Дебаты дьявола с ангелом, часть 18 (2024, Мексика), занятие 2

[Speaker 1]
Okay, we're going to go back to a little, we're going to go back to the idea of where do, where does the voice in your head come from? And if you don't remember anything, like if your friend says, what did you learn last weekend? You have to get ready, you can't say, oh I don't remember.

That guy said that the voice in your head is not you. And you actually have no choice what the voice in your head is talking about. If you ever got depression, if you ever broke up with a boy or a girl, you know, you cannot tell your mind to stop talking about something.

So, get comfortable with this idea. You do not control the person talking in your mind, and it's not you. Okay, because those words were spoken before you heard them.

By the time you hear the words, the speaker is gone into the past forever. So, where do those voices come from? They come from seeds in your mind.

And as we, as our friend said, those seeds are planted by you. And no one else can tell you what to think in your mind, it's impossible. You can't tell you what to think in your mind, much less other people.

If you have good seeds in your mind, that talker will be amazing. They will give you new ideas, and you will be happy for the rest of your life. And if you don't learn how to control the process, then it will be like before you came to this program.

Almost everyone in the world is planting seeds by accident. They don't even know they're planting seeds. And then those seeds open, and they have the thoughts in their mind.

And they have no control about it, for their whole life, since you are a kid up to now. It's not you talking, and you don't have a choice now what the voice now is going to say. You have choice next week.

You can plant special seeds, and then next week's voice will be amazing. It's so nice to live in a head where the talker is really cool. And every week better than last week.

Once you know how to plant the seed, it's like never-ending fun, and it gets bigger and bigger and bigger. So, that quarter billion dollar company in Manhattan, I got rid of it twenty-six years, twenty-five years ago. That was just the beginning of the fun.

Then much more fun since then, because I know how to plant the seeds for the talker in my mind. And then he's always telling me, wouldn't it be cool if we went to Mexico City again next year? Okay, so, what you learned this weekend, how to plant those seeds, I'm going to repeat the steps, okay?

And then if we have extra time, I will give you some headaches from the poem, and if we still have time, we'll do some question and answer, okay? So, if you have any question, get them ready. Okay, we're going to go through all the pictures, because pictures are easy ways to remember things.

And I know that Pachi and Pau and the big boss, who's the big boss? Shanti. Shanti.

Okay, their boy. You know, I'm sure they'll have some follow-up programs to explain all the pictures over and over. So, here's the first time, and then I'll give you the ...

you use the same pictures, okay? Okay, here we go. Next picture.

$100. $100. Do we have ...

wait, do we have enough money? Do we? Seriously.

We can still, we can still have dinner. Okay, $100. Okay, $100.

What's going on in this picture? All those chasing, all those chasing. Oh, by the way, $50, what's going on in this picture?

$50, what's not going on in this picture? So, woman, in this picture, planted the seed and it's growing in the, like, from her to the trees, or like garden. What does the tree represent?

So, it's her seeds that she planted, like, some time ago, in her mind. Okay. It's a tree for her voice, right?

Then, what was my other question? That's not happening in the picture. What's not happening in the picture?

She's not eating it. Okay.

[Speaker 2]
It's coming out.

[Speaker 1]
It's going from her.

[Speaker 2]
Yeah.

[Speaker 1]
I gave you a strange picture, because people remember strange pictures, and they don't remember normal pictures. So, when you think about this weekend, just remember this picture. I want to plant a voice that comes into my mind, and tells me cool things to do, like how I started the diamond business.

We started with $7, but the person in my mind is very, very ... in the diamond business we have special word. Nudnik.

Nudnik. Nudnik means ... So, I have this voice in my mind, do the diamond business, do the diamond business, do the diamond business.

my mind, make the diamond business, make the diamond business. And then, amazing, you know, largest jewelry company in the world. And so, if you develop the voice, then it's so fun.

There's also Nun-Nic, you know. Okay, next picture. Let's do, how many, do you have like ten?

We could hitchhike home. Okay, let's do a hundred dollars per picture. Okay, now wait, don't raise your hand until the picture's over.

