This Video Will Leave You Speechless - George Harrison On God and Love

[Music] I try to do my music about what my experiences are sometimes I just feel I'm actually on the wrong planet you know and I feel great when I'm in my garden but the moment I go out the gate I think what the hell am I doing here I believe as most Buddhists and Hindus believe that it's us coming back you know look our kid it's something you did God knows when but you're doing it again you know really the past the present and the future is just one big cycle and this cycle the infinite Continuum of time and space itself encapsulating all we are from conception to dust from infancy to seniority is what creates the essence of our being however While most people would associate our being with our physical bodies this is not the case for legendary George Harrison George explains that we are actually metaphysical Spirits incased in bodies it's all down to the individual you know what you can manifest with within yourself as to the value of anything really the whole of life should be a spiritual experience because we are spirits who are just encased in bodies people forget and think they're just this body but we're actually Spirits in bodies one may even look at our Spirits as our truest freest self trapped within a physical form and when our spirit is freed from our body George states that we eventually make our way into another being the same core in a different physicality this is commonly referred to as reincarnation here he explains how reincarnation is a direct result of karma what we are now is really the effect of whatever we've been in the in the past and you know I do through this Hinduism believe in reincarnation and all that so what I believe basically simply is we all live from birth to death we all create a lot of action which is Action Reaction they call Karma and it's like that it's like um credit and debit you know it's just like an account that at death you death is actually your physical body packs in that we keep going and at some period later we take another body and we try again you know because all those scriptures tell us anyway that the never a time when we weren't and there won't never be a time when we're not you know it does get heavy philosophical but that's what the Lord teaches in all every scripture you know that the physical body is the thing which goes through the changes and which is impermanent you know everyone that's alive is in some way born into a position or a situation or a country or a time which is the direct result of the previous actions the reactions that whole thing of Action Reaction life and death are the same you know somebody said what's the cause of death is birth you know everybody's worrying about dying but in order not to die you just don't have to get born because the moment you're born you're automatically going to die because birth and death go hand in hand so does Action Reaction Karma and rebirth so um I just believe this is getting pretty far out to say how come the Beatles did that I don't know all I can put it down to is that whatever it was the chemistry of four people being born in that period based upon whatever we'd been in our past in that place that time with everybody else it's relative I believe you know it's like you meet people in your life I think a lot of your friends are people who were your friends in other lives and I think people who if you hate somebody I'm sure you're going to keep coming through Life After Life hating it'll be the same people it's only the same as you know how chaikovsky can play the piano and how this kid is smart at doing that you know it's all down to Karma many of these beliefs stem from George's knowledge of Hinduism he takes the Hindu point of view that there's a truth that underlies all religions in fact George's views on religion can be accurately summed up in this statement one of our perennial problems whether or not there is actually a god from the Hindu point of view each soul is divine all religions are branches of one big tree it doesn't matter what you call him just as long as you call do you consider yourself a Hindu do do you label yourself as a you know on a simple level of talking about religions and Buddhists and this and that and the other one of the things that Hinduism teaches is that there's a truth which underlies all religions so um yeah I'm I'm a Hindu actually a heart I'm a Hindu but all that means is that I can relate more to like the teachings in the ga than I can in the Bible but that's no put down on the Bible it's just the from a Christian point of view they always taught us how it was painful and you know how you have you know the crucifixion and the whole thing whereas from the Hindu point of view it's all playful Krishna as um the name of the lord it's playful it's to enjoy it's to try and enjoy the moments but that is not to say that you have disregard for you know the past or the future but to actually be conscious of being being the nap to be pleased to be playing the part that you're playing cuz that's all we're doing I'm playing the part of EX Beetle George you're playing the part of you know Dave interviewing me and they're all playing you know what I mean but to enjoy it as opposed to see it as a you know dead end this ideology of life being synomous with play is a way we can detach from our ego the spirited nature of play detracts from the grave and self-conscious ego this shift in being ultimately brings us closer to Bliss Consciousness and that thing we call Krishna or God you think about I I am this I do that I do this me me me mine mine mine you know that's why I've just tried to get beyond the eye or the me or the M which is really selfish and ego and is not our real self our real self is really just pure Spirit full of knowledge and everything but we just have hidden it from ourselves by our association with material energy right perhaps if we weren't so caught up with this Association of material energy we wouldn't have the same divisions within Society for example if we didn't care not for what we have but instead for who we are there would be no gap between the rich and poor George suggests that those who have power or wealth should do their part to address these inequalities there enough on this planet for everybody there's not just enough there's abundance it's just that it happens to all be held up by greedy people and they have like book Minster fer who could tell them where to ship the stuff one place you got too much of something some other place they haven't got anything you know it's a matter of coordination between world powers in order to make it because I mean I'm certainly doing my best to try and give a little bit here and there wherever I can so I mean the point is if everybody did give a little there wouldn't be no starvation and no poverty or sickness I tell you one thing there sickness going on and there's some good people doing work in hospitals but they got no bread to do it on not only are they working in a miserable condition with sick people but there they're scraping the barrel for funds to keep going by looking at his spiritual viewpoints and ethical considerations I think it's safe to say we can summarize much of George's teachings with the common denominator of a deep understanding of love that's it really it's all love whichever way you look at it it's all love how much you can get from each other and that's determined by how much you giving to each other but it all starts within our self and then it spreads to those around us good and bad but basically that's it I think it's the love that we can generate is equal to the the the love that we get back amen
