Because you think it is possible, and because you think you are completely right, that is not so, that is not always so. That you expect, that you think it is possible is already wrong, so you know, you shouldn't think you are completely right, but still you should try to be right. I think this is very important point for us right now especially. So people may divided in two and fighting with each other in the same country.

[01:03]

One may say, we should not fight, we should stop war, you are wrong, completely wrong. And the other may say, you don't know what is going on in this world, we should fight. If you don't fight, we will be lost. And he thinks he is completely right, so there is big gap between two parties, and they have to fight again with each other, same thing will be repeated.

Something which should be done, should be worked for, anyway. Or else you don't feel so good, first of all. If you say, you know, this is complete practice, this is perfect, then you will not have so much friends.

[06:01]
