00:00There was a fellow who had a lot of sheep and he would occasionally slaughter the sheep so that he could have the meat.
00:06But sheep would see that, that our sister sheep are being killed.
00:10So sometimes they would escape and since there were a large number of sheep and they were always trying to run away.
00:15So it was difficult.
00:16So what did their master do?
00:18He went to the sheep and he told the sheep,
00:21You are not sheep at all, you are individuals and only your own desire will be followed.
00:25You are not sheep, you are human beings and you have your own desire.
00:30And the sheep are fully convinced that they are not sheep at all.
00:33So while one sheep would be slaughtered, the other would laugh.
00:36They say, oh that one was a sheep.
00:37So that is the reason why she is being killed.
00:39I am not a sheep, I will never be killed.
00:41Now the sheep are willingly presenting themselves to be killed, believing that they are not sheep.
00:46There are two ways in which you are made a sheep.
00:49One is when somebody explicitly conditions you.
00:53You are being explicitly conditioned and you know that I am being conditioned.
00:57That is a very less dangerous form of conditioning because you know that you are being conditioned.
01:02The more dangerous kind of conditioning is when the conditioning gets so deep into you that you start thinking that this is my own desire and this is not conditioning.
