"Father, are You not proud of me when I speak to so many people all about You?"

"Son, I am proud of you because so many gods and goddesses listen to you."

"But Father, sometimes unlike the divine gods and goddesses, the human gods and goddesses look ugly and dirty."

"But son, you have the capacity to make them clean, tidy, beautiful and soulful."

"Father, You have told me all about my capacities. Now tell me something about Your own capacities."

"Son, I have only one capacity. Everyday I empty your Ignorance-Sea and fill it with My Knowledge-Light."

"Father, I am glad and sorry to tell You that Your one capacity surpasses all my proud capacities."
