Why 95% of Your Life Runs on Programs You Never Chose | Bruce Lipton

36:01I say if the belief system is translated into behavior, if I believe I'm a victim, then my behavior will be as a victim. no power you guys tell me what to do and i'll try and do what you just said and i say well that's the biggest problem of all because quantum physics i mentioned is the most valid science and principle number one is you're the creator of this it's like well when are you going to own that and the answer is i could say it but then you walk away and a few minutes later you're back into your world again everything's gone you know listen it took me a while uh i learned and understood that, oh my God, this is how it works.

36:41And I was so excited. I wanted to get people, I'm going to tell anybody to listen to this experience. This is how it works. So I beginning got some people together and I started to go off. Let me tell you how to create the most beautiful life experience. And then they'd look at me and they go, you know, Lipton for a guy who says, you know, this year, your life doesn't look that good. Interesting. It was my wake up call. I said, how the hell can I talk about how wonderful this is and I'm not practicing it and I immediately said to myself no don't go out there and talk to anybody about this why until you do it so what were the what were the things that were holding you back before you've discovered this and then what was the new program that you started to implement for yourself on a consistent basis to have 100 % upgraded program.

37:33Yeah. Well, one of the things professionally, okay, I was doing a great job. I had a great professorship in a medical school, all that kind of stuff. You know, personally, my life sucked. I could get a relationship off the ground. I go, why not? And I go, well, now that I know about it, I was programmed about relationships by observing my father and my mother. Well, they had dysfunctional relationships. So what do you think I downloaded? it dysfunction yeah so my conscious mind goes forward and says yeah i want to have a great relationship i get into it my subconscious mind steps up and says oh this is how we do a relationship you oh oh game over you know why because i didn't see the negative behaviors that i was putting out my partner potential partner saw them and gave them cause for alarm i don't think i want to be with this guy you know that was me and then i realized that and that's when i really had to go in first thing and start to change who am i and i'll tell you the biggest problem now after years of working people do not love themselves and i said what does that mean i said if you have a program where you don't love yourself then rationally logically can anybody else love you and the answer is no because you don't think you're lovable that's right and somebody says you are that oh i love you and then you go well you know you probably don't have any quality control i know i'm not lovable what's wrong with you you know and then at some point you push them away and then they're not there then you go i'm not lovable nobody's here i i push them away you know and i changed that i was nearly what 45 years old 40 some years old and i had zero quality relationships for all that life right I've changed the program and within a couple of years I I'm now with my partner Margaret and and the fact is she was involved with a workshop training program for people so she understood processing and stuff and when I came and we added the science and the processing uh we've been living a honeymoon for 26 years really years waking up every day going, wow, still here.

39:50Another day for fun. Another day for being in love. It was great. And it still is. But if I didn't change the program, that would never have been part of my life at all. I would have been my whole life struggling. How did you change it? And what was the thing that you started to say in replace of the previous program? Well, the first thing was I had, we do muscle testing. Now you're an athlete, all that stuff. And you know about muscles. Well, let me just say about muscle testing. The conscious mind is a creative mind, and the subconscious mind is a program, but the subconscious mind being a massive processor controls muscles.

40:30The subconscious, not thinking, man, it's boom, it's just programmed real fast, reflexes, boom, like this, okay? So, if you make a statement with your conscious mind, the creative mind and the subconscious mind doesn't agree with that there's no history to support that statement then the two minds are not in harmony i said what happens when they're in disharmony the answer is it weakens the subconscious mind and the muscles get weaker so how do we how do we get them in harmony well you have to make sure then whatever statements you're making are agree with the subconscious program and if you want a statement that's positive and your subconscious program doesn't have it, then all of a sudden you say, well, that's where I got, I got to fix a subconscious mind.

41:16I don't need to fix a conscious one. And that's when it comes back. Well, then programming that subconscious mind. Another one that was so amazing was I tried to write my biology belief book. I got to three different times. I got started, got about halfway through and it just petered out. I just disappeared. And I was so upset because I really wanted to write this book and then doing muscle testing. I found out that my subconscious mind did not support writing the book. I go, why not? And the answer was, because I'm a scientist. And if I wrote the book, which had spirituality in it, I would lose my support from my colleagues.

