Freedom in Prison (Peter Ralston)

[Genius100x]

Transcript : 

you know one of the uh I imagine that 
one of 
the selling points 
prison that's kind of overlooked is that 
you don't get to do 
stuff see you know what I'm saying say I 
mean you're fed you got a nice bed there 
I know nice but anyway you got a bed 
there you got your own little toilet you 
know you got bars and a room you don't 
have to pay any rent okay see you know 
you don't have to do any cooking 
like that see but what happens you want 
to do these things see so you sign up to 
work in the library you know you sign up 
to you know work in the kitchen or 
whatever so you can make a nice sh kill 
but anyway but you know you want to do 
things you know you say because you want 
to do things I mean just I'm just 
pointing that out see so that the pain 
of not being able to do anything 
is more than having to do stuff I'm just 
saying you know and then you got people 
like a CeCe you know who was in prison 
and he's not upset at all St Francis of 
a 
CE and he's not you know he does not 
sound 
unhappy he's free in prison that might 
be a useful thing you I figured that hey 
if I ever get put in prison wow a lot of 
time to 
contemplate nothing else to do you know 
and the the Japanese have found that 
with their prisoners they in introduce 
Zen and they do a a lot of Zen and they 
have a lot of success a lot of success 
with you know Zen in prison and then 
when they get out they don't continue 
being 
criminals I don't think our system works 
very well well 
here thanks for watching if you like

workshop they're more powerful than you 
think
