I don’t know when I’m leaving yet, so you’re welcome to stay as long as you can see my nose around. [It says,] “They will stay as long as possible!” It doesn’t say, “If they can stay or not.” It says, “They will stay as long as possible!” Who’s the boss in the house here? […] Like, as long as they have money, as long as their job’s OK, they will just stay. Don’t care whether I like it or not. You see? See? Why apply? Why bother to apply? They will stay anyway, as long as they want.
No end for a mother with many kids and no husband. You have one? You volunteer to be a father of all these kids? You know what? I read your report. I would be mad if I were you, too! I sent it to them, asked for explanation. I’m waiting for an explanation; why all this happened. Because I just received it now, your complaint, just now. Maybe half an hour ago, or maybe you put it there long ago. I don’t know. When did you give it to my attendant? (Last night.) Last night? Oh! I didn’t see it there last night. (First thing this morning, actually, because there’s another piece to it. First thing this morning.) First thing this morning. Maybe they… I was still here or in samadhi, they kept it. They just gave it to me now.
So I sent it to [Supreme Master] TV. Happy? I would be mad, too. They make so many mistakes, apart from the mistakes they make in my lecture and everything else. Oh, it’s so much work, and I guess they’re also tired and make trouble. I don’t know what. Sometimes the ego, sometimes tired. Sometimes they’re misinformed because they’re Americans. No, Americans. They’re not Europeans. Any of you Europeans go... Maybe you should go there! Supervise for me! Check out what they do: “What is that? You call that Zagreb? It’s not true!” Maybe you go there and check it out for me.
Can you go? (We offered four times.) To go there? (From September until December.) To offer to go? (Asked the contact person…) (Yes, yes.) You two? (Not I. Only him.) You and him or only him? (No. Only him.) Maybe they’re afraid of you. If you smile more often… Maybe it’s not what you said; it’s your attitude. You go there and check out for me. All the information on Europe, you watch it to see if the city is correct. Because sometimes they get it from the internet, and the internet sometimes is wrong.
They (the media) gave all kinds of wrong information about me on the internet before. I don’t know if it’s still there. All really bad things! Like, they say I have an American daughter. I didn’t even know I have one! Can you imagine a mother who doesn’t know she has an American daughter? Not just an English daughter, or Aulacese (Vietnamese) daughter, an American daughter! And who has died, even! And I don’t even know about that! Can you imagine? Or, I sell my pair of socks for $800! Kidding me! Internet. It helps, but sometimes it’s horrible. All kinds of nonsense. I hope whenever you see that, you erase it for me. Otherwise, it’s misleading people – bad karma!
So, I heard today only 200 people stay, right? All of you here are staying? Nobody else? (On the ground floor.) Still there? (Yes, the Aulacese [Vietnamese] and the Chinese.) But you told me only 200 stay today. (Yes, some of them will leave today.) Oh, will leave later on. (Yes.) So, staying tonight will be 200, right? (Yes.) And then staying tomorrow will be 150. And after tomorrow, 100, right? And what’s that? A lot of initiates came by car and said they will stay as long as possible? What is that last sentence here? I thought only 100 left, and then, “came by car, and stay as long as possible.” Who’s going to feed you? You stay as long as you want, of course. No problem.
If you have no problem with the job or family, you stay. I go! It’s your home; you stay if you want, but as long as you can take care of yourself. And don’t fight with each other, don’t be each other’s boss, don’t come here and establish here, stay long, and then become like a supervisor here. That happens all the time. In Âu Lạc (Vietnam) we call it, “The old ghost harasses the new ghost.” They’re all ghosts, but they harass each other. “Ghost” in Âu Lạc (Vietnam) means you are really already finished, you’re done, you are nobody. And still harass the new ghost! “The old ghost harasses the new ghost.” Terrible!
Some have extended their stay, so it is difficult to say how many are still left. Extend your stay? Cancel your ticket? Came by car and stay as long as possible? What’s all this? And then you stay six people over there, for what business you are staying here? You say you are happy together, six people! Only the people who are not happy, who are lonely, who have nothing to do, no food wagon, then they can stay. You have a job, you have colleagues, you even have a husband on top of it all! I don’t know who’s on top really, but on top of it all, you have a husband. So, [for] what business are you staying here? Never mind. Everybody, stay if you want.
I don’t know when I’m leaving yet, so you’re welcome to stay as long as you can see my nose around. [It says,] “They will stay as long as possible!” It doesn’t say, “If they can stay or not.” It says, “They will stay as long as possible!” Who’s the boss in the house here? Just says, that’s it! “I will stay as long as possible!” It doesn’t mean my possibility! They say as long as their possibility. Like, as long as they have money, as long as their job’s OK, they will just stay. Don’t care whether I like it or not. You see? See? Why apply? Why bother to apply? They will stay anyway, as long as they want. Oh, this is just too funny!
OK now, I have to go… Oh, the eleven idealists, come over here. I want to “squeeze” you. Everybody, squeeze them for me. Sit there. There! Mop the floor. Go sit down. Sit. Sit. Sit. Never mind. The camera, camera. That’s the problem. Sit a little bit further there. Wherever’s empty. Now tell me, who wants to be the first “victim”? Raise hand. Ask something. Who wants to be first? Show me. Look at you. You! The fearless! Tell me why you want to come stay with me? You have to be honest and sincere in front of all the saints here, the witnesses.