41:54So my subconscious mind was saying, okay, that's enough. No more writing, because if you conclude this, you're going to be an outcast from your society. So I remember doing one of these balances, they're called, 15 minutes or less. And in the process, part of the balance was, how do I want this book to be written now? Well, I said, I want it to be written fast because I waste a lot of time. I thought struggling over it was a pain in the ass. So I thought, you know, maybe it should be fun. OK. And so fun and easy, whatever it was, I balanced that. And I forgot about it because it was just 15 minutes.

42:39And it was like, oh, yeah, I should do something about that, blah, blah, blah. And months later, the book is done. And I remember getting it, reviewing it. It's going to go to the publisher. This is the final read, sending it to the publisher. Get down to the last page, down to the last thing. Get down to the last line. It's finished. And I pushed myself back in the chair. And I said, wow, that was fast and kind of fun. And it was easy. I said, holy, those are the words that I put in, which I completely forgot about. And I programmed my mind that way. And the moment I finished the book, I said, fast, fun, and easy.

43:20I go, holy, that was the program. And it was what took me off. But go back to the I love myself one, because I can tell you now for a fact, I'm being involved with so many belief change programs. over 80 generally 90 of every audience will not test positive for i love myself that's a very large number and that means why why so many marriages fall apart because they never really connected they were sort of like you know on the surface really nice but their subconscious programs clash boom gone it's not working uh and then the idea is what well let me give you a reason why you're an athlete so i know i can tell you right right where that programming worked and it goes like this um if a kid on a sports team is not doing well the coach doesn't go oh please try harder you could do better no coach comes out there that's not good enough who do you think you are you know you're not worthy to be on this team blah blah blah and the player immediately in the conscious mind goes oh my god i better work harder and be better sure i great now i say what if the parent is acting as a coach and the kid is five years old i go why is that important i said they're not using the conscious mind at five years old they're in record and the parent said that's not good enough you don't deserve this you're not lovable who do you think you are i say the child is not thinking about what the parent was intending the child's recording i'm not lovable i'm not deserving i'm not this and i go the 95 of your life is going to come from that program and you see why you struggle you don't love yourself because the first thing you'd be critical of yourself i'm not good enough i'm not this i i go well now you're self-critical and the moment you're self-critical you just uh canceled the whole game right at that point so what is this muscle balance test thing you were talking about is this called muscle testing how do you do this well uh one's a very simple way you can use any part of your body with muscles i could push on your head i could push on a finger usually it's done with an arm arm yeah push my arm down and the game is this it's not arm wrestling people think oh i say no no the idea is this you have to keep focus you make a statement and you keep your mind on that statement uh difference give me give me an example give me an example of like uh I love myself.

45:52I love myself. Hold out your arm. Point. If the conscious and subconscious agree the muscle is a rock, you could do chin-ups on that arm, okay? But if the subconscious doesn't agree with the conscious mind, you say I'm lovable, and the subconscious mind gives you all the reasons why you're not, then guess what? Now the two minds are in disharmony, and now the arm will move. I say, well, how much does it move? I say, well, all you need to know is it moved that much. if it just moved that little bit any more pushing or thing now that's arm wrestling it was if if they both agree that's solid that's not even going to move but if there's if the two don't agree then just even the first downward movement like that says that's it you don't have to do any more so how do you program them with knowing this information you said it was like a 15 minute thing you did okay program well let me just say there are three ways to program so there's there's not just one.

46:46The one I'm going to tell you is the fast. It's a miracle one. Okay. I'm going to say, well, how'd you get, what are the other ways of programming a habit? And I say, well, how'd you get the habit? Because you were in hypnosis for seven years. And I say, how do you get into hypnosis? I say, well, guess what? Remember when you're at work, you have higher vibration. Then you come home, the vibration calms down alpha. And then the moment you fall asleep, you are in a vibration called theta, which is hypnosis. So putting earphones on at night with a program of what you want to be true in your life and just put it you're sleeping and the program is talking to your subconscious and it's only a short window so you repeat this a lot just put the programs and then one day you wake up and the program is already manifested okay so that's hypnosis it's called self-hypnosis okay second way you still learn things after you were seven years old driving a car playing an instrument you know uh sports whatever you learned then okay I go, well, how'd you learn that?

