Page 227, spring up out of the earth. At that time, the Bodhisattva Mahasattvas who had come from other lands, numerous as a son of eight gandhis, aroused in the great assembly and with folded hands saluted and spoke to the Buddha, saying, World Honored One, if the Buddha will allow us, after his extinction, diligently and zealously to protect and keep, read and recite, copy and worship

[01:06]

this sutra in this Saha world, we would preach it abroad in this land. Thereupon, the Buddha addressed all the hosts of those Bodhisattva Mahasattvas, Enough, my good sons, there is no need for you to protect and keep this sutra, wherefore, because in my Saha world, there are in fact Bodhisattva Mahasattvas numerous as the sons of sixty thousand gandhis. Each one of these Bodhisattva's hands are reckoned numerous as the sons of sixty thousand gandhis. These persons are able, after my extinction, to protect and keep, read and recite and preach

[02:11]

abroad this sutra. When the Buddha had thus spoken, all the earth of the three thousand great thousand lands of the Saha world trembled and quaked, and from its midst there issued together innumerable thousand million courtesans of Bodhisattva Mahasattvas. All these Bodhisattvas with their golden huge bodies, thirty-two signs and boundless radiance, had all before been dwelling in infinite space below this Saha world. All these Bodhisattvas, hearing the voice of Muni Buddha, preaching sprang forth from below. Each one of these Bodhisattvas was the commander

[03:14]

of a great cause leading our retinue as the sons of sixty thousand gandhis. Moreover, others' retinues numerous as the sons of fifty thousand, forty thousand, thirty thousand, twenty thousand, ten thousand gandhis. Moreover, down to the sons of one gandhis, the sons of half a gandhis, a quarter of it down to a fraction of a thousand million courtesans of nayutas. Moreover, a thousand million courtesans of nayutas of followers. Moreover, a million courtesans of followers. Moreover, a thousand million, a hundred million or even a hundred and even ten. Moreover, those who lead five, four, three, two or one disciple. Moreover,

[04:24]

one who is alone, happy in the practice of isolation. Such Bodhisattvas as these are immeasurably illimitable beyond the powers of comprehension, by calculation or companion. When these Bodhisattvas had emerged from earth, each went up to the wonderful stupa of the precious seven in the sky, where were to tell the abundant treasures and Sakyamuni Buddha on the arrival, on the arrival they made of essence, with faces to the ground, to both world and ones, and going to the Buddhas

[05:25]

seated on the lion thrones under the jewels trees. They also saluted them three times, make processions round them on their right with folded hands, revealing them and exploring them with all kinds of Bodhisattva's hymns. Then they stood to one side with delight gazing upon both world and one. If you read this chapter, it's very dramatic. You can see very dramatic scenes. It looks like watching the opera. It's like watching opera, beautiful opera.

[06:27]

If you read this one, or in Japanese, we have an old play, Kabuki. Beautiful stage. Anyway, in the previous chapter, I think, precious stupa. You remember, I think, stupa, the sprung from the earth and dwelling in the sky. And Sakyamuni Buddha asked all Bodhisattvas, Maha-sattvas from the world

[07:35]

to come together to the stupa. And then all Bodhisattvas, Maha-sattvas from all over the world come to stupa together. That time, the door of the stupa can be opened by Buddha. Then anyway, Buddha invited all Bodhisattvas, Maha-sattvas from the world, and then the door was opened. At that time, we can see the precious, his name is Abundant Treasures Tathagata are sitting in the seat inside of the stupa.

[08:43]

And this Abundant Treasures Tathagata was very, I want to say, just like a mummy. But that I told you, I explained the meaning of this Abundant Treasures Tathagata. And that is a kind of a symbol of the Buddha's teaching handed down from generation to generation by all human beings from century after century. So it doesn't actually work, but only teachings have been handed down from generation to generation.

[09:49]

And then this stupa, the Tathagatas anyway, are sitting in his seat inside of the stupa. And then at that time, the stupa, the Abundant Treasures Tathagata anyway said, Your preaching is right, exactly right. Means how wonderful Lotus Sutra is. Your teaching is exactly correct. So this Tathagata proves how wonderful Lotus Sutra is. And then Tathagata invited Shakyamuni Buddha to his seat and he shares his seat, half of his seat and sit down together inside of the stupa.

