Are you sure what I mean by witnessing? Do you also mean the same? Would it not be better to discuss about these things first? Would it not be better to test our communication protocol, before we start communicating? Would it not be better to test our email system, let’s say messaging system?
Would it not be common sense to be first of all to come to the ground of reality between me and you, as right now when we are together like this as a teacher-student that you also understand, you also have the same meaning in your mind, your understanding about this concept is same as mine also? Would it not be better? Otherwise, do you imagine how dangerous it is, for us to use concepts?
There was one man, who sent his servant to market buy two bananas. He brings one banana.
He says, “Where is the second banana?”
He says, “It’s here.”
He says, ”Listen, I am asking you, where is the second banana?”.
He says, “It’s here”.
”Are you crazy? Do you not understand, what do you mean, what I mean by second?”
He said, ”I do fully understand.”
He said, ”Then where is the second banana?”
He says, “It’s here.”
He says, “Oh OK”. Then he kind of stops and thinks again, “OK, where is the first banana?”
He says, ”I ate it.”
He says, ”How?”
He peels it off and eats the second banana, “Like this.”
Do you see the risk of using concept; second banana. And we will continue talking like this.
