If you ask the question that

allows you to be really present,

in the moment and synthesize

and syncretize the opposite,

pairs of opposites in the

mind, we end up in presence.

In all probability you've heard

people talking about, now be present,

get into the now, don't live in

the past and future, be present.

I'd like to address that topic today.

So if you have something to write

with and write on, you might grab it.

But for centuries, if not millennia,

there has been discussions in

philosophers minds on, what

exactly is the present?

Is it an infinitesimal,

so tiny you can't even get into it?

Is it some increment of time

that we're called present?

And is the present something we

once had as we go into the future,

or will have ? If

we're living in the past.

Where exactly is the present? How

do we get into it? The power of now,

Eckhart Tolle talked about.

Well, how do we do it?

I've been fascinated with that

topic for many decades. So

let's just address that topic for

a second. Now, my observation,

if you are meeting people and you meet

somebody that you're infatuated with,

and you look up to them and

you're conscious of the upside,

unconscious of the downside,

and you anticipate,

you start to create an

imagination of what could happen,

engaging with this

individual into the future.

And if you ran into somebody in

the past that you were infatuated

with in the past, and liked, you

might recall that into the past,

as long as you have imagination

into the future and you have memory,

you're adding the arrow

of time into your mind,

which is what is called entropic,

it tends to make us disordered and

it tends to make us wobble and not

be present. But we're thinking about

the future, thinking about the past,

and we're having intrusive thoughts about

things we're infatuated with or things

we were once infatuated with

in the memory of the past.

The same thing if we resent somebody.

If we're highly resentful and

conscious of the downsides,

unconscious of the upsides, we can

actually now have intrusive thoughts.

I'm sure you've had infatuations

or resentments to people

and tried to sleep at

night and you couldn't sleep,

because you had all this ruminating

in your mind and your imagination was

running wild and the memory of what

has happened is now in your mind.

So you're oscillating back

and forth. And when you do,

you have time in the mind.

And anytime you do that,

you're in the existential world where

you've extended time and space into

past and future, and over there, not here.

But being present is very powerful.

It's a one word that actually

integrates space and time. Present here,

present now.

And what's interesting is when you extract

out space and time from the mind and

become present, you also empower the mind.

Your intuition is attempting to do that,

but the impulses and instincts of your

amygdala and your subcortical area of

your brain and your subconscious

mind is keeping it in time.

That's why philosophers said

there was Kairos and Chronos.

Chronos was time and Kairos was

present. So the question is,

how do we actually go

to the present? Well,

I've been interested in that

for a long time. And in fact,

my Demartini Method that I present in

the Breakthrough Experience is designed

for that objective. It actually says,

now go to a moment where and

when you perceive a particular

event that you were infatuated

with or resentful to,

that you admire or despise,

that you look up to or down on.

And in that moment you find the opposite.

If you're finding it positive,

you find the negative to it.

If you find it negative,

you find the positive to it.

And once you bring them into perfect

symmetry, perfect synchronicity,

simultaneous opposites,

you take out memory and imagination

and infatuation resentment,

and you bring somebody to the present.

Now I've been doing that

for 35, 38 years now,

35 in the Breakthrough Experience plus,

38 years clinically with

people with my method,

and when people are actually present,

they have tears of gratitude,

they feel love, they're inspired,

they feel really enthused

about what's happening,

they see the hidden

order in the chaos, they

really are in a state of gratitude

and love, and they really,

they maximize their potential and their

service and utility into the world.

So the second we see both sides

of an event simultaneously,

and we don't get infatuated or resentful,

where we see the downside to the thing

we look up to and the upsides to the

thing we look down on, the second

we do that, we become present.

The present is the synthesis

and synchronicity of

complementary opposites in

time or space or in emotional charge,

or things that matter

to us. So I ask people,

what specific trait,

action or inaction do you perceive this

individual displaying or demonstrating

that you admire most,

or despise most? Great,

at that moment I ask

them now, at that moment,

what's the downside to it,

or what's the upside to it?

And when the downsides and upsides

come into perfect equilibrium,

where it's not positive nor negative,

it's neither positive or negative,

the memory and imagination

come into the present.

And instead of sitting there and

holding onto a memory of the past or

imagination of the future,

we automatically extract out space and

time in the mind and get present. Now,

meditation is sort of doing

this with our intuition,

and we can get to the present

by a meditation, but it's

kind of a hit and miss,

it may take minutes.

But the method that I've developed is

designed to take you into the present.

It's designed to extract out space and

time from the mind and become present.