[11:05]

So Buddha, Buddha Shakyamuni and stupa, Abundant Treasures Tathagata sit together in one seat. That means Buddha's teaching and image of Buddha. That is in Tathagata's, you know, Abundant Treasure Tathagata is exactly symbol of the Buddha's teaching and also image of the Buddha. So actually it doesn't work. Nothing but the symbol of the Buddha's teaching and the image of Buddha. But now its doors open means Tathagata's symbol of Buddha's teaching and symbol of Buddha's anyway exist now. How make them alive?

[12:06]

Then Buddha Tathagata must be there. So this author anyway bring the Buddha Shakyamuni and let him sit together means that teaching and image of Buddha's exactly work in people's life. That is the Buddha Tathagata's coming. So authors anyway let them sit together in one seat in the stupa. And then in that time all Bodhisattva, Mahasattva watch these scenes. And then they feel they were really so far from the stupa in the sky. Stupa, remember stupa is exactly hanging in the sky.

[13:10]

So people, Bodhisattva, laymen, laywomen and all Bodhisattva feel we are so far from them so they wanted to go there. So by the Buddha's powers, supreme powers, they were invited also to the inside of the stupa. And then anyway they can go. And then in the sutra they can go. So there are three. Image of the Buddha's teaching, image of the Buddha. That is the main significance of abundant treasure Tathagata. And then the Buddha comes together, sits together.

[14:18]

And then human beings, Bodhisattvas all come together. And that Bodhisattva as I told you before, that Bodhisattva, Mahasattva are really people who really wanted to teach essence of Buddha's teaching. Maybe a little bit, which is a little different from Hinayana people traditionally at those days. The two groups, Bodhisattva, one are a bunch of Bodhisattvas, the other is a bunch of Bodhisattvas. These Bodhisattvas are very conservative. The other Bodhisattvas group are not conservative. They try to understand the essence of Buddha's teaching, spirit of Buddha's teaching, quality of Buddha's life, anyway they try.

[15:26]

But this traditional, existing Bodhisattva groups didn't accept those ideas, new ideas, new ideas of Buddha's teaching created by new Bodhisattva group. So, these Bodhisattvas, new Bodhisattva groups suffered a lot at those days. So, anyway, that's why in this chapter, anyway many Bodhisattvas, Mahasattvas come from the earth, come up, spring up, spring from, spring up from the earth.

[16:32]

And in the sutra, this chapter, these Bodhisattvas were people who had been educated by the Buddha in the past for many, many years by Shakyamuni Buddha. That means, for a long, long time, these new Bodhisattva groups were not accepted by existing conservative Bodhisattva groups. That's why they were anyway pressed at the corners, they didn't appear in the human society. So, that means, that's why author created Bodhisattva groups under the ground for many, many years. But they were not different from these conservative Bodhisattvas. Probably, they may be better than them.

[17:37]

Understanding deeply and creating wonderful scriptures, etc. But anyway, at those days, new ideas were not accepted by these Bodhisattvas. That's why those Bodhisattvas didn't appear in the human society in the same way as old conservative Bodhisattva groups. That's why they were just like under the ground for many, many years. But they had been educated by Buddha Shakyamuni. That's what he said in this chapter, if you read. Anyway, the Bodhisattva asked Shakyamuni, who are they?

[18:41]

Who are they coming up from the ground? Then Buddha Shakyamuni explained, they have been educated by me in the world, in the past, for many, many years ago. So, already they were educated. That is new Bodhisattva group coming from the earth. Anyway, stupas also come from the earth and dwell in the sky. So, here is the idea of the sky. Sky means that which is in between heaven and earth. So, heaven means future.

[19:43]

Underground means past. And on earth means present. The sky is completely in between the sky and the earth and heaven. That means beyond. Beyond the idea of time, past, present and future anyway. That is sky. So stupa is hanging in the sky means that stupa as a symbol of the Buddhist faith is not the place where the Buddha Shakyamuni's relics enshrined inside of the stupa.

[20:49]

This is not the symbol of faith. The stupa as a symbol of faith is now, anyway, well, abandoned treasure totals and also Buddha Shakyamuni and also all Bodhisattvas anyway exist there. It means what traditions, teachings and also image of Buddha as an object of worship and also Buddha Shakyamuni that is historical Buddha Shakyamuni there. Other human beings who were born in this world. So it's not divinity or spirit. It's really human beings. Then this is a little symbol and also teaching mentioned by these Buddhas anyway.

