It's Trump's Birthday! Do you want me to sing Happy Birthday to Donald Trump? Or do you want us to sing it to him in the style of Marilyn Monroe? Is this a witch hunt or a political smear campaign? What are the real reasons behind the FBI spying on Donald Trump, and why is he being targeted the way Julian Assange, Edward Snowden and Edward Snowden have been targeted? And why is this happening in the first place, in the face of a man who is a genuine enemy of the establishment and an opponent of the old ways of doing things?

00:00:01.000Thanks for joining me on this voyage to truth and freedom on this day of all days.
00:00:06.000You might think it's just a Wednesday.
00:00:07.000You might think it's a glorious gift to be alive at any time.
00:00:11.000You might think there's a limitless, unknowable force behind the material world, haunting it with great majesty, but beyond even that, It is Donald Trump's birthday.
00:00:21.000We did a poll earlier and we asked you specifically, precisely, whether or not you wanted me to sing Happy Birthday to Donald Trump.
00:00:29.000I'm going to reveal the results of that in just a moment.
00:00:32.000If you're watching us on YouTube, you're going to have to eventually click over onto Rumble because do you know what we believe in here?
00:01:56.000This is a paradigm shift in real time.
00:01:59.000Is the prosecution of Donald Trump... Let me know what you think about this in the chat.
00:02:03.000Is this about justice or is this about eliminating political opponents of the establishment?
00:02:08.000Whether you're a MAGA person or not, whether you love or loathe Donald Trump, do you think the utilisation of the Espionage Act, the same act that currently sees Julian Assange in jail without trial, Edward Snowden exiled for revealing what we all sort of suspected and now know, and the fact is it's got worse, that the American government are spying without permission on their own citizens and they want to carry on doing it and now the Espionage Act He's being dragged up from its crypt once more to attack that great opponent of the establishment, or a cipher, an emblem of the establishment, depending on what you think, Donald Trump.
00:06:08.000If you're watching us on YouTube and you're one of the many people who doesn't like Donald Trump and think he epitomizes everything that's wrong with American democracy and global politics, then you have to acknowledge in a moment like that, look at the easy breezy communicative style that he utilizes.
00:06:21.000Imagine Joe Biden who's got allegations of his own.
00:06:31.000Imagine the way that he's going to tackle that.
00:06:33.000It's not going to be by making genuinely amusing remarks.
00:06:36.000Even if you loathe Trump and you're not all MAGA and you loathe some of the things he said and he stands for, you have to recognise that the conditions that led to Trump's rise still have not been addressed.
00:06:46.000hypocrisy, corruption, a donor class dominating the political space, the Democrats becoming
00:06:52.000the party of the military-industrial complex, legitimizing and justifying perpetual war,
00:06:57.000freedom fighters like Snowden and Assange banged up, exiled and lost their testimony,
00:08:22.000Maybe it's a crime for Donald Trump to fill up his bathroom at Mar-a-Lago with boxes of
00:08:27.000secrets, but is it a greater crime that when Edward Snowden reveals to you the extent of
00:08:33.000surveillance Edward Snowden has to go into exile?
00:08:35.000When the imperialist project of the United States of America, and I don't mean American people, I don't mean American people, I mean the people that act on behalf of globalist corporations, when their agenda is revealed through Assange's revelations and WikiLeaks, He has to be smeared.
00:08:49.000He's still in prison right now as we're speaking to you Julian Assange is in Belmarsh.
00:08:53.000And also look at some of the other things that are not considered crimes.
00:08:56.000And to show you we're not biased, to show you we don't care about anything other than truth and freedom, we've even included Trump.
00:09:29.000And in my view, the happy fact that he's a person of color in the White House at a time where America clearly needed to address cultural and issues around ethnicity.
00:09:41.000What do you feel about the illegal war started in Iraq, which we now know was precisely that, an illegal war?
00:09:48.000Or, indeed, Truman dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
00:09:52.000And, a little closer to home, but always close to the crypt, it's the great Dodderer himself, it's Hunter's pappy, it's Burisma's greatest agent... Allegedly!
00:10:41.000One of the things we talk about continually are the times that we live in and the way that they are defined by conflagration, conflict and doubt.
00:10:50.000An inability for people to engage in a good faith discourse about the way that power might be utilised and used.
00:10:56.000The ability to perhaps transcend division and find new forms of unity.
00:11:02.000I wonder how your experience as a member of the counter-cultural movement that Was that one question?
00:11:08.000Well, you know, they say that the state of the world is the state of our minds.
00:11:12.000in bringing a different moral and spiritual dimension to something that perhaps gets lost in secular rhetoric
00:11:48.000It's no longer to help people overcome suffering.
00:11:51.000It's about creating more suffering and getting more personal power in the world, egocentric power.
