00:00Think of the concrete roads. And as you urbanize, the whole thing becomes even more concretized.

00:09What will the poor animal do? Where will it live? Where will it sleep?

00:16But very irresponsibly we build cities where strays can breed so much and then we want to act pious by feeding them.

00:29Yes, obviously do feed them. If I find a starving animal, obviously I will feed it.

00:38But that does not absolve me of my bigger responsibility to do something about the root of the problem.

00:49Obviously, if you find a dog shivering in the cold, do offer it some refuge.

01:00But don't take that as the end of your responsibility. All external problems start from man's mind.

01:15And at the centre of the man's mind is the ego. The mistaken ego, the deluded ego, is the cause of all inner and outer problems.

01:30Not just mental problems but also material problems. They all come from the ego.

01:36And therefore if you want to take care of those problems, if you want to honestly address the problems, you will have to go within.

01:47But going within is hazardous. So what do we do? Some little act of this that.

02:00bottles and papacy.

02:01You can't fit too? That you don't have to cry.

02:15That you might just say, that you will not have to go within.
