diarr��                                                         and global warming and various other aspects, but we are not addressing soil. Soil is the habitat upon which zillions of lives thrive. Once there is no richness in soil, then you have forsaken the planet in many ways. Every responsible scientist in the world and the UN agencies are clearly saying we have only 80 to 100 harvests left. That means approximately 45 to 50 years of agricultural soil left on the planet. By 2045 we will be producing 40% less food than what we are producing right now and our populations will be 9.3 billion people. The food shortages that could manifest in the next 25 years. The consequences of that is unimaginable. Civil wars will unfold across the world once there is food shortage. What we are facing now is soil extinction. Why is soil becoming extinct? Where is it going away? What is happening to our soil? We must understand if you add organic content to sand, sand will turn into soil. If you remove all organic content from the soil, soil will become sand. In normal agricultural soil the minimum organic content should be between 3 to 6%. The most minimum is 3%. At least this minimum to keep the soil alive, to keep the soil as living soil is a must agricultural soils across the world. The depletion is so heavy in most countries more than 50% of the top soil is already gone in the last hundred years. The nutrient levels have dropped significantly. The level of micronutrients you would get from your food in early 20th century to what you are getting from the same food now has dropped 90%. If you ate one orange in 1920s what you got from it. Now in 2020 if you have to get the same you will have to eat eight oranges. This is what we have done to our food. Soil is the biggest ecosystem on the planet and so few people know anything about it. One teaspoon of healthy soil probably contains more microbes than there are people on earth. The microbial life in the first 12 to 15 inches of top soil is the basis of our existence. It is this magic beneath our feet which has produced the life that we are. This first 12 to 15 inches of soil is the basis of life for 87% of life on this planet including you and me. We have to begin to recognize that what we call our soil on the earth is a living organism. Open soils ripped open by ploughing open to sunlight is the basis of destruction of microbial life. So the focus should be in agriculture. The focus should be on seeing that land is under shade as much as possible. Some kind of shade grasses, herbs, bushes, trees so it's extremely important that soil regeneration is enshrined in the policy of every government on the planet. We must change the narrative on the planet that soil is a wealth, a legacy we have received from previous generations and we have to pass it on as living soil for future generations. We are in a cusp of time if you do the right things now in the next 15 to 25 years we can significantly turn this situation around and regenerate the soil. But if we allow this to progress like this for another 30 to 40 years after 40 years if we attempt this then it could take 150 to 200 years because that much loss of biodiversity would have happened. From 21st of March for 100 days the whole world, every human being on the planet should talk soil. We must hear the word soil, save soil everywhere to see that the narrative on the planet changes towards the most vital aspect of our life, the soil. Each one of you should reach as many people as you can to make this happen as a part of this to activate support from the citizenry to assure the governments that long-term investments will be appreciated. I am 65 and I am riding 30,000 km a lone motorcycle journey 30,000 km across 24 nations. Satguru, thank you for what you are doing. Dear Satguru, one of the world's voices and leaders in soil conservation and I would like to say that we are very grateful to all of you. We are extremely ready to help you. You've inspired me to think about soil very differently. I love what you say that we're all part of the solution and we all have a role to play. This is my appeal to every one of you because I don't want this COP 15 to end as one more convention with more paper and more paper, this must end with concrete action and action in such a way that it's implementable. It is implementable and we will see a distinct change in the coming few years. A perfect confluence of how we see things and the importance of the soil. Save the soil. Our soil needs nourishment.

Five hundred and sixty-two events means on an average eight to nine events per day is what's been happening along the way apart from the riding. So continuously almost in every nation this is a question, how do you manage this? I must tell you I was riding towards Bucharest and I was to reach there at seven o'clock and seven o'clock there was a television interview. But weather got very bad and the roads, road can't, what is that, can't hear? What? You are blocking the view, I... You can see there, that's okay please, now they can't change that please. You look at the screen, you always seen Samanta only on the screen, so what is it now? It's not me they are here for, it's not me they are here for. So I was to go there at seven o'clock in the evening but the ride became nine-and-a-half hours instead of six hours as it was planned. So I reached there around eleven-fifteen and they were still waiting, the television crew. So I walked straight into the event and well an hour-and-a-half when we finished it was nearly one-a-clock in the morning and then I was talking to them. So this anchor said, at this age how do you ride for nine hours and come and do an interview and you still find? He repeated the word this age three times and I didn't like it.  You need lot of time to get old, where is the time to get old? Can you please give me the secret as well? I will. I would like to stay this way for some time. We will reveal the secret. So I see your amazing bike and some would say a bike to an unusual way to create awareness. Why a bike to a cycle? Why a motorcycle? Well see the thing is last two-and-a-half years particularly I have been talking to various agricultural ministries, scientists, top scientists in the world, soil scientists I mean and bureaucrats and variety of people who hold responsible positions in the world and I discovered that everybody knows the problem. Everybody generally knows the direction of the solution. Then wondering why is it not happening, everybody knows the problem, everybody knows the solution.  So if I fly around and do it, it won't have that. So I have to walk. If I walk I may die, most probably yes or in my cycle definitely it will kill me. So motorcycle could kill, there were many dangerous moments, it could when you are going at this pace, when I said this pace like every day you know we are well about the speed limits and trying to get to the place because events and events are happening on the way, they are stopping us on the roads and there are events. So I don't hold, I am not a minister, I am not, I don't hold any position of power in the world. I don't have any you know anything to command because I don't have an army. All I have is I have people's love and goodwill so I thought so that is the only asset I have so that is the only thing I can play with. I have been talking about this for thirty years and whenever I speak about it people say this is great, this is fantastic and then they will sleep on it. So now we wanted to awaken something, I knew the simple way for me to do it is to put myself to some risk and it's worked because three days ago our social media metrics without, without WhatsApp is reading at 2.8 billion people have spoken about soil but when I started, when I started in London a lady journalist was interviewing me and she said, ëSadhguru come on, why have you become like this? Canít you pick up something else? Soil is the most unromantic thing, who will support you? Who is going to talk about soil? Donít do this, do something else. Talk about the sky, maybe heaven. Not soil, who is going to be interested in this? Look at this. There is this constant question about river water being wasted to the ocean, Sadhguru. So is there a way that we can save it? See the river water must go to the ocean. On the way you can drink, you can irrigate your lands a little bit, you can use it but river water must go to the ocean. This is a very wrong concept which lot of states are unfortunately taking. If the river water does not go, enough river water, I would say in ideal conditions minimum 50% should go. But with our population pressure where we have 4% of the worldís land and 17.6% of population, worldís population, this pressure you cannot expect 50% to flow, at least 25% of the river water must flow into the ocean. Why? India has 7600 km2 of coastline. So along this coastline there is an ecosystem which is semi-marine kind of ecosystem. Itís a completely different ecosystem than the marine ecosystem and also different from the river water itself. Itís a meeting of these two, meeting and mingling of these two different types of waters. If this buffer goes away, then marine ingress will happen. Marine water will start percolating into the soil and coming in. You know from Tamil Nadu, 80 km inside marine water has come right now in Chutikore region. Just 15 years ago it was all sweet water. Today all the wells are salt water. People have vacated the whole villages. You will see ghost villages, completely empty villages, all locked homes and they have left because there is no sweet water anywhere. Up to 100 km it can come. If all the rivers, if you use it up inside for human whatever you want to call it, human reproduction I would say. If you use it up like this, then up to 100 km marine ingress can happen. 7600 km coastline, 100 km means you would have lost one third of the nation. This is about the same size of land that you partitioned with Pakistan and Bangladesh at one time in 1948. Thatís how much land you will lose once again if rivers donít flow into the ocean. Sathru, since I have this time with you, Iím going to be greedy and ask a few questions that have been on my mind for a while. Personally, I love to visit places of worship. I believe in a higher power, in good energy, in karma. But there is a counter viewpoint that religion divides us. What is the purpose of religion in our lives today and how would you answer an atheist who says that the world would be a better place without the divisive policies of religion? I very much agree with that because of the way we are propagating it today. See, most religions that you know today in its infancy started as spiritual processes as a quest for human being to know something beyond just eating, reproducing, sleeping, beyond that because itís a longing. Itís not taught to you. There is a natural longing within you. See, if you are struggling for food, food will be the only thing. If you are struggling to have a shelter, that will be the only thing. Suppose everything you want is just provided today, then suddenly you wonder, ëWhy am I here?