I asked Heaven, “How much love quality does he have?” They said, “Minus 40 something.” (Oh, wow.) Minus! (Minus. Oh, my goodness.) Not even zero. (Wow.) less than zero. Let me remember. Minus 42%. (Wow.) So, even if he’s not a devil himself, he is very easy to be worked on by the devils.
Alright. More? (Yes. There is more. Francis now promises to bring justice to abused children; the victims of sexual abuse by the clergy. So, he spoke to an audience- the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, last Friday.) A few days ago. (A few days ago, yes. Today’s Tuesday.) Today’s Tuesday the 25th. (Of January. Yes.) 25th. Oh yeah, it’s already past midnight. I was going to argue with you and say, “No, it’s the 24th.” Thank you.
And? (So, that was just a day after an independent audit had faulted the previous Pope Benedict XVI of his handling of four cases of sexual abuse of minors by the clergy, when he was archbishop of Munich, Germany.)
“Media Report from CBS News – Jan. 21, 2022CBS Reporter (f): A new report accuses Pope Emeritus Benedict the XVI of poorly handling sexual abuse cases in a German diocese. The report claims, when Benedict was Archbishop in Munich, he knowingly allowed abusive priests to continue working for the church without sanctions. Pope Benedict denies the accusations.”
(What are Master’s thoughts on this? Could this be another one of Francis’ distractions or is he turning good?) You hope. (Yes.) Is that it? (Yes, Master.) Oh, I’m telling you, I don’t trust this guy. I told you many times already. (Yes.) He just did, and does something trendy to make it look good. (Yes.) Just like before he became pope, people already groomed him. Already prepared. (Yes, Master.) Many years before he became pope. So, they even let him wash the feet of the criminals, on video. (Yes.) So they use that, and everybody thinks he’s a humble and good pope. See that? (Yes, Master.) Never mind about that.
Because, he doesn’t seem to be any more humble and more caring in many other dimensions. (Yes, Master.) That’s why many people complained to him about sexual abuse of their children and themselves and he just ignored them all. (Yes, Master.) He didn’t even write anything to them or comfort them or say sorry, or anything. Nothing. (That’s right, Master.) Not even seeing them, not even replying to them, not even comforting them – nothing. (Yes, Master.) Right. So, the sexual abuse stuff has been reported to him long ago already. (Yes, Master. Right.) And he didn’t do anything, as you know. (Yes.) And now “boom” somebody, reported about Pope Benedict, so he immediately said, “Oh, I will do it.” You see that? (Yes, Master. Right.)
Now he has another scapegoat. (Oh.) Last time he kicked out the second most powerful priest from Vatican’s office, because of condemning gay marriage as a sin. And then he wrote a letter to everybody saying, “It’s OK,” and all that stuff. (Yes. Yes, Master.) This guy knows nothing, he cares about nothing. I asked Heaven, “How much love quality does he have?” They said, “Minus 40 something.” (Oh, wow.) Minus! (Minus. Oh, my goodness.) Not even zero. (Wow.) less than zero. Let me remember. Minus 42%. (Wow.) Remember before, I told some of you, “You have too little love. (Yes.) Like 20- something percent or 30%.” I said, “Too little already.” (Yes.) (Oh, minus. Wow.) Minus. So, even if he’s not a devil himself, he is very easy to be worked on by the devils. You understand me? (Yes, Master.) Because they will be greedy, they will be liars, they will be immoral. Anything, just to gain fame. and profit. (Yes, Master.) And under him, they’re using 90% of donations originally for the poor, just for the Vatican. (Wow.) (Yes, Master.)
So, you don’t blame me now if I don’t give you a palace to live in. Not one company car each or anything. You want all that? (No. No, thank You, Master.) I know some left us because we don’t have too good of facilities. I apologize for that. But I am not sorry. Because I don’t want you guys to be so used to luxury. (Right. Yes, Master.) In case, one day, we don’t have anything. (Yes.) Who knows? (Yes, that’s right, Master.)