47:42Because it became a habit. I say, repetition, practice. That's what makes a habit after age seven. Anything you want, then you've got to practice it and you can manifest it. The third way is the one we were just talking about, and that's a new form of psychology called energy psychology. I go, what does that mean? I go, maybe you've seen somebody read a book. It's called Super Learning. They can open up a book to a page and they can take their finger and go down the page and they read everything just as fast as i went like that i read every word on the page that's called super learning i go these techniques energy psychology engage super learning i say so what's relevant the earphones out at night the repetition time consuming repetition you got to do both energy psychology 15 minutes in a super learning state will download a behavior in 15 minutes you walk away it's totally different just boom just as fast us at and it's like oh that's a new agey monkey i go no no this is this is real i go because since then and i've been involved with him uh a neuroscientist uh uh jeff fannin uh he was in his lab doing neuroscience stuff brain mapping that's what they called it someone in his uh lab who worked there went through a what's the energy psychology process the one i'm talking about Psy-K, came back to the lab and told Jeff, you know, you can change your beliefs in so many minutes.

49:08He says, no, you can't. I'm a neuroscientist. I know you can't do that. So they argue back and forth, but they're in the lab. So Jeff said, here, put the electrode caps, the EEG cap, put it on my head. You do that process. His whole life changed five minutes later. His whole life went upside down because it was on the screen now. It's not new age. It showed the brain all of a sudden became what is called whole brain function, whole brain lit up. And he said, he's only seen that on some master meditator. It's the only time you've ever seen that. And he saw it and it is so powerful. It's recordable.

49:45That's the cool part. So it's not like, oh, that's a good idea. I say, no, here it is. The machine will show it. Matter of fact, it's so obvious that EEGs are just like squiggly lines, squiggly lines going across like that. Audience can't read them. Neuro people do. but he started giving some lectures where he'd have somebody come up who wanted to change a belief and they put the cap on in front of the audience but they then put it on the big screen the electrical readout of the EEG then they would do this what's called the psyche balance and the audience would go oh they could it was so profoundly different that oh my god the whole brain pattern just changed in front of everybody's face completely just doing the process so I bring this up only to say it sounds new agey, but no, there's a scientific objective measurement.

50:35And basically, what does it do? It engages a super learning capacity. And you can download just like a kid, actually, before age seven. That's when children had whole brain activity before age seven. That's how they could download stuff instantly. Just download it, download it. OK, after age seven, the whole brain right and left hemispheres, there's a line right down the middle of the brain. They're called two hemispheres. The left hemisphere is like sees whole pictures. The right hemisphere sees pieces. OK, left hemisphere sees a brick wall. Right hemisphere sees little bricks in the wall. OK, the left hemisphere is intellectual.

51:18The right hemisphere is emotional. These are complementary characters. as long as the brain is integrated, they work together. But after age seven, they separate. And then during the day, every couple of hours or so, you're in the left side. Then a few hours later, you're in the right side. I go, what's the difference? I say, sometimes I'm more intellectual in my approach. And then a little bit later, I'm more emotional in my approach. And I go, this is where the stuff hits the fan when a couple is arguing. And let's just say, okay the man is in his left hemisphere he's got all the words you know he's got cut you up with all the words the woman in this particular case happens to be in a right hemisphere she's in the emotional side she's going oh she has no words oh you know going like this two hours later she gets into her intellectual side he's on the emotional side he's going home and i really screwed this up And then she comes in and goes, cuts him out.

52:16And the whole idea is when we're adults, we separate the functions, which then changes our character during the day. The energy psychology modalities are engaging, bringing them back together again, just like a kid under seven. I say, how fast does it take a kid to download something? I say, he heard it, he downloaded it. That's how fast it goes. I go, exactly. So energy psychology can rewrite a program you've had your whole life and in minutes rewrite it. How do we get into energy psychology? How do we get into that, I guess, practice? Okay, well, on my website, let's just get this over with because it's simple.

52:59BruceLipton.com. I've listed under belief change modalities about 25 or 30 different versions of energy psychology. technology and there's a little descriptor about each one and then a website that you could connect to and get more information so i give people an option to take a look at here's a variety of ways you can do it uh you know i'm familiar with the one i'm familiar with because my whole life changed i i'm living heaven on earth i published my books i'm living a completely in the middle of crazy land uh my world is i i still live happy every day in the middle of crazy land you have happiness peace calm and love absolutely absolutely we're creators exactly i think i saw you share somewhere that the matrix was not sci-fi it's a documentary absolutely 100 simply is that a the premise is everybody was programmed that's the premise and i say that's not a premise that's a reality for seven years a little bit of history here just a the catholic group called the Jesuits have told their followers for 400 years, give me a child and until it is seven and I will show you the man.