Now, this picture represents that there are many choices, but the one you learned here is only the best one. Okay, you're the picker. By the way, there's a special system.

He chooses you, you give him fifty dollars after the camera. No, I'm kidding. The special system is to plant seeds to have good ideas.

Yeah, cool. Okay, instead of what? Instead of planting bad seeds to have like a good consultant.

Okay. No, there are many good voices you can plant. Financial, family happiness, good health.

You can choose many voices. I think the creativity voice is the best one. You can say it's the new idea voice, because that voice you can use for all the other voices.

I have a new idea how to make money. I have a new idea how to get the wife to cook and wash the dishes. Or the husband.

Come to think of it, I think my wife did this already. Yeah, so, if you're very creative, you can be creative in many ways. So, in this class, we're focusing on the seed for creativity talking, voice.

Okay, don't forget, each picture is a hundred dollars. If you're smart, you raise your hand now. No, I'm just kidding.

Okay, next picture. Next picture. To have good ideas, the best thing to do is to go to classes that you don't understand.

Yeah, good. I don't mean go to every class you don't understand, but an easy suggestion. We have three classes every week.

It's free, and it's those translation classes. They are difficult, and it's the difficult things that make you strong. If you go to the gym, you know that.

And don't worry you don't understand everything, or you don't understand anything. It doesn't matter. Just sit there, and listen.

Look, Dharma, progress, it doesn't go like this. It goes like this. Like this, okay?

You will fail. You will stop coming to the class for three weeks. Then come back.

Meditation is the same. Meditate, meditate, meditate. Watch Netflix, Netflix, Netflix.

Then meditate, meditate, meditate. Netflix, Disney. Meditate, meditate, meditate.

Okay, so it's impossible to go up on a thing. Just don't, don't even think about it. You should mess up every month or something.

Your patience with, you know, not getting angry. Patience, patience, patience. Some guy driving his car, and, ah, motherfucker!

Then, patience, patience, patience. Like this, okay? Nobody's perfect.

If you're perfect, you don't have to come to this class. Then it means you're going to mess up sometimes. Expect it, and don't be too serious about it.

Although, I forgot my meditation yesterday. Shut up, meditate tomorrow.

[Speaker 2]
Okay.

[Speaker 1]
Alright, next picture.

[Speaker 2]
You guys ready?

[Speaker 1]
That's so easy.

[Speaker 2]
Whoa. Woohoo!

[Speaker 1]
Under 21, you have to use for your college scholarship. Si tienes menos de 21 años, lo tienes que usar para tu fondo de la universidad.

[Speaker 2]
Esa es una bolsa con un reloj, de, digo, con un candado de reloj que tiene un temporizador para que no la puedas abrir so you can't open it until the time has passed, the time you set.

[Speaker 1]
And that helps you to avoid the computer or the iPad. Woohoo! Alright!

Woohoo!

[Speaker 2]
Yay!

[Speaker 1]
Hey, if you come with me when I finish the talk, I'll give you one. I'll give you one. Alright.

It's a zip bag and also a bag to carry this. It's really, really nice. And it's my favorite thing in my whole life.

So, if you forget to come with me, it's okay. No, I'll give it to you. We'll get another one for Geshe Michael.

Alright, okay. Alright. You guys ready?

¿Están listos? Okay. Next picture.

Now. Before you answer. Antes de que respondan.

This is connected to the last picture. Esto está conectado a la última imagen. Wow.

Wow. So, in order to experience what Geshe-la read from the garden, you need a level of concentration that could come from putting your phone and laptop away for eight hours. That's the wrong answer and it's a good answer.

¿Te puedes traducir? Esa es una buena respuesta, pero no es la correcta. ¿Te puedes traducir?

Good, $100. But, what it means is, so, lo que significa es, before I started in the Good Night Book Club, antes de que empecé en el Club de las Buenas Noches, I actually stopped reading paper books. De hecho, dejé de leer libros de papel.