[21:53]

But for many many years Buddha died in the past. So many many years human beings anyway try to image what the Buddha was. That is a symbol of abandoned Buddha totality. Abandoned treasure totality. And Buddha's anyway here, Shakyamuni Buddha's here and also there are human beings there. Human beings. So human beings, Buddha totality and symbol of the teaching and symbol of the image of the Buddha all come together inside of the stupa. That is a symbol of the faith. Because teaching doesn't work alone. Teaching must be a work together with human beings. And also symbol of the Buddha image doesn't work.

[23:00]

So it needs anyway human beings And also it is not a mysterious story. Not only mysterious story. It must be anyway in accord with human history. That is Buddha Shakyamuni anyway. So all three are put together. Right now. That is right now. But right now is not present. We can re-image. We can image. It's not that this happens event and not in the past. Not in the future. It's really now. But now is not the picture of the present. We can image. That is complete beyond. Time, present, past, present, future. Then here, there. That is anyway picture, story of the previous childhood.

[24:06]

So it's very interesting. If you imagine these stories in your head. It's beautiful stories comes up. Pictures comes up. And also it is exactly truth. So if you are really attached to the past, present, and future. That story doesn't work. Because Buddha Shakyamuni is what? Who is Buddha Shakyamuni? What is worship of Buddhism? Worship of Buddhism is Shakyamuni Buddha. Yes, it is. But who is? Who is he? He is a human being? Oh, yes. Human being. He is now a human being. He is already a Buddha. So he is a sort of divinity? Spiritual entity?

[25:08]

Oh, maybe so. Who doesn't live? Maybe next chapter, you know, the eternal life. Buddha's life he explains. So you can say so. So you can attach to anyway past. You can attach to present. Also you can attach to the future anyway. So you have to accept Buddha anyway beyond idea of time. Past, present, future. Whatever you think. We should accept the object of worship is anyway Dharmakaya Buddha or Nirmanakaya Buddha or Sambhogakaya Buddha. We always discuss in the history of Buddhism. Even in sort of schools still we discuss what is real Buddha

[26:10]

as an object of worship. Dharmakaya Buddha means exactly spiritual entities beyond human beings. Beyond Gautama Siddhartha who was born in this world. So we discuss. Or historical Buddha is object of worship for sort of them or not. Or Sambhogakaya Buddha. We often discuss about it. But in sort of them according to Dogen Zenji the object of worship is completely three of them together. You can attach to either one of them anyway. All put together. This is the symbol of the worship for sort of Zen Buddhism.

[27:11]

So that's why in this sutra also anyway stupas, the abundant treasure totals and Buddhist ceremonies and human beings, bodhisattvas all come together. And also they exist exactly beyond time, idea of time, past, present, future. It's there. Even though you don't believe it. But it's there. This is Buddhism which exists now. So that's why we should accept Buddhas like this. And also we should accept we should deal with Buddha Shakyamuni like this. And also we should accept receive and lead and respect the teaching of Buddhas just like this.

[28:13]

Beyond. Idea of time, past, present, future. Same applies to your life too. We should accept our lives anyway complete beyond time, idea of time, past, present, future. What we do our best to deal with human body, human mind, whoever you are, day by day. That is important attitude to all human beings. That is a teaching of previous chapter anyway. That's why stupa comes up. Stupa also comes up from the earth means anyway faith, Buddhist faith anyway didn't appear in the stupa didn't appear in the human world for many

[29:16]

years because so far stupa became a symbol of the faith well, accepted by human beings, Bodhisattvas, Buddhists you know. Believing stupa is the place where the Buddha's relics was enshrined. That's all. It's not real Buddhist faith. That's why stupa anyway didn't appear in the world that's why under the ground. Then stupa comes up from the earth. That means now stupa appears in the sky as the exact symbol of Buddhist faith which is true. That is the story. Then anyway this chapter comes from this chapter anyway he used another

[30:20]

ideas say look at the page 238 the note Sanskrit Akasha space Sanskrit Akasha space is often used as a synonym for Sunyata that space here is look at eight lines from the top there is a 32 signs and boundless radium

[31:25]

had all before been dwelling in infinite space below this Saha world now so this scene anyway in the previous chapter Bodhisattvas anyway all Bodhisattvas had great vows and made great determination to receive and keep and recite studies copies and pay homage to Lotus Sutra teaching to all sentient beings after Buddha's extinction then here anyway say we do we have great determination to accept

