Inner Empire: Why Unfinished Tasks Are Quietly Draining Your Income

**Meir Ezra** (0:00)
What is your mind? Your mind is just a series of pictures that you take. Every second you take 25 pictures, and every picture have 57 perceptions. You will understand immediately the definition of the word insanity. Most people say that insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different result. Unfortunately, it's not true. This is actually the definition of tenacity. Not only that is not true, it's gone. The past is not past if you don't let it pass. The spirit is a nothingness that can bring about a somethingness for no reason at all. So if you say I'm spiritual, but I do energy work, you are not spiritual.
You're an engineer hiding as a monk.

And I'm excited because we have Meir back.
And today I want to get right into it. I think it's the most important part of the series, which is what we're calling as the Inner Empire. And Meir, before we actually get into anything like structured yet, I want to start off and I want to ask this question because I was thinking about this before we got together here today. And I think most people think mindset is about either motivation or confidence. But when the pressure of life, of what a family, of work actually hits, like that real pressure, I feel like something else takes over. So I'm curious, when pressure enters in someone's life, what does it reveal about them rather than what it actually would create for them?

**Meir Ezra** (1:44)
So at any given moment, you can be cause or effect. So cause is you decide for something to happen, and it happened exactly as you want. So you are the author of the result. And effect is when something happened to you.
When your mind affects you, you're in effect. Your mind never helps you.
Everyone think about, oh, I need the mindset. No, no, no, no, you need yourself. Your mind is your enemy. And I know it's different, but I will explain it, and you'll see that it's actually makes sense. So let's start. What is your mind? Your mind is just a series of pictures that you take, and every second you take 25 pictures, and every picture have 57 perceptions.

**Kayvon Kay** (2:44)
I just want to hear this again. Your mind is like taking a picture.
And when we say your mind, can we go deeper maybe in say a thought? Is you're saying, or just your mind?

**Meir Ezra** (2:58)
There is not two words that are the same. And the problem is that people mix, when a person do not know something, he use synonyms.

**Kayvon Kay** (3:10)
Yes.

**Meir Ezra** (3:11)
So if you don't know anything about computers, so you say, well, you know, the box, the thing, the processor, the screen, you don't know what you're talking about. When someone use synonyms to describe one thing, he actually broadcast that he doesn't know. And it's good for you to know, for me, for any person, that when I find myself using synonyms, I don't know, I actually don't know.
It's really amazing to realize, when you see someone that use synonyms, the person do not know because otherwise, he will be sharp as this is the word, the exact word. A surgeon don't call a valve in the heart, just valve, but he will have the exact name of the valve in that connection. He will have to have every piece in a specific name. And if he thinks that it's more or less the valve, the heart, the thing that moved something, don't use this surgeon.

**Kayvon Kay** (4:15)
Yeah. Okay. So I want to, and I know we got to get clear. I have actually learned that from you from our last episodes. Let's get clear on definitions. Because if we both think different of each definition, like the definitions, then we're already on the wrong page, right? So when you say mind, let's define the mind, because you said the mind makes up, was it 55? Did I write that? 55?

**Meir Ezra** (4:43)
Mind, the mind is a series of pictures.

**Kayvon Kay** (4:46)
It's a series of pictures.

**Meir Ezra** (4:48)
Every second, when you are awake or when you are asleep, you take pictures. Every second, you take 25 pictures and every picture contain 57 perception. Of course, the normal perception, sight, smell, et cetera.
But you have, for example, the perception of direction, the perception of emotion, the perception of pressure. There are 57 different perceptions. It's quite amazing. And this mind is very interesting because what it does, it says, when you, the spirit, don't know, I'm going to ask the mind to tell you what to do.