Because it's more trouble to carry them. I put all the books on my phone now. But still I enjoy to read before I fall asleep.

If I read my phone before I go to sleep, I don't sleep well. If I read a paper book for 10 or 15 minutes, I sleep very well. El candado que tiene el temporizador, mi sugerencia, es de 10 de la noche a 6 de la mañana.

Cuando estoy viajando y estoy solo en mi cuarto de hotel, que es un lugar muy peligroso, I know I cannot trust myself to put my phone away at the time lock. So I will ask my friend, he comes 10 o'clock, boom, boom, boom. Then I'm like, okay, okay.

He says, oh, computer, okay. Phone, yeah. Then I'm like, good night.

Hotel room TV remote control. Hotel room TV. Gisela, your room has two.

Gisela, tu cuarto tiene dos. So, I don't know, if you do this system, you will double your productivity. And that, what's that, was it Yves Saint Laurent?

Yeah? Yves Saint Laurent said you can buy the eye makeup or you can sleep for eight hours. Personally, I think a lady who slept for five hours and used a lot of Yves Saint Laurent, it doesn't look the same as eight hours.

Eight hours, very natural. And it makes your face look nice. It's the cheapest makeup.

You can go to, what's that place? Sephora. Sephora.

Okay, I tell you Min, if she wants to go to Sephora, make some excuse, don't go. You cannot get out under $300. Take her to the drugstore, the same lipstick is $2.

Take her to the drugstore, the same lipstick is $2. I'm telling you, I'm kidding. So, like that, it changes your face, and it makes your mind powerful.

You can do, you can make twice the money, basically, and you don't know because you never did it. I don't say one eight-hour night is going to change your income. If you do it for three weeks, your mind will get stronger, and you feel super healthy.

I'm grandpa, you know, I go to the yoga class, all the 20-year-olds are there, and they're like, wow, wow. You just need to get some sleep, and get rid of that goddamn phone. Let him have, let him have, how many hours?

16 hours a day. Then take eight hours for yourself. The phone was supposed to save you time, but it takes your time.

So, please, please, please, please, please, please, please try. If you don't have the power to do it, get a friend. If you don't have the power to do it, tell your friend.

He bought a house near my house. He used to live a thousand miles away. Now he lives two minutes from my house.

When my wife is on vacation or something, 10 o'clock, boom, boom, boom, boom, he comes to my house. 10 o'clock. So, get a friend.

If you're like me, you don't have the power to do it yourself. You need friends to help. The telephone is very similar to alcoholism.

We are all addicted. What's your favorite place to look at the phone? I sit on the special chair in the special room.

After one hour my wife is like, boom, boom. You know, two people in this house also pee-pee, you know. I'm sorry, there's new news about Trump, you know.

Okay, so be careful. Maybe you don't have the strength to do it yourself. Then get a friend.

Help each other. And you will never regret it. You will be a much more successful person.

Okay, please. Alright, I think McDonald's, Kentucky Fried Chicken, and Apple Corporation are going to assassinate me, okay? So, if it happens, you know what happened.

Next picture. Next picture. I like to have a mix of paper books when I go to sleep.

You know, sometimes I feel like I can read a little bit deeper book. Then I will read something like Diamond Cutter Business Book. Then sometimes I feel like I'm too tired.

I feel tired at night, that's why you go to sleep. Then I will read something like The Garden. So I suggest you keep two books.

One is a little bit deeper, and one is more relaxing. And you will fall into a deep sleep. With this book, you will fall into a deep sleep in six minutes.

Even if you read it in the morning, you will fall into a deep sleep. Okay, next picture. I did not show this picture.

I was supposed to show it yesterday, I didn't show it. It's the last picture from yesterday. And I told you there's one special method for planting seeds for inner voice.

And by the way, this guy is doing it. The seed is to think 24-7 in all the things that I'm seeing. What seed do I planted to see that happen?

Nice, $100. This class, these three days, is fun. Why?

Geshe-la didn't teach you a new meditation. When you don't do it, you feel more guilty than last week. Everybody likes to feel guilty, me too.