And it's the space and time in the mind

that causes all the disorder and chaos

and emotional vicissitudes

and volatilities and

uncertainties we have in our

life. The moment we bring ourselves

into the present, we transcend those.

And again, we have the transcendental

feelings of gratitude, love, inspiration,

enthusiasm, certainty and presence. And

that's where we have the most power.

That's where we're most objective. See,

we have subjective biases

when we judge things.

And we have objective truth

and we actually love things,

we see both sides of things. Now, I'm

not defining love as an infatuation,

which many people think is love,

but love is the synthesis and

synchronicity of opposites.

And what I mean by synchronicity,

that means there's no time

separating things causally.

It's not this happened and then after

that this happened. They're simultaneous.

When you have simultaneity and you

have synchronicity and you have a

perfect synthesis in space and

time, you now become present.

Now, this was done by the dialectic by

Greek philosophers attempting at least,

but I've developed a method that think

goes beyond that and allows you to ask

questions. I have a section

in my Demartini Method,

which I present in the Breakthrough

Experience called Column 6 and 13 of a

series of columns that

we ask questions on.

And in this question we go to a moment

where and when we perceive an individual

displaying or demonstrating

a trait, action,

or an action that we

admire or despise most,

and in that moment we identify

where it happened, when it happened,

and we become present in

the moment of perception.

The more present we are in

the moment of perception,

the less we have space and time,

and the less we have emotions

and less the uncertainties.

And in that moment our

intuition will pop out,

once we're clear on the where the when

and what the content was and exactly

what and who they did this

to, if they did it to you,

the action that you're judging,

if you get really present with it,

your intuition reveals

the complete antiparticle,

the opposite experience,

because all perceptions are

made out of pairs of opposites.

And the moment you see both

of them simultaneously, you

enter into the presence.

And the moment you do, you're not in

beta waves, you're not in delta waves,

you're in alpha theta waves,

and then you synchronize into gamma

waves and you get a gamma synchronicity,

an aha, eureka moment,

where you're inspired and you get

tears in the eyes and you know,

a state of knowing, there's no

uncertainty, a state of certainty.

And in that moment, you have the moment

of presence. And it's awe-inspiring.

There's a very powerful

state called presence.

And in that moment there's kind

of a timeless mind, ageless body,

as Deepak used to say. And in that moment,

we don't age, we don't have entropy,

we have negentropy, the

opposite of entropy.

And this is the physics of

life, not the physics of death.

Entropy is the tendency

to go to randomness and

disorder and which is part of

the death process, the death

physics. But this is life physics.

This is discovering the hidden order in

the apparent chaos and seeing things.

It's when you reclaim the information

that you were unconscious of and become

fully conscious and you see both sides

simultaneously that you become present.

And this state is not only profound

as far as wellness quotient,

but it's also profound in the sense of

loving and appreciating life and yourself

and the people around you.

So I just wanted to make a few moments

on this idea of being present. Again,

if you ask the question that allows you

to be really present in the moment and

in synthesize and syncretize the opposite,

pairs of opposites in the mind, we end

up in presence. What's interesting,

in quantum physics there's

a thing called entanglement,

where you have a positive charged

particle, like a positron,

and a negatively charged

particle like electron,

and they originate out of a

photon, and what happens they go,

no matter where they are in space

and time, they work as a team.

And so this is a quantum

entanglement. Well,

the same kind of thing

occurs sort of in the mind.

The mind has never a memory

without an imagination.

The hippocampus that stores the memory

also has the details for the imagination.

And in the process, when you get really

present, at the moment of perception,

these things that separate

normally, reunite.

And in that moment you have a temporal

entanglement, time is synchronized,

a spatial entanglement, no

matter where it is in space time,

they synchronize their opposite

behaviors. And in that moment,

you have presence. And this is

the key, as I said, to wellness.

This is the key to stability. It's

the key to self-actualization.

And I'm a firm believer that if you

follow the process that I teach in the

Breakthrough Experience and actually go

through and do that and enter into that

state, which we make sure everybody does,

you can't have anything

except a tear of gratitude.

You spontaneously see the hidden

order in the apparent chaos,

and you realize there was nothing

to fix, nothing to change.

It's like a perfection

that occurs. You know,

Leibniz, the German philosopher talked

about that the more people probe into the

mysteries of life, the more perfect

it becomes. And I think this is it.

We we have this assumption there's a

mistake in the universe or some sort of

disordered thing that's going on,

and then we look and ask a new set of

questions that equilibrate our mind and we

enter into a state where

there's nothing but grace,

a state where we realize

that there's nothing to fix.

