00:00As young people, we want to live free, don't we?

00:02Or do you really enjoy being dominated by others?

00:05So, one form of domination is when somebody starts having a permanent seat in your mind.

00:14Do not let your competitors or friends or enemies or anybody have a seat at the center of your mind.

00:21Nobody deserves that seat.

00:22The center of your mind must be a free, clean and empty place.

00:26And that alone is called freedom.

00:29Somebody you are jealous of, so that fellow becomes the center of your thought.

00:33Then somebody you are very attracted to, that fellow too becomes the center of your thought.

00:38Both these situations are equally bad.

00:40In friendship or in enemy, in admiration or in jealousy,

00:45nobody should mean so much to you that the name, the face, the person becomes your life.

00:51That is the worst kind of slavery possible. Avoid it.
