00:00In your daily life, in your relationships, you can choose to be the politician or the preceptor.
00:07The politician has a purpose, an ambition.
00:10The politician wants to become something and stay there.
00:17And therefore, he will have to compromise with the truth.
00:20And if the audience is not ready to take the truth, the politician will not come up with the truth, even if he has it.
00:27I'll bring something pleasing to you, rather than something elevating.
00:31That's the politician in relationships.
00:35And then there is the preceptor in relationships.
00:38The preceptor is, or you could be the friend.
00:42The friend does not have anything at stake.
00:45The first commitment of this one, the sagely friend,
00:51is towards the truth rather than the person he or she is related to.
00:57So, this one is not going to compromise.
01:00In the short run, it would appear as if the politician does better.
01:09But in the long term, it's the preceptor that wins.
01:14It depends on you, how much love you have.
01:19If you don't have enough love, then you will choose to be a politician in a relationship.
01:25But if you have love enough, you will choose to be the prophet in a relationship.