í What is it? So there is a longing to know. A human being cannot simply say, ëI donít want to know anything, I will just eat well and live well.í It doesnít work because your intelligence is evolved into a certain place where without asking a question you cannot exist. So when I say without asking a question, question means a quest. Question is just a tool to dig deeper into something, whatever you wish to know. But right now all religions started with this question, but today most religions have come to this place. You cannot ask a question, if you ask a question you are dead. So with what purpose it started and what it has become today is a different thing. So we need to make a distinction between religious process and spiritual process. It has become necessary today to do this because today religion means belief. You believe this, this and this, then you belong to this religion. If you believe that, that, that, you become that religion. So when you say I believe something, itís like this. How many of you here believe you have two hands, all of you just raise one hand? If you have, if you believe you have two hands. Do you believe you have two hands or you know that you have two hands? You know. If somebody starts an argument with you to prove that you have no hands, if their argument becomes too overwhelming, one slap in the face. He knows you got hands. This happens in the movies. But in God you believe, why? Because you are still not even straight enough to admit what you do not know as I do not know. This much sincerity should enter human heart and intelligence. What I know, I know. What I do not know, I do not know. What is the problem? Whatever I do not know, I believe. You are destroying I do not know. I do not know is the most tremendous possibility in your life. When you see I do not know, the longing to know, the seeking to know and the possibility of knowing becomes a reality.  Because itís come from some authority or people claim itís come from an authority. Or in other words in your life authority becomes the truth. Spiritual process means truth is the only authority for you. Another question that has been on my mind lately is how much of oneís life is a result of their past karma? Are the injustices and unfairnesses that one faces in oneís life a result of their past karma? If so, do you accept these injustices and find solace in the fact that okay, the karma is being cleared even though it might seem detrimental to our lives in so many ways? Samanta, you are old enough for this. Iím not saying you are old. I said you are old enough. Do you still expect the world to be fair to you? Thatís why Iím asking this question. Can I blame it on my past karma is what Iím asking. I want the world to be fair to me is a schoolgirl question. By now you should know the world is not fair. It will not be fair to you.  So do you want fair life or fantastic life? You must decide. I have noticed this that beyond the material ego there is now suddenly a widespread... Who is this ego guy, your friend? He is all around me. And in my industry, the heights of it. So beyond the material ego I have noticed there is now widespread spiritual ego. I have come across a lot of people who are now on a spiritual path. Not you, Sadhguru. Who consider themselves superior to people who are not on a spiritual path. How would you advise such people to ensure that they donít fall prey to this new spiritual ego? First weíll address this ego guy. If you show me where it is, Iíll fix it right now. I wish I knew where it was. It keeps coming suddenly. No, you donít know where it is. The thing is just this, see at certain moments, as a person, as a woman, you are a beautiful person. Wonderful person, I mean. I am sorry, I didnít say only at certain times you are beautiful.  All right? Certain moments may be you are nasty. Possible. Whenever you are nasty, you say itís my ego. Why donít you say itís me? I am sometimes wonderful, sometimes nasty. If you see this, naturally nastiness will go down. But if you say, whenever your nasty mystery ego does this, and you donít know where he is, you donít know his address or ID, nor do you know his phone number. So how do you fix this guy? Everybody has this going in their life. Because this is spiritual jargon without being spiritual, is all over the place, particularly in India.  So we know all the words. We know what atma, paramatma, this one, that one, ankarad, everything we know. Words only. Words only, noted. So we can just throw words like this and confuse the western population quite a bit. Because if you come here, theyíll say mukti, sakti, this one, that one, all kinds of things. Theyíll think. I know a lot of people whoíve gone and set up spiritual centers in the west, particularly in America, because they just know one chant. Just one chant. Okay. With this they run the whole thing. So so unfortunately spirituality in some ways itís come there. Itís come there because there is need in the society. There is not enough source. Because of that people are manufacturing this here and there. I must tell you this. Is it okay if I take a few minutes? This happened, you know, a few years ago, 15Ö 16 years ago and I was in United States and then somebody in the office, our office told me, said, ëGuru, did you know every day 100,000 people are typing out the word spiritual? I said, ëIs that so? Type it out and see what comes out. Are we even there in the picture? They typed out spirituality. First thing that comes out is a spa in Mexico. You been there? And the next thing that comes out is a call girl in Northern California. She has learnt all that SEO for everything she says spiritual, spiritual, spiritual. When she made time, she uses the word spiritual on our website. You say spiritual, she comes up number two. I thought this is a shame. For thousands of years anything spiritual means people looked east. East means India. That's what it meant. So I said we must start something, a spiritual gateway that if people say if they seek spirituality they must look towards India. Because this is one culture which has spent maximum amount of time maximum amount of time exploring human consciousness and the mechanics of what a human being is how this functions on the surface and it's very cool. How does this function what can we do about it. This has been explored. I am not saying this out of my Indian origin I am saying this after looking at the world closely that nowhere else has it been looked at like this. So I said we must start a spiritual gateway India, the spiritual gateway as a part of this I thought till then I must tell you this till about fifteen years ago I had not met a single guru in this country. I just did not meet, I was just busy doing my own work. I never thought I had to go and look for somebody to any other ashram anywhere and then I thought okay let me make an attempt then I started making phone calls they all received my call pretty well and then I started visiting some people and started putting together we had one meeting with 125 gurus we made this thing that nobody talks about their philosophy you keep your philosophy this is just a meeting this is just about how to enhance your ashram or your yoga center whatever you have how to enhance the quality we will teach you management we will teach you branding we will teach you how to make a website we will teach you how to present yourself to international community your philosophy we don't touch you don't touch mine I don't touch yours you do your own thing because that is the beauty of this culture that it can exist in hundreds of forms thousands of forms and it's okay with us this well I met many wonderful people but at the same time at least 60 to 65 percent it hurts me to say this I found that if I walk into an airport or a golf course I meet better men than in the so called spiritual centers because it's full of jargon no heart no depth no profoundness simply one one chant one philosophy that they read somewhere it's going on like this this needs to change so to bring this profoundness to people as people get closer to me I get harder and harder and harder those who are very close to me I am bloody cruel yes because just to bring integrity into spirituality is so hard because the moment they get spirituality little like you said you are calling it spiritual ego spiritual airs they get spiritual airs air bubbles get in their head suddenly they start acting funny they start saying things that don't exist they start talking about nonsense that nobody understands if you speak something whatever nonsense you speak people in front of you must understand otherwise why the hell are you speaking because the purpose of speech is to make somebody understand what you are saying no if I say something that you don't understand I become big you become small this is rubbish this is going on for too long so everybody quotes a book it all looks like we are right now talking about earth bodies we are creating an earth worm image we are trying to create an NFT over 40,000 images we have created we will release it shortly we will gift you one earth worm okay now these are all bookworms you fell out of a book these bookworms were important when people there was low literacy in the societies only one man in the village could read the book suddenly he was very valuable now everybody can read what is the point you are reading a book to me if you have something to say other than the book you tell me if you are going to read a book what is the point when I was in graduation when I was in the university I made an agreement with the teachers and bother you with my questions just give me attendance I will stay out because if you go there from the first moment you go there first attendance that is the only interesting thing and after that they are just reading some notes and everybody is writing down those days fountain pens kara kara kara kara it makes noise I don't like it as I say if everything is in that book give it to us I don't have to come you don't have to come I have I have many interesting things to do in the town I don't know about you but I have many interesting things to do in the town I don't have to sit here and write down I can photocopy this so they didn't want me so I said give me attendance only once a month I went there to check my attendance whether they were keeping the deal I sat in the garden outside why I am saying this is when you are also literate why should somebody read