did that be trying to be fresh that's well no i i was trying to because i started thinking too much i didn't want to think you know i didn't want to start creating clever answers i just wanted to do I was just kind of trying to edge in. Then I would just move on to the next. I'd just make an answer, then move on to the next one. So I would be influenced by the thought. I would put out. Please. Um, and I think it's, it may be, you know, both of us know if you've got the same word, so.

[01:07]

Really? That's a really easy name. What, what? In what way? In what way? In what way you park? Um, that was because, uh, I could do it first, and, but I could get out of the hospital in my room, so I could walk in the test, but I would give you the time to the family. So... I've not been so successful in the world. I'm not going to get out of here.

[02:12]

I'm sorry. [...] I've done it quite all the way to give you the same answer again. I did several questions before, and I said, well, that still applies. So it was not, it was not outcome. It worked. It worked to say a lot more than what I was saying. I also really very much like being a questioner.

[03:18]

It really helps me to pack myself and just put the question out the letter I answered first and the answers range over My whole life, mundane stuff, little stuff, big stuff, good questions, good flavors. But it was that moment we used to stop, close your eyes, and feel your body. It was just important to me. I felt so much of my life that I could touch. Childhood stuff, stuff that happens in the morning. That moment in between was fun.

[04:22]

A lot of physical sensation. Yeah. [...] Kristina had a little bit to remind us, reminded us of that lesson and right before this exercise and which, and so I don't know, somehow I walked out of the room like this image of sound waves bouncing, you know, and receiving it. And so when I was Asking the question, which I did first, I was really conscious of being present. I was definitely sitting bored. And then when I was answering, it felt much more like, well, you know, all this stuff doesn't make sense. It does seem like a piece of that experience is that mystery of what Kathleen is thinking.

[05:35]

Is it talking about listening and the sensibility, the feeling of the exchange between people when you listen deeply? Yeah. It's like nothing needs to be fixed. Nothing needs to be fixed. Words float around the room. There's some common themes like It's something that reattends he's a fit for that. I shouldn't support anything that was good. So in these common things, there's birds that live around, they move from die after die.

[06:39]

So something about listening, he's like, something about hearing, hearing the request of the moment, of the person you're interacting with, and responding from something deep, something heartfelt, some way that expresses what's important to you. Like staying true to it, trusting it, learning how to bring it into your relatedness. Something about speaking it out loud, letting it be affirmed, letting it be energized. All of this.

[07:50]

In those spiritual traditions, you know, chanting what's considered to be important, you know, whether it's I vow to do this, the four Bodhisattva vows, or whether it's chanting some sacred saying, you know, that kind of articulation. And as we were offering before, you know, with regards to five faculties, you know, have something that you repeat, that you reconnect to. So that the connection is enduring and as a reference for engagement, it becomes accessible. And then often in responding, something's refined. Something to discover.

[08:58]

You discover more dimensions of that attribute. And then sometimes it's about registering more people. So we have... Do we have a couple of minutes? Not really. Any comments about this whole thing of priorities, values, having them help define each other, and then having them be a basis for how you engage your life? This is what we'll build on in this trimester. Look at it in different ways. How does that happen in your work? How does that happen in your relationship? How do you balance different aspects and demands of your priorities?

[10:08]

How do your priorities, as you wrote them down, reflect or how are they reflected or expressed in what you actually do? And how to be informed by all of that? How can that be a window into your subjective world? How can that show you, reveal to you something about how you're engaging your life? As information, not as material for self-criticism over deciding good and bad. How can it be information? So we didn't write down as a homework, but to look at what do you actually do and how is that in relationship to your priorities?

[11:15]

And of course you're going to have thoughts and opinion divided. But rather than letting it just be in the realm of figuring something out, how can it be in the realm of information? What's it teaching that? Is there one? What's the information? What's the request? What does it bring up as for further exploration. Thank you. Yes. Christina, I'm sorry. Thank you. We haven't been done. We haven't been done. We haven't been done, but you still have a little bra, a little weird. Sorry.

[12:16]

So some of you, I think, understood when we asked you to write down priorities, they looked at how much time am I spending for what, and then put that as priorities. But actually, what we would like you to do is that's a good list. in terms of time or in terms of time commitments you have. But then it would be nice to also have a priority list in which you write the priorities of what you think is really qualitatively important in your life. And that may not be that you spend as much time with, but it has a high priority in terms of qualities to have that list also. The homework for next time, which is also the monthly reflection, would be to write your own personal value-centered or value-based mission statement.

[13:45]

That's why that means value-centered is what comes out from your priorities if you don't just look at it in terms of how much time you have to spend with certain things, but actually your value center priorities or qualities or you want to have in your life. And then what came out from the writing exercise, what would you want to be able to say when your desk is coming and what you don't want to say. That's another way of finding those qualities that are important to you in your life. And then when you think about what are your foundational values and what's How do they inform a mission or a statement about what your mission is in this life?

[14:54]

To like companies, you can do a personable. What you're standing for. What you're going to do when you become president. Your aspiration. Your aspiration. What I want. Yes, what you want. Regardless of where I need to be, regardless of where I need to be, regardless of where I need to be, stick with what I want. Yes. Thank you for that clarification. Good question. What from the bottom of your card you want, regardless of whether you can or not what you want.

[15:57]

But it's less about specifically, I want to do this, be that. It's more a value that holds. That's true. like what we did here. Yes, what we talked about in the dyads and what. And one way you could think about it is the summation of the dyad exchange. And you will get this in the mail too. And then we would also like to invite you to sign up for two more practice discussions during this trimester. One with your group leader, and the other one you can either do also with your group leader, or you can do with any of us in that bread, Nina, Anna, Paul, or I. Did I say Anna?

[16:59]

Yeah, Anna too. Did I say? You did. Okay, I will keep. Anna, Nina, bread, Paul, or I. Okay? So it can be two with your group leader or one with your group leader and one with one of the other, us. And does everyone know how to get in touch with us? Yeah. Very good. And the peer group meeting topic next time that you may have in between is about share and discuss your process of writing your message statement. What's going on while you're thinking about it? What's your experience? Not some of shoulds, but really what happens while you're in the middle of it. And I would encourage you to kind of try, if you can do that, to reopen yourself. When it narrows down and you get bogged down by shoulds and comparisons and I can't do this, kind of step back a little and open up with it.

[18:08]

Really go to your heart. It's about what you want, what you wish you want. And the next meeting is in two weeks. Again, it's Saturday, so that's nice on some level because we have a little more time to hold that because this is really at the bottom of the track. Is that a number nine? No, it's a 1.30 to 4.30. It's an afternoon. The 21st, I think it's sourcing. Is that all? I think so. OK, that is everything. Any questions about the business in your sushi? Yeah. Three days. Yeah. So we want to do sushi, and we can . How many people are planning on doing that three-day sushi? We'll email you.

[19:19]

Well, it may be that we can compromise in some way, because you'll be on a work period, a work session, and a break. So maybe, let's see, we can offer you some way to combine them both. But we'll talk to the person leading the Sasheen Jordan.