[32:25]

Lotus Sutra to teach after your death then Buddha says enough now there is a wonderful Bodhisattvas then immediately whole world are shaped and lots of cracks just like earthquake and then Bodhisattva comes up numbers countless number of Bodhisattvas comes up from the earth just like opera in the stage sometimes people come up from the stage just like this also this Bodhisattvas really just like a goat goat huge body beautiful all Bodhisattvas comes up then they were going to stupas where abundant

[33:28]

treated Tathagatas and Buddha Tathagatas and all Bodhisattvas human beings there okay then two Buddhas sit in the stupas in the sky and all Bodhisattvas from the ground comes up and then go to this these Buddhas and pay homage how beautiful it is you know beautiful scenery comes up and then they realized at that time this world this world where you know they were abundant treated Tathagatas and Buddha Shakyamuni all Bodhisattvas and also Bodhisattvas coming from earth now anyway all come together in the stupas and then they realized exactly whole world is covered with

[34:29]

akasha akasha space whole world is anyway embraced akasha by akasha means space space that is space idea of space is also very interesting here is Upanishad Upanishad in the Upanishad and in this book page 120 in the center of the castle of Brahman our own body there is a small shrine in the form of lotus flowers

[35:31]

lotus flower is really connected with lotus sutra anyway in India anyway lotus sutra is very symbol of the Buddhist the beautiful ideal image of human existence lotus flower lotus flower is sort of Bodhisattvas natural organic Bodhisattva so Bodhisattva is idea we create, human being create as the beautiful ideal image of human existence what we want what we want to be human being in the future anyway this is a symbol of Bodhisattva idea of Bodhisattva lotus flower is really organic ideal image of human existence so there is

[36:32]

in the center of the castle of Brahman there is a small shrine in the form of lotus flower and within can be found a small space small space we should find who dwells there and we should want to know him then the little space within the heart is as great as this vast universe that's you know first anyway in the center of the castle of Brahman Brahman is divinity in India they believe

[37:33]

Brahman and also Atman Atman is within you so Atman and Brahman come together if they walk they become one at that time this is real enlightenment so the Brahman in the center of the castle of the Brahman Brahman's house in the center of the Brahman's house there is a small shrine, small house so called lotus flowers so that's little space little house so called lotus flowers and within can be found a small space in the house there is in the house of the Brahman anyway that house is located in the center of the

[38:35]

Brahman's world then there is a small house and in small house there is anyway space that space is the little space this house little space within can be found a small space and then we should find who dwells there and we should want to know him and anyway who exists there in the small house in the center of the Brahman that is Buddha's world anyway Buddha land Brahman Divinity, God whatever you say, small house there in the small house there is a small space and this small space, little space is where?

[39:36]

within the heart within the heart means within the human heart anyway so they believe space is in the heart so expanse of the heart is the heart is nothing but one of the human organs heart is so the heart is believed as anyway space so here the little space within the heart is as great as this vast universe so that remember think of this the heart space so idea of space is little bit different from sky in the previous chapter

[40:38]

space is anyway sort of little house in the space is within the little house in the center of the Buddha's world and this space little space is in the human heart that space is not little space it is as vast as whole universe so they realize space in the human heart also this space is really extending into vastness of universe that is called maybe sunyata yeah so this is a very interesting idea so Upanishads already believe like this so akasha

[41:41]

akasha is exactly different from sky in the previous chapter so akasha is anyway what this sutra wanted to tell us is all bodhisattvas anyway come up from the ground and they realize anyway the whole world including stupas and buddhas anyway and human beings are completely embraced by anyways akashas akashas that akasha where is it? it is in the human heart not little heart in the little space in the little heart is not little space it is

[42:41]

as vast as universe so anyway we have to see anyway human life in the heart beyond idea of time past, present, future that is idea of sky so also anyway bring stupas the buddhas anyway abandoned to totality and all buddhas anyway bring to the sky anyway that is we should understand human beings don't touch to past only past only present, only future anyway beyond idea of time past, present, future regardless of whether you judge, evaluate your life for human life anyway it is valuable so we should accept our human beings human world beyond

