WISDOM
.... a little differently: if we want to try and live in a world of truth, we should make an effort to live in a world of possibility. Let's take two cooks, and one cook is living in the world of truth and knows exactly how to cook everything. The other cook is open to possibilities. For example, I wonder how many people in this room when making scrambled eggs have put currants in scrambled eggs, it's very, very good. Trying possibilities, possibilities— we want to live in a world of truth which obviously if you're driving a motor car that's valid, but otherwise open up a bit to have possibilities. People behave in a certain way and you think they are aggressive. You say maybe there's a possibility, maybe they're a little bit insecure, maybe there's something else. But we don't make enough effort to open our universe to possibilities.
We want to say this is true, this is right answer in school, that's what the teacher is going to give you marks for. And possibilities enlarge the world tremendously.
