    "Every time I stand in judgement of some person, I know that I am missing some information. There's something about that person that I don't understand. There's something about how they reached those circumstances that I don't understand." really lovely

    What. I try to remember is each of us has a sacred purpose here on earth and I don’t know what theirs us. This helps me to be compassionate & not judge.

    The "beautiful world" has always been in everyone's hearts, but we didn't see it (we don't see it) The awakening has begun! in many. Heart after heart. With "sugar" or without sugar, involving everyone. I want you to know Charles: while listening to you, I cried and then I smiled. Thank you

    Thanks Charles. I always appreciate hearing your words. I just finished listening to Dr. Gabor Mate and his 2 sons discuss what is happening in Gaza and Israel. Dr. Mate is a Jewish holocaust survivor who was a leader in the Zionist movement in his youth, until he dug deeper into Zionism. When I was listening to them, I was thinking it would be interesting to hear you and Dr. Mate speak...not sure who would interview who though :) I hope you are well.

    i always kinda wondered why they hadnt spoken together before. I think I recall Charles talking about how he rejects 'trauma fundamentalism', which is seeing the way a person is presently primarily through the lense of trauma, which is something gabor mate is very good at, heh, so i wonder...

    I'll never understand all the vitriol against Zionism considering that Jews only wanted a small safe space for their homeland and they were being expelled from all of Europe and extinguished just before Israel was established. Would people be happier if the Jews had no country to call their own and no safe space whatsoever?

    I always call it the "X factor". You can have an extremely healthy diet but if you don't have love and support around you, you can't thrive. I've experienced this. Yes, the degeneration is absolutely terrible, I see it too, everywhere, so many people are suffering with chronic health conditions. Myself included. There are so, so many toxins we have to contend with, but I've often thought that "X factor" - the love, the feeling of connection, finding your purpose (much easier said than done) is what human beings really thrive on. Thank you, Charles! I agree that Love does find a way through the tight grip of control.

    Dear Charles what a wonderful message for people to hear. . I have been exploring some leads into the folic acid they are putting in carbohydrates and wondering whether the obesity is not actually a problem with people's diets per se - it's that they are being fed synthetic chemicals that cause liver problems and diabetes.I also think as you say - if we believe in the power of love communicated by that woman to her man - there has to be protective values in being a recipient of that love that overpowers the cruelty of the what looks to me like a deliberate targeting of lower economic people. Your message is kind of Winston Churchilly in the sense of inspiring people through these dark times which are getting darker. Tommorrow here in New Zealand people will be marching against the Government's desire to severely limit the Treaty of Waitangi with our indigenous Maori people. It's so good to hear you speak like this as we go into that day. I feel that the darkness of these times are required for more people to experience the kind of suffering that mainly marginalised people have really only felt because it will tip the balance to allow a fundamental change rather than just another iteration of the old. Go well.your humanity is beautiful. Yinchi Moon

    Thank you, Charles. Insightful, uplifting and inspiring. Makes me ask myself, how can I be more loving to myself and those I care about. Eg feeding myself a healthy snack or meal versus something less wholesome. And, sending a loving prayer to all I meet and see today. And, asking for guidance to ACT in ways that truly help others today. 🥰🙏

    Dear Charles thank you for the energy and encouragement of your words. Inspiring us how we are living daily, affecting all. Our vibration of connection of Love finds a way through optimising outcomes, often in ways we can't perceive or understand. Love aligns us with the flows of the creational impulse of the universe. When we are doing this, the smallest of acts, choices in state of being has far reaching effects. It's all about love. All blessings to you and your loved ones x

    Brilliant! You have clearly shown the way out of the darkness and into the light. Call it what you may, love, spirituality, enlightenment - the way out does not solely rest with our five senses. Rather a reexamination of our humanness and our relationship within and without.

    A deep deep thank you Charles 🙏 Non-judgement AND action. Love AND action. Compassion AND action. Loving action. Active love. Compassion, non judgement, love everyone (including the indoctrinated ones, for they know not what they do), stand in a person's shoes before judging, AND SIMULATANEOUSLY also action to transform from the ground this love-less psychologically-immature heart-denying hierarchical anti-egalitarian profit-driven economic system, that corrupts and degenerates every single aspect of life on this planet. Non-judgement AND action Love AND action Loving action Active love

    My aunty ate cheap food and lived in an inner city high rise. But she showed the young people how to cook and taught them how to budget and set up a credit union with other older women to get the loan sharks off the estate......people might judge her - every few words was an expletive and she left school at 15. Had a 'colourful' life but found a way to support people in ways she could. Visiting her and spending time with her taught me about not judging people but I forget far too often so thanks for this beauty-full reminder

    Every human being will be beneficial to society if their psychological and physical needs are met. Every human being will be a burden or a danger to society if their needs aren't met. Raising awareness about this is how we establish a shared goal for all of humanity: meeting EVERYONE'S emotional and physical needs UNCONDITIONALLY. If know the theory behind altruism and want to expand its practice all you have to do is get 100 people in your town to join an altruistic network. That is enough to kickstart a paradigm shift. 100 people is enough to create the network effects to get the ball rolling

    You are such a beautiful man Charles. What I mean when I say that is 'I am your mirror'! I am a reflection of your willingness to see beauty and love again and again. Every time you radiate love and kindness it potentiates my own love and kindness and I in turn radiate that to others. The homeopathy of love! I am truly grateful. A dear friend of mine says this, "I am love with you".

Real peace comes with the total neutrality only!! Even if you go on the side of Peace you would be in war with war! Peace, only wants to be in peace, it CAN not be on only one side! No Sides, no blame! Innerpeace in each of us is the starting point of peace on earth! Thank you for your beeing!

    Social media, KZread, etc. are good in that people like you can share peaceful information. However, often, the comments reflect the anger that sits inside people. I don't read comments that reflect inner peace, love for oneself and for one another.
