EnglishSo he said the scope is only of one thing and that one thing is that scope is always of great quality. So no matter what you do, whatever you do, if you do something which you love and you're really passionate about and you're great at, it doesn't matter. The scope will come for you. And he says that the things which you think you're worst at are your greatest gifts. Look at them, refine them and find your gifts. How does a bird get food? Everything. Do they have a bank account? Does anybody in the world knows the bank account number of this birds flying around? They find food everywhere. All these animals living in jungle. Do they go and store food for some reason? Do you really need the billion dollars? You really don't need the billion dollars. Money will come and find you when you need it. So I want to tell you the story of this friend of mine or mentor of mine or somebody I know. I went to see him and he told me his story that one day he was sitting in his home in LA and his house was his studio, he's a fashion designer. His studio was in Cher's house or somewhere there. had helped move Madonna her house. I mean the kind of friends he had, I mean who would help you move the house, very close friends. So that's the kind of person he is and he helped design Closed-Eyed Matrix movie. He gets a call from his best friend from Pakistan that, hey buddy can you come back live with us I miss you So he talks to his wife and he says you know what I think we should go back We can go back and live in Pakistan And they all settled here in LA and everything And so they just moved. They just moved to Pakistan. And after three, four years, his best friend, which was turned out to be his grandfather, he died. And he died in his arms. And he was very happy that he was there for that. And then he gave him a bath. You know, in our religion, when you die, you give them a bath, you clean them up. It's done normally by a family member or somebody, a religious person. So he did it and he was very happy to do that. It changed his life. And then he says that one thing he thought of was scope. And he was very worried what will happen when he goes back to Pakistan because he's all this accomplished fashion designer in LA. He's going back to Pakistan where there's no fashion scene for him or at least at that par, there's no movies or metrics going on in Pakistan. What will he do there? And he said that this worst scope is very powerful and we use it to scare people. And so he just came back and because he was also worried that what's the scope in Pakistan. So he said the scope is only of one thing. And that one thing is that scope is always of great quality. So no matter what you do, whatever you do, if you do something which you love and you're really passionate about and you're great at, it doesn't matter. The scope will come for you. So everybody wants the best thing in the world. But he wanted to be near his grandfather. So he left everything and he went back to Pakistan. He lived there and now he one of the top fashion designers in Pakistan And he just opened up a new shop in Dubai He doing very well again And he comes from a wealthy family So his father says, okay, we have this huge property. He goes in and he makes an art studio like you. He makes an art studio in an old warehouse. And all of the middle of nowhere. and his grandfather, his father says, who is also his friend, says, you know, well, let's break this place and make it into a plaza or a building or something, right? So he says to his father, what will I do with this, father? Why do we want to do this? Let's break it. Well, why do you want to do it? Well, we'll make a lot of money. So he said, what will you do with a lot of money? Will I buy two cars, one foot in one car and the other foot in one car? I'm wearing really nice clothes. Will I wear another clothes on top of these clothes? What will I do with all this? I'm eating three times a day. What do I mean? Six times a day. What will I do with that money? That's the question which I have. And so he says that nothing. And he tells me this share, this poetry of Bulleh Shah. So Bulleh Shah says, I'll say that in Punjabi, then I'll translate. Have you seen the birds flying in the sky? Has anybody seen the birds flying in the sky Has anybody ever seen a flying bird go die out of hunger People collect food People die out of hunger. So the point here was that no matter where you are, who you are, once you find what you're great at, and he says that the things which you think you're worst at are your greatest gifts. look at them refine them and find your gifts and once you become great at your gifts money is not a problem it just attracts you you become a magnet people will just come to you out of nowhere money will come to you that's something which is the weirdest thing in this world which happens which people are taught to forget all these books and all these things all these professors have taught us that this is the only way it works but they don't show you or teach you the laws of nature. The law of nature. How does a bird get food? Everything. Do they have a bank account? Does anybody in the world know the bank account number of these birds flying around? They find food everywhere. All these animals living in jungle. Do they go and store food for some reason? How do they find food? Why don't they die out of hunger? Why do jungles don't finish? Why do they prosper? the only animal which which if we kill if we if we kill all the insects in the world they say in 50 years humankind will finish everybody will finish but if we if we kill if humans are finished the whole world will flourish everybody else will flourish it's only humankind which is you know a little messed up we just storing things we don't know we need a billion dollars to start Do you really need the billion dollars? No, you really don't need the billion dollars. Money will come and find you when you need it. I have had friends who tell me money knocks on their door when they need it. Just comes. They don't even know how it happens. It just happens. And this is the law of nature, which we don't realize. And we think it's funny, it's weird. Yes, we cannot explain it. We don't understand it. But, you know, there are things we cannot see through our eyes right now. Nobody has seen God. Everybody is like believing in God. Why? It's a belief system. But it's a little, you know, it's a little broken. So once we realize that there is more to what we know of, then, you know, there are so many. We all believe that there are so many stars, right? And each galaxy is a star. And there are billions of galaxies. Come on. And we are, what are we? We are less than, if you take a finger, put it in the ocean, take it out, the water which is on that finger will be less than that, this whole world. And we're so proud. Oh, we're Americans. Pakistan, we're Indian. Mighty, might. What the f***? We're like, what are we? We're nothing. So once you realize your true potential, that you are Superman, you can do almost anything. And most people are told, no, you're not. Till you do this this this and then we will tell you you are Superman who's we Who gave them the power you give them the power to tell you who you are? Take them back take the power back take you tell yourself Who are you? Once you take the power back from them They'll have nothing you're not doing right So just take the power back take it to yourself follow your heart for God sake Open your third eye Another teacher says your intuition is your third eye Once you make your intuition stronger and stronger, you will feel a few more things. You will listen to your heart more. The more you listen to your heart, the more you will be a stronger person. That's what my learning is. That's what I'm following. It might not be true, because everybody else around me doesn't think it's true. So it's not true to them. And I hope they can realize the same thing so they can feel or hope it's true. But I meet so many people who live like that. And they're fine. They're like those birds. All those people, you know, all these monks, they're not allowed to work, right? So the monk cannot eat. If he cannot store food, he lives like a bird. he has this bowl it's called a monk bowl he will go knock at people's doors if they get the food on one door only he cannot go to the next door if he gets food he can eat if he doesn't he cannot ask till that day he has to go back next day they're fine they're alive right they're all over i have never heard that a monk died of hunger how did that happen they're everywhere they're walking in jungle, they're doing this and that and they're still alive. And we are so worried, oh, if we don't have a million dollars, I don't have the freedom. What freedom, man? You have given your whole freedom away, asking for freedom. What freedom? What freedom are you looking for? Why do you need a billion dollars? That's my question. That's all I wanted to translate what I heard. That's great. Rehan telling us take the power back. you