00:11:58.000So, living in India, of course, the politics there is, you know, a hundred times worse than the West.
00:12:05.000But living in India with the saints and the yogis, it's a different experience.
00:12:12.000They help you touch that place in you that's real love and that you can feel actually help you in your life to be a better person and not create suffering for yourself or other people.
00:12:29.000Your experiences in India with Neem Karoli Baba are obviously well documented.
00:12:36.000I've seen you, I feel like, on stage with Ram Dass talking about very exciting mystical experiences, his ability for prophecy.
00:12:45.000I suppose the reason such teachers are so powerful is because they suggest and somehow paradoxically
00:12:52.000embody ethereal principles that seem difficult to access and are really, really needed
00:13:00.000now. Can you tell us an account of your experiences with your teacher that demonstrated to
00:13:06.000you the potential for the real mystical? Examples of how he engaged with you and
00:13:12.000demonstrated to you the possibility of other ways of regarding reality beyond materialism,
00:13:18.000Yeah, you know, let's talk about Ram Dass for a minute because as a Western teacher,
00:13:28.000we see him in a certain kind of way that's kind of very limiting.
00:13:31.000So one day, Maharaji, Neem Karoli Baba had told Ram Dass not to touch money, and to give me the keys to the car, and that he couldn't touch money or do worldly things.
00:14:34.000And Ram Dass said, I can't stand impurity in myself, and I can't stand it in other people.
00:14:41.000So Maharaji kind of looked him up and down a couple of times, and he said, I don't see anything impure.
00:14:49.000And then Ram Dass once again broke down crying.
00:14:52.000He said, Ram Dass, love everyone and tell the truth.
00:14:57.000Ram Dass says, the truth is, I don't love everyone.
00:15:02.000Maharaja said, Ram Dass, love everyone and tell the truth.
00:15:07.000And at that moment, Ram Dass kind of realized what the rest of his life was going to be about.
00:15:15.000And by the end of his life, after sitting on a wheelchair for 20 years, which is enough to destroy anybody's spirit, he actually got to a place where he loved everyone.
00:15:29.000He used to keep a picture of a bush up there in the old days, you know, on his puja, on his altar.
00:15:37.000And it was extraordinary to be around him.
00:15:40.000And so I've seen that What we can overcome and what it feels like when you do overcome, when we do overcome our selfish bullshit.
00:15:57.000It's natural for us to feel those feelings of agitation and disdain and separateness and encouraging for me to hear that not only are those compromising feelings included in spiritual discourse, they are perhaps it's Yeah.
00:16:15.000primary subject, the reason that we need spirituality is because it is hard to be a person in the
00:16:22.000world. It is hard to feel jealousy, it is hard to feel heartbreak, it is hard to feel
00:16:27.000yearning and longing. The commodification of spirituality has been obviously a broad
00:17:16.000People can use anything to hurt themselves and hurt other people.
00:17:21.000But Spiritual practice is about calming your ass down and trying to let go of the programs that are running in us, like all those things you mentioned—jealousy, greed, shame, fear, anger—those are programs that have been put into us by the world, by our karmic situation.
00:17:40.000To uncover those programs and uncover what's underneath them, that's simply what it's about.
00:19:19.000But by chance, I tripped and fell into something that was Extraordinarily beautiful and extraordinarily powerful, which was meeting, you know, Neem Koirali Baba.
00:19:30.000Yes, and I suppose a great teacher can transmit phenomena that you may not otherwise have received.
00:19:38.000Primal Colin too has a question for you.
00:19:41.000He says, how do you stop people taking advantage of goodwill, Krishna Das?
00:19:50.000You know, what other people do is not We're not responsible for that.
00:19:54.000We're trying to be responsible for our own actions.
00:19:57.000If other people choose to hurt us or try to take advantage of us, you know, that's their problem.
00:20:06.000They're creating suffering for themselves.
00:20:40.000Every time you let go, the neural pathways in the brain get deeper and it gets easier to let go.
00:20:49.000We should practice letting go when we have opportunities like for in small trivial examples like being stuck in traffic being an obvious one and minor conflicts if we can surrender our will in that moment it's possible that it will open new terrains within the psyche and perhaps beyond even the psyche that will grant us a new power when it comes to dealing with immense displeasure and opposition.
00:21:15.000Well, I try to, about driving, you know, I try to see every driver as His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
00:21:22.000Oh, you just cut me off, Your Holiness?
00:22:11.000There's a bit more information about those workshops available for you still.
00:22:15.000We have got so much more to offer you this week.
00:22:19.000On Friday we have an exclusive interview with presidential candidate Marianne Williamson.
00:22:24.000Excitingly, her background is within the world of spiritual discourse and we ask her about how those principles are applicable in the field of politics.
