00:00Sir, you always talk of filling life with the highest work possible.

00:04I want to know what exactly is that highest work you repeatedly refer to?

00:08When we are talking of filling our lives with the highest possible,

00:13that's actually not a constructive process.

00:16That's not actually a process of filling up.

00:19That's actually a process of draining out or emptying.

00:24Empty your life of what is not high.

00:26That's what I mean.

00:27So you have to interpret my statement in negative.

00:32When I say fill yourself up with the highest,

00:35what I actually mean is drain out the lowest.

00:37Getting it?

00:38Drain out the lowest.

00:39And don't you know what is low in your life?

00:41Simple.

00:42Drain out the lowest.

00:43If fear is the lowest,

00:45my duty in life is to at least not be knocked out in the first round.

00:49Deliver a few punches.

00:51Do something.

00:52Show that you are a human being, a man of some kind.

00:55Too difficult, is it?
