know, a slippery, slimy energy that comes
0:02
to create havoc. I
0:04
like it. Cuddies are usually
0:06
on the person who gamungas the
0:08
environment. We're up.

1:04
So here's what happened. Um, just
1:06
in case you're just tuning in, we had an
1:09
issue for some reason with YouTube and we had
1:11
to go over to another link. So sorry. Now
1:13
people are like, hi, Yama. So come on over
1:15
to the new link on YouTube. Yama and I
1:17
are talking about the journey that I've had on the
1:19
LIE. Um, I got
1:21
home and one of the smoke detector batteries needs
1:23
changing. So if you hear that little beep, don't
1:25
think I'm lazy and I don't change it. I
1:27
just walked into the house and I'm trying to
1:29
get this to you. So thank you, Mr. Yanla.
1:31
Good to see you. Bless you. you
1:33
always. Blessings to you. Blessings. So when
1:35
you have a day like that, what do you do?
1:37
Do you just surrender? What are you saying? Well,
1:40
absolutely I surrender. All
1:42
things are just as they need to be. You
1:44
know, we set up the schedule. I
1:46
remember when I was overworked and
1:48
over committed and running around with
1:50
my hair on fire. I said,
1:52
oh God help me. And God said,
1:55
but you made your own schedule. That's
1:57
true. Did he
1:59
help you? Yeah, I changed
2:01
my schedule. Let
2:06
me just read this and then we'll talk
2:08
so I know on Fridays We usually have our
2:10
sour lemon special and I love them and
2:12
I know you love them But this week was
2:14
just so long so dark and so depressing
2:16
and I've been trying to get a yamla on
2:18
actually you guys have been requesting a yamla
2:20
on on YouTube you've been requesting on Instagram
2:22
on Facebook and also on tiktok
2:24
and so we have a yamla a
2:27
yamla as we head up at
2:29
first I said a yamla fix my
2:31
life, but then I said a
2:33
yamla fix When I
2:35
got on, she said, Yana, fix
2:37
my country. So
2:39
we want to uplift your
2:41
spirit, if we can. I
2:43
need some soul lifting here. And
2:46
she's the one woman that can
2:48
do it. So Yana. Yes,
2:53
say something. And I think we need a prayer or
2:55
something because. We're
2:58
not
3:01
lost, Don. with
3:03
simply being awakened. We
3:06
have lived for so long
3:08
in a level of codependent
3:10
dysfunction. Those
3:12
systems are coming down and we feel
3:14
it and it's frightening. And
3:17
then unfortunately many of
3:19
the leaders that we look
3:21
to for guidance are fear
3:23
mongers. And so
3:25
the energy of fear is
3:27
so prevalent. But we're
3:30
not lost, we are
3:32
simply being awakened to what
3:34
is no longer appropriate or
3:36
acceptable for who we are.
3:39
Who we are as individuals,
3:41
who we are collectively. You
3:44
know, I taught a class recently
3:46
and I was talking about
3:48
the construct of the human body.
3:50
The number of cells, the
3:52
number of molecules, the number
3:55
of energy. And if
3:57
you've ever heard of the
3:59
God Memorandum by Agmandino,
4:02
one of the statements in there is that
4:04
there was enough
4:06
atomic power within you to
4:08
destroy the world's greatest cities
4:10
and rebuild them. And
4:12
yet we walk around with our
4:15
hair on fire. I
4:18
know we feel it. I
4:20
know the confusion, the
4:22
grief, the unraveling of the
4:24
system, and use the
4:26
big thing, people, the expectation
4:29
of ruin. But
4:31
we take the power and we
4:33
affirm that. Oh, this is bad. Oh,
4:35
this is horrible. Oh, what's going
4:37
to happen? But what are you creating
4:39
with those thoughts and those words? And
4:42
we're still looking out and not looking
4:44
in. The noise of the
4:46
world can drown out the still
4:48
small voice. I promise you, if
4:51
you get still and go
4:53
within, you will be
4:55
guided moment by moment. When you text me
4:57
and ask me to do this show today, I said,
4:59
oh my God, I'll be on the plane. And
5:02
you said, oh, I'm so sorry. You know what
5:04
I did? I took an earlier plane. I
5:09
didn't get on the LIE with you. I was
5:11
in New York. Five
5:15
o 'clock at on the three o 'clock and
5:17
I'm home. I love you
5:19
for that Thank you
5:22
Thank you for that and you
5:24
must something must you knew I needed
5:26
this and you knew that the audience
5:28
are you know almost 700 ,000 folks
5:30
who are who are a part of them
5:32
Lemonation here needed that they have been asking
5:34
for it every time I speak to someone
5:36
every time I do a private chat when
5:39
I look at the comments Even the hateful
5:41
comments right even the the trolls but every
5:43
time I look at the comments that are
5:45
speak to people even on the street It's
5:47
like we all need some group therapy. We
5:50
all need group therapy. Everyone's
5:52
in need. Well, you
5:54
know what in 2017
5:56
I was given
5:58
a spiritual directive to awaken 1
6:00
million people And I
6:02
started the process and it fell
6:04
off. I started it again
6:06
in 2020, awakened to a million
6:09
people. And I know a
6:11
million is 10 million, but to
6:13
get a million people involved
6:15
in the conscious choice to awaken,
6:18
awaken to the power, awaken to
6:20
their light, awaken to a new
6:22
way of being, awaken to being
6:24
more, doing more, having more. And
6:26
so I'm launching Awakening One Million
6:28
today. So when you called me
6:30
and said, do this, and I
6:32
was on the plane, I said,
6:34
wait a minute. There's some
6:36
of my million people over there with Don
6:38
Lemon. Awakening, the
6:40
process of shifting your
6:42
perspective of who you are
6:44
and what's possible. I
6:47
don't know, this looks crazy. But have
6:49
you ever cleaned out your closet, Don?
6:51
Yes. What does
6:54
it look like? It
6:56
looks good. Look, I am. I cleaned
6:58
out the closet somewhat. Well, I
7:00
did. I cleaned out the closet last
7:02
week. I bought a new rolling
7:04
rack to put in there. But I
7:06
mean, right. And then I cleaned
7:08
out my closet to come here. Oh,
7:11
OK. Things like some winter things and stuff
7:13
to like sort of clean up. But then, Yamla,
7:15
you are speaking to me because I was
7:17
just on with my mother. And
7:19
my mother is dealing with, well, I mean, she's,
7:21
you know, she thinks she knows everything. But
7:24
we've been dealing with a sick family member. My
7:26
sister had a stroke. My mom wasn't at
7:28
home. She was staying with my sister. And then
7:30
so lately she has been back home because
7:32
she needed a break. And my
7:34
niece is staying with her to
7:36
just, you know, and her husband
7:38
and, you know, her kids are
7:41
just staying with my mom for
7:43
now. and
7:45
my niece said mom you know you have
7:47
to live in this house you haven't been here
7:49
in a while and you know things start
7:51
to go wrong right you know you got to
7:53
use the air conditioner right you got to
7:55
use the TV or you got to use the
7:57
fire everything you got to use it and
7:59
I said and she said Don you don't want
8:01
me to tell you my niece's I mean
8:03
as I was driving here my niece said Don
8:05
you don't want me to tell you about
8:07
her closet And
8:10
I said, mom, you should get in there. You got
8:12
to clean out that closet because as you clean out
8:14
that closet, you will allow some things to flow into
8:16
your life and some of the things will flow out.