54:11I said, what did they know? Exactly what we've been talking about. Seven years is program, rest of life, 95 % program. Wow. What should parents be aware of if they're a new parent and they're raising kids in the first seven years? What What should they be saying throughout the day? What should their behavior be? How should they be connecting as a couple? How should they be communicating to their children? What should that look like? That is perhaps one of the most important things, Lewis, to understand right now, because the children now are the future of civilization. And we have been unconsciously disempowering people by giving them beliefs that take away their power.

54:54in contrast a parent should be the one that says you are the smartest the brightest the most intelligent the most lovable the most creative all those things why because they become programs so when that kid grows up i'm the most creative i'm the most intelligent you know they have all these very positive characters working 95 of the day and they're manifesting heaven if parents understood this but the problem is this here's the big problem i'm going to be a conscious parent because i heard bruce and lewis talk about the fact that if i say all these wonderful words to my kid they're going to be great and healthy and vibrant and which is true uh and and then i go well yeah but you left something out i go what is it you're only conscious as a parent or conscious as a person 5 % of the day.

55:47So when you're thinking about, today I'm being a conscious parent right now, and there I'm doing something very conscious, and five minutes later, you're playing a program that you got from your parents that was disempowering. You didn't see it, but your kids saw it, because the kids are all on record. And all of a sudden, so one of the biggest problems with being a conscious parent is to recognize, hey, you're going to struggle with your own consciousness 5 % of the day. To be a conscious parent, it's unfortunate that you need to be conscious all the time. But this really works out very well because in a couple relationship, and this relationship is really critical even before having a child, is to recognize when people come together, they brought baggage with them.

56:31Everybody brought baggage. Everybody got programmed. Some of the baggage might not be that good. here's the point if people don't know about the baggage the program the subconscious they get together and then somebody does something the other one gets angry then they fight and then there's all kinds of abuse going on without recognizing neither of them wanted to be the idiot they both wanted to be there in the happy honeymoon forever position but 95 is coming from the program so arguing and fighting actually just pushes people apart but if you know and your partner knows that some of these behaviors that come out that suck or did not come from my wishes and desires, folks, that came from a program, then there's no fight.

57:17But there's an opportunity to say, do you want to change that program? And say, what program? Because the story of Bill, I didn't see what the hell. What program are we talking about here? Because then each of you is, because if you fight, you're just pushing each other apart. But if you start to communicate, there's an opportunity to rewrite. And I said, well, what happens if both couples rewrite all that negative? And I said, well, then every day is honeymoon, 100 % of the day. Right? That's the destination. Unfortunately, 50 % of the marriages go boom. Why? Because when those bad programs come up, they don't know how to deal with it, at least the fights and anger and all that.

57:56And of course, and that burns it up and the fire gone. you know you're talking about a lot of people are victims in the world why do you think so many people center their identity with being a victim and why do you think they hold on to it so tightly when they know they could reprogram their beliefs and start living in accordance with a harmonious life and being the creator and manifester as opposed to the victim who is powerless yeah well i think the biggest thing some people say oh yeah you can change your life and then they find it's very difficult it's very hard i go why because they don't know how to push the damn record button uh you know and so many of them are talking to themselves i'm gonna make bruce you do better you just do better about this you do better and i go okay let's stop for a second who am i asking to do better oh my subconscious i go oh there's nobody in there who are you talking to nobody I go, well, that's a big waste of time, man, because that's not where change comes from.

58:59They don't know how to push that button. If you don't know how to push the button, it's frustrating. And it says, oh, it's so much hard work to change. It's not easy. It takes time. These are belief systems. Because they try and it doesn't work. I go, that's because they didn't know how to push the record button. So most people say, yeah, I can change, but it's not working. They said, think positive. And I thought positive and it didn't work. It's not working. No, because the idea was you can think all you want, but the problem is while you're thinking, you're actually playing the negative program.

