"It was an honor to showcase these extraordinary abilities in front of over 700 people at CONFLUENCE this year.

With guidance and training from @dredithubuntu, seven children demonstrated blindfolded vision live on stage—eyes fully covered, navigating the world through expanded perception—in front of a packed, awe-struck audience.

• Naming colors with 100% accuracy.
• Sorting colored cups with 100% accuracy.
• audience drawing random pictures and the children name exactly what it is with 100% accuracy.
• solving Rubik’s cubes in less than a minute.
• reading as if the blindfold isn’t there
• nonchalantly playing a game of chess

For me, the most incredible takeaways were, first, that any child can learn this—these abilities are available for all children.

And second, the grown men and women who were openly weeping as they watched it unfold—experiencing grief for what could have been, had their own spark not been dimmed by layers of conditioning, programming, and trauma in childhood… and also a deep, beautiful remembering that the spark is still there. It never left.

And now, by witnessing these beautiful, luminous children, we’re remembering our own sparks—and we get to be the generation that ensures our children’s sparks shine brighter than ever.

We are remembering."
