Unabashedly Resolute Institute

Today my twins joined me on the drive in! I let them choose the discussion topics. They chose hearing God’s voice and meditation, as well as their take on CRT (Critical Race Theory.) I am so blessed to have such deep thinking kids who are constantly challenging their beliefs (as well as my own...believe me they challenge!) These are their own thoughts not simply regurgitation of mine.

This is an extemporaneous musing about the Declaration of Independence and formation of America. We discuss the meaning of politics and the application of it, how it is best implemented to create the most good for everyone. Warning: I do not shy away from my convictions or my strong love for America...you may be triggered if you adhere to the 1619 project or similar ideas.

Today more than any other time I can remember we are being told that all Philosophies are equal; Truth and Falsity can share the same space and that the consequences of each will be equitable!! Western thought did not create flourishing because they had power, they gained influence because they mastered bits of reality before other societies did! Competence is often mistaken for usurpation, a believe that may just be the West’s undoing.

Wes discusses his theory on why certain literature is considered “classic.” He promotes two ideas: 1. They are the favorite books of the historical “winners”. 2. They are the best that the best of us could write.

What do you think?

What are you? What is Self? Are you just atomic and neural activity with no purpose? Join Wes and his Daily Musings as he breaks down what he thinks are several good reasons you are a soul and a body, not just physical matter.

Listen to find out why you should take our ReThinking Thinking Course!!

Wes talks about the foundations of UR Institute and how he has used these throughout his life. These have been tested and tried for the last 30 years, even through loss, anger, and fear. He also talks about not being afraid to be wrong and challenges anyone who can find better principles to host a class for UR Institute and try tearing everything apart. This is not out of arrogance but out of genuine desire to find truth. Why would you believe something you can’t defend or others can take apart in an evening?

What do you think you believe...can you defend it?

I take on the notion all that Math and Logic are racist or unnecessary. Without precise calculations and language we will appropriate things outside the bounds of their reality and it will be to our detriment and destruction. “My Truth” can not be The Truth! There is a reality all around you that exists whether you choose to see it or not...those that have and use the correct tools will enjoy the rewards of it. Those who refuse to use will misuse and squander the beauty and mystery that is life.

Give it a listen, give your feedback, but I dare you to really think about what I’m saying. If I’m wrong this was a waste of a few minutes...if I’m right it may just change the entire course of your life!! That sounds like something worth listening to, if you ask me.

It’s another chat as I drive into town. Do you know what foundation your truth making process is built on? Do you believe a person or a set of people based on their authority? Where did they get that authority? What do you do if they are found to be dishonest and biased?

URI is poised to help you find out for yourself who you are and why you believe what you believe....and if need be to change both to make you more resolved in those things.

This is a daily musing from my car as I head to work. I am pulling on the idea that if language is a social construct and seems to be used to promote and sustain social norms...then the idea that language is a social construct is itself a social construct used to promote and sustain its own power and authority. Meaning that the statement itself is not or cannot be truth but rather the act of social manipulation through positions of authority. It is the thing it seeks to undermine.

Did I miss something? Did I create a straw man? Give a listen and let me know your thoughts.