8:18
And she said, oh, really? And I said, you think
8:20
you know everything, don't you? And she said, you do
8:22
too. And I said, no, I don't. I know that
8:24
I don't know everything. That's what I do. So
8:27
I'm sure she's watching. So
8:29
what do you say? Talk to us about cleaning out your closet
8:31
because you do allow things to come in. You
8:33
know, it's not just to
8:35
clean out the closet. It's the
8:37
chaos that happens. in the
8:39
process. All change
8:41
is preceded by chaos. Chaos,
8:43
that change doesn't happen. It's
8:46
a process. And when you're
8:48
cleaning that closet, our stuff is on
8:50
the floor, stuff you think you're gonna
8:52
keep, stuff you want to give away,
8:54
it's in the bed, you stepping over
8:56
it to find the phone. It's an
8:58
absolute hot mess. We're in
9:00
a hot mess because we're cleaning
9:02
out, not just out of the
9:04
society, because Don, we you know
9:06
we had just about hit rock
9:08
bottom with our behavior and the
9:10
things that we're doing when I
9:12
think about I think of everything
9:14
in the world what disturbs me
9:17
more than anything is children killing
9:19
children that we can send somebody
9:21
to space but we can't take
9:23
a gun out of kids hand
9:25
this is a problem it says
9:27
that we are totally twisted we
9:29
are you know stuff is really
9:31
twisted and we can do that
9:33
and that there are people who
9:36
are so concerned about their
9:38
little individual rights that
9:40
they put people at risk.
9:42
The fact that people
9:44
are walking around suffering in
9:46
silence, that their minds
9:48
are just not aligned and
9:50
integrated, and we'll lock them
9:52
up in prison before we give them
9:54
some help. This is a problem. A problem
9:56
in the richest country in the world, 64
9:59
% of children have food
10:01
insecurity, that schools don't
10:04
have books. that
10:06
we can, we'll lock somebody up
10:08
for stealing our money, but it's okay
10:10
for a man to be his
10:12
wife. You
10:14
know, we're so incongruent with who
10:16
we say we are. Things
10:18
have to change and we have
10:20
to awaken. to a new
10:22
way of being because we've been
10:24
entrenched in this dysfunction for
10:26
so long. So I am really
10:28
excited that the closet is
10:31
being cleaned out. I'm not excited
10:33
that people are afraid because
10:35
they've lost their jobs. I'm not
10:37
excited about how this is
10:39
happening. However, here Don, hear me.
10:41
I'm listening. This person was
10:44
elected by the people of this country.
10:46
He is not in this alone. He's showing
10:48
us who we are. But we're
10:50
so busy looking at him. We're not looking
10:52
at ourselves. When people
10:55
start complaining about this one and that one,
10:57
I say, well, how do you do that?
10:59
How do you bully? How do you lie? How
11:01
do you force people into your way?
11:03
How do you do it? Because until
11:05
you clean that up in here, you
11:07
give someone like that permission to be
11:09
your leader. So
11:13
I know that
11:15
it's hard, but I'm
11:17
asking everyone to
11:19
consider where Is there
11:21
a truth in me that I'm not willing
11:23
to tell? Where is
11:25
there a power that I'm not willing
11:27
to activate? Where is there
11:29
an attachment that I'm not willing to let
11:32
go of? The only way
11:34
we're going to clean it up, Don,
11:36
is we have to start individually
11:38
with ourselves. Because when we, something like
11:40
that, what's going on out there
11:42
now in the government, wouldn't be acceptable
11:44
to 76 % of this country. It
11:47
was acceptable. What
11:49
do you do with something like this? Let
11:52
me put this up. This is a this
11:54
is a White House edited today They edited
11:56
a New York Times article and this is
11:58
some you know My someone sent it to
12:00
to meet my social team and they said
12:02
would you like to respond to this and
12:04
I just I did not senators meet meet
12:06
with wrongly deported Marilyn Mann and El Salvador
12:08
and Then this is from the White House's
12:11
official account. They said fix it for you
12:13
New York Times and oh by the way
12:15
Chris Van Hollen who is the senator who
12:17
went to meet with him you're
12:19
never coming back." And so
12:21
they said, Senator meets with
12:23
deported, then they put MS
12:25
-13, a legal alien, who's
12:28
never coming back. That is
12:30
so, to me, that was so
12:32
hateful that I did not even care
12:34
to elevate it by responding to
12:36
it. Well, I'm glad we see it
12:38
because people are walking around with
12:40
that in their hearts. You meet
12:42
them in the supermarket. These are the people
12:44
that cut you off on the freeway. These
12:46
are the people that are still walking around
12:48
calling the n -word or the c -word. These
12:50
are the people that are beating up transgenders.
12:52
These are the people that still think gay
12:54
people are going to hell. It's
12:56
in the world. So what do we do? We
12:58
don't want to see it. We don't want
13:00
to know it. For me, I'm going to bless
13:02
that person. I'm going to say, God, shine
13:04
your light. Awaken them. Awaken whoever
13:06
that is. Because see, I
13:09
grew up. And I was trained
13:11
and ordained that at all
13:13
times in all situations, there's nobody
13:15
but you and God in
13:17
the room. It's either
13:19
a reflection of who
13:21
you are or a manifestation
13:23
of God. So this
13:25
is how somebody feels either about themselves
13:27
or about God. It don't have nothing
13:29
to do with me. I don't have
13:31
anything to do with that. So what do
13:33
I do as a being of
13:35
light, as a teacher of light? As
13:37
a spiritual technician, I'm going to
13:39
say, God, I call the
13:41
presence and the power of your
13:43
light, your truth, your
13:46
love into the mind, heart,
13:48
and soul of somebody's
13:50
child who is misaligned
13:52
enough to say that about
13:54
somebody else's child. Help
13:57
us. Help us. Divine
13:59
light, divine intelligence. That's all
14:01
we can do now. Why?
14:03
Our humanness has failed. It's
14:06
failed. Are you not
14:08
aware that our human is high poachy?
14:10
Yeah, he's just wrong. Okay. So
14:12
just so you know, this is my
14:14
senior. I don't know if I
14:16
gotta this is my senior and he's 16
14:18
and he had pneumonia over the holidays. So
14:20
he kind of he hasn't been the same.
14:23
But he's just walking around roaming is in
14:25
a little diaper. I'm
14:29
just holding him because I don't want him
14:31
walking around and just kind of aimlessly roaming. He
14:33
looks like my cat. Tap,
14:35
tap, tap on the floor. You know what I
14:37
mean? And he's just. I
14:39
could put him on the couch and he'd probably lay
14:41
there. But anyways. Yeah,
14:44
look, I want to. And I
14:46
feel so bad. You know,
14:48
I listened a little bit to the news radio
14:50
as I was coming. Then I finally to turn
14:52
on John Coltrane. And I was like, you know,
14:54
this is I believe that might be a little
14:56
bit better. But the people who
14:58
are demonizing this man for, you
15:01
know, I don't know if he's
15:03
a member of MS -13. I
15:05
don't know anything, except I haven't
15:07
seen any evidence or proof. And
15:09
so if the evidence shows that, okay,
15:11
then, you know, the actions that, not the
15:13
actions that were taken, he should be
15:15
deported and he should be dealt with. But
15:18
in this country, we have to have
15:20
due process or we're no longer American. We're
15:22
no longer American. We don't have due
15:24
process. And so I believe What
15:26
if this man is totally innocent?
15:28
Okay, fine. But if he is
15:30
guilty, they could have taken a
15:32
beat to make sure and to
15:34
also give us, you know, some
15:36
assurances at, you know, the American
15:38
people, some assurances that you are
15:40
following the law. And I feel
15:42
my heart goes out whether you're,
15:44
you know, documented or undocumented because
15:46
everybody has feelings. And I want
15:48
you to listen a little bit
15:50
to this man's wife. Good
15:52
morning, America. And then I want to get your
15:54
response to it. He started Maryland
15:56
Senator Chris Van Hollen. He flew to see
15:59
your husband Wednesday. He released a photo of
16:01
the two of them last night. What was
16:03
it like for you to see that photo? It
16:10
was very overwhelming. The
16:13
most important thing for me, my
16:15
children, his mom, his brother,
16:17
his sibling, was to see
16:19
him alive and we saw him
16:21
alive. It
16:24
was very overwhelming. I think for all
16:26
of us, we were all happy to see
16:28
him alive. What were you told your
16:30
husband said in that meeting? Can
16:36
you repeat your question? I'm sorry. What were
16:38
you told your husband said in that meeting?
