00:00There is no pain to anyone, if the world is full of children.
00:04But there is a lot of pain. If everyone is happy, what will the world be?
00:08There is a world like this in the world.
00:10And this question has been asked to me by 15-year-olds and 150-year-olds alike.
00:16What if everybody turns into a Buddha? From where will the new kids come?
00:21That is the question exactly. Are you really so interested in the welfare of the world?
00:25Are you really so much in love with the society that you are wondering about the society?
00:29No. The fact of the matter is, you are afraid what will happen to you
00:33if you allow yourself to understand what I am saying.
00:38You are just afraid of the society. It is not social welfare that you are interested in.
00:43Social welfare, whenever it has happened, has come from the Buddhas of the world.
00:50And they have not wondered what will happen to the society.
00:53They have just been themselves.
