00:00 Guilt is useful because most of us are indeed not right.
00:03 We need guilt. We need loads of guilt.
00:05 But we need honest guilt.
00:07 What is honest guilt? That transforms us.
00:09 Not the kind of guilt that shields us.
00:11 What is dishonest guilt?
00:13 Dishonest guilt is when you say, "Oh, I accidentally made a mistake. Oh, I accidentally made a mistake.
00:17 Why did I make that mistake?"
00:19 This is dishonest guilt.
00:20 No mistake is accidental. No wrongdoing is accidental.
00:22 You are just doing what you are.
00:24 But we like to say, "Oh, it happened. I didn't do it. It just happened. You know.
00:28 It was a thing of chance. It happened randomly. Nothing happens randomly."
00:32 We want to shield ourselves by saying that I accidentally made a mistake.
00:36 Nobody accidentally makes a mistake.
00:38 The action is the actor. The deed is the doer.
00:41 If you have done something wrong, then you are wrong.
00:43 Therefore, guilt is useful.
