1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,440 Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio and welcome back to Coast to Coast, George Nori 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 1: with you. Lynn McTaggart as the award winning author of 4 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 1: a number of books, including the worldwide bestsellers The Field, 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: The Intention Experiment, and the Power of Age. She is 6 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: also the co founder of the international health magazine What 7 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,160 Speaker 1: Doctors Don't Tell You, and is the architect of The 8 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 1: Intention Experiments, a web based global laboratory that tests the 9 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: power of intention to heal the world. Lynn, we need 10 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 1: more of that. Welcome back. Hi, dear George, It's great 11 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: to be here with you. How have you been. I 12 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: have been just great. It's been about a year working 13 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: on some new things. How did you get involved in 14 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: this field of intention? I got involved basically by accident. 15 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: I was an investigative reporter and I was minding my 16 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: own business and writing about health. We had started a 17 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: newsletter back in nineteen ninety called What Doctors Don't Tell You, 18 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: And in the course of researching what works and what 19 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:19,479 Speaker 1: doesn't work in medicine, we kept coming across very good 20 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: studies of spiritual healing, and I kept thinking to myself, wait, 21 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: a minute. If we have a thought and send it 22 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: to someone else to make them better, that undermines everything 23 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: we think about how the world works. So as a result, 24 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: I wanted to find out why this was going on. 25 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: So I interviewed a lot of frontier scientists and physicists, biologists, 26 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: all of those kinds of people, and discovered each of them, 27 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: people like the late Robert John of Princeton the Pair 28 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: Research Center and how put off the famous physicists and 29 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: asters physicists, and many many others who have now passed on. 30 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: And what I discovered is that each of them had 31 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: a tiny piece of what compounded into a completely new 32 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: view of the world. After I finished that book, there 33 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: was some leftover business. Many of them had done really 34 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: good experiments demonstrating that thoughts are things that affect other things. 35 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: And so, being the hard nosed journal that I am, 36 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: I wanted to find out how far we could take 37 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: this and also does it magnify if we have lots 38 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: of people doing intention in a group. And I figured 39 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: by them I knew a lot of these scientists, and 40 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: I also had lots of readers from the fields in 41 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,839 Speaker 1: thirty languages I've been So I thought if I put 42 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: them together, I'd have the biggest global laboratory in the world. 43 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: And so that's what happened. And back in two thousand 44 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: and seven I started the intention experiment. And now we've 45 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: done about forty one experiments to date and of those, 46 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:25,839 Speaker 1: forty one thirty seven have shown measurable positive, mostly significant effects. 47 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: What can you conclude at this time, then, when with 48 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: these results over sixteen years, what intention is? Well? Intention 49 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: is we have to understand that consciousness isn't locked inside 50 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: our heads. You know that our brains are much more 51 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: of an antenna receiver that we are picking up and 52 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: we are sending out, but it's not all housed in 53 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: our brain. And if consciousness is out there, and we 54 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: are energy systems and not just a batch of chemicals 55 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: and electrical signaling, or we are essentially affecting everything all 56 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: the time and not just when we do you know, 57 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: a very focused intention, but all of our thoughts and 58 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: we've got seventy thousand of them a day, all of 59 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: our thoughts are affecting our world too. And this isn't 60 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: something strange and you know and weird and esoteric. This 61 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: has been acknowledged by top physicists in fact, three of 62 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: them received the Nobel Prize last autumn for essentially demonstrating 63 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: non locality and some of the other weird aspects of physics. 64 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: So we're now saying the strange effects of quantum physics 65 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: that you know, when subatomic particles are once in contact, 66 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: move one to California and the other one to London, 67 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: and they're still in contact and affected by each other. 68 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: We're not saying that that is just the purview of 69 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: the quantum world anymore. We're now saying this is the 70 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: rule of all life. We're seeing big quantum effects in 71 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: the visible world, the sticks and stones world that we 72 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: live in. Even photosynthesis has to and relies on a 73 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: quantum effect. So what we understand now, as I said it, 74 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: thoughts are things that affect everything, and we are affecting 75 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: and co creating all the time. It is truly remarkable 76 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: and incredible how it works. And the fact that it 77 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: does work, isn't it? Oh? Yes? And I continue to 78 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: be stunned by it because and you know, this is 79 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: all these years later and all these experiments later, But 80 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: I've seen it in large groups and also small groups, 81 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: what I call the power of eight. I've seen so 82 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: many things. Most recently, we had a woman called Esther 83 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: who came to a retreat of ours and I put 84 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: people into power of eight groups in all of my work, 85 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: and she and her group did an intention in the 86 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: library of where we were in the stately home. We 87 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: were holding it in the stately home called Broughton Hall, 88 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 1: and she and her group had such a powerful intention 89 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: she believed that that was the impetus for what is 90 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: now healed from stage four cancer. So I've seen that. 91 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: I've seen people get up out of their wheelchairs. I've 92 00:06:55,480 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: seen people heal all manner of illnesses as disturbances and 93 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: troubles in their lives, everything from relationships to money problems. 