(laughter) After the harvest theres noplace to hide the fields are empty there is no cover there! (laughter)I am here to plant a seed that will inspire you to move forward in life with e

3、nthusiastic heartsand a clear sense of wholeness. The question is, will that seed have a chance to take root, or willI be sued by Monsanto and forced to use their seed, which may not be totally “Ayurvedic.” (laughter)Excuse me if I seem a little low energy tonight today whatever this is.

5、e doesnt happen to you, it happens for you. How do I know this I dont, but Im makingsound, and thats the important thing. Thats what Im here to do. Sometimes, I think thatsone of the only things that are important. Just letting each other know were here, remindingeach other that we are part of a lar

6、ger self. I used to think Jim Carrey is all that I was.Just a flickering lightA dancing shadowThe great nothing masquerading as something you can nameDwelling in forts and castles made of witches wishes! Sorry, a Freudian slip thereSeeking shelter in caves and foxholes, dug out hastilyAn archer sear

7、ching for his target in the mirrorWounded only by my own arrowsBegging to be enslavedPleading for my chainsBlinded by longing and tripping over paradise can I get an “Amen”! (applause)You didnt think I could be serious did ya I dont think you understand who youre dealingwith! I have no limits! I can

8、not be contained because Im the container. You cant containthe container, man! You cant contain the container! (laughter)I used to believe that who I was ended at the edge of my skin, that I had been given this littlevehicle called a body from which to experience creation, and though I couldnt have

9、asked for asportier model, (laughter) it was after all a loaner and would have to be returned. Then, Ilearned that everything outside the vehicle was a part of me, too, and now I drive aconvertible. Top down wind in my hair! (laughter)I am elated and truly, truly, truly excited to be present and ful

10、ly connected to you at thisimportant moment in your journey. I hope youre ready to open the roof and take it all in! (audience doesnt react) Okay, four more years then! (laughter)I want to thank the Trustees, Administrators and Faculty of MUM for creating an institutionworthy of Maharishis ideals of

11、 education. A place that teaches the knowledge and experiencenecessary to be productive in life, as well as enabling the students, through TranscendentalMeditation and ancient Vedic knowledge to slack off twice a day for an hour and a half! (laughter) dont think youre fooling me (applause) but, I gu

12、ess it has some does allow you to separate who you truly are and whats real, from the stories that runthrough your head.You have given them the ability to walk behind the minds elaborate set decoration, and tosee that there is a huge difference between a dog that is going to eat you in your mind and

13、 anactual dog thats going to eat you. (laughter) That may sound like no big deal, but many neverlearn that distinction and spend a great deal of their lives living in fight or flight response.Id like to acknowledge all you wonderful parents way to go for the fantastic job youvedone for your tireless

14、 dedication, your love, your support, and most of all, for the attentionyouve paid to your children. I have a saying, “Beware the unloved,” because they willeventually hurt themselves. or me! (laughter)But when I look at this group here today, I feel really safe! I do! Im just going to say it myroom

15、 is not locked! My room is not locked! (laughter) No doubt some of you will turn out to becrooks! But whitecollar stuff Wall St. ya know, that type of thing crimes committed bypeople with selfesteem! Stuff a parent can still be proud of in a weird way. (laughter)And to the graduating class of 2019 m

16、inus 3! You didnt let me finish! (laughter) Congratulations! (applause) Yes, give yourselves a round of applause, please. You are thevanguard of knowledge and consciousness; a new wave in a vast ocean of possibilities. On theother side of that door, there is a world starving for new leadership, new

17、ideas.Ive been out there for 30 years! Shes a wild cat! (laughter) Oh, shell rub up against your legand purr until you pick her up and start pettin her, and out of nowhere shell swat you in theface. Sure its rough sometimes but thats OK, cause theyve got soft serve ice cream withsprinkles! (laughter

18、) I guess thats what Im really here to say; sometimes its okay to eat yourfeelings! (laughter)Fear is going to be a player in your life, but you get to decide how much. You can spend yourwhole life imagining ghosts, worrying about your pathway to the future, but all there will everbe is whats happen

19、ing here, and the decisions we make in this moment, which are based ineither love or fear.So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality. What we really want seemsimpossibly out of reach and ridiculous to expect, so we never dare to ask the universe for m saying, Im the proof th

20、at you can ask the universe for it please! (applause) And if itdoesnt happen for you right away, its only because the universe is so busy fulfilling my s party size! (laughter)My father could have been a great comedian, but he didnt believe that was possible for him,and so he made a conservative cho

21、ice. Instead, he got a safe job as an accountant, and whenI was 12 years old, he was let go from that safe job and our family had to do whatever we couldto survive.I learned many great lessons from my father, not the least of which was that you can fail atwhat you dont want, so you might as well tak

22、e a chance on doing what you love. (applause)Thats not the only thing he taught me though: I watched the affect my fathers love andhumor had on the world around me, and I thought, “Thats something to do, thats somethingworth my time.”It wasnt long before I started acting up. People would come over t

23、o my house and they wouldbe greeted by a 7 year old throwing himself down a large flight of stairs. (laughter) They wouldsay, “What happened” And I would say, “I dont know lets check the replay.” And I wouldgo back to the top of the stairs and come back down in slow motion. (Jim reenacts coming down

24、the stairs in slowmo) It was a very strange household. (laughter)My father used to brag that I wasnt a ham I was the whole pig. And he treated my talent asif it was his second chance. When I was about 28, after a decade as a professional comedian,I realized one night in LA that the purpose of my lif

25、e had always been to free people fromconcern, like my dad. When I realized this, I dubbed my new devotion, “The Church ofFreedom From Concern” “The Church of FFC” and I dedicated myself to that ministry.Whats yours How will you serve the world What do they need that your talent can provideThats all

26、you have to figure out. As someone who has done what you are about to go do, I cantell you from experience, the effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is. (applause)Everything you gain in life will rot and fall apart, and all that will be left of you is what was inyour heart.

27、My choosing to free people from concern got me to the top of a mountain. Lookwhere I am look what I get to do! Everywhere I go and Im going to get emotionalbecause when I tap into this, it really is extraordinary to me I did something that makespeople present their best selves to me wherever I go. (

28、applause) I am at the top of themountain and the only one I hadnt freed was myself and thats when my search for identitydeepened.I wondered who Id be without my fame. Who would I be if I said things that people didnt wantto hear, or if I defied their expectations of me What if I showed up to the par

29、ty without myMardi Gras mask and I refused to flash my breasts for a handful of beads (laughter) Ill giveyou a moment to wipe that image out of your mind. (laughter)But you guys are way ahead of the game. You already know who you are and that peace, thatpeace that were after, lies somewhere beyond p

30、ersonality, beyond the perception of others,beyond invention and disguise, even beyond effort itself. You can join the game, fight thewars, play with form all you want, but to find real peace, you have to let the armor fall. Yourneed for acceptance can make you invisible in this world. Dont let anyt

31、hing stand in the wayof the light that shines through this form. Risk being seen in all of your glory. (A sheet dropsand reveals Jims painting. Applause.)(Re: the painting) Its not big enough! (kidding) This painting is big for a reason. This paintingis called “High Visibility.” (laughter) Its about

32、 picking up the light and daring to be seen. Heresthe tricky part. Everyone is attracted to the light. The party host up in the corner (refers topainting) who thinks unconsciousness is bliss and is always offering a drink from the bottlesthat empty you; Misery, below her, who despises the light cant stand when youre doing well and wishes you nothing but the worst; The Queen of Diamonds who needs a King to build
