00:00What is the definition of a simple man?

00:01He simply...

00:02Close your eyes please.

00:03All of you.

00:04How many fingers?

00:05Keep your eyes closed.

00:06How many fingers?

00:07Look at the damn complexity of the question.

00:10Not one among you noble fellows has been able to answer.

00:14More complex than the J.E. paper.

00:16Beats the rigor of rocket science.

00:17How many fingers?

00:18Open your eyes.

00:19Ridiculous.

00:20There's two.

00:21There's two.

00:21And you still can't answer it.

00:22It's so easy.

00:24Obviously.

00:24But only when you see that's the definition of simplicity.

00:28The simple man just simply sees.

00:31To be simple is to simply see.

00:34And then it becomes very difficult to explain to someone who just does not simply see.

00:39You have seen and the other one has not.

00:40Now how do you explain?

00:41My advice.

00:42Don't explain.

00:43Encourage him to see.

00:45Your explanations will never help.

00:46Keep your eyes closed.

00:47I'm trying to explain the number of fingers.

00:49Does it help?

00:50Does it help?

00:51The only thing that can help is if I can somehow encourage you or tempt you or whatever.

00:55To bring you to a point of seeing.