the damn book to you you read if they have something to say which no book can say of course then you must listen so this whole spirituality as a thing unfortunately has fallen on bad times but slowly it is rising because people's longing is increasing I must tell you this 40 years ago when I first started the programs in engineering programs in various different forms 85% of the people used to come to the programs only for health problems only 12-15% came to know something today over 90% of the people come because they want to know something experience something only 8-10% only 8-10% are coming for health issues which is a significant change in human consciousness about this ego business this is one thing we must settle see within you is there only one person or two? you think one I am going to go with one one that means you are an individual an individual means the word individual comes from indivisible you are not further divisible that's good you are an individual if you are two then you either schizophrenic or possessed psychiatrist or exorcist either a psychiatrist or an exorcist has to come so this is very important everybody settle this that don't talk about atma, paramatma, ego this one that one you are an individual what kind are you are you a wonderful one don't give excuses this is me this is my ego you are one if you do that definitely you will eliminate the nastiness to whatever extent possible thank you my last question is there is a criticism that new age spirituality is for the wealthy and privileged how would you advise an underprivileged householder who has neither the money nor the time to embark on a spiritual journey although they are seeking for it why is he holding on to a house you said household over where are they holding on to a house you should live in a house you should not hold on to it right now that's their problem they are holding on to a house their whole life is around what they own what they possess obviously they can't leave the damn place and go anywhere so the moment your possessions decide the quality of who you are then you yourself become a material there's a question there i'm sorry i didn't get the last no i'm saying the moment your possessions decide the quality of who you are then you will also become a material part you will not be a human anymore you will not be a consciousness anymore material is there things are there clothes are there home is there all this is there why because if you do not arrange these convenience every day you will be only struggling for that you won't do anything worthwhile in your life because every day if you have to earn your food can you think of anything higher i'm asking will be just on that the idea of making arrangements for ourselves as it's convenient for us is so that our intelligence our creativity our possibilities find expression in life every day if you have to worry about where is my food today then you can't do anything worthwhile so do not misunderstand possessions as a way of enhancing your life it is a way of making your life convenient so that you can focus on what you want to do if you have to earn your dinner from now to dinner time what can you do what worthwhile things can you do you will only have to go foraging for food isn't it so arrangements are there in everybody's life how much arrangement is needed as much as needed for your kind of life so that arrangements never become an impediments for most people it's an impediment because if somebody is a house older he'll be holding the house and sitting right there that's what most people are doing that is what most people are doing i'm talking about 18, 90 year olds they say i want to come to the ashram sadguru birth what is birth birth is nobody nobody to take care of the house leave the goddamn house and come your 85 years of age you're holding the house so much that you think it's going to go with you there's no container service definitely nobody transports homes so these house holders they must change that thing they must live in the house what kind of house whatever is convenient for them when i say convenience somebody wants to build a house for 10 crores they're capable of making their money and building that house if they can do it effortlessly let them do it where somebody else 10 lakh rupees house itself is a burden there used to be movies maybe before you came at least in canada there are movies about build a house and see get somebody daughter married and see these are the most difficult things to do in life daughter will get married if you just leave her alone she'll get married without any expense and building a house if it is such a burden why the hell are you building a house i was in united states and they were asking me shatguru is it true next time when jesus comes he will come in salt lake city you know salt lake city you don't know oh there is a whole story i won't go into it i said see last time he came around jesus and he came and he said come follow me only 12 guys out of the whole population only 12 guys he got out of that one of them freaked on him anyway but he becomes to united states now in 21st century and says come follow me nobody will be behind him because you got 35 year house mortgage 15 year card mortgage 20 year student loan where will you go at that time somebody said you master my father is dead can i bury him and come that man says leave the dead to the dead and you if he says leave the bank to the bank bank will come and catch you anyway once you have morti 35 year 35 year mortgage what is your life span 10,000 years is it i mean what kind of life is this in 35 years if something spectacular happened here you can't change the direction of your life what kind of life are you building for yourself hello life life should be light and agile we were going this way because this is all you know right now if something really spectacular shines here you must be able to go there otherwise what kind of life is this so only then only when you have that pre-freedom spiritual process will thrive in a given society so right now when you say ins of householders let me go to those people who are living in huts who are struggling for daily food it will be obscene for me to go to that man or woman who is struggling for daily bread to go and tell come let's merit it i will never do such an obscene act i will talk about how to get better bread how to get it what to do because when a person when a human being is hungry you talking to him of mukti is the worst possible thing you can do so this is important that we understand this is important that we understand that if finer aspects of life has to come alive in a society basic survival should be taken care of for everybody only then it's possible when large number of people are struggling for survival finer things won't come forget about spirituality even art music fine things won't happen isn't it where is the time to appreciate art where is the time to look at finer things where is the time to look at a sunrise or a sunset when you are struggling for your food on a daily basis so it's extremely important basic economic well-being has to happen if spirituality has to thrive and the reason the reason why you can save that for the end okay okay the reason why spiritual process thrived the way it thrived in this land is because we had a spell a golden period of eight to ten thousand years of well-being that is when spirituality thrived because everybody ate well after that what because if you had come here as any other creature on this planet stomachful life settled but once you come as a human being stomach empty only one problem stomachful one hundred problems you got one hundred hey 99 now so this is the nature of a human being that only after survival is taken care of what it means to be human becomes relevant to you when your survival is in question just another creature like every other creature only when survival is taken care of what are the other aspects of being human beyond eating sleeping reproduction and dying one day what else can I do with myself this comes up only when there is some assurance of survival this is why I am constantly in economic forums and economic conferences because economically if there is no well-being society who the hell will merit it thank you sir for your time thank you so much do we have so I am making an offer to you if you if you get me 25 million people as earth buddies I will give you a ride on the motorcycle how is that? I think I can then it is a promise I will beg if I have to so it can touch 275 it is capped at 275 but if you want I can remove the cap and make it more do we have time for a few questions from the audience yes yes okay great Namaskar where are you I am here I am here I am 10 o'clock 10 o'clock glad to be here the question is why our older generation used to say whenever you are going to a great guru or someone don't touch their feet touch the soil don't touch their feet touch the soil and then you come up why you used to say that I had this question I did not get that question please you can repeat so elderly people used to say that whenever you visit a great guru don't directly touch their feet but definitely touch just the soil before that they used to say that so any reason for that whether it is related to any safe soil movement or spirituality I agree with these elderly people because when I am riding wherever you know there are safe soil lineups a few are formally organized others by themselves a few hundred people gathering all over in every state that we are going when I am riding if I ride away fast they will feel bad I don't want to do that so I slow down the people who did not get this advice these guys when I am riding they coming and grabbing my leg the motorcycle weighs 360 kilograms and they pulling off my leg like this they didn't hear this advice I wish they had spoken more loudly so so the thing is see to touch a human being even if it's a child they must be willing isn't it when they are willing maybe you can hold their hand maybe you can hug them maybe you can touch their feet depending on what type of relationship accordingly people can do different things between human beings otherwise in this culture we told you yes now lot of people have become half English in this country they don't know why hands are shaken even in India everybody is grabbing everybody's hands and doing like this both the hands you need to understand this handshaking came because of the cold in England it's so cold when you hold hands you don't do that in 40 degree centigrade and on top of it many of them are wearing jackets in 40 degree centigrade I was at a corporate meeting few years ago in Mumbai it was a board meeting they invited me because they wanted some advice on something and everybody was in