00:00:00.000 Why one kid?
00:00:00.900 I said, only one mistake I make.
00:00:02.280 I never repeat my mistakes.
00:00:03.900 Is that really why?
00:00:06.120 Actually, I never wanted to have children, but my wife said she felt that she may feel
00:00:12.100 that she has missed that experience of having a child.
00:00:15.280 So I said, okay.
00:00:16.800 Now my daughter decided not to have children. 0.94
00:00:19.160 Why didn't she want children? 1.00
00:00:21.080 Why didn't she want children?
00:00:23.400 I had a lot to do on everybody's mind.
00:00:26.420 All the people who were with me, they are more than my children.
00:00:30.000 But you didn't want to have more kids?
00:00:32.260 You didn't want to have five, ten kids?
00:00:34.480 I have millions of them.
00:00:35.660 But your own blood that didn't do anything for you as a man growing up, that you wanted
00:00:40.040 more kids?
00:00:40.500 It's up to you whether you have children of your blood or of your spirit.
00:00:46.560 For me, children of my spirit are more important than blood.
00:00:51.120 Tell me why.
00:00:52.880 Because it's more significant.
00:00:55.640 Children of your spirit are more important than the children of your blood?
00:00:59.120 Yes.
00:00:59.340 More significant?
00:01:00.300 It is.
00:01:01.160 So you're saying you could have a child of your blood
00:01:03.340 that is not of your spirit?
00:01:06.000 No, no, no.
00:01:06.800 It can be of your spirit also.
00:01:09.040 But for that, you don't have to be of your blood.
00:01:13.520 So what do you think is the biggest accomplishment
00:01:16.600 in a man's life?
00:01:18.800 You hear different Proverbs, you know,
00:01:20.320 we'll say a man should do three things in his lifetime,
00:01:23.720 have a child, you know, plant a tree, write a book.
00:01:26.720 What do you think is the biggest accomplishment for a man?
00:01:30.000 Well, plant a tree .
00:01:34.420 It's not an accomplishment, it's a sensible thing to do.
00:01:38.000 Have a child.
00:01:39.000 Well, not a must, now because we are already eight point four, eight point five billion
00:01:45.540 people.
00:01:46.540 So you think we have plenty?
00:01:47.540 Huh?

00:01:49.540 We have more than plenty.
00:01:50.540 In the beginning of twentieth century, we were one point six billion people.
00:01:54.540 Today we are eight point five billion people.

00:02:01.280 There are a whole lot of people who will start a campaign against me, oh, he's depopulation

00:03:20.880 You think that's what it is?

00:04:03.660 If you talk about this, now there is competition between religions, this religion is producing

00:04:19.820 One thing is individual human beings' footprint is too large compared to what it was hundred 1.00
00:04:24.220 years ago.
00:04:25.720 What ten men used to consume, today one man is consuming, or what hundred people used

00:04:40.580 Unless he was a Maharaja or something.
00:04:41.580 No, no, true.
00:04:42.580 So our footprint as it is, is larger.
00:04:45.700 Our aspirations are larger.
00:04:47.580 You can't curtail human aspiration, but you can manage or plan human population.
00:04:54.340 But we are in competition.
00:04:55.840 My blood versus your blood.
00:04:57.720 Well, both the bloods will spill one day.