I had a student, he said, Geshe-la, don't teach me any more meditations. I said, why? He said, I already feel guilty I don't do any of the ones you taught me before.

Now you want to teach me a new one, I will feel more guilty. So this one, you just do it anywhere and nobody knows you're a meditator. Somebody believes he's thinking about a girl, he's not.

He's thinking, what seed did I plant to meet that guy? I was having a good day. I was driving to work.

Suddenly the radio played Jimi Hendrix. Then I was so happy. Then some guy, ah!

Good translation. Then just think. Do your meditation.

Do your creativity voice meditation. What seed did I plant for this stupid guy? Just think about it.

Then you go to work, get out of your car, forget about it. Those are short one minute meditations. Three times per day, five times per day.

Geshe-la, what time should I meditate? Meditate when something stupid happens and meditate when something nice happens. And say, God, I just met the most amazing people in Mexico City.

They were so nice. God, what did I do? What did I do?

Okay? Those are your meditation triggers. Something bad happens or something nice happens.

Then say, why me? Why me? My teacher, he taught me in many strange ways.

Whole day, all day. Everything, like, make me wash the toilet, I will learn something. So, he bought a television.

And he said, I'm the boss of the monastery, I can watch television. You are not the boss, you cannot watch television. And I'm like ...

Then he said, but, if there's something interesting on the television, I will ring a bell. You wonder why those lamas have bell? That's a television bell.

He said, when you hear the bell, run upstairs, there's something interesting on the television. Yeah, yeah. So, I worked near the stairs.

Then I run upstairs. Then, he said, watch the news. Then it's just some lady, her house burned down.

She left on iron, and her house burned down. And she's like crying. Why?

Why me? Why me? Many people do the same thing.

Why me? You know, why my house burned down? Then he said, okay, you can go.

I'm like, why you, why you? I said, go. Go.

Then I go, then I work hard. Then he, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Like after one hour, I run upstairs.

He said, watch this one. Then the handsome TV guy, he knocks on the door of a poor person in New York City, bad part of New York City. Dung, dung, dung, dung, dung, dung, dung, dung, dung, dung, dung, dung.

Then lady enter the door, poor lady. Then he says, you are the winner of the lottery. and he says to her, you are the winner of the lottery.

Here's a five million dollar check. They love to show that on the TV, you know. She's like, ahhh!

She's dancing, and then he asked me, what did she not ask? Why me? When you win the lottery, nobody says, why me?

When your house burns down, why me? Why me? If you are on the creativity voice team, you will why me all the time.

When something bad happens, it's natural, why me? But also when something good happens, why me? By the way, did you notice I'm not asking you, I'm not telling you what to think?

I just want you to ask the question. Then, how you answer the question is up to you. Okay, that's your problem.

I'm just asking you to ask the question. Something good happens, something bad happens, why me? And then you answer in your own way.

I don't think this meditation will take more than two or three minutes. Okay, because your life is moving. You can't sit for two hours and think about why some asshole cut you off in the traffic.

We don't have time. But I just want you to ask for 30 seconds, one minute. You give your own answer.

You know the seeds in your mind, I don't. Okay, let's get back to some serious money. Next picture.

Oh wait, I know the next picture. Oh, the money is over. Okay, go back.

You don't have to pay attention now. Why me? So, I went through the reading.

Let me see how's the time.

[Speaker 2]
Yeah, okay.

[Speaker 1]
We'll do a few little pieces from the reading. You can get the feeling of the reading. And then we'll finish up with some Q&A.

Okay, I'm going to read the Tibetan, it's good luck. Word. Word.

You do, here. Great, great, today. What?

Señor Niento. Niento? This one.

Just read, don't stay here. No, no, no. Okay, here we go.

Sweetly.

[Speaker 2]
Okay.

[Speaker 1]
By the way, he's the best teacher of Tibetan language. By the way, he's the best teacher of Tibetan language. He gives free class every week.

Twenty. Okay. Then, if you don't come to his class, you're crazy.