16:46
It was just a message of love. So
16:49
tell me a little bit about your husband.
16:51
How long have you two been together and
16:53
what was he, what was, what has your
16:55
life been like with him? We've
17:01
been together over seven years.
17:04
It's been amazing. He's
17:06
very loving husband, amazing
17:08
father. And
17:11
we were just young
17:13
parents trying to live
17:15
the American dream. And
17:18
we know you were living that
17:20
dream until March 12th. That's when your
17:22
husband was detained and sent back.
17:24
Thank you, Andy, for that. Look,
17:26
we're all human beings. That's all I'll
17:28
have to say. And everybody goes through trials
17:31
and tribulations. And, you know,
17:33
you were in an abusive relationship, right?
17:35
Oh, yeah, absolutely. And so
17:37
there was this abusive relationship. I
17:39
was a welfare mom. I
17:41
lived it. projects. I was a teenage
17:43
mom. Daniel Moynihan called me because
17:45
I was walking, living and raising my
17:47
kids when he said that black
17:49
women on welfare were a menace to
17:51
society. This me. Yeah.
17:55
So what interests me is that
17:58
we call him a MS, MS
18:00
13 or 15 or whoever the hell
18:02
it is. Before we say he's a
18:04
father and a child. But
18:06
it's also very interesting to me
18:09
that the majority of people being uh
18:11
called called uh dangerous uh
18:13
black and brown people that
18:15
doesn't escape me either you
18:17
know but who wants to
18:19
talk about that who wants
18:21
to say that you know
18:23
that we've been silenced for
18:25
so long we're talking about
18:27
due process yes he deserves
18:29
due process we all do
18:31
and some of the people
18:33
who spent 20 and 30
18:35
years on death row got
18:37
due process hmm our system
18:39
is corrupt And
18:41
it's falling apart. And
18:44
we're weeping over it, as
18:46
opposed to taking a breath
18:48
and saying, OK, what
18:50
do we need to do
18:52
to have this done humanely
18:54
with compassion? This
18:56
is not about supporting gangs
18:59
and illegal aliens. That's not what
19:01
this is about. There are
19:03
some illegal aliens running our government.
19:05
But we won't have that
19:07
conversation. There's
19:10
there's some criminals running our government.
19:12
Okay. So I'm saying certain things
19:14
that that are just misaligned, unkind,
19:16
unloving. We say, oh, that's the
19:19
way it's always been. And then
19:21
other things we say, no, that's
19:23
wrong. That's bad. Either it's all
19:25
misaligned and incongruing and we're willing
19:27
to tell the truth about it
19:29
or not. And so what's happening,
19:32
my beloved Don, and I know
19:34
it's hard. That's why you got
19:36
to go in. you got to
19:38
get your strength from within. I
19:41
don't work for the government, but
19:43
many of the people that attend
19:45
my classes and support me, many
19:47
of my staff work for the
19:49
government, so it's impacting me too.
19:51
But the government is not my
19:53
source and my supply. I
19:55
don't look to the government to take care
19:58
of me. There's something greater and grander than I'm
20:00
a lean on. So we've
20:02
got to understand what we're
20:04
seeing out there. is a
20:06
manifestation of what's in here.
20:08
Maybe not you, maybe not
20:10
me, maybe not any of
20:12
your listeners. But again, our
20:14
country is being led by
20:16
individuals that were elected by
20:18
76 % of this country. What
20:21
we're seeing done is a reflection
20:23
of who we are on the
20:25
inside. And I say we because
20:27
there's only one mind, one life.
20:29
It's either a reflection of me
20:31
or a reflection of God. And
20:34
everything that I see in the world I
20:36
can own a part of it. I was
20:38
a bully. I was a liar. I
20:40
was an unkind, unloving, unforgiving
20:42
person. There are people probably listening
20:44
right here who ain't spoke
20:46
to their mother in three years
20:48
because they don't like something
20:50
or their sister or their brother.
20:52
You don't think that matters
20:55
in the overall scheme of things?
20:57
So we're awakening to just
20:59
how powerful we are. There
21:04
are people like this in the
21:06
world. And I to say, I think
21:08
that there are lawmakers who are
21:10
really trying to do the right thing,
21:12
Ms. Yama. And I think Christopher
21:14
Van Hollen is one of them. Senator
21:16
Van Hollen, I should say, is
21:18
one of them. And he talked about
21:21
how this gentleman, this man, has
21:23
not been allowed to talk to anyone.
21:25
And so here it is. Listen to this. No
21:28
ability to communicate
21:30
with anybody in
21:32
the outside. world.
21:35
His conversation with me
21:37
was the first communication he'd
21:40
had with anybody outside
21:42
of prison since he
21:44
was abducted. He
21:46
said he felt very sad
21:48
about being in a prison
21:50
because he had not committed
21:52
any crimes. When
21:55
I asked him what was the
21:57
one thing he would ask for
21:59
in addition to his freedom, He
22:02
said he wanted to talk to
22:04
his wife, Jennifer. I
22:08
told him I would work
22:10
very hard to make that
22:12
happen. I told
22:14
him that in addition to his
22:17
family, that all of you
22:19
who are here today were fighting
22:21
to bring him home. So
22:25
here's my question. What are we going to
22:27
do? What are
22:29
we going to do? Just sit and
22:31
complain and talk about how horrible
22:33
it is, because we're still all over
22:35
TikTok and twerking. We're still all
22:37
over Facebook, talking about each other. We're
22:40
still running up and down. You
22:42
know, you got to hit where the
22:44
money is. If we
22:46
understood how really powerful we are, I
22:48
know they're talking about the blackout against
22:50
Target, but then people, I got to go
22:52
to Target. Do you really? What are
22:54
we willing to do? to
22:56
create the change. How
22:58
long will we sustain it?
23:01
We'll do it for three days or
23:03
two weeks or on our day
23:05
off. And then we go right back
23:08
to accommodating the dysfunction. What
23:10
are we willing to do? It's just I
23:12
put up a post many, many months ago. I
23:14
said, America is an abused woman. She's
23:17
an abused woman. I
23:19
understand that. I live for nine
23:21
years in an abusive marriage. And
23:23
I know what it looks like and
23:25
what it feels like, and how you jockey. You
23:28
never know when the next punch is
23:30
coming. You just never know, Don. You
23:34
don't know what's going to knock when you're
23:36
going to get knocked out of the bed. You
23:38
don't know. And you learn
23:40
to accommodate the dysfunction as opposed
23:42
to having a strong know, as
23:45
opposed to being willing to sleep on
23:47
a park bench rather than sleeping in bed
23:49
with somebody that's whipping you behind. I
23:52
know what that looks like. Been
23:54
there done that. So the question
23:56
becomes, we can't just sit around
23:58
saying how hard, what are we
24:00
willing to do collectively? What
24:03
are we willing to do? There
24:05
should no elected official should be able to
24:07
walk in their office without a thousand people
24:09
being there. But oh, I got to go
24:11
to work. Got to pay the rent. Well,
24:16
look. You
24:19
say again, I cut you off.
