If you keep them as dogs, and if you ask some dogs, “My dear dogs, please do not bark. Live peacefully,” is it possible? The dog will bark. That is their business. So we are not enlightening them what is actually we are. We are keeping on this bodily conception. That is the dog’s conception. And how there will be peace? There cannot be. Simply by agreement, by treaty, there can be any peaceful? No. Just like children. They agree, “Yes, we shall not fight.” Next moment they’ll fight. And again they will make agreement. This is going on.
