Enlightenment will happen to you when you are very, very, very truthful to a fact. Even if you are not truthful toward reality or a fact from both sides, but if you are very truthful to a one-sided view of life, then you have a chance to attain enlightenment. And whether you attain enlightenment or not, this is true. [Much laughter.]
