Wants 2￼

If man were to have no wants, research would become so easy

Whereby a science that benefits humankind would develop to the utmost.

If man were to have no wants, politics would be righteous,

and so everyone would be at ease and would live as one.

If man were to have no wants, people’s standards of living would be equal.

If man were to have no wants, culture would flourish to the utmost.

If man were to have no wants, he would have no pride,

and so there would be no conflicts.

If man were to have no wants, homes, societies, and nations would be endlessly peaceful.

If man were to have no wants, he would be loyal to what he does of his own accord.

If man were to have no wants, he would live serving others.

Therefore, people would be able to live with their minds at ease;

there would be no thieves or robbers;

not one person would harbor a malevolent mind;

there would not a single person who torments others;

people would all be one no matter where they go,

and so the world would be wonderful place to live.

So long as man has wants, religions, ideologies, and philosophies cannot be right;

neither can politics nor societies.

Through the saints, Heaven has conveyed its will to man

that he must not harbor wants.

However, this will could not see the light of day,

for man was not able to eliminate the cause of his wants;

for the saints were unable to teach man how to completely discard the mind he has;

for the saints did not know how to discard it, and so man was unable to do so.

Heaven has its season,

and now is the time in which the perfect and infinite Truth has come to the world.

May you and I live together in the true world;

let us enjoy eternal life, blessings, and happiness.
