00:00A youngster knows that a rascal has a billion dollars, what are you now pushing that youngster
00:06to become?
00:07Another rascal.
00:08No?
00:09So money is not just a private matter and remember money can move a lot.
00:12If money is in the wrong hands, you know the kind of things it will move and in the direction
00:16it will move.
00:17Therefore, the very concept of private property has to be re-examined in the light of consciousness,
00:24in the light of the basic human requirement because money is a great power in the material
00:30sense.
00:31Who should have that power?
00:32A dimwit who does not know whether he is speaking from his brain or his hormones, his intellect,
00:38his consciousness or just his instincts, animal instincts?
00:41Should this kind of a person be allowed to have tremendous money?
00:44Remember, it's not his personal matter.
00:46We need to reiterate that.
00:47It's not his personal matter.
00:48It affects all of us.
00:49And with that money, he will definitely do things that push all of us deeper into darkness
00:55and ignorance.
00:56Why should he be allowed to have that much money?
00:57Only truth should have power.