their jackets and ties outside temperature was around 36-37 I said see if I had put my money in your company and I saw you guys wearing jackets and ties in 37 degrees I would take away my money immediately because you guys don't know what you're doing you're supposed to manage everybody's money you must feel the weather hello you must always be sensing for every every sign that is there around you economic signs may be business signs but if you don't even notice the weather you wear jacket no sath guru it is a requirement who made the requirement who told you it's a requirement no no it's a it is expected who the hell is expecting why are you wearing a tie in India when the temperatures are the way they are all this is done to prevent cold affecting your throat in summer you're wearing ties and walking around this is slavery at the core of Indian mind this needs to go I was in our tribal school the government is running a small one room school in the tribal village we were educating the children in the ashram but the government opened a small school one one room school one teacher who comes once in a way and I go there and all these girl children they're wearing ties like necklaces here they think they had a kind of a necklace they were wearing it here I said what is this why is the state government insisting these girls should wear a tie to the school where the hell are we so I'm saying it is time we rejig this nation in so many ways it's good to touch the soil where the guru has stepped rather than grabbing his feet so don't molest the guru's feet without his permission it's molestation hello yeah yeah get the microphone where's the microphone please hello sath guru my name is Seattle question that any followers how do I make them so that I can ride on your motor cycle I'm I'm reducing the number from million to just a thousand for you if you get me a thousand you get the ride thousand you can do I know you're capable of that somebody is torturing the child please take care of the child please where are you okay hi sath guru this is Anupkumar Yama here I'm the world champion gold medalist in arjun awardee in rollerskating what did he say I'm sorry I'm not able to get it yeah sath guru world champion in rollerskating in an arjun awardee so my question is you have another 4000 kilometers to go will you actually skate because it is more good of an exercise for you thank you sir no I promise you'll have no broken bones though I'm not going to break my bones on the motorcycle either wonderful sir thank you I told you it's capped at 275 what are you capped at please spread the microphone around don't keep it in one place do this quick where is the microphone please two o'clock again thank god I got the mic okay please namaskaram sath guru warm greetings hello everyone what you just hold the microphone a little closer you've seen lady kaga like that not like this like this sath guru when spiritual gurus when spiritual gurus I hope you got the mic see you should have brought the cue cord like samanta okay let me give you an example I'm Veeran satsang line satsang happens I see many many spiritual seekers making different kind of sounds but I don't feel that way I just feel disco thank you sath guru so they are all freaking why am I not freaking so see do not look at spiritual process as something different from life process if two people eat the same food both of them will not get the same level of nourishment this effect same food if two people eat one person what they get out of it another person what they get out of it is it a different level why is that so that is the way you have kept yourself in your life the way human being is made human system is a complex system the most complex on this planet somewhere else if there is somebody else we don't know but on this planet the most complex life the most complex life means in terms of evolution you are the flower of evolution compared to all the other creatures this is the flower of evolutionary process a flower that bloomed after millions of years of I will say R&D work research and development happened from an amoeba to who you are now how much work how many capabilities how many sensitivities how much competence if you were an amoeba what you could do and today what you can do is it even comparable it's another world altogether so for this much to happen so much work has happened now once this complexity comes complexity can tie itself in knots to keep it open to make it into something that will easily go in the breeze if this was little damp it wouldn't go if it's little knotted it wouldn't go it has to if the breeze comes it must fly but that is not happening to many lives because they've knotted themselves up why do they knot themselves see I don't know how old you are by that time you don't go till 18 these days by that time you're 16 17 you're looking for a bond when bond ages it becomes a bond age when why are you looking for bond ages because you're afraid of freedom freedom is a terrible thing anything can happen to you people come to me and say sath guru please bless us nothing should happen to me say what kind of blessing is this let everything happen to you let everything that can happen in life happen to you what is it nothing should happen to you means you must be dead why are you even alive so essentially this is a hand that this is a hangover from the past right now human being is in that state like if you kept a bird in a cage for many years and one day you took away the door but the bird just sits there because food comes there it's safe it need not do all this nonsense lot of work hello flying is lot of work isn't it simply you can sit there and do kiki kiki pee pee pee and eat that's what most human beings are choosing to do what is safe householders holding on to the house because it's safe I'm not against your house you need a house as a human being you can't sleep under a tree you need a house but you should live in the house not holding it in your mind if you're holding on to it as I told you I know people who are 18, 90 years of age they can't come for 3 days they want to come desperately I want to come and be in your presence they come what is the problem but my house you're not a householder house is holding you so like this you hold on to many things because you don't know you're in the middle of nowhere I want you to grasp this right now you're in the stadium it's okay actually if you look at it you're on a tiny little mud ball that you call as planet earth you don't know where the hell it is floating in this cosmos where it is going, whether it's going or not whether it will be there the next moment or not you don't know do you know hello does anybody know I'm asking no does any scientist know, does somebody else know whether we are sitting and fine out of ignorance not out of knowledge simply we think we are fine we are forever don't worry everything will be okay don't worry be happy all kinds of stuff no the beauty of life is to know all the possibilities and still not to be perturbed or disturbed by that not knowing anything and we are okay that's okay for a child if you stay that way we call you a retard yes I know it's a harsh word to use but that is the case because keeping yourself ignorant and thinking you're innocent is a retarded way of existence isn't it hello am I saying harsh things to you I'm like this I'm horrible only what to do because I'm not here to say sweet things and put you to sleep I'm here to awaken people see even for you to say save soil I had to write 26,000 km I could have told you from the yoga center please save soil you should have all yes yes sath guru no 30 years I've spoken nothing now coming away I'm glad you have so it's not just about that the important thing is you're always trying to hold on to something if you sit on this chair for three days this is chair holder anything anything that you touch sticks to you if I want you to imagine yourself because right now it's happening mentally let's say it happened physically oh this is my vessel it got stuck to you this is my chair it got stuck to you this is my person got stuck to you rather my sister my wife my husband everybody got stuck to you what a heap of mess you will be physically imagine what all is stuck to you in your mind if it was all stuck to you physically how terrible a life it would be and that's what is happening because of that nothing penetrates everything you are like a stone wall so if you have to become like breeze that everything should flow through you you should be available to life all the time there is some work to do if you simply fall in love with everything it will happen but that is a little confusing because your idea of love is again to possess somebody hello yes isn't it see love means they must belong to you no no no that's not how it is love means what you love you must liberate isn't it hello no so if you if you love the life that is here because that's all that's here you must liberate it this is why mukti is not a concept that somebody made up this is the innermost longing but that longing is in many ways suppressed on a daily basis talking about safety talking about security talking about sanity talking about doing the right thing in the society or duty or nonsense you suppress the mukti or the longing for mukti which is not a teaching or a philosophy it is the deepest longing if I keep you imprisoned in a five by five cubicle you will want to become free desperately isn't it if I release you into a ten by ten cubicle you will feel wonderful for two days then you will feel this is a terrible prison if I release you into a hundred by hundred cubicle you will feel this is fantastic for a week and then you will feel terribly imprisoned it doesn't matter where I set the boundary the moment you realize there is a boundary to my life there is something within you longing to break that boundary this is the longing for mukti it is not a concept it is not a philosophy this is the life's most innate longing is to become free but freedom is a terrible thing because anything could happen to you so you bind yourself even if you bind yourself it still happens to you life is not going to spare you it still happens to you it like somebody asked me you know said guru some of my friends say they function really well when they drink alcohol when they smoke marionade they become very creative they become very effective yeah that guy also all this so I said see nobody becomes better nobody functions better by lowering their faculties it is just that they become less ashamed of doing things clumsy alcohol takes away shame anybody please take the microphone whoever namaskaram namaskaram sath guru here here 115 namaskaram sath guru namaskaram sath guru as we all know that to early centuries our India