00:00If I'm blind, I want to get out of this hall, I'll have to ask you, which way is the exit please?
00:10And you'll tell me, and I have no option but to believe because, but what if I do have eyes?
00:18And I still keep believing what others tell me, and this one is telling me, you can go out of this room only by blasting through the roof.
00:24And there's a fire here, and I'm believing that the only way to exit is through the roof.
00:31I'm stupid, am I not? I have my eyes, I can see, I can know, why do I need to believe?
00:38What is it that you cannot know? Please tell me.
00:40What is it that you cannot even question? Please tell me.
00:44Just that the process of inquiry is long, but beautiful.
00:49So, be it the external world, be it the internal world, none are exempt from the question mark.
00:57Can't you ask yourself, just as the scientist, the experimenter proceeds in his lab,
01:03why can't you question your emotions, your intuitions, your instincts, your love, your anger, your greed?
01:11Inquiry does yield results, but it requires honesty.
01:14In absence of honesty, belief is the crutch.