59:30Thinking about being positive is actually creating the negative problem because you're not paying attention when you're thinking about being positive. So this is a whole issue. People have a feeling that they can change, but they have no effort. They don't want to get in the game because they feel it's just too much time. It doesn't work. And I tried it and it didn't work. and then they give up and then life just goes on. It's seamless. You don't see it. It's just the way you've been living it ever since seven years old. You've been just living this program. If someone had only said, you know what?

1:00:06I'm a victim. I've got too much going on. I don't have time to do these new program things you're talking about. The record button seems like too much work. It's exhausting. I've tried and started and stopped so many times with health, money, relationships, whatever it might be. And I'm a failure at all these things. if you could only give people a five minute thing to do every day and you said it just focus on this five minutes a day well that's just to get you started to get you started well to get the get you started is this if you like the first time that i really started to be aware that my my subconscious was controlling me was uh when i was in my car stopped at a red light and i realized i was going to be late and then all of a sudden i started berating myself well you can't do things right you're not good you idiot you're such a yeah how do you forget these things it was that moment i said wait i'm listening to what these words i'm actually stopping i'm not just saying the words i'm saying the words but i'm actually listening i said well how many positive things did i just say zero uh-oh there's a problem right there and i started to realize we have to stop and be conscious just long enough to listen to these things they flow through just continuously you got to stop and just tune in and say, what am I thinking?

1:01:23Why? Because you start to realize that most of your thoughts are negative and this is not good enough. That won't work. Blah, blah, blah. And I said, but that's a creative voice you're talking about right there. That voice is creating and everything you just said is now part of your creation. So what if you stopped? What if you just said, wait, what I did is I just covered up the clock on my car. So I didn't have to see how late I was going to be. And I got there on the right time. it's like why because i didn't focus on you know all the steps between here and the destination i just said i got to get there boom i was there that's how it worked okay so what can a person do i think the first time is just for them to wake up long enough to hear are you giving yourself positive vision of a future or you already cancel the future with with negative things that you can bring up any number of negative things it's not going to happen because of x fill in x you can put anything in there it's not going to happen i go until you understand oh my god i am not thinking a positive thought in this process well then i'm not if i'm not thinking positive thought then i don't want those other thoughts to manifest and that was a wake-up call should we is there a place where we should where negative thinking is a positive can't say it because it's a delusion it's a delusion it's not the reality a negative thinking besides manifesting it as a reality it's only and now you are manifesting well that was when do you want to stop manifesting i say when you stop long enough to correct yourself no i don't want to think that no let me think something positive let me assure you something while back I would have been what loosely called manic depressive.

1:03:12I'd be happy most of the time. And then something would go wrong. And then the next thing would go wrong. And I would go in a spiral. And then it got worse. And I'd get down and be totally depressed, you know, giving myself self-talk, bad criticism, not smart enough, not good enough, whatever. And I was engaged. This was like a repetitive process. And, you know, once it starts, it's like, oh, here we go. You know, it's going to go. And I was in my lab doing something and it required so much work to get this done. And, and then there was the part where I prepared the experiment, then I'm going to run the experiment takes like two hours to prepare.

1:03:48And then I start to run it. And if you mess up a little bit, the whole thing goes to, and I, so I did it the first time with the crap. And it's like, Oh God, it's gotta spend two more hours, putting it all back together again, weigh out all this stuff, do everything, get it ready. I ruined it the second time, third time, really me off because now i've spent over six hours of the day repeating experiments that never worked and i got real mad at myself and i went into that you idiot you can't do anything right and it was cool i was alone in the room and i hear a voice just right out in front of me somewhere right out there and that voice says don't you have anything better to do than to listen to this wow and i for a moment i was stunned like i'm the only one in the room you know it was my higher self looking at me going through this and saying don't you have anything better and i laughed that's kind of funny i said sure i'd rather go see a movie and there was a newspaper i picked it up found a movie went to the movie came out clear no more depression gone okay the next time i started to go down, I remembered that, don't I have anything better to do?

1:05:02I started to laugh, immediately changed, just went and did something else, stopped. It was a choice. I could continue going back and forth with that, or with a choice was, do something else. And I did it. Guess what? After a number of times, not too many, I never got depressed again, because this made a habit that if I would start in that direction, the habit was go do something else. And that has been now a valid part of my whole life. I carry nothing forward on this anymore. And this was like the freedom because it said, oh, my God, I used to get so depressed hearing how bad I was talking to myself about how bad I was.

1:05:44And now it's like it doesn't exist anymore.

