It's really hard: They won't want to fight you if they love you. It's a fact. But it's just a matter of energy.

Men think that the only ones to love are women, but I found in battle with men I had to face up to the ultimate with, it was love that they had for each other. Whether they would step in and take... well... one guy took at grenade in his chest to save my life - because he decided to be responsible for my life.

And then I thought to myself well, if that man would do that for another man, I'm not going to waste the rest of my life. I've got my life for a purpose. I'm going to find out what that purpose is. I didn’t know what it was, but I was going to find out what that purpose was.

And from that day on for my whole life, I've tried to find out why my life was saved. Why did that guy do that? Why that sort of nobility, where his ideals were more important than his life? That's something really special isn't it?

Because you can tell a man's weakness when you can find out what he doesn't want to experience. That's you're Achilles heel in life, and a woman's too of course - when I say 'man' I mean women too. They're all spirits, men and women. I think of them as spirits, not lumps of meat.

Your Achilles heel is what not you're willing to experience.

It’s all about starting to look at life like it is. Starting to not just survive as a body. Not just survive as a man or a woman.

(Ken then addresses a lady in the audience) To me you're a spirit with a body, a female body, so you're playing a female game in your life. But you're a spirit, the same as this guy is. The same as I am. You happen to have a female body and you’re playing a female game in your life. But you’re a spirit.

All religions teach you one thing; that you're a spirit and you’re responsible to a spirit. This is a fact of life whether you like to have it or not. You can resist it for as long as you like, but some time in your life when you’re ready to pull the shades down, you’ll realise that’s a fact.

You are a spirit. And you are responsible to a spirit for your behaviour and for your thoughts and for your emotions and the game you play in life. And if you do that you’re strong, because you can never be undone by a man. You can never be undone by fear.

I'm a bit revolutionary in the way I say things, compared to what we’re supposed to think. And I get people that get upset with it and they want to stop me. Because they're in the business of controlling things. Of stopping people.