Vishwaguru position so all around the kai would like to know what is the position of our country in the world what is that wait what is that Vishwaguru position who the hell has been listening to you who the hell has been listening to you to call yourself a guru in the world hello you think the world is listening to India before that so many we have listened about it Vishwaguru is our India so I would like to know what is the position of our country in the world so we must yes in the past people have respected this nation for the wisdom and knowledge that this land exuded as I said earlier that is mainly because we were protected by two geographical features of the day one is the Himalayas another is the Indian Ocean it is because of this we called ourselves Hindus Himalaya and Hindu Sagara between that the land that lies is Hindu land or Hindustan because we got protected by this everywhere else across Europe Central Asia warlords were fighting constantly raping, looting, burning ages those habitations but we were in a peaceful place because they couldn't cross Himalayas nor did they have the means to cross the Indian Ocean and get here once they managed to cross Himalayas after that you know what happened in the last thousand years alright so because of that kind of protected geography we invested in science, mathematics music, spiritual process in a very big way but at the same time we did not produce fighting men for that we paid the price now we have realized that and doing whatever we are doing it's fine so yes it is true at one time anything spiritual, anything profound means look towards India was a natural process but I don't think we have that right now we must gain it once again because we still have the possibility we still have the fundamentals for that we have the fundamentals but we have to build on it but there is a problem of as I said all sorts of people going and setting up spiritual centers in the west and doing some silly things and getting radicalist amount of bad press out there and now it is different wherever I go every door is open in the world but in the last thirty years every door was closed a university a conference important events in the world everything was closed for an Indian Guru because people who went ahead of me had made sure that everything is sealed really you had to really work hard and prove your worth otherwise you had to open a door for you today everybody wants us that's different but unfortunately this has happened a Guru is a four letter word it's a bad word but you are a Guru they say oh you don't look like a Guru you don't talk like a Guru how is the Guru supposed to talk oh they are supposed to say some inane stupid things that nobody understands yes really openly some top influencers in united states telling me this a Guru is supposed to say some inane miserable things that nobody understands and nobody cares only in his community people who don't know how to read that book he and he reads the book they are listening to him so unfortunately this has happened but in many ways we are once again putting India back in a virtual map of the world in a big way the reach across Africa South America North America Central Asia Central Asia is almost 100% I must tell you this incident I was in Kodi war or it's called Ivory Coast I was in Abijan which is the capital I was there for the COP 15 the Saudi Arabian visa was not cleared so because I had time there I went to the agency which was issuing this visa but they wanted my fingerprints so I had to go there so this was in some inside locality not a proper embassy so I went there and I was coming out somebody else was driving the car I was sitting in the front seat it was around 11.30-12 in the morning I mean noon time one guy was sitting there on the street side on the floor this is the kind of guy who is drunk by 11 o'clock in the morning or like that whistling boy he's the smoked up or drunk that kind of guy sitting there on the floor on the street, on the sidewalk he looks at me and says seriously, sath guru I thought this is it so we are once again touching the world we won't disappoint you I want you to know the save soil movement is under the banner of conscious planet because without conscious human beings you can't save nothing nothing so it is about creating conscious planet means individual human beings have to become conscious there is no such thing as making the planet conscious you and me have to become conscious that's the whole thing so this work is going on in 2020 I don't know what is the numbers for 2021 it's definitely higher in 2020 our video views touched 2.4 billion and I am not a beautiful superstar like you just like that talking little sense because there is that much thirst in the world there is that much longing in human beings wanting to know something when that longing is there we should not disappoint them and above all this is the first time in the history of humanity that we can sit here and talk to the entire world many great beings have come when they spoke hardly 10 people could hear them this is the first time we can sit here and talk to the entire world when we have tools and technologies and possibilities like this if we do not transform the world it shows that we don't care enough Namaskar individual level can ask her also both of you sir so what an individual level can I contribute to make a difference and to save soil like what is the basic contribution can I make as an individual because I am not like a great person like you are a man so like a common man what can I do a small thing to save soil see please one thing is you being a common man is a lie first thing you are not a man another thing is you are not common I don't see anybody else like you so you are not common I know in your life within yourself you are very special for your own life isn't it hello let's be straight about this within your own home you are a very special person if somebody treats you in a common way will you take it no so don't use those things that those things are said in political rallies it's okay there is no common man in the world if you meet him in a private space he is a very special guy so don't describe yourself like that you are doing this I am sorry I am being little like this because I am using this question to prick everybody not just you you are doing this as to how I can do less because everybody says sath guru but I am only human are you being a human means being on top of the world of all the creatures on this planet you are right on the top yes or no in the evolutionary scale of things you are on top of the world and you say I am only human when will you say I am human because human is a great possibility but you always refer to your humanity as a weakness you always refer to your humanity as if it can't do anything so now you have a phone with you phone phone is a smart one or a dumb one huh smart one see then what's the problem you have a smart companion with you always at your beckon call so when you have such a smart companion that guy no because these days people are giving names to their phones where is my pinky where is my pinky somebody was looking for their pinky and I said what pinky no my phone I call it pinky it's written pinky no name for the guy we call him Ramo today am I being too nasty is it okay huh she confessed something I am not telling you so you have a powerhouse in your hands it's a powerhouse just you just you one person just you if you are really committed with this kind of a companion in your hand the four billion people I am talking about you can will you or will you not that's left to you but you have the means to do it yes or no you have the means to do it every one of you will you do it or not is the only question I heard twenty seven and a half voices so once you have this kind of means if you really want to do something there is nobody can stop you from doing this oh I don't have a following what to do go do a jig on the street it will be good for your health also really you will have to get off those high heels and just do a jig on the street something funny oh how can I do this Satguru in Hyderabad I have a position this is the whole problem the thing is I want you to understand first I came to Hyderabad in 1983 first my visit to Hyderabad I had never been to this city I came in the peak summer I came on my its its ironic that once again I am here on a motorcycle I came on my SD 250 road king of the day so I always lived in my show Bangalore and largely in the western gods where its cool and I came to Hyderabad the damn place was sweltering in the month of May April, mid-April I came and whoof I couldn't believe it it was so hot I had never been to a place like that and then because of thirst I started drinking wherever whatever sugarcane juice all over the place so I don't know anybody this is the first time I am teaching I just came here and gave an introduction to auto rickshaw drivers rickshaw drivers not auto rickshaw there were only rickshaws at that time so I spoke to seven of them two of them enrolled into the program I went and spoke in the banks I formed the streetsides are here there there in about 23 or 24 days I enrolled 300 people this is the first time I am teaching I don't know anybody in the city and then after about 10-12 days people saw the way I was going and somebody said you can come and stay in our house so I stayed in their house they put me in the outside waranda I stayed there and the mosquitoes were too much so I went and stepped in the ISKCON temple for about 7 days I ate the food that they gave me I didn't have to do these things I had a very good family that they would have taken care of me if I want but this is the way it was done then I caught some infection because drinking all kinds of things all over the place so I was running temperature but I was still going on giving introductions there was one hotel called Taj Mahal is it still there? what is that? that old railway station what? namak yeah that one went a long time so they wouldn't give me a hall they had one stupid looking hall but that stupid looking hall they wouldn't give me it had all kinds of round lamps hanging I thought this is the most radical place but I needed a hall they wouldn't give me after much coaxing they gave me the terrace so after nearly a month of campaigning and I am running temperature for almost 20 days I have lost almost like 7 kilograms I never was excess weight I was from the age of 19 till today I am still the same weight but 7 kilograms I lost in Hyderabad you must give it back to me Sangita just sent one meal to me today I must get back to 7 kilograms so I came and stood here in Thajmal this thing like on the terrace over 350 people had gathered and I was sweating profusely my clothes were