00:00If your work is not lovable, life won't be livable.
00:03If I don't find happiness or excitement in whatever I do,
00:09so it is maturity or some kind of mental illness.
00:14No work can bring you joy or bliss or happiness.
00:19No.
00:20Work is a product.
00:23It's a choice.
00:25You don't just randomly plunge yourself in work.
00:28Work is chosen, is it not?
00:31You have chosen to be on the stage.
00:33You have chosen to be in this institution.
00:36You choose to accept a job offer.
00:38Right? It's a choice.
00:41Sometimes you create your own work
00:43because nobody is offering it to you.
00:46So you create it for yourself.
00:47It's a choice. It's creativity.
00:50You must have it within you
00:52to make the right choice.
00:55Otherwise, how do people choose their work?

01:09You are born a girl,
01:11so you will be a housewife.
01:12That's your work.
01:13Is any self-awareness needed?
01:17What choice is there?
01:20When work arises as an expression of your deepest clarity,
01:25only then can there be love.
01:28But for most of us, work is livelihood.
01:32Real work is when you know who really are.
01:36I know who I am.
01:38I am the suffering ego.
01:39I am the conditioned self.
01:41Therefore, I need to take up something
01:43that challenges my bondages
01:46and can raise me
01:48to the highest position
01:49of freedom and fearlessness.
01:51That is real work.