94 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: We've seen this over and over again, and I believe 95 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: it has to do with a couple of things. It 96 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: is the power of intention which does magnify in a 97 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: group of any size. But also it is the power 98 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: of groups. We were never meant to be as isolated 99 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: as we are now. Can you say, though, lend, that 100 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: the one could be just as strong as the many 101 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: with intention depending on who that person is. There are 102 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: certain people who have gifts, just like certain people are 103 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: gifted in playing the piano, but we all have this 104 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: hidden capacity, George, And that's the issue too. We have 105 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: this and we know this as children, but it's denied 106 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: over and over again by our authority figures, our parents, 107 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: our teachers, who tell us stop imagining things, and so 108 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: we lose it. It's like we stop practicing it, so 109 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: we lose it. But we all have this capacity. I 110 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: believe though, that the group effect brings us to a 111 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: different state of consciousness. And in that different state of consciousness, 112 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: in that experience of oneness, that's when the real power manifests. 113 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: And you know, we don't get to experience that too often. 114 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: Lots of people ask me, well, how do I enter 115 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: the field? And what I wrote about in the field 116 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: was this idea that we're all part of this giant 117 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: quantum web. And I say to people, well, you don't 118 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 1: have to enter it. You are it. We're all part 119 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: of it. Our sub atomic particles and we're all energy 120 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: are dancing with other subatomic particles everywhere in the world, 121 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: including in empty space, so we are part of it. 122 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: That we don't get to experience life like that, George. 123 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: We experience life in separation, you know, as lonely little 124 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: people on a lonely little planet. We don't get to 125 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: experience ecstatic oneness, but we do get that when we're 126 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: part of a group. And we've done brainwave studies looking 127 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: at power of a groups, and we find that they 128 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: do something very different to the brain very quickly, not 129 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: like meditation. Our brainwave studies show brainwave patterns that are 130 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: almost opposite to meditation, to those meditations. Is that surprising 131 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: to you? It was, and it was surprising to the 132 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: neuroscientists I worked with. We thought we were going to 133 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: see brainwave signatures identical to those of meditation. What we 134 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: see instead is brainwave signatures that are virtually identical to 135 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: those done by the University of Pennsylvania when studying Buddhist 136 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: monks in ecstatic prayer and Sufi masters during chanting. Both 137 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: of them have brainwaves that where certain ones diminish the 138 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: parts of the brain like those in the parietal lobes. 139 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: They sit towards the back of the head, and they 140 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: help us navigate through space. They help us determine what's 141 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 1: me and what's not me. Those are dialed way down 142 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: during these power of eight groups and intention experiments, and 143 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: so are the parts of the brain like the right 144 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: frontal lobes involved in worried doubt negativity, those are also 145 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: turned way down, and other parts are also diminished. And 146 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: what this indicates is someone in a state of ecstatic oneness. 147 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: So we go into this brain state very quickly, and 148 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: the studies we did, we're on total novices. These weren't 149 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: superpower of eight intention experts. These were student volunteers, and 150 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: yet they have that experience almost immediately. So I think 151 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: that's the big difference. When we get into this amazing 152 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: state of oneness, miracles do happen, they do. Indeed, what 153 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: are you working on now these days? When well, I've 154 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: started a thing called the eight Revolution, George, and this 155 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: has all to do with the state of the world 156 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: right now, because I kept thinking to myself, on my goodness, 157 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: look at it. In politics, we're so polarized, we are 158 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: our leaders don't seem to have the answers for anything. 159 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:11,119 Speaker 1: We have issues with everything from the climate to the economy. 