dripping with sweat because I am running such high temperature weather was also reasonably warm and I went on these are all 3 hour sessions at that time they looked at me and then somebody asked we can see you are not well you are sweating and you are running high temperature and why are you doing this I said because of you guys because you don't get it I have spoken to you already you didn't get it so I am speaking to you again out of this 350 people 327 people enrolled for my program for 14 day program I am saying this to you because if you realize that what you are doing is significant if it is really significant whatever it takes you must do it isn't it so I am just asking you use this cause of soil really significant for you or is just save soil is an entertainment for you you must make up your mind hello yes if it is significant you must just make it happen whatever it takes if it is significant you must make it happen yes I was doing but you know one volunteer what he said he pushed me I am not coming anymore every day I have people like this people come to me it is a volunteer organization over 17 million volunteers and no no don't clap because volunteer organization means nobody knows what the hell to do everybody is enthusiastic but nobody knows like I said when I am writing they are super enthusiastic they are coming and pulling my leg like this they are enthusiastic they are very wonderful people but they don't know what to do how to manage them and get work done efficiently you come to any of our events not one event ever fails in the last 35-40 years not a single event so they do really wonderful things this saves oil moment when I did not speak to our volunteers including nobody in Isha was spoken to till third of January I started this conscious planet foundation in United States two years ago I have been working with just eight people trying to figure out a few things only in third January I have called about 15-20 core volunteers in the ashram and told them we are going to do this international so there is no time let's do it in 2023 how can we do it in March 21st just two-and-a-half months not possible I said this is 2022 it is happening then some of the people even in the core group started saying no no Isha cannot do this these are all volunteers how can they do this there is so many complexities going through 27 countries through borders you don't know how many complexities are there because of the war the route changed three times and because of this extra on 1700-1800 kilometers we did which we had to accommodate in the existing schedule which was there all this seamlessly seamlessly our volunteers without a single hitch till this moment every every event every event in all these nations booked up three to four times over just false couldn't take it that is the only restriction otherwise everywhere there would be three times more people I am sure even in Hyderabad it would be the same this is because but at the same time because they are volunteers and because they are not professionally trained and above all they are not working for a living they are not doing this for a living every day somebody will come up to me and say she is so horrible I can't work with her that guy is impossible I can't work with him so I tell them see if what you are doing is really significant because in this world only such horrible people are there if you see what I am doing is very significant you must learn to work with all these horrible people and you must learn how to make this horrible people into wonderful people but if you want to work with perfect people you must go to heaven and today yes because if you can't work with the people who are here the way they are then you must go somewhere else so this problem of what can I do the immediate thing is everywhere this question is there is not just you everywhere this question what shall I do initially what they are asking is shall I go home and fix my kitchen garden very cute of you but that is not a solution you call you need something you need something you need it so for most people who are living in apartments your kitchen garden may be two pots one may be some kind of a flower thing another may be one tomato hanging there that's your kitchen garden you want to go and fix it very cute of you it's a good thing to do but it's not a solution right now we are talking about the problem of agricultural lands which accounts for nearly 71% of the world's arable land when we talk about agricultural land we are talking about that piece of geography on which daily human hand is tending to it men and women are working on it and that is in the most horrific state not even a single nation not a single nation in the entire world has the minimum 3% organic content which makes soil soil not even one nation so this has happened for whatever reasons let me not go into the technicalities of it but the important thing is you must understand when we are facing a problem of this magnitude where scientists are talking about soil extinction when we use the word extinction we normally said dinosaurs and dodos but now we are talking about soil extinction and that's not a joke because just 70-80 years ago almost every nation used to face this at least in our nation we used to have severe famines every 3-4 years in 1942 the famine took 3.2 million people in 4 months in this country famine is not is not even like a war war means atleast somebody will shoot you dead this is a slow fade 3-4 months it takes to die slowly most terrible things will happen to you you will lose your humanity altogether there have been many nations many situations I don't want to name them but there have been many many places where people have chopped off the limbs of their own children and eaten to survive because they didn't want to kill their children do we want to drive the world once again in the direction of the famine because that's exactly where we are pointed right now the whole world is moving towards the famine it is not even that we have not reached there yet already two nations in Africa today you just see the news two nations in Africa are going into severe famine 49 million people are not going to have any food David Bisley who was on the video I saw he said we don't have the money to provide food last year they provided food worth 9 billion dollars this year they asked for 15 billion dollars they are not getting it because everybody is talking about Ukraine next year they want 22 billion dollars how long will you run the world like this food must grow where people are isn't it you get it from here there and give aid is it going to work for long this year I want all of you to know this feel it in your heart otherwise what is the point 350,000 children could die in the next 4 to 6 months because there is no nourishment how can we let this happen after all this infrastructure this education this information this technology everything once again we are driving the world towards famine this is not this is simply unpardonable as far as I am concerned we must turn it away fortunately 74 nations have already declared others are examining the safe soil policy document I am sure they will move in that direction I have no doubt about it we will also work on this we are setting up a 25 member scientific committee which will hand hold small nations after this after this journey is over the real hard work begins so what can I do one thing is you can give your time to me because you have a smart friend that is one thing but right now you use your smart friend properly explore your smart friend properly there are so many possibilities there do something do a jig do a song do whatever nonsense you want to do but somehow awaken the world to this because otherwise once again we are driving towards famine this time it could be a global thing when food scarcity comes I want you to know whoever has the biggest guns will take the food even if you grow it in your backyard you will not eat it just know this thank you so much Satguru for the beautiful insights and yes we are all with you in the safe soil movement thank you so much Samanta for joining in conversation with Satguru I spoke very harshly in the last answer something nice ask a nice question to somebody a fun question hello hello okay anyway we can take somebody across anything only if they are willing willingness means let me tell you this happened wait if I have to tell you a story you must be in the right mode when I say once upon a time aha hello once upon a time Shankaran Pillai had three boys and one day because he was in Telangana one day he called his boys and said you good for nothing people am I pronouncing it properly my accent is correct you good for nothing fellows you must do something good in your life the boys asked you know the Telangana boys there's father what is good we don't know what is good how to do good this you don't know what is good do something good but we don't know what is good how to do good do something go out help a old lady to cross the street do something like that so then the boys went out in the evening they came back so Shankaran Pillai asked the first boy did you do something good yes father as you said I helped the old lady to cross the street aha you are a good boy second boy came he asked him did you do anything good today yes father I helped the old lady to cross the street you also found another old lady then the third boy came he asked what did you do old lady to cross the street father what all three of you found three old ladies to cross the street no no no father not just three of us we also called our cousin Ramu because you don't know these old ladies are so stubborn she just wouldn't cross so you can only help people who are willing are you willing save soil let's make it happen thank you very much Samanta to be here and make this happen thank you very much la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la soil body hunger unquenched hunger can burn the very vulnerable responsibility save soil