24:21
I said we are being awakened
24:23
to really how we accommodate the
24:25
dysfunction and how we're more comfortable
24:28
complaining than we are putting our
24:30
foot on down. I wanted to
24:32
say on somebody's neck, but I
24:34
don't want to say that between
24:36
putting our foot down and saying,
24:39
this is unacceptable. On
24:43
this show that I can't tell
24:45
people what to do. But
24:47
I know that you, and I
24:49
don't know what anyone's particular personal
24:51
situations are or what someone's personal
24:53
situation is. You
24:56
have to be willing to sacrifice
24:58
something. When we, you
25:00
know, our good brother, John
25:03
Lewis said, you got to
25:05
get into trouble. Do
25:08
we need good trouble? Is that going to help? Will
25:10
that make a difference? Absolutely. And
25:13
what you gotta understand, why
25:15
these people got lost, why people
25:17
are losing their jobs and
25:19
why the, what are those things,
25:21
taxes, tariffs, whatever, it's all
25:23
about money. It's all
25:25
about money. When they say make
25:27
America good again, they're really saying
25:29
make America rich again, but to
25:31
whose benefit when children aren't eating
25:33
and people are sleeping in the
25:35
street, to whose benefit? And it's
25:37
all a part of the system.
25:39
So we need to really look
25:41
at this system and how we
25:43
participate in allowing it to dishonor
25:46
us, to dishonor us,
25:48
to abuse us. We're
25:50
scared they're going to cut social
25:52
security. That shouldn't even be a
25:54
question. That shouldn't even be
25:56
a question. If somebody looked like they're
25:58
thinking about cutting social security, they should no
26:00
longer be able to get into their
26:02
congressional office. You said 1
26:04
,000 people should be at their office protesting by
26:06
the time they get there in the morning.
26:09
laid out on the ground, got to walk over
26:11
my body. Amen. Amen. I'm
26:13
just with my sign waving outside.
26:16
We're not willing to go to jail
26:18
for it the way Martin and John
26:20
Lewis and people who fall for civil
26:22
rights, the way women were willing to
26:24
fight. We're not willing to do that.
26:26
We're too comfortable. comfortable. Oh
26:28
my gosh. We're too comfortable now. We're not
26:30
willing. And we have to remember the
26:32
things that you're fighting for because Senator
26:35
Van Hollen says this is bigger
26:37
than one man. Watch. Yeah.
26:39
But as I said at the
26:41
beginning, this case is
26:43
not only about one man
26:45
as important as that is. It
26:48
is about protecting fundamental
26:50
freedoms and the fundamental principle
26:52
in the Constitution or
26:54
due process that protects everybody
26:56
who resides in America. This
26:59
should not be an issue
27:01
for Republicans or Democrats. This
27:04
is an issue for every American
27:06
who cares about our Constitution, who
27:08
cares about personal liberty, who cares
27:10
about Duke Process, and who
27:13
cares about what makes America
27:15
so different, which is adherence
27:17
to all of those
27:19
things. This is an American
27:21
issue. Here's
27:24
a challenge, Don. And
27:27
this is not an indictment. I
27:29
mean, I just. as a spiritual technician,
27:31
I see it and receive it
27:33
differently. That average
27:35
human being has been so
27:37
convinced that they're powerless, so
27:40
convinced. So we
27:42
really don't know the power that
27:44
we have, the
27:47
power to create change, the
27:49
power to make conscious choice. I
27:51
mean, we do it in our individual
27:53
lives. I did it, stayed in a place
27:55
that was unhealthy and harmful, subjected
27:58
my children to that. because
28:00
I didn't believe I could
28:02
do any different. It wasn't
28:04
until I became willing to
28:06
lose everything that I gained
28:08
everything. As long
28:11
as I was attached, I
28:13
couldn't gain anything. I
28:15
had been so raptured by what you're
28:17
saying. I forgot that I got to
28:19
pay the bills, Ms. Benzen. I'm
28:23
going to put you in the, we're going to,
28:25
we'll get back to you in two seconds.
28:27
So we're, this is, I'm so happy that we
28:29
have the sponsors that we have this week. I'm
28:31
telling you, there are no coincidences
28:34
that I think the universe is
28:36
speaking. Yala Vanzan had
28:38
a different flight time plan and changed
28:40
it because she, you
28:42
know, I got in touch with her
28:44
because I know you guys needed to
28:46
hear from her. And usually we do
28:48
like a funny special, you know, the,
28:50
the sour lemon of the week, but
28:53
I think we need some healing of
28:55
the week. So with that said, we
28:57
are proud that the Dallaman show is
28:59
sponsored by better help. Okay. So you
29:01
guys know how I feel about therapy.
29:03
I think this is therapy right now.
29:05
It's about group therapy. Yalla Van Zant
29:07
is involved in therapy and she's on
29:09
this show. It is just as important
29:11
as your physical health. And so traditional
29:13
in -person therapy can cost you hundreds
29:15
of dollars an hour. And that adds
29:17
up. You're going to be 100 % to
29:19
250 % or more for a therapist.

with it. Okay, the Don Lemon
30:39
Show is also proudly sponsored today, brought to
30:42
you by the Freedom from Religion Foundation. And
30:44
you guys know that I am a believer, that
30:47
I am a Christian, that I
30:49
just wrote a book that released
30:51
in September about this very issue, about
30:53
people trying to turn our government
30:55
and our country into a theocracy. As
30:57
much as I'm a believer, I
30:59
do believe in the separation of church
31:01
and state. And so that's
31:03
where the Freedom From Religion Foundation
31:05
comes in. Do not try to push
31:07
your religious beliefs onto me. Those
31:10
are for you. So they fight
31:12
to keep church and state separate just
31:14
like our founding fathers intended. So
31:17
I want you to go and try to
31:19
keep the faith out of our government. Keep
31:21
the faith in your heart. FFRF

love I Nothing is a
31:51
coincidence that we have these these
31:53
two sponsors happen to be
31:56
this But this week I love
31:58
it. That's the therapy is
32:00
okay. Can you tell people that
32:02
please? First I send people
32:04
there very often because people, mental
32:06
health is health. Your
32:08
mind is a muscle. If you
32:10
have a Charlie horse or pull
32:13
hamstring, you go take your naked butt
32:15
to the physical doctor. Well, if
32:17
you have a Charlie horse in your
32:19
mind or pulled a sense of
32:21
reasoning, you need help. And
32:23
so many people are alone today. You
32:25
need an objective third party to
32:27
help you move through stuff. I love
32:29
that out. I think they're good.
32:31
The freedom for religion, I just find
32:34
them very interesting. And I
32:36
just applaud their courage in standing up.
32:38
The man in the commercial says, I'm
32:40
an atheist and proud of it. I
32:42
said, OK, good for you. Uh -huh.
32:44
There are believers, though. There are believers
32:46
who, like me, who believe in the
32:48
separation of church and state. My faith
32:51
is my faith. My God is my
32:53
God. And when I, you know, if
32:55
I'm talking about a law, that's different
32:57
than talking about a religion. You do
32:59
what is right for you and your
33:01
heart, especially when, for me, when it
33:03
comes to a woman's right to have
33:05
autonomy over a body. Who am I
33:08
to say that's a decision for her,
33:10
not for me? Yeah. Yeah. You
33:12
know, I really,
33:14
I was just watching some
33:16
of the comments in
33:18
your chat and, you know,
33:20
again, I say at
33:22
all times in all situations,
33:24
there's nobody but you
33:26
and God in the room.
33:29
So people that are putting such wicked
33:31
things there, you know, that's a reflection
33:33
of how they see themselves or how
33:35
they see God or how they see
33:37
life. I'm not talking about God in
33:40
a religious perspective. I'm talking about how
33:42
they see life. how they see love.
33:44
And those people are in pain. They
33:46
got a pain. It is. Because
33:48
as human beings, we are not
33:51
built or structured to be oppositional.
33:53
We're not built or structured to
33:55
be separated. That's why we stay
33:57
in relationships that don't honor us.