Every very week in the Breakthrough

Experience I have people coming there and

they come up with the idea that, you know,

my father didn't do this or

my mother didn't do that,

or my brother didn't do this,

or sister didn't do that,

or my husband does this

or, and they got judgments.

And every time you judge, you're

adding space and time to the mind,

weighing yourself down with

gravitational pull, emotional baggage.

And you store it in your hippocampus

and the subconscious mind,

this drama that's in your life and

these uncertainties and vicissitudes.

But the second you go through there and

ask the right question to see both sides

simultaneous and synchronize your mind,

and extract out space and time

between pairs of opposites,

and literally enter into the world

of the entangled pairs of opposites,

like in quantum physics,

you'll open up a doorway of opportunity

for your life to be actually fulfilled.

And that's why I took the moment to share

this because I've developed a science,

since I was 18 years old I've been

working on it 50, almost two years.

And you can access this state

and it's duplicatable and

reproducible and transcribable

and translatable,

and I can take anybody from almost any

culture and have them go through it.

If they can translate

what my instructions are,

they can actually go and enter into this

state, and actually in that mind state,

that mental state, you're actually not

aging. You're actually having no entropy.

You're actually just present. There's

a stillness there in the mind.

There's no noise in the mind,

there's no distractions.

There's no impulses and instincts to seek

or avoid because of pleasure or pain.

You synthesized it.

I define love as a synthesis

and synchronous of all

complementary opposites.

And you enter into a state of

love. And there's grace, as I said,

and then you're present.

And this present is the perfect

state of where you sit in awe

and you're in silence, golden

silence. You've hit the,

what Aristotle called the

golden mean, the highest virtue.

And this is something that literally

stops some of the aging. See,

as long as we're in the existential world

where we're in memory and imagination

and we've stored some sort of

emotional charge of polarity,

we're going to fear

that which we think is,

fear the loss of things

that we think are positive,

we're going to fear the gain of

things that we think are negative.

If we completely neutralize them and

synchronize them, we don't have fear,

we don't have fantasy. No philias,

no phobias, just presence.

And that state is a very profound state.

And one of the things I absolutely love

about the Breakthrough Experience is

teaching people how to do that, making

them go through that, experience that,

and have an awe,

and they're literally

silent and speechless almost

when they have it because

they don't even know how to put

it in words. And that's profound.

I've seen people heal from

it that had health issues.

I've seen people resolve

conflicts and issues with people.

I've seen them love and

appreciate themselves.

So I think the journey into the present

is something worthy of every human

being.

I don't know of any human being that

can't benefit by extracting out space and

time from their mind and

getting into the present.

And that's why the quality of your life's

based on the quality of the questions

you ask. If you ask questions that

allow you to see both sides of an event

simultaneously, instead of labeling it

positive or negative or good or bad,

or judging it with moral hypocrisies,

but to actually just honor it and see

its wholeness. When you're objective,

you see both sides simultaneous.

When you're subjective,

you bias your opinion

and you perceive things,

you have false positives

and false negatives,

you see things that aren't there and you

don't see things that are there and you

distort your reality.

And then you end up having the

aging process and a bunch of time,

and you then store that in memories and

imaginations for fear of loss of things

or fear of gain of things, prey,

predator mentality, animal behavior,

instead of actually human

nature, at its finest.

So the journey into presence

is asking quality questions,

which I've described and outlined in

the Breakthrough Experience with the

Demartini Method, to assist you in having

the timeless mind and ageless body,

the the state of presence.

And I believe that anybody,

I've seen young kids go through it and

apply the method and see the results,

I've seen people in their nineties do it,

so time has nothing to do with

it as far as the aging process.

Who's the one that can do this? We can

all do it. But learning how to do it,

I'm certain can reduce the

stress levels, empower your life,

help you communicate more effectively,

help you appreciate and love your life,

and allow you to just not

have the aging, you know,

and stressful dynamics

that most people live in.

So just wanted to take a few moments to

talk about the journey into presence and

the journey about being present,

and to let you know that in

the Breakthrough Experience

I show you how to do

that and teach you the Demartini Method

so you've got that the rest of your

life.

And I think it does stop and slow down

the aging process and allows you to

actually have more gratitude and love

and inspiration and enthusiasm and

certainty and presence, which I

call the transcendentals of life.

So if you're interested in that,

please join me at the

Breakthrough Experience and

come and learn this method on

how to become present.