[43:42]

time, idea of time present, past, future anyway but it is not good enough then anyway we should understand human beings, human world including buddhas human histories human civilizations anyway covered with akashas that means space that is huge complete huge that is empty sunyata where is sunyata? sunyata is not idea of philosophical term this is in the human heart where is it? can't you find the space or sunyata in the human heart? yes, how? well, it is vast as universe

[44:43]

so you can finally, you can find space and space and sunyata anyway in the heart but the moment when you find sunyata in the heart it becomes vast immediately just like I told you before you know a drop of dew touches the space you know exactly it extends you know extends all directions walking you know to space so it is not a moment in a moment simultaneously there is huge world you know moment anyway extends to all directions in space that is

[45:46]

actual reality it is reality of a drop of dew which exists in the process, in the time process anyway where your body, your heart your breathing, your eyes trees, birds anyway but nothing but the moment but that moment is just like a little heart you know your little heart your breathing, your intestines your stomach, anyway your pit you know that tiny if you find if you find moment moment moment in your pit in your heart in your intestines immediately extends it is not moment it is really space

[46:47]

huge world then at that time anyway all come together your heart, your breathing hormones and eyes nerves all come together and work this is working organism that is anyway how they work how do they work organically like this in the organism we don't know complete beyond idea of time past, present, future or moment how moment extends into space vastness of space we don't know how so complete beyond idea of time anyway we should accept this heart and simultaneously heart is not moment it is

[47:48]

connected with your bodies and hormones energies and all things in the space and then simultaneously your heart extends whole universe that's why this is called emptiness so called truth so in the truth we don't know how each moment connected with other moment and create and we don't know how each moment connected with other moment and extend into the vastness of space we don't know but the moment when the moment when each instance exist it really works that's it we don't know yet

[48:48]

how just like water I told you before molecule of water anyway exist many molecules exist but scientist doesn't know how each molecules put together and work together then that's function of each molecules that's function of interconnection interpenetration among the molecules let them be as water but we water as it is but we don't know how so finally all we have to do is just accept that reality as water is right now here that's all we have to do that is what

[49:48]

we should accept life beyond idea of time past present future and also that water is that moment you can see right now it's very vast because connect into there is fantastic fantastic movement so called interconnection interpenetration among the molecules among the space among the anyway all sentient beings then each molecules anyway extend all sentient beings so that's why we can't see the water right now but it's not the small things it is in the center of the brahman and then this small space anyway can be found in the heart but this heart is just like as vast as universe that's why Upanishad said like this

[50:50]

and it's also here the lotus sutra that's why lotus sutra also Buddha Shakyamuni and abandoned totality all sentient beings all buddhas bodhisattvas coming from the earth found this beautiful silence come with space that is huge world comes up so from this point teaching scriptures are not scriptures sometimes Zen masters completely ignore scriptures and image of Buddha burning the image of Buddha and keep his body warm well you can see you can read the stories like this but I don't think we should

[51:52]

deal with scriptures and image of Buddha well like this I don't think so we should accept Buddhist scriptures and image of Buddha are accepted and beyond idea of time past present future and also image of Buddha you can see now is symbol of time and also space vastness of universe it's really symbol of universe and also image of Buddha is not symbol of universe other ideas

[52:52]

it's really function real function of the universe you should know this scripture obviously explains how the world works how world is structured how world and human beings are interconnected but it's not ideas it's really function real function so behind the words anyway you have to know vastness of the universe that is a scripture but if you attach to just a word you can understand that moment you know tiny space tiny space little space which exist in the small lines in the center of the Brahman but it's still ideas it doesn't work

[53:54]

but you should find this small space in the heart and also this heart the space must be anyway vastness of universe that time anyway you can understand vastness of the world behind the world behind the image of Buddha behind the form of your body behind the five scandals behind the five scandals behind your personal history there is a huge world anyway appears at that time you can really appreciate your existence because it is completely beyond human evaluations that's why Buddha says we are Buddha like today's do you have a question? said that

[55:10]

those who spring up out of the earth were less conservative than the Bodhisattvas already on the earth what? Bodhisattva? conservatives? Bodhisattva? the ones who spring up out of the earth were less conservative than the Bodhisattvas already on the earth why was that? Bodhisattva already on the earth that's what I understood you said the ones on the earth were more conservative than the ones who sprang up because they have been the other ones why was that? I didn't understand why was that? why was that?

