Description:
We have enjoyed over 1 million views on YouTube across our channels so being cast could be good exposure for you. The job is to convey the words of a spiritual teacher who wishes to remain anonymous. To audition, you will read the below script (read "A"). If you can't memorize the lines as there will be many, you can wear an earpiece as if you are repeating the words in real time. Either is fine. If your video does well, we may put on YouTube advertising. If so, you will get 50% of revenue from the video. If the first does well, we will make more and then you can see that a bunch of videos, all getting 10,000+ views, will provide you significant income.
Script. You read "A".
Q: What is vital?
A: Notice when your thoughts are gripped. The mind has convinced itself (and apparently you as well) that a plan to create, maintain, or destroy something is necessary to secure a positive self-image and happiness.
Q: Isn’t that how we avoid things going wrong?
A: If you need reasons to accept yourself or your situation, you enter the gap with an argument or debate. Thus the “new you” inherits some attachment and JRSC.
(note to actor: “The gap” is explained in the author’s book. You can get more information here:
Q: What about issues I have with my boss, teacher, landlord, friend, or spouse?
A: Using Transcendental Meditation (TM), or other approaches, we can lead the mind to be attracted to more subtle levels of experience. We begin to place just a little bit less emphasis on the gross/concrete realm.
Q: But if we want success in school, business, or relationships, don’t we want find the mind wanting to focus on concrete matters?
A: The mind wants something to happen or not happen due to the “Gears of Suffering”.
(note to actor: “The gap” is explained in the author’s book. You can email jordan@FormOfBeing.com if you want an explanation).
A: If you are unfamiliar with the “Gears of Suffering”, to summarize: if we are focusing on confirming or reversing negative stories from our past, we are driven to a plan to create, maintain, or destroy something is necessary to secure a positive self-image and happiness. Thus our attention is on the concrete level of reality and we are less likely to explore the subtle, causal, or non-dual. Further, as the thing we are aiming to get, keep, or discard is really about something from childhood, the "fix" will be temporary at best.
