Transcript

00:00Life doesn't go according to your plan and there is no divine plan.

00:04First one says, my plan will work my life.

00:07The other one says, God's plan will work my life.

00:10The fact is, nobody has a plan. It's just happening.

00:13And since it is just happening, therefore, teachers like Krishna tell us,

00:17don't take it seriously. Don't take it seriously.

00:19Don't give it too much weightage.

00:21Don't lean too much on it. Don't get too attached to it.

00:23Prakriti won't listen to your attachments.

00:26Prakriti has no respect for your beliefs or feelings or emotions or whatever.

00:31Prakriti knows your feelings better than you do.

00:33Prakriti knows where your feelings are coming from.

00:36Where are they coming from? Prakriti itself.

00:38But you go to her and say, you know, these are my feelings.

00:41Kindly acknowledge and respect. Prakriti says, what?

00:43What you are calling as feelings is just my randomness in action.

00:47And what you are calling as your feelings, well, you do not exist.

00:50So what do you want me to respect? There is nothing to respect.

00:53We come, we go, just as waves rise and fall in the ocean.
