“In India, they’re very devoted to their guru. They always sing this kind of similar song like, ‘You are better than God. When I pray, God doesn’t care about me, but you come and lift me out of misery.’ Something like that. And there’s something they sing very offensive, like, ‘If God and guru would stand before me, whom would I choose? The guru.’ Oh, God. No wonder the Buddha said there’s no God. What’s the use of telling the Indians there is a God when they don’t care? ‘You’re better than God. Your guru is better than God.’ They sing this kind of song, and they really mean it. The Indian people, when they found a true guru, they really devote themselves. They do all kinds of things, offering at home and offering in front of the guru, they do pranam, means prostration. And they also offer all kinds of things, offer their houses, their money, their possessions, anything. Lucky, I don’t take anything, otherwise you’d have nothing left. Because they all declare, the Indians declare that, ‘Everything that is mine is not mine. It’s the guru’s property.’ And also, they never dare to sit at the same height as the guru. Indian people, they never criticize their guru, never ever. They would die for the guru. They’d do anything, anything. It’s more traditional there. The Indian people, they’re more spiritually cultivated.” “Don’t ever wish that because if it comes true, you cannot bear. For me, it’s little already, but if to you… What I mean is, if you take it, you will die. And you’ll die many lifetimes and in agony, so don’t ever wish like that. (I wish You well then, Master, I wish You well.) Thank you. That’s good. You can pray together like, ‘If it’s possible,’ but don’t say to wish it on yourself. Because it might happen and I don’t want that. It is terrible. It’s not just coughing like this. It’s just a little bit to come out. But this is because for me, it’s minimized. But if it’s you, wow, I don’t dare. I don’t dare to wish you have it because the bad karma (retribution), it will be multiple. It’s not just coughing. For me, it’s already minimized. Very minimized already. If suppose it’s not me who bears all this (bad) karma, it is you or any of you, cannot imagine. You’d go to hell. Many lifetimes. The (bad) karma is too big. Don’t ever wish it on yourself. You can say, ‘Wish You well.’ Everybody blesses a little bit, also helps. Thanks a lot. And it’s good for you to be so compassionate. But don’t ever wish anything that I have on yourself. Don’t ever. Because if the Lord of Karma hears that, he’ll punish you. Don’t wish.”
