[Speaker 2]
If helping the sick makes medicine work for me, do I still have to take the medicine? Yes or no?

[Speaker 1]
Who said it depends? Yeah, Luka, you're so smart. Okay.

What's the answer, Luka? Good. Yeah, good.

There's three possibilities, okay? Number one, your seeds are so good, you never get a headache anyway. Headache stops before it starts.

Okay, headache stops before it starts. That's first class on the airplane seeds, okay? What's business class seeds?

Yeah, you have enough seeds for the aspirin to work, okay? You have enough—you get a headache, then you take the aspirin and it works because there's seeds in the aspirin. What's economy class seeds?

You don't have enough seeds for it to work, okay? Most of us are in business class or economy class, just like real life. Okay, economy plus.

Most of us, you know, maybe the aspirin's going to work, maybe the aspirin's not going to work, okay? But if your karma's really good, there's economy plus—business plus, halfway to first class, right? You don't even have to take the pill anymore.

It just goes away after two seconds or so, okay? So really there's four classes. Let's say it again.

I didn't quite say it very clearly. First class, yeah, the headache stopped before it started. Business first class, uh...

You don't need the—you don't need the medicine. You don't need the medicine. You don't have—you get a headache, but it just goes away like in two minutes or something, by itself.

Okay, those are people who walk on water. These are people who walk on water, okay? Third one, business class, you take the—you have to take the pill.

You have to buy aspirin, okay? You're still better than economy class, because economy class people, they don't know if the aspirin's going to work or not, okay? Got it?

They don't know about seeds, all right? Okay. So, by the way, as a teacher, DCI teacher, ACI teacher, you're going to get this question a lot.

It's not uncommon question. People say, if everything's coming from my seeds, Geshe-la, why I still have to take aspirin? Why—should I go to the—I have a lump on my breast, should I go to the doctor or not?

And my Lama always used to say, go and do what they say. And I'd say to my Lama, but if they made seeds, it would just stop. He said, most people can't make that powerful seeds.

You know, they're still going to have to go to the doctor, okay? If they plant good seeds, the doctor will cure them. Okay, so most of us are at this level.

Still have to go to the doctor. Plant the best seeds you can, okay? If we were super meditators, yeah, we could stop the seeds and the tumor would go away, okay?

But most of us are not there. So, as a teacher, it's probably responsible to tell people, go to your doctor, go to—pick a good doctor, do what they say, but plant seeds heavily, okay?

[Speaker 2]
All right? Chen Zong just had an operation, hip operation. It was very successful.

The— all those fire offerings. Created a good doctor and a good procedure, and it's four weeks and she's running around doing fire offerings, okay? That's okay.

Okay.
