0:01:02.170 --> 0:01:08.319
<v Speaker 1>that you could... deliver a laundry list of all the

0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:13.650
<v Speaker 1>various and seemingly separate and different problems that you deal

0:01:13.690 --> 0:01:17.410
<v Speaker 1>with on a day-to-day basis. Whether it's problems with money

0:01:18.290 --> 0:01:21.850
<v Speaker 1>or an issue in your relationship or many issues in

0:01:21.870 --> 0:01:27.039
<v Speaker 1>your relationships. Maybe it's the problem in the thing that

0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:28.480
<v Speaker 1>you're worrying about with.

0:01:28.380 --> 0:01:31.200
<v Speaker 2>Your health, your job, your kids.

0:01:32.620 --> 0:01:36.720
<v Speaker 1>It feels like And of course, it seems like you

0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:42.060
<v Speaker 1>have hundreds of different problems and that those hundreds of

0:01:42.140 --> 0:01:48.140
<v Speaker 1>problems need hundreds of solutions. But what I've come to

0:01:48.250 --> 0:01:54.870
<v Speaker 1>deeply understand is that underneath every single problem is one problem,

0:01:56.130 --> 0:02:02.490
<v Speaker 1>which is your imagined separation from God. You really only

0:02:02.710 --> 0:02:07.500
<v Speaker 1>ever have one problem And that's your imagined separation from God.

0:02:09.580 --> 0:02:16.450
<v Speaker 1>It's the sense that you're alone in this, that you're

0:02:16.490 --> 0:02:19.830
<v Speaker 1>cut off, that you are left on your own to

0:02:19.990 --> 0:02:20.910
<v Speaker 1>figure it all out.

0:02:22.010 --> 0:02:23.310
<v Speaker 2>And that belief.

0:02:24.730 --> 0:02:28.690
<v Speaker 1>That you carry, that belief that has become so ingrained

0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:34.950
<v Speaker 1>in your thought process, that belief that you are separate

0:02:35.110 --> 0:02:39.810
<v Speaker 1>and cut off from this benevolent and loving universe is.

0:02:39.810 --> 0:02:44.570
<v Speaker 2>At the root of all of all the problems which

0:02:44.610 --> 0:02:47.350
<v Speaker 2>is why you really only have one problem.

0:02:49.750 --> 0:02:55.750
<v Speaker 1>Now why i think this is good news is because

0:02:55.810 --> 0:02:59.429
<v Speaker 1>if you only really have one problem then you only

0:02:59.490 --> 0:03:06.700
<v Speaker 1>really need one solution and it's only your mind.

0:03:07.500 --> 0:03:09.620
<v Speaker 2>That tells you that you have all.

0:03:11.020 --> 0:03:15.620
<v Speaker 1>Of these separate problems and your mind loves that because

0:03:15.700 --> 0:03:18.870
<v Speaker 1>what better way to keep you distracted from who you

0:03:18.910 --> 0:03:24.310
<v Speaker 1>truly are what better way to keep you busy playing

0:03:24.330 --> 0:03:32.030
<v Speaker 1>whack-a-mole in life as a way to distract you from

0:03:32.090 --> 0:03:34.000
<v Speaker 1>the essence of who you truly are.

0:03:35.410 --> 0:03:38.450
<v Speaker 2>This is what we talked about yesterday is who you

0:03:38.550 --> 0:03:39.550
<v Speaker 2>truly are.

0:03:40.930 --> 0:03:44.970
<v Speaker 1>Can and will only dawn on you. It will reveal

0:03:45.010 --> 0:03:49.250
<v Speaker 1>itself to you if you are willing to lay down

0:03:49.310 --> 0:03:52.620
<v Speaker 1>who you think you are, which is why the mind

0:03:52.700 --> 0:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>keeps you distracted in all of these seeming problems so

0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:03.420
<v Speaker 1>that you don't pause to remember, to be willing to remember.

0:04:04.230 --> 0:04:07.290
<v Speaker 2>It's how it keeps its ownership.

0:04:07.750 --> 0:04:12.190
<v Speaker 1>Over your awareness. And so you have all these problems

0:04:12.250 --> 0:04:14.580
<v Speaker 1>and what do you do? You try to solve it.

0:04:14.970 --> 0:04:16.800
<v Speaker 1>You try to solve this one. You try to solve

0:04:16.830 --> 0:04:20.360
<v Speaker 1>that one. And yeah, of course you solve something and

0:04:20.380 --> 0:04:22.979
<v Speaker 1>you feel okay for about a minute, but then what happens?

