00:01:25.892 –> 00:01:37.015 In fact, one of the questions further down in my catalogue was: Tadao has a successor, his son. He’s already nominated. You…
00:01:37.382 –> 00:01:39.100 Has he? I don’t know.
00:01:39.375 –> 00:01:41.283 Is that not right?
00:01:41.958 –> 00:01:50.733 It’s a suspicion that is around, but I don’t think anything has been publicly declared.
00:01:50.733 –> 00:02:00.475 My bad! I‘ had listened to the rumours, so to speak, and taken that for granted, which would not be that unusual for that matter.
00:02:00.475 –> 00:02:07.108 No, it would be normal. It would be the normal course of events. I would expect that.
00:02:10.000 –> 00:02:17.625 Particularly if we are thinking of an institute, of an organisation, of an enterprise, which is being handed down
00:02:17.625 –> 00:02:28.625 over generations, yes, I agree. If we are thinking of a spiritual leader, or something like that, then it’s a different matter.
00:02:28.858 –> 00:02:32.083 But that’s a rabbit hole I don’t intend to go down.
00:02:32.083 –> 00:02:33.825 No, better not.
00:02:35.617 –> 00:02:45.731 But the question I had actually is: okay, if Tadao has a successor, you were the Vice President of the… Who is your successor?
00:02:46.198 –> 00:03:00.067 And the question of the Source and the succession of the Source is a relevant question for the well-being of actually the organisation.
00:03:00.067 –> 00:03:10.226 Or, to put it in other words, if that is not tended to carefully and in a nourishing kind of way,
00:03:10.410 –> 00:03:16.658 the writing is on the wall that the organisation is going to find itself in some dire straits.
00:03:17.000 –> 00:03:18.000 Yes, I don’t know.
00:03:18.267 –> 00:03:24.567 You know, basically Japanese people are not very transparent. You may have noticed that.
00:03:25.050 –> 00:03:31.057 So, there are many things I don’t know. Even though I seem to be close.
00:03:32.257 –> 00:03:37.633 But there are many things I don’t know. Many things are not talked about.
00:03:39.075 –> 00:03:41.442 They are not up for discussion.