It's free. It's fun. He knows how to teach people to read very fast.

Better than I do. Okay, so, don't be crazy. Come to some of his classes.

[Speaker 2]
Go, go.

[Speaker 1]
Wait, the chair. Chair, chair. Bring back the chair.

Okay. All right. Thank you.

Okay, here's the translation. Entonces, tienes a alguien que toma forma dentro de su madre, quien por otro lado sigue adelante en forma de un anciano, sin cambios. Dinos ahora cómo funciona esto.

Alguien aquí es anciano. ¿Y quién ha entrado en el cuerpo de su madre? It's about the pen, okay?

Es acerca del bolígrafo. If this pen comes from the pen, it will never change. Nunca cambiaría.

It will never run out of ink. Nunca se quedaría sin tinta. If the pen comes from the pen, it will never run out of ink.

Nunca se va a quedar sin tinta. If the pen comes from me, si el bolígrafo viene de mí, if the pen comes from my seeds, si el bolígrafo viene de mis semillas, then every time I use the pen, entonces cada vez que use el bolígrafo, I'm going to change him to, what's that guy's name?

[Speaker 2]
Pancho Villa.

[Speaker 1]
Yeah, okay. Every time you use the pen, cada vez que use el bolígrafo, the ink goes out. Se agota la tinta.

It's not the ink going out. No es que se está terminando la tinta. Your seeds are using up your seeds.

Tus semillas se están acabando. I don't have any more money. Ya no tengo más dinero.

Where's my banker? Let's do another hundred. Hagamos otro cien.

You explain to my wife why the money. Tú le explicas a mi esposa por qué nos quedamos sin dinero. Big question, difficult question.

Una gran pregunta, difícil. When you write with the pen, cuando escribes con el bolígrafo, and you write something, y escribes algo, where's the writing come from? ¿De dónde viene la escritura?

Don't go like this, go like this. It's more money. No le hagan así, háganle así, es más dinero.

Azul.

[Speaker 2]
El bolígrafo viene de mis semillas. La escritura viene de mis semillas.

[Speaker 1]
The writing comes from my seeds. Muy bien, cien dólares. Muy bien, cien dólares.

I know. This is very difficult. Esto es muy difícil.

People say, Geshe-la, the pen exists on its own side. La gente dice, Geshe-la, el bolígrafo viene de su propio lado. Then I say, why?

Y luego dicen, ¿por qué? Look, it can write on the paper. Mira, puede escribir en el papel.

But the writing is not coming from the pen. Pero la escritura no viene del bolígrafo. When you move the pen, cuando mueves el bolígrafo, your mind makes writing on the paper.

tu mente hace la escritura en el papel. Now you have bad news. Ahora tienes malas noticias.

Why? ¿Por qué? Every minute of the next movie you see is coming which way?

Cada minuto de la siguiente película que veas viene como as. Oh, Geshe-la, I went to see Wolverine and what's the other one? Geshe-la, fui a ver Wolverine and Deadpool.

It's a new hit. I went, Wolverine and what? Deadpool.

Deadpool, okay. Wolverine and Deadpool. By the way, my meditation system, you can go to the movie and meditate.

En mi sistema de meditación, puedes ir al cine y meditar. Why so stupid? ¿Por qué tan estúpido?

What did I do? ¿Qué hice? So, who wrote the movie?

¿Quién escribió la película? You wrote the movie. Tú la escribiste.

Every minute comes up new pictures. Your mind put in those pictures. Cada minuto que salen nuevas imágenes, tu mente puso esas imágenes.

Don't forget. Then things get old. Y luego las cosas ya se vuelven viejas.

Why? Why does some movie, when it ends, you're so happy? Porque hay algunas películas que cuando terminan, terminan muy felices.

I'm so happy my movie finally finished. Estoy muy feliz de que por fin se acabó la película. I feel like I have to stay because I paid money.

Pero no me gusta la película. But I don't like the movie. When it's finished, I tell my wife, I'm so glad it's finished.