33:59
Because as human beings, we want
34:01
to be connected. We want to
34:03
be close. We want to be
34:05
loved. So, um,
34:08
when you see people saying those
34:10
things, like you said earlier, what do
34:12
they call them? Trolls and dismiss
34:14
them. I tell them, get out of
34:16
my space. But then I also
34:18
say, God, that person needs light. It's
34:21
an illness. It's a sickness. And
34:23
we have accommodated. I'm
34:25
so sorry. I have to,
34:27
and again, not you,
34:29
not me, maybe not anybody,
34:31
but we have accommodated
34:33
such ugliness, such. dysfunction
34:36
in our society.
34:39
And we're seeing what it
34:41
is now. And until we
34:43
become willing and ready to
34:45
literally take a stand for,
34:47
and dare I say, fight
34:49
for our freedom, it's gonna
34:51
keep spiraling down. I
34:53
personally find it exciting. It's
34:56
probably being cleaned out,
34:58
because all change is
35:00
preceded by, by... Yeah,
35:03
turmoil, tumult. You know, let's
35:05
go back to 1976, I
35:07
believe it was. Teddy Penegrin
35:10
said, wake up, everybody. Wake
35:12
up, everybody, no more sleeping
35:14
in bed. No more backward
35:16
thinking. No more backward thinking. Time
35:18
for thinking ahead.
35:22
They're all the same thing so much. The
35:25
world has changed so very
35:27
much. So very much. From
35:29
the way it used to
35:31
be. There was so much
35:33
hatred. war and poverty. Wake
35:36
up everybody trying to time
35:38
to live a new way. Okay.
35:40
Is that not the time
35:42
we're in? Yes. And
35:44
when we're talking about how horrible
35:46
this is and how it
35:48
used to be and that's not
35:50
thinking ahead. That's
35:53
participating in the dysfunction that
35:55
got us to where we are.
35:59
I'm awakened in one million people, but
36:01
there's people who are willing to
36:03
do the work on themselves so that
36:05
they can shine their light onto
36:07
the planet. Can we be
36:09
a part of your awakening of one million
36:11
people? I would love to be a part
36:13
that. Absolutely. You tell me,
36:15
I'm gonna send, I'm launching
36:18
tomorrow on Facebook and YouTube
36:20
at noon. because Venus is
36:22
exalted. And Venus
36:24
is the planet of love. So I'm launching
36:26
tomorrow. I'm going to talk all about
36:28
the program. You come in at
36:30
whatever level you are. Level
36:32
one means you're just starting on your
36:35
self -discovery journey. Level two means
36:37
that you're on the journey,
36:39
but you haven't been consistent. Level
36:41
three means you're on the
36:43
journey your spiritual journey your personal
36:45
development. You're on the journey.
36:47
You've been consistent It's time to
36:49
rise up level four are
36:51
people who are teaching and training
36:53
other people But now I'm
36:55
gonna teach you some spiritual technologies
36:57
that you can share One
36:59
more one more thing I wanted
37:01
before I'm just gonna play
37:03
one more okay, Senator Van Hollen
37:05
because when you you talked
37:07
about the You said the country
37:09
elected this person. So
37:11
then what is the correct response to
37:13
this person? Him first, and then
37:15
you can answer. Here it is. The
37:18
federal district court judge in
37:20
the district of Maryland, where
37:23
the case first
37:25
appeared. This is a
37:27
quote from her opinion. Defendants,
37:29
and in this case, this
37:31
is the Trump administration she's referring
37:33
to, have offered no evidence have
37:37
offered no evidence linking
37:39
Abrego Garcia to MS
37:41
-13 or any terrorist
37:44
activity, and vague allegations
37:46
of gang association alone
37:48
do not supersede the
37:50
express protections offered under
37:52
the INA unquote. She
37:55
emphasized this point, and
37:57
I'm quoting, no evidence
37:59
before the court connects
38:02
Abrego Garcia to MS -13
38:04
or any other criminal organization
38:06
Unquote. In
38:08
other words, put up in court or
38:10
shut up. So
38:16
I hate to keep bringing you know bringing
38:18
it back to Trump or whatever he's the
38:20
leader of the country and I understand you
38:22
said America elected this man so I want
38:24
people to understand How do you respond to
38:26
that? Because we are going to continue. He's
38:28
going to be in the news every single
38:30
day, obviously. And that is what
38:32
people's concerns are about. That's why they
38:35
come here. That's what they talk about. Please
38:37
make it stop. Don, what do we
38:39
do to make this stop? And
38:41
what do we do? Right?
38:45
Well, you know, I was
38:47
in a relationship for 40
38:49
years. One man
38:51
for 40 years. And
38:53
I probably knew around year seven that it
38:55
wasn't going to work. But
38:58
when he cheated for the fifth time, I
39:00
knew wasn't to work. But I stayed. I
39:02
was going to make it work. It's
39:04
going to work. I've got
39:07
to have it. I'm good. 40
39:09
years and my 72 years done. You
39:12
are not 72, by
39:14
the way, but go on.
39:16
Oh, absolutely. Tomorrow I
39:18
will be. No, I'm just
39:20
kidding. No, I am
39:22
72. 40
39:25
years, I insisted that it
39:27
was going to be the
39:29
way I thought it was
39:31
going to be. And I
39:33
put up with all manner of
39:35
conflomeration and shenanigans and everything.
39:38
And we see that happening right
39:40
now. This thing, this person
39:42
is really, well, he's purposeful. He's
39:44
tearing the system down. That's
39:46
his purpose. Okay, people, it
39:49
ain't personal. He's
39:51
tearing the system down. But it's showing
39:53
us all the vulnerabilities of the system
39:55
anyway, so When we insist, and what
39:57
we see happening is people know that
39:59
it's harsh or it's cruel, what they're
40:01
doing to Mr. Diego and the gangs,
40:03
I thought they were taking out the
40:05
criminals. This man is there raising these
40:07
kids and working. What about the man
40:09
who's been here for 30 years with
40:11
a green card, a driver's license, and
40:13
a visa, and he got put out?
40:15
What about the mother who's been here
40:17
for 22 years and they picked her
40:19
up out of her daughter's car? I
40:21
want to know how they know where
40:23
these people are. That's the number one.
40:27
Don't tell me that looking in them records. As a
40:29
matter of fact, I better shut up because like
40:31
see I got something for them. It's
40:35
not a Yala's birthday, right? You were
40:37
joking, right? Yeah, no, it's not my birthday.
40:39
Yeah, she was joking. She said a
40:41
72. I'll be 72 tomorrow. No,
40:44
today I'm 71 and a half. I'm
40:52
sorry. We we We have
40:54
to understand how we are, while
40:56
we don't like it, how
40:58
we are participating in keeping this
41:00
stuff going and keeping it
41:02
in place. And I honor
41:05
Mr. Van Hollen. But what about
41:07
the people we're not hearing about? What
41:09
about the Haitian nurse that came here
41:11
during the earthquake and working in
41:13
the hospital who got a letter in
41:15
the mail and say, self -deport by this
41:17
date? I mean, it's going on.
41:19
Are we just upset because we see
41:21
that? It's going on and it's not
41:23
about him. It's about the fact that
41:25
the court system isn't working. That's
41:28
what it's about or that we
41:30
have elected a person who defies
41:32
the laws in the court. Mr.
41:34
Van Hollen is in the Senate
41:36
and the Senate is powerless. They
41:39
have ED. They
41:45
are impotent. That's
41:47
impotent, meaning
41:49
that you have
41:52
no option. What
41:54
are we going to
41:56
do? That becomes the question.