Stand by for crime Chuck Morgan again You know being a newscaster in a radio station the size of KLP puts me in line to meet a lot of people Statistic show that there are more than five million act of criminals in the USA These include the sneaking small-time petty thieves and the big-time operators who had a murder incorporated They also include the racketeers that group of sadistic unscrupulous parasites who pray upon the weak the innocent the honest citizen My way of thinking they're the worst the ones we can best get along without Especially those who deal in human emotions Which is why when I reached my office last Thursday and found Carol Curtis my blonde secretary entertaining a stranger I Listened to her story and really got burned up. Have you been to the police about this mrs. Ellis? Yes, but what can they do? This woman is made Dawson. She claims to be our baby's natural mother She has a birth certificate to prove it you see Chuck mr. Mrs. Ellis adopted Betsy when she was only seven months old She's now six years Naturally, they think of her as their own. Oh, she is our own miss Curtis Why we love her more than than if I were her natural mother. What about the adoption agency? Well, they went out of business a year after we took Betsy It's a usual pattern if you people who adopt youngsters would only investigate these so-called a mrs. Ellis didn't come here to be lectured I'm sorry. She knows she's wrong, but that doesn't alter things She's in danger of losing her child and she wants to know if there isn't something you can do to prevent it I don't know what the police's hands are tied What about this made Dawson the child's natural mother? Well, she claims that after the child was born she was unable to support it So she left it with the adoption agency and she told them that as soon as she was able She'd come and get the baby and pay them for having kept it. Yeah, that follows Yeah, hello, Pappy come in This is mrs. Clara Ellis mrs. Ellis Pappy Mansfield owner of KLP. How do you do? Mrs. Ellis believes she's been victimized by one of those adoption agencies Pappy. Oh one of those, huh? Yeah, she's going to lose her baby Pappy unless someone does something about it, and I think Chuck should do it Chuck what can Chuck do? Well, he can at least talk to that woman. Now wait a minute glamour first Mrs. Ellis, have you said anything to this woman about money? I mean did you offer her some as she allowed you to keep the youngster? No, I was afraid to My husband's a tool and die worker mr. Morgan. He makes a comfortable living and we've saved $2,000 against Betsy's education If Mae Dawson took that 2,000 then she'd want more we'd be bled for the rest of our lives And if she didn't take the 2,000 then you'd have to assume that she was the child's natural mother And you don't want to think that right mrs. Ellis? Yes, that's right But whether she is or not she hasn't any rightful claim to Betsy Why the woman hasn't seen the child since she was seven months old now How could she possibly your mother instinct is getting the best of you glamour buzz You know that money angle might give us the answer we're looking for now Just what do you think you're going to do? Yes, just what do you think you're going to do? I hope well If the woman will offer some money a sizable amount and took it It would prove the whole thing's a racket and mr. and mrs. Ellis could keep their baby And if she didn't Chuck would be a sucker How much money were you thinking of offering Chuck? Oh say $20,000 well, that's a good neat figure. Hmm now just where are you going to get this tidy sum to offer the lady? Well, I'm happy. I'm surprised you're going to provide it, of course Well, it wasn't an easy job selling papi on the idea. He should risk $20,000 trying to expose what might or might not be one of the most vicious rackets in the books It was only half convinced that may Dawson didn't have a legitimate claim Especially since Clare Ellis had no proof whatever that may Dawson wasn't little Betsy's natural mother But papi that's what we want to find out if it's a racket then we want to know about it Why we're not in the racket busting business check. We're running a radio station. Why should we because when you run a radio station or a Newspaper or any other public service enterprise It's supposed to be devoted to the best interests of the people who support it and that's the public My my just listen to miss Curtis. No, look, this is what I have in mind Suppose I call on Mrs. Dawson. I'll represent myself as Mrs. Ellis's attorney I'll tell her the Ellis's are too upset to talk to her again I'll hint around and finally offer them $20,000 of my money. Oh Chuck. I knew you'd do something Mrs. Ellis you having a thing to worry about from now on Chuck will take care of that now wait a minute glamour post Let's not get Mrs. Ellis's hopes up. I can't promise a thing There's still a 50-50 chance of me Dawson is legitimate if she is there's nothing anybody can do She won't take my baby. Mr. Morgan. I don't care who she is. She won't take my baby. I'll kill her first The more I thought about this thing the more I wondered if I weren't being a sucker Even if after talking to me Dawson, I became convinced she was pulling a racket. What could I do about it? The whole thing didn't make sense Except that I kept thinking what a terrible tragedy it would be if Clark and Clara Ellis had their baby taken away from them Or if Mrs. Ellis carried out her threat to commit murder So it was with considerable misgivings that I rang the doorbell of an apartment in West Los Angeles Which is where may Dawson had told Clara Ellis. She was living Yes, hello you Mrs. Dawson. Yes, I'm Mrs. Dawson, but if you're no, I'm not selling anything Mrs. Dawson My name is Simpson. I'm an attorney employed by mr. Mrs. Clark Ellis. Oh, oh, yes, mr. Simpson. Won't you come in? Thank you Would you sit over here, please thank you very much I Hardly know what to say about this mr. Simpson I I know exactly how the Ellis's feel and I certainly don't blame them. I have a bell. Oh Company man. Oh Arnold. I'm glad you stayed home today. This is mr. Simpson. He's an attorney hired by the Ellis's And it isn't how you do I can guess why you're here mr. Simpson We both feel terrible about this probably as bad as the Ellis's but you are going through with it Well, you see the Simpson if you or the Ellis's could only see our side of the picture You see Arnold and I were married a year after I learned that the adoption agency had closed Our first baby died at three months The doctor told me I couldn't have any more It was the worst thing that ever happened to me For a long while I thought I'd never be normal again Well, didn't it occur to you and mr. Dawson to adopt a child?  Simpson and lose it no I'm afraid I don't I'm I'm not married May took it hard mr. Simpson. I kept her under a doctor's care for about 15 months Then one day I was going through some of her things and I came across Betsy's birth certificate. Oh, you uh, you Know about her first child then. Well, I knew she'd been married before but she never told me about the baby I was afraid of of what he'd think of me for abandoning Betsy And what did you think mr. Dawson? It's quite a blow But well, I love my wife very much mr. Simpson She was ill at the time and I sit me wasn't going to condemn her for something that wasn't her fault How long was it after that that you decided to claim Betsy not until last week I Had no idea where Betsy was living her whore foster parents were And then quite by chance. I met mr. Harrison mr. Harrison. Who's he mr. Harrison on the adoption agency where I'd left Betsy I Reminded him that he promised to keep Betsy for six months before letting her go and he reminded me that he had kept her for six months and one week And then that he only let her go because he decided to close the agency I see and he told you whether Ellis's could be found. Yes, he did Arnold and I talked it over and and then I decided to go see Betsy I Don't know what happened to me that day only suddenly. I simply had to have my baby Well, I think I can understand how you thought mrs. Dawson, but I can also understand mrs. Ellis's feelings, too By the way, I wonder if I can see that birth certificate. Yes, of course. I'll get it for you. Thank you Well Dawson got the birth certificate without hesitation. I took it over to the window where I could get a good look at it Now I'm no expert on birth certificate, but this one looked okay to me It had been recorded in a small town in Rhode Island properly signed and sealed Still there was something something I could put my finger on Maybe it was because the Dawson's had been too willing to let me see the paper Well stalling for time I turned the certificate over and back again pretending to be studying it But whatever it was that it hit me wouldn't gel When it certainly looks okay This is gonna be rough on the Ellis's Mrs. Dawson about adopting another baby. Have you Mr. Simpson? I just couldn't knowing that Betsy's my very own Yes, it's true, but she's mrs. Ellis's own tool. There's something else to consider too. Mr. Simpson It's expensive adopting babies these days expensive. Well, I don't know much about this business, but I understand There's always a certain amount of expense involved in such a procedure. There's legal work Physicians fees adoption fees while a dozen different items and all add up well on that event I'd like to make a suggestion if it's finances that bothers you. I'm sure the Ellis's will be glad Well, it's no use mr. Simpson. I Want my baby and I mean to have her darling. We can at least listen to mr. Simpson suggestion What are we going to say mr. Simpson simply this the Ellis's are willing to pay a sizable amount in order to be able to keep Betsy Enough in fact to defray all the cost of adopting another baby and to secure the child's future and your own Reconciliable period and what would that amount be? $20,000 20,000 oh, I don't know I don't care how large the amount is Can't you understand that it isn't money? I want it's my baby. I understand perfectly my dear But what could we do for Betsy when rather poor circumstances, you know And if we had our own baby with enough money to rear her properly Wouldn't it be best all around well it is worth considering mrs. Dawson and think of what you'd be doing for the Ellis I Know I I know But Betsy is mine my very own and it's she who I want. Oh, you're upset darling Believe me.  I'll tell you what let's think it over and talk it over a little Before we give mr. Simpson all answer and be no harm in that All right fine. How's that satisfactory with you mr. Simpson? Say, oh well a day or maybe two or three days. Oh, of course. I'm sure the Dawson's to be agreeable here I'll give you my phone number where I can be reached So I scribbled my home number on the slip of paper and gave it on a Dawson Wondered if he check up the location and wondering also if he'd look up attorney Simpson in the city directory Then I remember to give him my first name. There must be a hundred or more attorneys named Simpson in the LA area But the way I had it figured Arnold wouldn't bother to check anything. He wanted to get his hands on that 20 grand Also, he wouldn't wait two or three days either. I Was right He called me that evening and said that he and his wife had decided to take the money and adopt another baby Well, I got down to the office early the next morning I found Papi and Carol waiting I called Papi the night before and told him what the score was and was therefore not surprised at the reception I got which wasn't promising.  