00:00At any age, before let's say 40, you can one day decide to have a baby and a few months later, the baby will pop out.

00:06Nothing in that. Or you can decide to adopt a baby. It's so simple as that.

00:10You are a person, a person with consciousness. You exist for the full expansion of your consciousness.

00:17To give full meaning to your life. And mind you, childbirth will not supply you with that meaning.

00:22It cannot. Could childbirth suffice?

00:24All the cows and the buffaloes and the lady monkeys and the she-camels, all of them would have been illuminated and fulfilled souls.

00:34Just because others are doing this, that or that has been prevalent in family or in culture or in the town you come from.

00:41There is no compulsion to follow that same trail.

00:45Never consider yourself obliged to live the way others in the past have been living or others are still living around you.

00:52No obligation, no compulsion.

00:54Life is about complete freedom. And if that complete freedom is not there, you will continue to suffer.