41:59
Complaining, and what are we going to do? And
42:02
for me, rather than pick
42:04
up, before I pick up a
42:06
picket sign, or before I, you know,
42:08
go marching anywhere, I'm going
42:10
to sit, I'm going to get still,
42:12
and I'm to say, God, what is
42:14
my best approach? Hire self, source, creator,
42:16
Buddha, Allah, Orisha, whoever. Where do
42:18
I need to go pick it? I don't want
42:21
to just be picking. Where do I need to withdraw
42:23
my money? See, I was told where to withdraw
42:25
my money from. And I did
42:27
it. I did it.
42:29
And, you know, I don't want
42:31
to denounce anybody, but I'm following the
42:33
guidance because what we need to
42:35
do, Don, is not going to be
42:37
on the news. Somebody put in
42:39
the thing earlier that the revolution will
42:41
not be televised. No, it
42:43
won't be. But are
42:45
we gathering in prayer
42:47
groups? Are we collecting
42:49
money for that woman whose husband is
42:51
away? What have we sent her? How she
42:53
feeding her kids? What
42:55
have we done to support the
42:57
federal workers who were cast out?
43:00
What have we done? What
43:02
have we done to support them?
43:04
What are we doing for the children
43:06
in Mississippi where ICE went into
43:08
the schools, took the
43:10
kids, waiting for the parents
43:12
to come get them to check their
43:14
papers? We ain't talk about that. We're
43:17
not talking about that and
43:19
we are applauding Luigi Wonderful, I
43:21
can't think of his like
43:24
man. Yeah, who shot and killed
43:26
somebody in the head That's
43:28
okay because we didn't like the
43:30
man he killed but he
43:32
what my point is how we
43:34
participate in the dysfunction Either
43:36
wouldn't going to stand all the
43:39
way up for truth and
43:41
light and integrity and character and
43:43
person of all went on But
43:47
it's coming down the system is
43:49
coming down. No matter you protect yourself
43:51
Missy on like even Even with
43:53
all of this with everything I always
43:55
say you can be informed without
43:57
being inundated and you know No one
43:59
wants to have their head in
44:01
the sand right and live in a
44:03
protective bubble But can you protect
44:05
yourself from all of this? Yes, I'll
44:07
tell you a simple thing that
44:09
you can do right now because we
44:11
are so powerful as individuals we
44:13
are so powerful that all around us
44:15
there is power. You can put
44:17
yourself in a bubble. Bring your hands
44:19
to your heart because that is
44:21
your power source. I don't care who
44:23
you are. You can have as
44:25
many degrees as you want to, but
44:27
break your heart and you're on
44:29
the floor like a sniveling ball of
44:31
flesh. Here's
44:33
your power. Breathe in. Raise
44:37
your hands above your head. Turn
44:40
your palms out. Breathe
44:42
out and bring
44:44
your power down
44:47
around you. Bring
44:49
your light down
44:51
around you from
44:53
your heart Is
44:56
it my internet
44:58
or is it
45:00
miss? I think
45:02
it's hers. Oh
45:05
Man right when she was
45:07
helping us the devil is
45:09
a liar The devil is
45:12
a liar There you
45:14
are, there you are, there you are. All
45:16
right, so you were with the second part,
45:18
you said, bring your arms around you, and
45:20
then you were saying. Bring your arms around
45:22
you, and what you're doing is you are
45:24
encasing yourself in your own luminous light field. And
45:27
you go all the way down and
45:29
bring it out. And that energy where
45:31
you're encasing, you're creating an energetic boundary,
45:33
it'll stay in place for two to
45:35
three hours, or until you pee. Once
45:38
you pee, you gotta put it back in place. Is
45:44
that simple? Could you do that two
45:46
or three times a day? So
45:52
that even as the
45:54
stuff is coming, you're
45:57
in your own energetic bubble
45:59
and you to choose what
46:01
comes in, what stays in.
46:05
You do, but we
46:07
won't do that. That's against Jesus.
46:09
Yeah, oh my gosh, you're saying
46:12
and that's what people say about
46:14
therapy You don't need that, you
46:16
know, you know, especially our folks.
46:18
They're like you just go talk
46:20
to the therapist. Yes. His name
46:22
was the Holy Spirit. Yes And
46:24
he went away frequently if you
46:27
read the scriptures every few days
46:29
Jesus was going off with his
46:31
therapist Talking asking for guidance asking
46:33
for guidance, right? Right on
46:35
you see young look You
46:37
know. Okay, let me
46:39
ask you this. Do you
46:42
believe that we're connected
46:44
to the spiritual world? Do
46:46
you think that folks
46:48
who have gone on or
46:51
that somehow people or
46:53
things happen that are unexplainable
46:55
or inexplicable, as they
46:57
say? I do believe that
47:00
we are all connected. I
47:02
believe that these envelopes call bodies. That
47:04
when they when we shed our body But
47:06
I mean like in signs like someone's
47:08
sending a sign of that kind of thing
47:10
you're like wait a minute that could
47:12
only come from The somewhere else the reason
47:14
I'm asking me to be why I'm
47:16
asking Because let me tell you why I'm
47:18
asking you can answer because my mom
47:20
Said she was on her patio the other
47:22
night and my the misu was staying
47:24
with they went to Florida for a trip
47:26
to just to hang out for a
47:28
bit so she said she was alone and
47:30
she went on her patio and she
47:32
was not dreaming or anything and she said
47:34
she pressed the table like went to
47:36
sit down and hit the table and then
47:38
it showed up and said someone is
47:40
watching you and then she said she did
47:43
it again and she said someone is
47:45
watching you and she said what the hell
47:47
and she said she went back into
47:49
the house and closed all the doors and
47:51
locked it And she said the next
47:53
night she went out, didn't happen. I was like, mom, you
47:55
were dreaming. She goes, no, I was not dreaming, Don. Yeah.
47:59
I believe that if we can
48:01
put somebody on the moon, we
48:03
can get signs of signals from
48:05
higher ground. I
48:07
believe that I do. We
48:10
are living in the spiritual
48:12
universe. We are living in the
48:14
spiritual universe. i
48:16
don't question anything i know for
48:18
the past couple of weeks my
48:20
property has been inundated with crows
48:22
hers you said hers hers is
48:24
inundated with doves and birds and
48:26
she said every time she goes
48:28
by they she's like what is
48:30
going on at this house the
48:32
queen door closed by itself one
48:34
day and all kinds of stuff
48:36
sorry well y 'all like she's
48:38
in new orleans right she didn't
48:40
know her she's in bad rude
48:42
so yeah she's down there same
48:44
thing right very hot high spiritual
48:46
frequency. People call it voodoo and
48:48
bad, but it's a very high
48:50
spiritual frequency in places like NOLA
48:52
because they bury above ground. They
48:56
don't bury under the ground. They bury... So you
48:58
were saying you got crows? What is
49:00
it? Crows. And I
49:02
mean, they were like screaming there. I'm
49:04
like, what is wrong with you people?
49:07
all day and all night. They were sitting on my
49:09
fence. When I got in the car, they would
49:11
follow me down the road. I said, wait a minute,
49:14
hold up. I had to go look up what
49:16
crows meant. Power
49:18
animals as nature beings,
49:20
what do crows represent?
49:22
And they represent protection
49:24
and change. Really? Yeah.
49:27
And so I keep saying, drop me a feather,
49:29
drop me a feather, but they won't drop me a
49:31
feather. So one day I went out on the
49:33
deck and I said, what do you want? What
49:38
do you want? I said, just
49:40
tell me what it is that
49:42
you want. Tell me what it is
49:45
that you want. So the next
49:47
day I was going somewhere and I
49:49
felt this little funniness in my
49:51
car. And I said, right
49:54
over to the, I said, this thing is,
49:56
you know, because I take my car for service.
49:58
So if it sneezes or farts or belches,
50:00
they're going to tell me what's wrong with it.
