00:00Some people are born rich, some people are born very poor.
00:03So some people say that it is due to past karmas.
00:07But is that pure luck or what do you comment?
00:10You never know.
00:11You will attribute causality to something that is entirely random.
00:16Like the throw of a dice.
00:18You are attributing causality to something which is not causal at all.
00:24It is random.
00:25But you say, if somebody was born with a silver spoon,
00:29surely it is because of his great deeds in the past birth.
00:33No sir, it is random.
00:35Secondly, Prakriti has zero respect for your richness or poverty.
00:44So it is from your own vantage point that you say
00:48that somebody born in a rich family is fortunate.
00:51For existence, richness and poverty are exactly the same.
00:56For existence, somebody born with a disease is fulfilling much the same purpose as somebody born healthy.
01:02So stop attributing reasons to that which has no reason at all.
01:08Don't you know?
01:09I mean, who can predict?
01:11What the throw of a coin or throw of a dice would result in?
01:15Who can predict that?
01:16Similarly, if your kid is born with a disorder,
01:21that may have a reason.
01:22Fine, during pregnancy you did something stupid.
01:24That might be a reason.
01:25But often there is no reason.
01:28Often there is just no reason.
