Somebody can really lick the (vegan) mayonnaise. (What? For me?) He already asked, so (Yes.) I give it to him. Oh, I’m sorry. Here. Here you are. Share the stuff. (Here’s some bread.) (Worst to first.) Share. (Thank You, Master.) (Just tear it.) After you eat, you can close now. (Thank You, Master.) You can put garbage in here. (OK.) (Thank You, Master.) You can put garbage in here. (Thank You, Master. Any garbage?) Do you need some bread? (Thank You, Master.) (You don’t eat anything, Master?) No, no, no. It’s all for you today. Just for you. (Is there any more [garbage]?) Togo? (Yes.) I have one more (vegan) ice cream for you. (Thank You, Master.) The garbage is in here. Anyone who wants to lick the cap of the… ([Vegan] mayonnaise.) (Hold out your hand.)
I have only filtered water. (OK.) Oh, the bread has to go somewhere. (I put the bread over there.) Yes, love. No, this one, this one, (Sure.) this one up. So I can wash my hands, and get water for everyone. Over here it is more convenient than in the mountains. We have even this kind of filter. (Yes, I don’t have this in my life.) After living in the mountain, here is like paradise – a lot of food, machine, filter, big refrigerator. (Golden Age.) Yeah. Yeah? Good? (Mmm.)
There… Do you have enough there? How many people there? (We have two bags.) Oh, you still have. OK. Good. There are some more here. (It’s very, very good.) Some more here. (Wow, Master.) (It looks like we could.) Share. (Thank You, Master.) Share, share. (If Master says share; we share.) Huh? (I said if Master says share; we share.) Share, yeah. (If Master says eat; we eat.) Eat. Very obedient children. (If Master says we eat more; we eat more. It’s the kid in us.) I wish you’d do everything else I say. No, this is just something, and then we do something else.
Good Love, you’re OK there, boy? He’s so scared of the gun sound or the thing that he comes and sleeps on my bed. Look at that. (Can I see?) Sure, sure. (Thank You, Master. Oh, my goodness. Where do you sleep?) I sleep there. Normally I spread out and I sleep there. But he… he’s OK. You’re good. Don’t worry. (But the dog[-person] is in Your bed?) Yeah. No, normally he’s here. Today he’s just afraid of the gun sound, so he ran there. (Ah.) He runs often there. And I have to clean my house. (He’s so beautiful.) He is beautiful. Great Saint. (I have a…) Oh yeah? (...she meditates with me.) Ooh. Very lovely. Lovely race. (She is. And she… And meditates with me.) Oh, yeah? Oh, wonderful. She’s going to be a Buddha soon. (Yes. I think so.)
Alright? Everybody ate good? (Yes, thank You, Master.) If you want to drink water, then just this water. That’s what I drink. (OK.) (OK, Master.) You want some? (Oh, yes, please.) OK. Oh, I asked her… What day is today? Never mind. (Saturday.) Yeah. (Today is Saturday.) Normally I have more, I have more (vegan) cakes and candies, but I gave them away to some other disciples who’re from China and difficult places. So you only have a little bit. It’s enough, right? (Yes.) Just symbolic. Symbolic. (It’s all very good. Very tasty, Master.) (Thank You very much.) Good? (This is Heaven.) Yeah. Good. (You have a great affinity with food.) (Oh, yes.) Very good affinity with food and drink. (I noticed.) But here I don’t even have a lot of juice for everybody. Just drink water if you want. (Yes, water is fine.) (Water is perfect.) (Water is great.)
There [you] go. I’m making water now. Can you stand somewhere there? So I can go in, please. Sorry about that. (Sorry.) (It’s OK.) Sorry, my palace is “big, big.” So this is what we do. It takes a long time. But we will get there. We will get there. Water. (More glasses, Master?) Yeah. (Water.) (Water, water.) Water. (Water, water.) Give, give, give. Give, give. (Yes.) I put it here. (Yes.) (Did You have water in the mountains, Master?) What, love? (Did You have the water in the mountains?) Yeah, some rainwater, limited. (Rainwater.) Rain – we catch rainwater from the roof into the tank, and also buy some water. There it comes. (Do You want me to pass this one, Master?) Yeah. (One more?) Here is your water. (Thank You.) (How many more?) (One more?) Only one more? (Two.) Two more. Coming, coming, coming.