See, just like suddenly the pandemic closed everything. Closed the world, the world is becoming like an imprisonment facility. (Yes, Master.) Many people cannot work, cannot do business. Many things are closed. You know that. (Yes.) So, the more we train ourselves in the minimum, the better. (Right. Yes, Master.) And should we someday have a palace given to us then, why not? (Right. Yes, Master.) But it’s better than going from the palace to being homeless. (That’s true. Oh, yes.) You cannot survive. (Yes, right.) This world is a harsh world. (Yes, Master.)
So, it’s good that we are happy with what we have. (Yes, Master.) We have birthday celebrations, Christmas and New Year, all that. If we have, it’s good, if we don’t have, it’s OK. (Yes, Master.) You prepare for everything. (Yes, Master.)
And we’re only yearning to help the world to get better. (That’s right, Master. Yes, Master.) To rescue those suffering – animal-people and humans. That’s all we should aim for. Anything else is just secondary. (Yes, Master.) As long as you have food, you have a roof, and you have peace. That’s all you need. (Yes, Master. We have all that. Thank You.)
And you can meditate to cover your karma and to help the world, and to elevate your spiritual status. You are luckiest people in the world already, (Yes, Master.) according to my humble opinion. You agree or not? (Yes, Master. We agree, Master. Definitely.) If you don’t, then please, please go, please go. We need to work together as a team. (Right. Yes, Master.) The same ideal. (Yes, Master.) Looking in the same direction, that’s real love. (Yes, Master.)
Those people who don’t have the same ideal, they already left. You know that. (Yes, Master.) Whatever excuse they make. Like, they’ll make a business in America, where they will make one million dollars per year, or something like that. (Oh.) So, they have to go. One of them. You know it. Oh, maybe you don’t know because they just wrote to me. And one goes back to school. What kind of school at his age, 40-something already. Probably, study women’s anatomy. (Study really well.) Probably, yes, yes. And the other one says, “Oh, not well here.” Of course not. If you’re not well, you’re not well anywhere. (Right. That’s true, Master.)
That’s why, when the Buddha was alive, when anybody became a monk, they just shaved their head just to symbolically cut off the past. (Yes, Master.) And have only two or three pairs of clothes. (Yes.) And don’t stay anywhere more than three days, if it’s a wandering monk. So, not attached. (Yes, Master.) But later on, of course, they made an ashram for Him, and then He stayed there so that people can come and see the Buddha. Of course, because He’s a teacher. (Yes.) But if you are a normal monk, a wandering monk, you don’t have to stay anywhere. (Yes, Master.) Everywhere is three days only. That’s what the Master of Milarepa taught Him. And it’s similar in the Indian tradition, it’s still like that. Like they have some ashram, like some resting house somewhere on the pilgrim route. But they don’t let you stay more than 3 days.
So, actually I didn’t know I trained myself very well when I was all this time in the Himalayas and elsewhere, etc. But it serves me well because I really like it. I like this kind of simple life. (Yes, Master.) It’s so wonderful. You have no idea, but don’t you dare go and try anything. You stay here, do your work. Stay where you are. Stay put. (Yes, Master.) The world needs you. I also scold myself like that. If I ever want to go back to that kind of lifestyle in the Himalayas again, I scold myself also – I say, “No! You stay put. You work for others. Don’t care what you like or not like. Stop it!”
(Thank You, Master. We need You.) Oh, that I stay? (Yes. The world needs You very much.) I don’t know about that. Because I don’t have this direct experience of whether or not people really like it. It has to translate into like veganism or spirituality, otherwise, it’s just talk. (Yes. That’s true, Master.)
Many disciples also, when I talk they just listen and say, “Bravo Master, well said, well done.” But they forget to practice. (Oh. Yes, Master.) Like, I just reprimanded them the other day because the food they produce, they just write in Chinese, the labels and the ingredients. Nothing in English. (Oh.) Some. (Yes.) So, I said, “Many people are allergic to something, they have to know what the ingredients are, number one. (Right.) Number two, we are selling all over the world, so then we have to have it in English, at least. (Yes, Master. Right.)
English is easier for people to translate and to understand. Most people, if they learn a language, they learn English first. (Right. Yes, Master.) I mean more than any other language, because it’s easy. (Yes.) It’s international. (Yes, Master.) Every language is beautiful. I love many other languages, but still, there is something practical about the English language. It’s easier. (Yes, Master.)