¿Por qué la película se acabó? Tus semillas se agotaron. Your seeds ran out.

Tus semillas se agotaron. And they will run out with your body also. Y se van a agotar con respecto a tu cuerpo también.

Your body was created inside your mother by seeds. Tu cuerpo fue creado dentro de tu madre por semillas. By the way, start with the chakras.

Chakras come first. Lo primero son los chakras. Then the channels.

Luego los canales. Then the bones form around the channels. Luego los huesos se forman alrededor de los canales.

And then the flesh forms around the outside of the bones. Y luego la carne se forma afuera de los huesos. During the weeks inside your mom.

Durante las semanas adentro de la madre. 36 weeks. Each week has a different chakra, for example.

Pero luego terminas. All of those coming from seeds. Todo eso viene de semillas.

As you use your body, it wears out. Se va agotando. If the pen comes from its own side, there's no reason why it should ever run out of ink.

I'll say it again. If the pen comes from its own side, it will never run out of ink. If the movie is not coming from you, it will last forever.

Okay? But if it's coming from your seeds, it will get old. And it will die.

Okay? Now, question. We could borrow some money.

Podemos pedir dinero prestado. Word has all the money he won in the past. Word tiene todo el dinero que ganó en la clase.

Probably spending on all those kids. Probablemente ya se lo gastaron todas esas niñas. So, if everything is coming, in this book, en este libro, in the poetry, it's a discussion, it's a fight, es una pelea, entre dos personas.

There's an angel and there's a devil. Hay un ángel y hay un diablo. Sometimes in the poetry the angel is talking.

And sometimes in the poetry the devil is talking. Which one is talking this verse? A hundred dollars.

And why? ¿Y por qué? El ángel.

The angel. She said the angel is talking. Ella dijo que el ángel está hablando.

[Speaker 2]
Porque está creando vida desde sus propias semillas.

[Speaker 1]
Because he's creating life from his own seeds. Yeah, she's explaining why you get old. Sí, ella está explicando por qué envejeces.

She's explaining why your last relationship fell apart. Ella te está explicando por qué tu última relación se terminó. And it's good advice.

Es un buen consejo. So, it must be the angel, I think. Así que tiene que ser el ángel.

A hundred dollars. Cien dólares. We're going to do two more and then we can do Q&A if we have time.

Vamos a hacer dos más y luego vamos a hacer preguntas y respuestas. And I wanted to, can Oscar come up to read? Oscar puede subir a leer, por favor.

He's the second best bass player in this room. Él es el segundo mejor bajista en esta habitación. I don't know how to do this.

Let me see. Can you read it from there? I'm sorry.

It's not shown here. Oh, there it is. Here.

Thank you. Thank you. Wow.

You ready? También se volvería completamente irrelevante alguna vez comenzar a sentir un pensamiento donde consideremos alguna cosa y sostenerla como mía. Porque ninguno de ellos sería jamás mi cabeza, mi boca, la punta de mi nariz, los sentidos de mis ojos, todo mi cuerpo o mi vientre, o mi columna, o mis rodillas, el hambre en mi estómago, la ropa sobre mi espalda, mis campos, mi casa, aquellos que trabajan para mí, mi esposa, mis hijos, mi cualquier otra cosa, todas y cada una de las cosas mías.

Good, okay. If things are not coming from seeds, si las cosas no vienen de las semillas, nothing can be mine. Nada puede ser mío.

Money, not even your mouth can be your mouth. Ni siquiera tu boca puede ser tu boca. Your nose cannot be your nose.

Tu nariz no puede ser tu nariz. Your tummy cannot be your tummy. Tu estómago no puede ser tu estómago.

Your house cannot be your house. Tu casa no puede ser tu casa. Your spouse, husband or wife, cannot be yours.

No pueden ser tuyos. Children cannot be yours. If they don't come from seeds.

Si no vienen de semillas. Things that don't come from seeds can never be yours. Las cosas que no vienen de las semillas nunca podrían ser tuyas.