0:04:23.300 --> 0:04:24.320
<v Speaker 3>Another one pops up.

0:04:25.500 --> 0:04:27.539
<v Speaker 1>So you solve that one and then another one pops up.

0:04:27.580 --> 0:04:30.080
<v Speaker 1>And so you solve that one, all keeping you busy

0:04:30.580 --> 0:04:35.300
<v Speaker 1>away from the pausing for long enough To remember.

0:04:35.020 --> 0:04:35.580
<v Speaker 2>Who you are.

0:04:39.980 --> 0:04:46.620
<v Speaker 1>And so I'm here showing up in your life to

0:04:48.020 --> 0:04:51.510
<v Speaker 1>offer you and offer me a way out of that game.

0:04:53.170 --> 0:05:00.510
<v Speaker 1>A way out of the constant feeling of busyness and exhaustion.

0:05:01.790 --> 0:05:06.469
<v Speaker 1>Always trying to solve problems but never truly feeling free.

0:05:09.810 --> 0:05:13.909
<v Speaker 1>And the one solution to the one problem.

0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Is to come back.

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:18.080
<v Speaker 2>To return.

0:05:19.980 --> 0:05:29.670
<v Speaker 1>To remember. To remember that you are never separate.

0:05:32.170 --> 0:05:35.970
<v Speaker 2>You can't be. The moment.

0:05:37.210 --> 0:05:41.320
<v Speaker 1>That separation would actually occur, you would cease to exist.

0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:46.380
<v Speaker 2>What would charge your batteries? What would give you life

0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.900
<v Speaker 2>force to move through the world? What turns on the

0:05:49.980 --> 0:05:55.910
<v Speaker 2>lights and keeps them running? If you were separate from that,

0:05:57.470 --> 0:06:05.990
<v Speaker 2>your existence would cease. You cannot ever be separate. But

0:06:06.010 --> 0:06:09.109
<v Speaker 2>we have to choose to remember that oneness.

0:06:10.740 --> 0:06:17.260
<v Speaker 1>Until we've practiced it enough for it to become sustained.

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:26.540
<v Speaker 1>So let's do just that. As we gently close our

0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:40.940
<v Speaker 1>eyes and take a few deep breaths together You think

0:06:40.980 --> 0:06:45.400
<v Speaker 1>you have so many problems, but you really only have one.

0:06:47.540 --> 0:06:58.049
<v Speaker 1>And that is your imagined separation from God. So sitting

0:06:58.089 --> 0:07:06.810
<v Speaker 1>and allowing yourself to sink into that eternal link, the

0:07:06.930 --> 0:07:16.480
<v Speaker 1>eternal connection, unbroken, unbroken, always pulsing with life that you

0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:28.180
<v Speaker 1>have with this entire universe. Letting any imagination of separation

0:07:28.260 --> 0:07:33.790
<v Speaker 1>just fall away. It's just imagined. It cannot be true.

0:07:38.390 --> 0:07:42.440
<v Speaker 1>You are one with God. You are one with everything.

0:07:44.210 --> 0:07:49.050
<v Speaker 1>Take a deep breath and let it go.

0:08:37.140 --> 0:08:48.530
<v Speaker 4>In closing, you only ever have one problem.

0:08:48.650 --> 0:09:04.050
<v Speaker 3>Under everything, all other seeming problems is only one, which

0:09:04.170 --> 0:09:16.740
<v Speaker 3>is the imagination, your imagined separation from God, which means

0:09:16.780 --> 0:09:20.579
<v Speaker 3>you actually don't have any problems, or I should say,

0:09:21.660 --> 0:09:23.559
<v Speaker 3>which means that one problem.

0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:24.200
<v Speaker 2>Is already solved.

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:32.739
<v Speaker 1>Because this eternal link, this eternal holding of you by

0:09:32.780 --> 0:09:39.540
<v Speaker 1>this universe can never be interrupted, can never cease, no

0:09:39.580 --> 0:09:47.589
<v Speaker 1>matter how strong your imagination is. Rest into that peace today.

0:09:49.830 --> 0:09:56.130
<v Speaker 1>Let's take one more deep breath in. And let it go.

0:09:58.660 --> 0:10:03.560
<v Speaker 3>Okay blinking your eyes open as you're ready.

0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:14.089