[56:12]

you don't understand the conservative Bodhisattvas which exist on the earth? why? why were the ones who sprang up out of the earth less conservative? not conservative they were less conservative less conservative why was that? why? how? why? I don't know I just didn't understand why? why they were the ones under the earth the ones who already understood and believed the lotus sutra and the ones on top of it what do you know? so that's

[57:22]

historically you can see twenty schools subdivided buddhism is subdivided into twenty schools already after the Buddha's death of course there is some problems that comes up when the founders and the teachers die after teachers die very confusion comes up very naturally not only the Indians so not only the buddhism but any kind of religions after teachers death little confusion comes up so many ideas comes up very naturally just like grasses and the trees in the spring new grasses comes up what you have never seen before last year new grasses comes up

[58:23]

so that is anyway human world so while the teacher exists all sentient beings focus on the teachers so no problem when he dies anyway it comes up very naturally then it's very difficult to how to organize those ideas so that's why there is a problem because no teachers, no leaders there so just coming up so we don't know how to do this but very naturally all sentient beings are anyway working organically so always shifting the natures the organism of the natures always shifting human beings, human world

[59:25]

and then some are coming down through the shift some the left very naturally you understand that is what conservative and bodhisattva groups comes up very naturally on the other hand anyway new bodhisattva groups but new bodhisattva groups are new so actually whatever age we exist anyway you know pretty well new idea is not easily accepted by people so for many many years new ideas are anyway out of the corner look at not only religion look at the art

[60:25]

Van Gogh Van Gogh while he was alive he was now famous after his death then it's come up because people don't believe how wonderful he is so for many many years that's why these authors anyway new bodhisattva groups are not accepted that's why the author let them live underground in the stories that's very natural but they are not different from human bodhisattvas, conservative bodhisattvas that's why Buddha says they had been educated by me then now times come so spring up

[61:27]

you know Buddhism came to United States almost 100 years ago but for many years you know Buddhism wasn't accepted still Buddhism is a little bit underground but it comes up anyway and the other day yesterday I look at the Time magazine you can see you can read the Time magazine new issues Time magazine one of the Christian missionaries is an investigator of how the religion is going including Christianity and Buddhism all religions in the world according to statistics

[62:33]

in a way so you can see the number Christianity, Buddhism Hinduism from 1900 to 200 1900 and also 1980 you can see the statistic number there 1900 1980 and also 200 1900 very interesting numbers there you can see the Time magazine anyway Buddhism is pretty low Buddhism is pretty low Christianity is top I don't know why but it's wonderful top

[63:34]

so anyway Buddhism particularly in Europe still Buddhism is underground oh sorry but they are still they have been educated by Buddha already so someday it comes up he is out he is out I think there there is also Mahayana Buddhist very wonderful understanding of the last ages creating wonderful stories with Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita and they accepted

[64:36]

the idea of Upanishads Bhagavad Gita and created beautiful stories like this what is that first paragraph in this chapter the some Bodhisattva, Mahasattvas ask the Buddha they will keep and protect the sutra he says that there is no need for you to keep and protect the sutra I don't understand why he would tell his group that there is no need for them to do it to keep and protect the sutra

[65:36]

well it doesn't mean ignoring them but at that time the Buddha Shakyamuni anyway make them calm because they were very excited excited to see wonderful sceneries and predicting lots of people and Bodhisattvas, disciples and by this situation everybody was very excited and exactly paying homage to the Buddha Shakyamuni and completely accepted all situations so Buddha says calm your mind, calm down anyway, cool man then we have

[66:38]

another Bodhisattva here that's nice so Buddha anyway shows different aspect of the human world while they were excited they don't understand that they are in different world so that Bodhisattvas are including the Mahakasyapas and Yashodaras and Raghuras and other Bodhisattvas major ten disciples and all other Bodhisattvas means including Hinayana Buddhism anyway broadly speaking which group is that? Yashodaras and Yino Yashodara is that a group that has to cool down? yeah so another group here new groups

[67:38]

that is for new groups new Bodhisattva group anyway so that's why we are a great person who deserves to accept Buddha's teaching and we can have we can deserve to have a mission to teach but Buddha says enough that's enough I accept I appreciate your determination that's wonderful but anyway look at the other world you know so

[68:58]

this chapter is sort of preparation for next chapter next chapter is explaining the eternal life of Buddha life of Buddha so eternal life of Buddha is Buddha you can understand and in terms of ideal time so this is really preparation for next chapter understanding eternal life of Buddha