1:05:49If you're living with yourself and you believe you're unlovable, then you're living with your unlovable self all day long and you're going to be anxious, probably stressed, worried, what are people thinking about me? I'm not good enough. Other people don't think I'm good enough. I'm not going to be accepted. They're going to leave me. And that's the conscious thinking mind. Right. And while you're thinking, what's running the show? The subconscious. And while I'm thinking, now the problem is running while I'm thinking about it. And as a cell biologist and researcher on science, what happens to our physical cells in the material world when the mind subconsciously and consciously is directing negative energy and thoughts towards it?

1:06:38Self-sabotage. You are manifesting a life. Are you manifesting a positive life? Well, that's a choice. You want to manifest a negative life? That's a choice. But if you start manifesting, then the cascade consequences of that are going to manifest in the process. It's a choice. People don't believe it's a choice because they get so carried away with it without looking at themselves saying, hey, wait, this is a moment of choice. That's why that voice, it woke me up, took me out of this lifetime of that. Because once it said that, it was funny. it was so funny that anytime i started to go down i started laughing and then stop and then the point was there never it's been years years since i've had any anger issues at all really yes it used to be a lot used to be a lot angrier used to be things weren't working i was more frustrated most of the time because things weren't working the way i wanted them to work now it's like are Are you kidding me?

1:07:38I'm like this happy camper. Hey, I'm awake. Guess what? I have another day here. Another day to experience. I have no idea what's going to happen. I send out some good things and then good things come back. Great. This is a great life. This is not an accident. I know this from a scientific point of view because I'm very clear of my first 40 plus years with those programs that I got from my family, creating the problem that my family has. you know my brother's cancer like that excuse me but you know i know why the same family they just kept the programming of that so it's not genetic it's programming 100 yeah what are some what are some daily affirmations you started to implement when you saw this depressed thoughts coming in or these self-sabotage thoughts coming in what did you shift it with affirmations with different thoughts?

1:08:33What did you start to say? It was just the awareness, A, that, you know, as I said, the very first stop light where I started all of a sudden to listen while I'm waiting for the light. It was like the first time I tuned in and go, what the hell are you thinking? That was the most important thing because then the habit of not going there anymore, starting to realize, uh-oh, this is why am I thinking this negative thing? Turn around, make a positive statement right now because that negative one is taking you on the, and just a repetition of this behavior become habitual. So, and habits are great.

1:09:06Why? No effort. I love habits. Why? You don't even have to think about them. They do it automatically, you know? So if you put in these really great habits, you can walk through the day and think anything you want, do anything you want. And your habits, if they're good ones, will just guide you perfectly through here without even being involved with thinking. That's the game. The game is what is heaven to you? then program that that's your life and then guess what the 95 of the day manifesting heaven well you're not even thinking about it and for those listening or watching saying you know bruce this sounds great and all but i've heard the positive thinking and changing your thoughts stuff a million times and i've tried it before and it hasn't worked for me how can you prove on a scientific level that this actually is not woo-woo land but it's actually scientific evidence Well, the one that was real important for me, because I knew the experience of Psyche helped me, but I had no awareness of what or how.

1:10:09Oh, that was cool. That was nice. But when I saw the results that Jeff Fannin showed of recording the activity while the process was going on, it's like, oh. Of the brain. Of the brain. Yeah, this is a real function. This is a real action. This is not a suggestion. This is a mechanism. and then that gave more positive character to me to follow through because i saw this is just not coincidence stuff man this is manifestation and and we have that opportunity to manifest but to many people their belief system about that is they're the victim and i'm stuck and that's the way it is that's my life and my genes did this and therefore i'm i'm i'm gonna die and and all this kind of and it's like wow you are now a machine and you're going to play that right out to the very end and it will happen just as you thought it would right yeah and if people you know we're talking about money and and kind of shifting the and really getting back to loving yourself and i think when we when we get back to loving ourselves which allows us to heal which allows us to feel whole and complete then we are in a energy field of receiving financial abundance of receiving health, of receiving quality relationships, because we won't abandon ourselves when we see someone by a reprogram that we had, by abandoning ourselves when we were kids.

