Once upon a time, a king met a sage, and the king lived around those who always agreed with him, saying, "Yes, Sire, you're correct," and it's possible to have a sense of always being right, and then wanting to have everybody agree with you and condescend. So he had a tinge of that even when he met the sage. So the king, upon meeting the sage, there in a place that seemed a little desolate, when other people there said, "Who are you?" to the sage. And when the sage detected that sense of ego in the king, to impart wisdom to him, he replied something that seemed unusual. Because he was a sage, maybe antithetical to being a king, and he said, "I am a king." Surprising, right? The sage saying "I'm a king." So let's see what happens. (0:38:44)
