00:00You want the other person to be nice. We are such idiots.
00:03We want the other person to be nice. And if the other person is not nice, we feel there is no love.
00:10We do not understand anything.
00:12We are prepared to give up our life. Probably somebody comes and says two sweet words to us.
00:17Oh, he's my friend. Why? Because he talks sweetly. He comes and hugs me and then he says, Baba
00:23how are you? Nice? And because I live only at the surface, I'm alright with that.
00:28But there is another one who admonishes, who chastises, who calls a spade a spade,
00:33who is terribly real. And I'll say this fellow is my enemy because he tells me that I'm an idiot.
00:38The doctor is telling you, you have cancer. Is he your friend or enemy? But look at our stupidity.
00:44We want the doctor to tell us that everything is so nice about me.
00:49You are rotting. You're stinking. But you want the doctor to certify that everything is good.