You told us about your visit yesterday proves that the Dawson's aren't phony give me a for instance sure I'll give you a for instance good if they were working a racket. They'd ask for cash You told me last night. They were willing to accept a check I don't let him talk you out of it Chuckie boy. You keep out of this Carol I'm sorry. I'm not gonna let him talk me out of a glamour buzz these two are phonies working the smelliest racket I've ever known the reasonable Chuck agreeing to take a check they beat dope stas for cash Papi It'll be a dead giveaway. They're phonies. I can prove it. How number one They were too willing almost eager to have me examine that birth certificate Is that your proof number two? They asked for two days and took two hours before accepting the offer Boy Chuck Carol. I've already told you.  I saw something on that birth certificate that definitely proves it was fake. Yeah, what was it? I don't know now. That's a good answer You know it sounds like sounds like Chuck Morgan trying to be cute. I'm not kidding Papi The clue is on that birth certificate I'm sure of it, but I've got to get my hands on the certificate and study it again And the only way he can do that is to buy it with twenty thousand dollars Which means we expose the racket and have a whale of a story and mr. Mrs. Ellis will be happy again My twenty thousand bucks will be gone. I promise you it won't if it is you can take it out of my salary Take it out of your saddle while I know how many years it'll take I should live so long We are stopping so hard to get along with and open up that checkbook, please Okay, but just remind me to shoot myself directly after lunch. Will you hand me that pen? So happy wrote out the check for twenty thousand dollars with a trembling hand and an unhappy expression on his face And I took it and I got out of there before he changed his mind. I Started for West LA and then suddenly I changed my mind I thought it occurred to me a very bright thought indeed and instantly I felt better I put up at a drugstore phone Carol gave her some precise instructions Then I phoned bill Megs a police headquarters and asked him if he could meet me for a round of golf at the Burnside Country Club He couldn't did I told him the whole story. It was at the ninth hole where there's a water hazard Then I remembered what was on that birth certificate that made it a phony. I told bill about it, too He agreed. I had a case So bill and I had lunch we parted It was 255 when I finally pushed the doorbell of the Dawson apartment. Oh, hello Simpson come in. Thank you Mrs. Dawson's rather upset. Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. I I hope you're not going to change your mind Mrs. Dawson. I I don't know Every time I think of my own baby. No, no no no stop. This makes me feel like a kid napper Perhaps if I talk to mr. Mrs. Ellis, Mrs. Dawson, and I have made our decision mr. Simpson Let's get this over as quickly as possible Brought the check of course. Yes. I have it right here. Excellent. Now. I've prepared a paper relinquishing any claims We have on Betsy. We both signed it. Well, I'm not so much interested in such a paper as I am in that birth certificate Birth certificate mr. Simpson, of course without that any claims you might make would be worthless So I'm afraid I'll have to ask you for that certificate in exchange for this check Yes, of course I understand and I may yes, I'll get So many women to the other room after the birth certificate and sucker me didn't figure it out She came back at a minute later Here you are mr. Simpson, which was when I made my mistake. I turned and I Must have had a pair of breasts knuckles hidden in this pocket. Nothing else could have hit me harder or knocked me colder faster Time-bast I suppose it did. I was in no condition to check All I know is that when I could see again It wasn't anything to look at except a crack of light which apparently came from beneath the door Also, I was well trust up and the same old voodoo drum was beating its familiar tattoo inside my head I had a door open in the room beyond and it was another sound which was sweet sweet music Well, there's no one here, Papi. No, it looks like we're wasting our time.  Well, so it is well fancy. Oh, happy stop being funny. He's hurt He had a chubby boy. Let me untie that gag Papi loosen the ropes sure sure Chuck what happened? Are you hurt? Don't touch my head. That's all just don't touch my head. Ah now there you are my boy Yeah, yours free as the wind again. Oh, thanks, Papi. Did they get away who the Dawson? Yeah, well, there's no one here but us so they must have you got the birth certificate of course No, but I remember what was on it that was phony. What was it before you answer that? There's just one question. Did they get the twenty thousand? Yes, but don't worry.  You're not that dumb if they've got that check what stopped them from cashing it because I waited until almost three o'clock Before getting here. They couldn't get to the bank in time They'll have to wait until tomorrow morning to cast a check and we'll be on hand to greet them.  No, wait a minute everything occurs to you, but the right thing Huh? This is Friday and on Fridays the Los Angeles banks are open all day a Quick call to Papi's bank confirmed the fact that the Dawson's had been there and cast the check and a quick exit by me Prevented Papi from firing me on the spot 20,000 smackers I Began figuring how long it would take me to pay it back at the rate of 50 bucks a month But lost track when I became 70 years old after all I'm no Einstein Brother, I'd really pulled a boner this time When I went back to the office prepared to face the wrath of mr. Mansfield But luckily Papi wasn't in But good old glamour piss was waiting for me with a kind word and a cheerful smile Never mind. Checkie boy. Papi'll forget the whole thing as soon as he cools off Yeah, yeah, but it's gonna take more than my winning smile to cool him off $20,000 worth old fiddly D You know sure tomorrow. I'm gonna be saying it's been nice to have known Papi. Oh, don't be silly Look, I've got an idea that will make everyone feel better. Yeah, what's that? Well in the disappointment of failure all of us forgot the noble purpose of your event Please don't remind me now be able to keep their little Betsy and we haven't even told them, you know, you're right Listen, give them a ring. Well, wouldn't it be better if we went out and told them in person? Huh?  Let's go So Glamour piss and I headed for the address that Clara Ellis had given us As we got near I found myself looking forward to this experience After all I hadn't failed my purpose not by a long shot The Ellis's were going to keep their child and by golly. That was worth 20 grand of anybody's money even Papi Mansfield The Ellis's lived in a white stucco apartment house halfway up a hill on Melrose Avenue east of Vermont They had a ground floor apartment with an outside entrance Carol rang the bell Hello, Mrs. Ellis remember us why it's mr. Morgan and Miss Curtis. Yes. How's Betsy, Mrs. Ellis Betsy. Oh, she's fine Just fine. Maybe come in a minute. We've got some good news for you. Well, I that is Could you make it some other time? Oh, you don't understand Mrs. Ellis? Our good news is about Betsy You don't have to worry anymore It was something wrong about this something very wrong Mrs. Ellis had suddenly lost her role of stricken mother and was either scared or mad. Why I Didn't have to spend much time trying to figure the answer to this one The answer appeared behind Mrs. Ellis the door to another room open and two people appeared one a man carrying a suitcase The man was Arnold Dawson and the woman may Dawson For about two seconds all five of us stood frozen in a state of shock And in that two seconds the whole dirty picture was revealed to me as clear as a newly washed window We've been taken in by one of the smoothest rackets I'd ever come across The Dawson's and Mrs. Ellis had conspired to extort $20,000 from happy Mansfield There wasn't any little Betsy or stricken parents or long-seeking mother was all a gag But it was a fact that they made a goat out of me that made me mad I not only saw red but all the other colors of the spectrum It didn't make any difference that at that moment Dawson dropped his suitcase and reached for a gun I went into that house like a charging bull It was over as quickly as that Dawson was down and out and I had his gun The two females had been too scared to move so now they didn't have a chance Get Bill Megs on the phone glamour bus if one of these stricken mothers makes a move I'll blast her from here to Sunday So that's how it was at a half hour later Carol and I were driving back to KLP to bring the glad tidings to Pappy Mansfield Pappy was alone in his office and Carol and I walked in Oh Hello Chuck you and I have got to have a talk but Pappy wait a minute When the glamour first, but Pappy have a say go on shoot Pappy. Well. I've been thinking about that $20,000 Yeah, I don't know Chuck. I guess I was a little hasty what well after all you did keep the elixirs from losing their I mean well that was your intention and I guess well, I guess that's worth 20,000 Now wait a minute wait a minute just a minute don't get the idea that I'm an easy mark I'm not one more dumbheaded deal like that. I love you. I not only love him.  I'm an old man. Pappy and an old man shouldn't be pouring 20,000 bucks down ratholes Just to hear the noise they make so Here's the bundle back again. What hey is that real holy smoke Chuck? What is this? $20,000 Pappy every time no thing was a frame Pappy. There wasn't any little bit or stricken mothers All three of them were in it together Chuck and I went out to tell Mrs. Ellis She wasn't going to lose her daughter and the Dawson's were there. We called Bill Megs and I retrieved the dolls Oh Chuck was wonderful. He licked them all of course two of them were women Well, I'll be no kidding Well, I'll be no kidding. Well now come on Pappy. You can think of something better to say than that. Sure. I can Well, I'll be no kid say Chuck.  Miss Curtis? Mr. Mansfield under the circumstances. I'll be glad to tell you without undue delay I'll go ahead. Yeah, stop saying yeah glamour person doesn't lady like yeah Yeah, when I read the birth certificate, I took it to the window to get a good look I couldn't help noticing the watermark on the paper. It was dated 1950 Which meant that the paper was manufactured that year and since Betsy was supposed to be six years old Her birth certificate couldn't have been written on paper that wasn't made until three years after she was born get it? Well, I'll be no kidding. And so will I no kidding. Yeah, no kidding. Come here Glamour Puss