Things that don't come from seeds can never be yours. Las cosas que no vienen de las semillas nunca podrían ser tuyas. Things that, now it gets deep, ok?

Ahora se pone profundo, ok? Things that don't come from seeds cannot be connected to other things. Las cosas que no vienen de semillas no podrían estar conectadas con otras cosas.

When you say, Maitri is my son or grandson or something, dirías, Maitri es mi hijo o mi nieto. You say you have a connection with this child. Dices que tienes una conexión con este niño.

Pero si no hay semillas no puede haber esa conexión. Si Maitri viene de su propio lado no puede tener una conexión con su mamá. Si Maitri viene de su propio lado no puede tener una conexión con su mamá.

No puede venir de su madre. Only things which come from seeds can come from other people. Solo las cosas que vienen de las semillas pueden venir de otras personas.

If the pen comes from its own side viene de su propio lado I can never own it. Nunca lo puedo poseer. Because it's not coming from my seeds.

Porque no viene de mis semillas. This connection is also coming from my seeds. La conexión también viene de mis semillas.

When I lose the connection that's also coming from my seeds. Cuando pierdo la conexión eso también viene de mis semillas. If things don't come from seeds they will never get old.

Si las cosas no vinieran de las semillas nunca se agotarían. If things don't come from seeds no one can have them. Si las cosas no vienen de semillas nadie las puede tener.

Tienes que reflexionar acerca de eso. A world which doesn't come from seeds is impossible. Un mundo que no viene de semillas es imposible.

A pen which doesn't come from seeds cannot run out of ink. Un bolígrafo que no viene de semillas no se puede quedar sin tinta. You cannot buy a pen which doesn't come from seeds.

No puedes comprar un bolígrafo que no venga de semillas. Sometimes you need a pen and your friend gives it to you. A veces necesitas un bolígrafo y tu amigo te la da.

Sometimes you need a pen and you go to the store and they say sorry, we're out. You don't get pens from the store. You get pens from seeds.

You have to share all the things you have. Then you get more. Jesus said that over and over and over.

Jesus is a really cool seed master. He talks about seeds all the time. What you want, give it to somebody else.

Somebody asks you for your sweater. Someone steals your sweater. Get their telephone number and ask them, do you also need my coat?

Someone hit you on this side. Say, oh, this one also good to hit. Only a seed master will talk like that.

Are you ready Rob? We have enough gas to get home. We have credit card.

Who wrote this verse? Who wrote this verse? I know the correct answer is you.

But is it angel talking or devil talking? And why? The angel?

Yeah, but never answer a money question with a question mark. You have to stay with confidence. It has to be the angel.

Why? Porque? He's talking about because he's coming for my seeds.

You got that picture with the lady and the plant? Never forget this lady. Seeds.

Seeds. If they're talking about seeds, they must be the angel. The devil doesn't like to talk about seeds.

All right, where is she? Okay. Okay.

Okay, last one. La ultima. Ultima cosa.

Let's see. I'm sorry. Okay.

Okay. I was thinking it'd be nice to have Gibson come up and do this. Gibson is a great, great translator from Taiwan.

Amazing translator. Un traductor buenisimo. I have no idea what he's doing in Mexico City.

But I'm happy. And I'd like to welcome his partner, Emily. Gibson is specializing in what we call pocket Dharma books.

He's finished two of them already. And they are about 600 years old. And the idea is to have a small book that you can carry in your purse.

So, they have a nice beautiful rest house there. People can take a shower. They can relax, have some food.

And then they get back on the top of the train and they work together. So, they've been helping to support that for over ten years. They, okay, don't worry, I'm not going to ask you.

But for Taiwan people, the team gives them this box and every night they put their change in the box. And in this way we have raised many hundreds of thousands of dollars. They also support the team which is translating these books into Spanish.

People ask me, Geshe-la, you didn't come to Mexico City for so long. Then, they say, why you came back? Because I remember when I went to see the big cathedral in Mexico City.

Right next to is a churreria. So, on that day I became very religious. I always want to go to the cathedral.

Okay? Alright, thank you. See you next year.