160 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: You know, we're having bank failures again. Everything is falling 161 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: down again, and nobody seems to know what to do 162 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 1: to fix it, and the top down approach may not work. 163 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: So I thought to myself, I need an army of 164 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,719 Speaker 1: change makers. And then I suddenly realized, I've got an 165 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 1: army of change makers already. I've got tens of thousands 166 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: of Power of Eight groups around the world. What if 167 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: I brought them all together and started offering them some 168 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 1: free tools for a new world. And so that's what 169 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: I did. We've just launched it, and we're calling in 170 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: all the Power of Eight groups and helping them with 171 00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: information about how to start a social revolution. And when 172 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: I say revolution, I'm not talking about the overthrow of 173 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: the government, not talking about anything related to taking down anything. 174 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: But what I'm talking about is making change from the 175 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: ground up. And it's really the way every social revolution starts. 176 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: You know. It's the way Gandhi liberated India from Britain 177 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: by working with small groups. It's the way Martin Luther 178 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: King started the civil rights movement by working with small groups. 179 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 1: And it's the way the Prague Spring, after the Progue Spring, 180 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 1: Czechoslovakia ended up leaving the Soviet Union without a single 181 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 1: shot being fired. And it was because of small groups 182 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: just starting something small and saying we're going to do 183 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: something different. And the other part of the Eight Revolution, 184 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: as I mentioned, we were never meant to be so isolated, George. 185 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: I mean, all of the science I've studied shows that people, 186 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: human beings were meant to be in groups, We were 187 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 1: meant to have community, and we just don't anymore. You know, 188 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: one in four people over sixty five have no contact 189 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: with any humans at all, no contact. The only contact 190 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: they've got is their TV set and radio and the 191 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: radio and their radio. Absolutely and hearing you, George. But 192 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: so many people are so isolated. So this was another 193 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: idea of creating communities because I've seen it with all 194 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: my power of eight groups, people who were so isolated 195 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: suddenly have a group of eight who have their back, 196 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: you know. I think of Jerry, who was part of 197 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: a course of mine last year and the year before, 198 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: and so it was during COVID, and he of course 199 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: had no contact with anybody because we were also isolated, 200 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: and yet his power of aid group was like a lifeline. 201 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: And he said the biggest thing for him, you know, 202 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: lots of little miracles happened, he said, but the biggest 203 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: thing was the community, having the compassion, the love, And 204 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: he said, I've had more connection and love during lockdown 205 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: than I've ever had in my life. And so I 206 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: think the community aspect of it is really important. And 207 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: if you bring these groups together and start giving them 208 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: suggestions and help and tools for creating little change in 209 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: their neighborhoods and towns and cities, you know you can 210 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: create a massive, massive movement. Absolutely. When you talk about 211 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: the power of eight, what does that mean? It comes up, 212 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: this number comes up in numerology, comes up all over 213 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: the place. What's it mean? Well, for me, it was 214 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: an accident. George, I was thinking of scaling down the 215 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: Intention experiment for a workshop, and I was kicking this 216 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: over with my team and my husband and said, I 217 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: don't know, Maybe I'll put people into groups and have 218 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: them send intention to a member of the group with 219 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: a health challenge. And my husband's a great headline writer, 220 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: he's also a journalist. An I love it the power 221 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: of eight. So that's how the name started. And eight, 222 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: of course has all of that numerology. In China, it's 223 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: considered a lucky number. It's got all of that stuff. 224 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: It's a sideways infinity sign. But to be honest, the 225 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: group doesn't have to be just eight. It can be six, 226 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: it can be twelve. Eight is a nice I like 227 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: to call it a Goldilocks figure. It's not too big, 228 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: it's not too small. It's just kind of perfect sized. 229 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 1: But he doesn't have to be eight. I had a 230 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: friend of mine who ran a restaurant in Los Angeles. 231 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: He since passed. His name was George two ran a 232 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: Greek restaurant. And I told him about the power of 233 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: eight and how it works in numerology and that it 234 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: could bring you luck. So he put an eight in 235 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: his wallet lyn and went to a local casino one 236 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 1: a thousand dollars. Came back and told me he was 237 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: all excited. I let see it works well. Greed took 238 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: over and he went back out. He put he put 239 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: eights in his two pockets and his wallet all over 240 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 1: the place, and he came back and he lost the thousand, 241 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: and he was depressed the next day and he said, 242 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: he said I lost. He said, I had like five 243 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: eights all over my body. What happened? And I said, 244 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: greed got you. So there's a there's a factor in 245 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: there somewhere, isn't there? I think there is. I think 246 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 1: what I find that really works for mostly everybody in 247 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 1: power of eight groups is getting off of yourself generosity, altruism, 248 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: intending for other people and then it comes back to 249 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: you and that I've seen over and over and it's 250 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: a little like carma.
