The Fatal Obstacle, Part 3 of 3, Mar. 2, 2005

“Now we have 23 Buddhas left, for the time being. How rare it is! In the whole world, and only in our group. And I told you, appearance really deceives. You wouldn’t guess that the lay persons I pointed out are Buddhas, no? They couldn’t even guess it themselves, which is good，because the ego and the bad habits are our enemies. And if he even knows about it, oh, it would be “inflated.” It’d be much, much trouble.” “Oh, it seems just like a number, like one level, two levels, three levels, but, oh dear God, if you don’t have a Master, and if you’re really sincere and work all your might and energy, day and night for many hundreds of lifetimes, maybe you advance one level. One low level! The higher levels, it’s more difficult. It’s more vast and more difficult. It’s not a number. It’s a vastness, it’s a big universe!” “So many prophecies were supposed to be true, but I changed it. The world was supposed to be kaput in 2000, I changed it. I promised you it’d still be here. Because I’m here to change. I am here to change.”
