    Facts! 🗝️ take away: It's You and GOD 💯🎯🙏🏽🌹🌅.
    It was warm to hear y'all's differing perspectives. I personally Love Laughing so Hard, it Hurts. ✊🏽. I agree; if we didn't know pain and suffering, We wouldn't appreciate His love and joy the way we are able to. Duality and causality in Oneness. ❤️‍🔥🪽👣. One foot in front...

    the interviewer never was quite on that wavelength (no hate on interviewer, just shows mavi’s intellect. interview was still an immaculate medium for interview purposes). unceremonious praise to mavi for being able to articulate his thoughts as clear as he did here (I know a mf on mushrooms when i see it)
