I thought this was awesome:
The Fall of the Bully:
The bully didn't want any of the kids in 'his' schoolyard to play with the other kids -- the ones who lived all throughout the neighborhood.
He guarded the gates. He liked being the Big Fish in a Small Pond. He told elaborate stories of how evil, treacherous and deceptive the other kids were.
He wanted everyone to respect him and pay him for protection, while fearing anyone and everyone else around them -- including him most of all.
If the kids found out they had all these other friends in the neighborhood who could have helped them, they might have quickly forgotten about the bully... and laughed at his once-fearsome authority.
Over the years, the bully grew weak and tired. He couldn't beat people up anymore, so he started paying his friends to do it.
Now he has run out of money to pay all his friends. They, too, became tired of all his lies and backstabbing games -- so as soon as his money ran out, they ditched him.
It took a while for all the kids on the schoolyard to realize the bully could not hurt them anymore. His power was so feared, so legendary, that the stories of his beatings continued to awe and inspire them for some time.
But there were cracks in the armor. A series of signs -- irrefutable and undeniable -- started happening that gradually made the kids realize the bully's power to hurt them had evaporated.
Now all the people he shamed, humiliated and attacked over the years are finally standing up -- and they're going to tell us the truth.
They're going to tell their story... of what it was like to live in fear of this bully for so many years, and never be able to share the secret truth of the horrors he was putting them through.
Once the bully is gone, the children can run and sing and dance and play happily -- quickly recovering from the nightmare of abuse they endured for so long. They won't have to hand over all their lunch money to him and his friends any more.
And they will soon find out they have a lot more friends than they ever could have imagined -- regardless of whatever horror stories the bully tried to tell them about how mean and evil all the other kids were.
As for the information David presents, and not so much about how he presents it, I happen to resonate very strongly with where David is coming from and agree with much of what he says. As with any and all information, one must use discernment and pick and choose what works for them at that moment where they are at in their journey back to the one; because we are all at different places so sometimes it is hard to understand one another and why someone may feel so strongly about a specific piece of information at a certain time.
If we can operate from a place of objective neutrality we can more easily see things for what they really are and not how we judge it.
I believe through meditation we start to truly experience what ego is and how to live in the moment.
