QUOTES

10:06 Sah: "Your eyes recalibrate with the darkness and then all of a sudden, you're able to see in the dark. And then you don't have to go frantically look at every corner of the walls finding the light switch. All of a sudden, there is this moment where you know exactly where the light switch is so you just calmly walk yourself over across the room and you turn the light switch on and all of a sudden a dark room is filled with light."

16:23 Sah: "We're not conditioned to seek liberation. We're conditioned to accumulate and in hopes of more stuff will turn into inner liberation. The capitalistic god was at the forefront of my altar at that point."

21:07 Sah: "We have basic goodness. Everyone has basic goodness. yes, there's evil behavior but there are no evil people. People make evil mistakes and destructive and hurtful mistakes but there's no such thing as evil people because the core of our being, our essence is basically good."

53:02 Sah: "We've become so desensitized to our own suffering and the suffering of the world that we've learned to be okay with things that are not okay, we've learned to be comfortable with things that are not okay for us or for the world." 

1:05:07 Sah: "Never put yourself in that space that you are fully healed. Never put yourself in that space that you know all the answers. Never put yourself in that space that you are the wisest person in the room."