(I saw You when I was six months old.) Six months old? Oh, that’s the reason you want to come now? At six months old, you could not even have intelligence to decide. Six months old, how do you know? (I was six months old, and my grandmother came to see me for the first time, and I became just fully aware. And I can remember completely the next half hour. And when she picked me up and held me to her heart, I saw what I saw when You touched me here. And that’s how I remembered it again.) Wow! (So, and also I always had a feeling I had a strong connection inside, in my heart, with [Lord] Jesus. And also now, where I am in my life, I find that’s the only way forward, the only way where I can be of use in this life.) But you can stay home and translate. That’s also useful, no? (Yes, I could.) She could? (Yes.)
So, why come? You’d better give a good, real good reason! (A real, better reason.) Better give a hundred good reasons. You are the eleven candidates, and your life depends on your talk. And your talk depends on your heart. OK, fine. You have a strong connection. (Yes!) Very, very strong. (Yes!) OK. With (Lord) Jesus! (And You.) And me? First with (Lord) Jesus, and now you include me. Alright, never mind. Are you sure you want to go? (Yes. Because there’s so much work to be done. That’s what it’s all about. We look in the same direction, and I think that I’m helpful. If I wouldn’t be…)
Who are you? German, French, or what? (I’m half French, half German, but I’m the Scottish contact person.) You speak what? You’re the contact person. (For Scotland.) Now if you go, who’s going to be the contact person in Scotland? Is there anybody there? (No.) No. (There are only five people at the moment.) So what to do? (Surrey Center does it. They always do everything anyway.) So, what is there for you to do as a contact person? Five people. (Just look after Scotland as much as I can. Sometimes we are more. We used to be a lot more, but then they either married and moved away, or they are often students from abroad. They are mostly foreigners.) Oh, I see. You just step aside.
Next “victim.” Willing “victim.” Tell me why you want to go, just tell me, and then we will see. Anybody wants to question this woman? For me? (No.) Anybody wants to debate? You know, like in politics, if you apply to be somebody, and everybody “quizzes” you around. So, this is eleven, right? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven. No, you. You can come over here then. I mean, come over here. OK, never mind. Sit there. It’s fine. Tell me! And all of you speak good English? (Yes.) Good enough? (Yes.)
Scottish. You, where from? (I’m from London, UK.) Do you have a United Kingdom (Yes, resident.) passport? Resident only? (No, I have got the passport, the British.)
You have a German passport? So, you’re not a real Scottish? So, you speak better German or French? (I speak better English, actually. I notice now that I’m doing the German translation, initially, it was very difficult. My German was actually not very good anymore, so I relearned it now.) (She speaks good German.) She speaks good German? (Yes.) Hopefully. (Yes. Now. I couldn’t before.) OK.
So you were born in the UK? (No. Born in Brazil, South America, and live in UK in the last…) Ten years, something? (No. Fifteen.) Fifteen. OK. Fine. You speak… (Portuguese.) Portuguese, OK. So, you speak Portuguese as good as English? Or which one’s better? (Both ways. Because I’ve lived so long in England now.) So long in the… or there also. How old are you? What is your sign in Chinese, a Rat or a Cat? (A Dragon.) (Water Dragon!) Water Dragon! Dragon! Two Dragons! Oh, too much water! And you? Goat? (Goat.) Goat, OK. Dragon! (Dragon.) OK. Portuguese, English. (Yes.) Cool! And you? OK, OK, wait, never mind. She has not finished.
Anybody wants to quiz her? Ask her why, and [her] sincerity and what? (What does she have to offer?) What does she have to offer? Yeah! What do you have to offer? She wants to know. (OK.) You have the right to ask! (Yes!) Come! (Sure!) Answer! There you are. (I can offer my sincerity and all the best I can do.) What else? (And service. I can work, that’s not a problem.) Work where? In my house, there’s no job actually. You know, right now I have a few people to help me. That’s all I need really, actually. So, if you come, it’s just because I like to have some more people hang around, or stay around and meditate.
Or if you want to translate, and you work too hard outside, you don’t have time, then you stay in my house, and then you translate, something like that. But it’s not really that I need it, because you could also translate anywhere or translate here. You know what I mean? (Yes.) So, it’s just that I’m just testing to see if you guys can stay around or... I like all of you to stay around! It’s just I cannot take all, that’s all. Also, some of you applied, and some of you cannot stay because of some other problem, or past karma, something like that. So, I take whatever I can. Symbolic.
They represent you, so you’d better quiz them well, because they might spoil your apple. You tell her. (OK.) What do you have to offer? (Well, I have a lot of work to offer, my sincerity, my love, my honesty. The best I can do in terms of… Because I have no illusions about the ego and karma so I…) About what love? (Ego and karma.) You don’t have any illusion about that? You mean you don’t have any? (No. I have. I have ego and karma, so I don’t have any… I’m trying to go with my feet on the ground.) You mean you’re warned enough. (Yes. That I’m not being idealistic. That I don’t want to say wonderful words and not do any of it. So I’m trying to be with my feet on the ground as much as possible, but also, Master, I trust You. I know, You know what is best.) How old are you? (Forty-two.) All these old women come to this old woman. What are we going to do?