1:11:33How do we use this to fight off disease and stay in a state of health and making sure that our bodies are healthy and eliminating the diseases that might come our way? Okay. Okay, again, the disease is less than 1 % is genetic, so the rest of it is lifestyle, okay? And that means, are you taking care of yourself? If you don't love yourself, then for sure you're not really taking care of yourself, because who cares about it? It doesn't mean anything. And since 80 % or more of the people I know do not test positive for I love myself, and you can see a massive population that is not making any real effort, you know, lip service.

1:12:15Yeah, I'm going to exercise tomorrow, maybe Thursday, maybe next week I'll start. You know, it's like, they're not doing it. When are you going to do it? Oh, you know, it's real interesting. Very important. We're energy fields. OK, and your energy, this is going to be a hard one. So I got to just say it and then people are going to go. Sure. I go. The world that we perceive as physical, physical bodies, you're in a physical room, physical cameras, physical, physical. I go, this is an illusion. Now, this is very hard for people, because you grew up, everything is physical, and all of a sudden I say, well, that's an illusion, it's energy, because that's what quantum physics recognizes, because you take the atom apart, and when you finally get to the bottom pieces, they're not physical, they're energy units, like little nano tornadoes, okay?

1:13:04And I go, so all of this is energy, that our energy, it's the energy that interacts, that shapes matter. Now, Einstein said this, he said, I'll give it to you a brief statement, and it's so profound. The field, that means the ambient energy, the field is the sole governing agency of the particle. What does that mean? Well, particles are perception of matter. The energy is the sole governing agency of what we perceive as matter. So, while we're focusing on the matter down here, people are ignoring the fact no it's the energy that created this and i go well what about the energy i say how am i creating my life and here comes the beautiful part oh wires on the head eeg i could read your brain function oh it's your thoughts are in your head i go wait a new device not eeg is called meg magneto encephalograph not electroencephalograph i say what does it do i that reads brain function i go yeah what's unique you ready probe is out here really yeah no you just you have to stop and just say what does that mean the answer is your thoughts are not contained in your head they're broadcast out into the field and the field you're generating a field of thought and the field is what is the sole governing agency of the particle matter and all of a sudden you have to recognize from the role of that's why quantum physics said it's our consciousness that's creating this experience out here because we're broadcasting this field and it's interesting because uh i was what brought this up was i was thinking uh uh a guy that i knew for a while uh cleave baxter he's passed um he he did experiments with plants he he was uh the guy that worked with lie detectors energy you know reading energies and stuff like that in his conventional world but he it was fooling around the lab and he put the detector on a plant and then he says i'm gonna kill that plant i'm gonna kill that plant no response nothing no then he got mad because nothing was happening so he really got up and he was gonna throw the plant away and he got up to throw the plant away and all of a sudden the electrical activity started all over the place you know, the plant went nuts.

1:15:25And I go, Oh, there's a difference about having an intention versus doing an action. Interesting. And I know that, you know, what irritates me is mosquito. It's on the wall. And I'm going to say, I'm going to get that mosquito. I get the paper. I'm getting close to the mosquitoes just sitting there, just, just sitting there. I go, okay, now swing. The moment I begin to swing, the mosquito flies away. It's like, it sat there until the moment I made a decision to act. Well, this applies to all of us for everything. You can have all the thoughts you want, but until you start an action, they don't manifest.

1:16:07And that is the hardest part because I can think, oh, I'm going to be wealthy. I'm going to be wealthy. I said, what are you doing to get wealthy? No, I'm saying I'm going to get wealthy. I said, you didn't do anything. You got to do something to take the step to make it start. So it's like an idol. all our thoughts spinning idling idling not till you throw it into gear is it going to manifest something and this becomes really important because how many people think yeah i'm gonna i'm gonna plan this this is what i want yeah this is what i want i go when are you gonna do it ah you never started it's not getting off the ground even the plants in your room know that you're not gonna do it right bruce this is inspiring and i want to be respectful of your time.

1:16:49We got to have you back on in person for a longer episode to break down a lot of these things on health and relationships and money. I want to make sure before we get to a final few questions, I want to make sure that people follow you. They check out all your information because I believe on your website, you've got a lot of these different practices where people can start to reprogram in different ways. So if they go to your website, brucelipton.com, they follow you on social media uh bruce if you just look up bruce lipton on instagram you'll see it there and then youtube youtube youtube channel with some fun stuff on it crushing on youtube as well we'll make sure to link all this stuff up and and again if you guys are on youtube watching this and you want more of us together then leave a yes below in the comments so we can see who is really engaged in this uh this is a question i ask everyone towards the end bruce it's called the three It's called the three truths.