Is it good water? (Very good.) Ah, so-so, I drink it daily. Make it simple, (Yes.) and I don’t boil it. (Oh, about four more, OK?) Doesn’t matter. We have a lot. Water, we have a lot. (It’s OK.) There. (Enough, enough.) Enough? OK. (It’s enough.) Now, you drink, finish, and you can go and give them this. (Yes, is that OK?) You finish first, (Alright. OK.) finish your drinking. Oh, come on. (OK. Done.) Yes. Next door. (Here you go, take it.) There, love. (Thank You.) Wow. You are very fast. Too fast for me, lady. (No, no. I don’t think so.) (Thank you.) (She’s from Ohio.) Ohio? No wonder. Oh-hoh-hoh. (Oh-hoh-hoh.) (Any more?) (No.)
How many more? Done? (Any more?) (I got three for you, over here.) (OK. Three.) Yeah? (One, two, three.) Three more? (That’s it. One, two, three. Thank You, Master.) There you go. Yeah. OK. OK. Good. (No more.) (Thank You, Master.) You’re welcome. Here, here. Here, water. (Everyone’s got it.) (Yeah, thanks.) (The cameraman?) (Thank you.) (Yes, got it.) (You’re like a little whirlwind.) Yeah, yeah. I know. I know, I know. I know my worth. OK. That’s it. (Thank You, Master.)
When you’re done, you may go. (OK.) (Thank You, Master.) (Thank You.) Take the bread with you. (Thank You, Master.) Welcome. Welcome. Thanks for blessing my “palace.” (Thanks for blessing us with Your house.) Everything good? (Yes, they have.) (Very good, Master. Thank You.) (Delicious.) Very little food. So sorry. (No!) (It’s fantastic. Master. Thank You.) Any more drinks [for those] that don’t have? Cameramen, camerawomen, have, have, have. (We have. Thank You, Master.) You can eat more bread if you want. (I always want some more bread.) Just bread. Oh, you have the whole jar. You want some more bread, you said? (Yes, please.) OK.
(Master, is Happy here as well?) What, love? (Is Happy here as well?) Happy? (Yes.) The dog(-person)? (Yes.) The three of them are in the main house. (Oh, in the main house. OK.) (It’s not safe?) No. The three elders are in the main house. Because they might fight. So… (Thank You, Master.) Hungry? Nobody feeds you at home? (Not this kind of [vegan] food.) OK then. I hope you feel a little happier. (Yes.) (Oh, yes.) (Very happy, not a little happy.) (Absolutely.) Very little food, so little food. (The best part is seeing You, Master.) OK. I understand. Just one second. I had a lot before. I was just giving, giving away. Everybody seems to like it, so I cannot stop. (Yes.) (Thank You, Master.)
OK, go now, good children. Go sleep, meditate. It’s late, it’s late. You guys stay there. (Thank You, Master. Thank You so much. Thank You.) Welcome. (Thank You.) Somebody behind there? (Thank You, Master.) Open the door to let them come out. (Yes.) Come. (Thank You, Master.) You’re welcome. Take your cups, your garbage. Take your bread, please. (Thank You, Master. Thank You.) One bag. Somebody else help her. You can carry? (Yes, I can carry it.) (Thank You, Master.) (Thank You.) Take the bread. OK? (Thank You, Master.)
(I leave tomorrow. Thank You for all the Love.) Oh, really? That’s good. Good that we see each other tonight. (Yes.) Have a safe trip. (Thank You very much.) Take care of each other. (Thank You, Master.) I know you do. (Thank You for Your Love, Master.) Welcome. (Thank You, Master.) (Thank You, Master. Thank You for everything. Thank You.) You’re welcome. Already? (I’m so happy. Yes, Master, already.) Oh, Togo, don’t do that. You’ll get hurt. You’re already operated on. No need, no need. I know you have great esteem for me, I know that. You look like (Nelson) Mandela, you know that? (Yes.) (My friend.) (Thank you very much. Thank you very much.) (Thank you.) (Take care.) (Thank you everybody.) (Thank You.) You want to help him? (Sorry, Master. Yes.) OK, go ahead. You want to help them? Your what something? Your bag. OK.