50:02
So I took my car and he said,
50:04
oh my God, Ms. Vanjrant, do you know your
50:06
brake line is cut? He
50:09
said you must have rolled
50:11
over something. It's a wonder that
50:13
you didn't kill yourself And
50:15
the crows ain't been on my
50:17
property since I Told her
50:19
somebody's trying to tell her something
50:21
something is trying to tell
50:23
her something because I do Look,
50:25
I believe I'm a Pisces.
50:27
So, you know, oh, yeah And
50:29
from down south in you
50:31
know, voodoo land and all that.
50:33
I'm not saying that I
50:35
believe in any of that stuff,
50:37
but I'm just saying, but
50:39
I'm not afraid of it. So
50:41
do you think she should
50:43
go out there and say, what
50:45
do you want? I
50:47
would tell her in her prayer process,
50:49
whatever that is for her to ask, what
50:51
is it that she needs to know?
50:54
What is she missing? I would
50:56
ask everybody in this thread to get
50:58
you a piece of paper and a
51:00
pencil and write to yourself, what is
51:02
it that I need to know? about
51:05
my truth, about my gifts,
51:07
about my talents, about my
51:09
fears and how it's showing
51:11
up or not showing up
51:13
in my life today. That's
51:15
a seven minute journaling process because
51:17
until we get clear about who we
51:20
are, we're always gonna see something
51:22
wrong with what's going on outside of
51:24
us. I guarantee you, if you
51:26
dig deep enough, you'll see.
51:28
There are millions of
51:30
us done, millions
51:32
of souls who are willing
51:34
to take a stand
51:36
against fear and separation and
51:38
inhumanity. Millions of us who
51:40
want to walk in love and light and
51:42
truth and peace. Millions of us who want
51:44
the system to be more equitable. Millions
51:47
of us who want our children to be
51:49
safe in schools. Millions of us
51:51
who want people to have a fair
51:53
shot whether they're from this country or they're
51:55
millions of us. My call is let's
51:57
wake up and let's get the guidance and
51:59
support. Let's support each other. You know,
52:01
I will always support you, Don. I don't
52:03
care where you go. If you were
52:05
doing this podcast on a can on the
52:07
corner, I'd be out there. Let
52:10
me just thank you. And I
52:13
know it's true. And the same
52:15
for you. The same thing for
52:17
you. And I feel
52:19
you. I believe that we are connected. You
52:21
know who else I'm connected to? And
52:24
it varies. Sheryl Lee
52:26
Ralph. Well, yeah, that's my god
52:28
daughter's mother. She says
52:30
something very spiritual about her. And
52:32
I am connected to her. I
52:34
don't know why. And there
52:36
are other folks who I am connected
52:38
to. And I can I can communicate with
52:40
them once a year or once every
52:42
day. And they always we always
52:44
meet whoopies like that. I always meet her. We
52:46
always meet each other right where we are
52:49
and right where kind of where we left off.
52:51
And it's weird when I see her. She
52:53
sees me immediately. Yeah, and you
52:55
said to me Whether I was doing
52:57
this show on a can on
52:59
the corner Sometimes and I think that
53:02
I shouldn't have this feeling I
53:04
am surprised or I can't believe when
53:06
people say oh my god, and
53:08
I love what you do I watch
53:10
you every single day. I can't
53:12
believe what you built and I'm like
53:14
really really? Should I just
53:17
accept it? Is that something is
53:19
that me? Not
53:21
believing in myself Because I
53:24
started this from nothing. And
53:26
now we have almost 700 ,000 subscribers.
53:28
That's just on this platform. And
53:30
then we have the TikTok platform and
53:32
the other platforms that we're on
53:34
and the Spotify's of the world and
53:36
all of that. And we're getting
53:38
sponsors now. And I'm like, wow, because
53:40
people told me you couldn't do
53:43
it without a big network. Well, why
53:45
did you listen to them? I
53:47
don't know. People told me I was
53:49
ugly until I changed my mind. But
53:53
let's look at it from
53:55
another possibility. You were raised
53:57
up and really got your
53:59
value and not value in
54:01
yourself, but your value and
54:04
prominence in the world through
54:06
the system. And then
54:08
the system spit you out. Instead
54:10
of crumbling under that,
54:12
that same thing awoken
54:14
you. Awoken you.
54:16
It was always there, but it didn't
54:19
have to be active as long as
54:21
you had that cushion. This
54:23
is not happening right now. There's
54:26
many of those people who lost
54:28
their good government job. They need
54:30
to go write that book, open
54:32
that business, start that whatever, do
54:35
whatever they want. Get off the titty. Get
54:37
off the titty. You've been on the
54:39
titty. Get off. So
54:41
what happened on was your
54:43
light, your power, your strength, your
54:46
value and worth. I
54:48
won't say, wait a minute, I can do
54:51
this. I can do this. Yeah?
54:53
And you're no longer dependent
54:56
on something outside of you to
54:58
give you your value and
55:00
your worth. I haven't worked
55:02
for anybody and, you know,
55:04
I can't even... I left law
55:06
32 years ago. You
55:09
know? So that's what
55:11
we're being called to
55:13
do. And everybody
55:15
won't have a podcast or won't
55:17
have a radio. Everybody won't write
55:19
a book or whatever. But there's
55:22
so many places where we're needed
55:24
in the world. So many people
55:26
have gifts that they're sitting on.
55:28
They're waiting for somebody to give
55:30
them the okay to be okay. The
55:32
system's coming down. Wake
55:35
up, everybody. No
55:37
more sleeping in bed. You
55:40
know where I first discovered you
55:42
right and where you know where most
55:44
people first discovered well a lot
55:46
of people I should say and that
55:48
was you were I just remember
55:50
this one episode and You were you
55:52
had I think you brought in
55:55
a house Yeah, yeah in the meantime
55:57
in the meantime You know you
55:59
changed my life and you said your
56:01
show is called yonla changed my
56:03
life because let me just be honest,
56:05
okay You know I think Oprah
56:07
operates from a place of light I
56:09
think that Oprah, when she, you
56:11
were, I think Oprah's first person that
56:13
she brought on that I fell
56:15
in love with and that I related
56:17
to and who changed my life.
56:19
And so other people would come on
56:21
at Marion Williamson. That was good.
56:23
All the doctors, that was good. But
56:25
you were the one that made
56:27
me think that I can, that there
56:29
was something beyond just where I
56:31
was and that I should. expand
56:34
what I thought, expand my horizons
56:36
and there was nothing that I could
56:38
not accomplish if I had my
56:40
head and my heart and my spirit
56:42
on straight. You know what I'm
56:45
saying? Because we had that, as Eckhart
56:47
Tolle says, that emotional pain body
56:49
that's been with us for centuries, right?
56:52
Especially as people of color who
56:54
come from slavery. And so
56:56
I felt like I need
56:58
to break those shackles and
57:00
breathe. Thank
57:02
you for saying that, Donna. I
57:04
really appreciate that because I'm like
57:07
you. Sometimes I don't understand. I
57:09
don't recognize. And I'm so
57:11
afraid of falling into my ego until I
57:13
don't want to get into, you know,
57:15
how great and wonderful. Yeah.
57:19
Save yourself. Bring your future
57:21
and your past into the
57:23
present moment and make a
57:25
choice. Yeah. That's what this
57:27
means. Save yourself. Yeah. You know,
57:29
I have some iconic things out there
57:31
in the world. But I'm so happy
57:34
for you. You, Roland Martin, same thing
57:36
happened. Roland Martin had to get off
57:38
the titty and grow up. I had
57:40
to get off the titty. Get
57:42
off the titty. You
57:45
got a wick. You got a skill.
57:47
You got a talent. And stop complaining about
57:49
what's going on. And I'm to say
57:51
it again. What you're going to do? What
57:54
you're going to do? And
57:56
it doesn't have to be out loud
57:58
in the world. Go ahead and guidance
58:00
that you need. You weren't picking in
58:02
when you got this idea, let me
58:04
do this. You weren't calling somebody
58:06
else bad or wrong when you got the
58:09
idea. And you know, I used to send
58:11
you your little text, you okay over there?