1:17:43It's a hypothetical question. So I'd like you to imagine a scenario. Get into your conscious mind and imagine that you are on your last day many years away. Many years away, you get to live as long as you want, but it's the last day. And you have created heaven on earth. You've created heaven every day in your relationship, business, everything. Impact, service. But for whatever reason, you've got to take all of your work with you, all of your books and this interview, and it's all gone to another place. Whether it's with you or somewhere else, we don't have access to it. But you get to leave behind three truths, three lessons that you would share with the world.

1:18:24And this is all we have to remember your message by. What would be those three truths for you? Well, one and two are empowerment truths. uh number one empowerment is you're not a victim of your heredity you're the master of your genetic activity and therefore you can manifest full-out health i don't care what genes you got you rewrite your genes that's what epigenetics it doesn't change the gene code it changes the readout of the gene code that's what epigenetics does and therefore you can manifest whatever you want to program at this point. You're free to change the program, okay? So, we have to get out of the victimhood of, oh, James control my life, and I have no control over that.

1:19:09Number one, get rid of that one. Number two is then also expressing the fact that you're a spiritual entity. I say, what's significance? I say, well, first of all, you can't die, and that all of a sudden takes away all the fear that most people have. Fear is death. Anything else I can try and handle? Fear, it's done okay but what if it isn't done what if you're here and you come back again and then i say well then good if i do really good now maybe i can come back and do really better when i come back to next time why we're a field remember i said the energy broadcast called spirit or field is being picked up by these antennas but then part two i said but the brain also sends the the information back out again like a tuning fork so my life experiences here influence my spiritual field of karma interesting karma it's a mechanism and it says well if you really distort the hell out of it then you don't have a really harmonious energy field when you come in this is not really good how can you change it i said well you don't have to do lifetimes what you have to do is recognize, A, you have it, and B, I want to change my consciousness, and then I'm sending out now reparative energy that repairs the karma from the past, so I own it.

1:20:27So, A, we are spiritual entities. You can't die, and you came in here for what reason? To have heaven on earth, and that's why we're here. We didn't come here to struggle, to fight, to try and, you know, scratch out an existence and we didn't come here for that we came here for for why it's so beautiful all you have to do is go outside and look at wow look at this world look oh my god oh food love these kind of things oh man i'm enjoying it why because my physiology is what i have here that will translate this into sensation that goes back to source if i said source years ago, even in previous 40 years, I said, okay, describe love.

1:21:17And at some point, then what will happen is that I can write an essay. What is love? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I say, but when you have a body, you can feel love. That's not a conscious thing. That is an experiential thing like all that enhances my spirit why it could write about it but it didn't know about it now it's got more information it's like oh man what happens oh all this so so the idea really becomes important to recognize that um we came here for experiences and we didn't come here to to have struggle and fight and all that every baby is born born with love until it gets distorted by programming so the third one is this manifest heaven on earth if you're doing it other people around you are going to want to do it too and they're going to want to know how did how did you get so happy or why you know how can you be this way and you become a teacher and you give them that and you expand on this and this like a chain reaction will build up a world that everybody what if everybody woke up today and said it was heaven on earth and the answer is of course and seven no kidding that's all it took i said that's all it took bruce i'm so grateful for your your wisdom your experience also the you know decades of pain and struggle that you went through to allow you to have the awakening to then be able to teach us and learn and and educate us on the things you've learned from the spiritual and the scientific merging them together and giving us these tools this awareness this information it's really empowering because I think a lot of people are struggling and suffering and they're not clear on how to get out of that space.

1:23:05So I'm so grateful and I want to acknowledge you for your being a guide in this world, you being a leader and a guide in this world and educating and teaching and giving back consistently and being of service. We're very grateful for your time, for your wisdom, for your love of humanity and teaching this information. And I'm just so excited to share this with so many people. And I hope we can do more of this together in the future. I have one final question for you. It's what is your definition of greatness? What is greatness to me is whatever track you took to get to that end point where you can look back and say, I'm leaving this place in a better situation than when I came into it.

1:23:52I think that would really fit that definition pretty much. Bruce, you're amazing. We appreciate you. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you so much for listening.
