00:00:00.140 --> 00:00:05.940
MUFASA: Look Simba, everything the light touches is our kingdom.

00:00:05.940 --> 00:00:07.330
SIMBA: Wow.

00:00:07.330 --> 00:00:12.840
MUFASA: A king's time as ruler rises and falls like the sun.

00:00:12.840 --> 00:00:17.720
One day, Simba, the sun will set on my time here

00:00:17.720 --> 00:00:20.665
and will rise with you as the new king.

00:00:20.665 --> 00:00:22.235
SIMBA: And this will all be mine?

00:00:22.235 --> 00:00:23.705
MUFASA: Everything.

00:00:23.705 --> 00:00:26.395
SIMBA: Everything, the light touches.

00:00:26.395 --> 00:00:28.800
What about that shadowy place?

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:30.945
MUFASA: That's beyond our borders.

00:00:30.945 --> 00:00:32.415
You must never go there Simba.

00:00:32.415 --> 00:00:34.400
SIMBA: But I thought a king can do whatever he want.

00:00:34.400 --> 00:00:38.225
MUFASA: Oh, there's more to being king than getting your way all the time.

00:00:38.225 --> 00:00:39.305
SIMBA: There's more?

00:00:39.305 --> 00:00:48.160
MUFASA: [LAUGHTER] Simba. Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance.

00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:52.040
As king, you need to understand that balance and respect

00:00:52.040 --> 00:00:56.315
all the creatures from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope.

00:00:56.315 --> 00:00:58.200
SIMBA: But, Dad, don't we eat the antelope?

00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:00.680
MUFASA: Yes Simba, but let me explain.

00:01:00.680 --> 00:01:06.390
When we die, our bodies become the grass and the antelope eat the grass,

00:01:06.390 --> 00:01:12.680
and so we are all connected in the great circle of life.