58:13
You might have cried. I'm
58:15
praying for you. And I
58:17
prayed for Chris too. Because I
58:19
thought you're all beautiful together.
58:21
And I prayed for you too.
58:23
It was once in a
58:25
lifetime, I believe. Well, maybe that's
58:28
sort of chemistry. You can't
58:30
fake. You know what I mean?
58:32
Yeah. And it was for
58:34
that time and everybody out there,
58:36
everybody listening, I want to
58:38
say to you again, begin within
58:40
what is the truth about
58:42
you, about life, about what you
58:44
know that you have not
58:47
been willing to stand in or
58:49
stand for or stand out. That's
58:51
where it's going to begin because
58:53
this system, as we know it, It's
58:55
coming down. And
58:58
before you fall, when it comes down,
59:00
it's going to determine on how much
59:02
you believe in yourself, how much
59:04
you're willing to do it differently, how
59:06
much you're willing to let go
59:09
of. So get in the closet and
59:11
start. Let me just
59:13
say this one thing. My
59:15
son, I had him when
59:17
I was 16, and he
59:19
is my best friend. We just,
59:21
we rolled together. One
59:23
day he said to me,
59:25
mom, you know, what is the
59:27
most powerful animal on the
59:30
planet? I said, I
59:32
don't know what he said
59:34
the lion The lion and he
59:36
told me about the jaw
59:38
span and the teeth and the
59:40
claws and the pounds and
59:42
the way he said mom What
59:44
is it that would make
59:47
the most powerful majestic animal on
59:49
the planet? Mm -hmm
59:51
surrender to
59:53
a human being with a whip
59:55
in the chair. What
59:57
is it, Ma? I
1:00:00
know this is a deep philosophical question.
1:00:02
I said, well, son, tell me what
1:00:04
it is. He said, Ma, he
1:00:06
lost the knowledge of himself. How
1:00:10
many of us have lost the
1:00:12
knowledge of ourselves that we've been
1:00:14
so caught up in the system
1:00:16
of having and getting and competing
1:00:18
that we forgot how to be?
1:00:21
It's time to wake up to who we
1:00:23
be, Don. The same way you did. To
1:00:26
get these 7 ,000 followers
1:00:28
and your subscribers. 700 ,000. 700
1:00:30
,000. We're at 681 or
1:00:32
682. We're close. Good.
1:00:34
We're close. To wake up to
1:00:37
who you be so that you
1:00:39
can be more, do more,
1:00:41
and have more. Because the
1:00:43
system of doing more in order
1:00:45
to have more so that
1:00:47
you'll be more, done. It's done.
1:00:49
And the longer you hold
1:00:51
on, the more you're to hurt.
1:00:54
The longer you hold on to the titty. The
1:00:57
titty or the what? Whatever it is.
1:00:59
Whatever it is. The titty, the job,
1:01:01
the image, the, you know, when I
1:01:03
came on you said, we just have
1:01:05
you down as a young lady. Is
1:01:07
that enough? Yeah, that's enough. Because you
1:01:09
know what? When I had to bury
1:01:11
my first daughter, my degrees didn't help
1:01:13
me. When I had to bury my
1:01:15
second daughter, my degrees didn't help me.
1:01:17
When I had to end a 40
1:01:19
-year marriage, my degrees didn't help me.
1:01:21
In those moments, I was a Yama. And
1:01:24
what helped me was my capacity,
1:01:27
willingness, and ability to go inside. When
1:01:29
I put a pistol to my
1:01:31
head to blow my brains out, the
1:01:33
degrees and trainings, that didn't
1:01:35
help me. The law degree didn't help me. The
1:01:37
PhD didn't help me. It didn't help me.
1:01:39
When I was a grieving mother, grieving
1:01:42
over the loss of my baby, none
1:01:44
of that helped me. Yeah, I'm a
1:01:47
Yama. I'm Iyama. That's
1:01:49
all I need to say. I love
1:01:51
you, Iyama. I love you. Let me
1:01:53
just tell you something. My
1:01:55
dog is going to chew my
1:01:57
leg off because it's food time.
1:02:00
But let me just tell you how much I love
1:02:02
you. I appreciate you. I love that we are
1:02:04
connected in such a way. And
1:02:06
I just, I don't know how to, I can't
1:02:08
thank you enough for doing this. Tell
1:02:12
me something you know now that you
1:02:14
didn't know when we started. Tell me
1:02:16
one thing you know now. Um,
1:02:19
I know now why, um,
1:02:21
what is happening in my life
1:02:23
is happening because I need
1:02:25
to clean out my closet. Okay.
1:02:28
See now, my job and my family and
1:02:30
my family who's listening, they need to
1:02:33
clean out their closet too. My mom needs
1:02:35
to, my mom, you hear my dog,
1:02:37
right? And that means the dog is agreeing
1:02:39
that the spirit is coming through the
1:02:41
dog. So I will
1:02:43
say to everyone who has been asking me what
1:02:45
to do, and I'm honest. Sometimes I say, you got
1:02:47
to be willing to sacrifice something. You should get
1:02:49
on protests or whatever. And sometimes I just say, you
1:02:51
know what? I don't know. Someone asked me at
1:02:53
a town hall the other night, what do we do?
1:02:55
And I said, I got to be honest with
1:02:57
you. I don't know. And that was
1:03:00
the best answer in the moment. What
1:03:03
I was told to do was awaken
1:03:05
one million people. So now I may
1:03:07
not go protest. I'll bring you some
1:03:09
water. but I'm coming out there to
1:03:12
march, okay? I'm gonna be home getting
1:03:14
the guidance to what do I have
1:03:16
to teach? What do I have to
1:03:18
say? What do I have to do
1:03:20
to awaken one million minds so that
1:03:22
a million of us, each of whom
1:03:24
will touch 10, that's 10 million, will
1:03:26
know what to do. And if you
1:03:29
can walk away from here, everybody, knowing,
1:03:31
feeling, understanding one thing that you
1:03:33
didn't know, feel, or understand when we
1:03:35
started, then my job is done.
1:03:38
Thank you, God. Thank you, God. And
1:03:40
so, young, I'm going to leave
1:03:42
you up on the screen. I'm just
1:03:44
don't don't go anywhere. So look,
1:03:46
welcome to all the new members. Welcome
1:03:48
to the people who gifted memberships.
1:03:50
I appreciate it more than, you know,
1:03:53
all the folks who subscribe. Make sure
1:03:55
you subscribe because we're out here in
1:03:57
these digital streets without the big, you
1:03:59
know, supports of the corporations or whatever.
1:04:01
And so we appreciate your support. We
1:04:04
really do. And I am never
1:04:06
going to put anything up here that
1:04:08
I don't believe in, especially the
1:04:10
sponsors. And there is a
1:04:12
reason that this week, our first
1:04:14
sponsors were those two organizations. There
1:04:16
are no coincidences. So let
1:04:18
me just say this. You guys know what I say every
1:04:20
time when I'm about to log off of here. You know
1:04:22
what I'm going to say. But Andy, give it a beat
1:04:24
before you knock me off the air. OK? So
1:04:26
this is what I will say. Turn
1:04:29
the TV off and go clean out
1:04:31
your closet. Oh, and join me tomorrow on
1:04:33
YouTube at noon for Awakening One Million.
1:04:35
I love you, Don Lemon. That's it. I
1:04:37
love you a Yanla because that's all

you need is a Yanla. That's all I
1:04:41
need to call you. I love you
1:04:43
as well. And I love everyone who's out
1:04:45
there. So thank you. Even the haters. Yeah,
