00:00It seems like you have seen a lot of people who kind of are lovers of truth, but they fear to say it out loudly.
00:09Think of your practical daily life.
00:13Who do you submit to? The truth or the Lord's?
00:17Our fundamental allegiance is not to the truth. It is to the powers that be.
00:24When you have a heart, then you get a spine.
00:26When you will have such a beating heart with love for truth, then you will get a spine that does not easily bend.
00:37Picking a partner, sometimes for the entire life.
00:40No place in the world does it the way we do.
00:46Love is considered immoral, but sleeping with strangers is alright.
00:50If you can't have freedom, even in such an intimate matter, why will you ever now rebel against anything?
00:58There is a very stinking word for that.
01:00If you sell yourself off for money, we don't need to actually spell it out, but we know what we are doing.
01:07Such an intimate thing.
01:18Picking a partner, sometimes for the entire life.
01:23No place in the world does it the way we do.
01:28We literally sleep with strangers.
01:39Love is considered immoral, but sleeping with strangers is alright.
01:45Not here in Delhi, but just travel a little into the interiors and that's what is still happening.
02:0060-70% of our population.
02:05Yes, we have become progressive.
02:07So the girl and the boy get to meet on the terrace for five minutes.
02:10And then you sleep with the stranger.
02:28What does that leave you with?
02:31Does that leave you with any heart?
02:34Think of what it does
02:35to the mind, the very spirit of those two persons.
02:41They are crushed.
02:52If you can't have freedom, even in such an intimate matter,
02:57why will you ever now rebel against anything?
03:01As a woman, if you are carrying a stranger's germ in your womb for nine months,
03:11can there be a greater indignity?
03:15Somebody touches your arm
03:17and leaves a mark, a blemish.
03:20You don't like it, do you?
03:22And somebody has penetrated your body
03:24and left his seed, his cells there
03:28and now you will be carrying them
03:31and then bringing up that thing as your own baby
03:34your entire life.
03:36Is that not humiliation?
03:43Where is love?
03:44Asyadiji, in this, very interestingly,
03:55supposedly the love also blooms
03:58and the marriage prospects are also
04:00between certain branches.
04:02It's just like a business venture.
04:04So a person is in
04:05ops, granny and pediatrics.
04:07They will marry.
04:08So that's...
04:09You know, at Amdabhad,
04:11Major Sahib is here, so he'll attest.
04:13We had a very interesting episode.
04:18We have...
04:19We do have affairs galore in the campus
04:21and it's usually the top rankers
04:25that walk away with the girls.
04:27That's the way the girls decide,
04:29not the top rankers.
04:30Because everybody
04:31is out,
04:35available as an option,
04:36but only the top rankers are chosen.
04:40So we...
04:41We entered in 2001
04:44and just the year before that,
04:462000,
04:47there was this massive earthquake.
04:50You remember?
04:51Bhuj.
04:52Bhuj.
04:54So you've seen how the buildings
04:56and the doms are at I.M. Amdabad.
04:59That...
04:59Old architecture.
05:02Louis Kahn.
05:03Yes, brick work.
05:05And it's pretty old, 1960s.
05:08So one of the bricks
05:10atop a dom was loose.
05:16And the...
05:17Not one brick,
05:19two bricks.
05:19And the bricks fell
05:22because the building was shaking.
05:25One of the bricks fell on the topper
05:27and another brick fell
05:29on the topper from the other side.
05:33The bottom, that is.
05:35And then the joke in the campus was,
05:38even God does not discriminate
05:40on the basis of rank.
05:41Then why do these girls do?
05:51Even God does not discriminate
05:54on the basis of rank.
05:57The topper got hurt
05:59and equally
06:00the trailer got hurt.
06:05So why are the girls
06:06being so discriminative?
06:09But that's how it is.
06:12Where is love?
06:15You pick a man
06:16based on his
06:17earning potential
06:19or current salary
06:21or inherited wealth.
06:23Actually, there is a very
06:29stinking word for that.
06:32No?
06:33If you sell yourself off
06:34for money.
06:35Yeah?
06:36We don't need to
06:37actually spell it out
06:39but we know
06:40what we are doing.
06:44And same thing applies to
06:45the men who
06:47sell off
06:48their brains and bronze
06:50for money.
06:53The brain is as much
06:58as body
06:58as any other part, right?
07:00If
07:00you are saying
07:03I am selling
07:04my brain
07:05to the highest bidder
07:07to the topmost recruiter
07:09how is that
07:11not prostitution?
07:14I am asking.
07:16Wherever there is
07:17a relationship
07:18that does not
07:18involve love
07:19what else do you call it?
07:21what else
07:24do you call it?
07:25It's an exchange
07:26barter
07:26and when
07:29that is happening
07:30there is no spirit here
07:32and then
07:33you cannot do
07:34great things
07:35and then that
07:35nation
07:36can never
07:38be great.
07:43And I repeat
07:44that's
07:45such a
07:48sorry thing
07:49because our
07:50fundamental culture
07:51is of freedom.
07:54The highest
07:55virtue
07:56is mukti
07:57when you go
07:58to the
07:59Shardarshan.
08:00The highest
08:01virtue
08:01is freedom
08:02mukti
08:03liberation.
08:05And yet
08:06we became
08:07a nation
08:07of boot
08:08lickers.
08:13Was there
08:15a colony
08:15as big
08:16as India
08:18ever?
08:20Ever?
08:21No?
08:25I have been
08:26a student
08:26of the
08:27Second World War
08:28and there
08:32are just
08:32so many
08:33aspects
08:33and micro
08:34details
08:34related to it
08:35I enjoy
08:35reading.
08:37One of the
08:38things I was
08:38recently going
08:39into was
08:40Hitler's
08:40attitude
08:41towards India.
08:44Hitler said
08:45you know
08:46Hitler loved
08:47the Brits
08:47in the sense
08:48that they
08:48are
08:49pure Aryans.
08:52He said
08:53India deserves
08:53to be ruled
08:54by the Brits
08:54and when the
08:56Brits are
08:56gone
08:56then the
08:59Germans will
08:59take over.
09:01He looked
09:02down upon
09:03India
09:03and that's
09:04why the
09:04alliance
09:05between
09:05Hitler
09:05and
09:05Subhash
09:06Chandra
09:06boss
09:06was doomed
09:07to collapse.
09:13These are
09:13very inferior
09:14people.
09:15Yes,
09:16they had
09:16an Aryan
09:17past
09:17but look
09:18at them
09:19now.
09:19They are
09:20incapable
09:20of self-rule.
09:23He said
09:24it is fine
09:24if the Brits
09:25are ruling
09:25them.
09:27They should
09:27not be
09:27independent
09:28and once
09:28the Brits
09:29are defeated
09:30then the
09:31Germans
09:31will rule
09:32them.
09:32That's
09:33what he
09:33intended.
09:33He didn't
09:37intend
09:37India's
09:39freedom.
09:40No.
09:42He said
09:42once Russia
09:43has conquered
09:44the USSR
09:45then the
09:47Germans
09:47will cross
09:48the
09:48Caucasus,
09:51the Caucasian
09:53mountains,
09:56join the
09:57Japanese,
09:58link up
09:59with the
09:59Japanese
09:59from the
10:00East
10:00and then
10:02divide
10:02India
10:02into two
10:03parts.
10:05Two spheres
10:06of influence,
10:06German and
10:07Japanese.
10:13The reason
10:13was simple.
10:15Such a,
10:18I mean,
10:1840 crore people
10:19we were there
10:20even at the
10:21time of World
10:21War II.
10:22it was
10:23inconceivable
10:24for anybody
10:26outside India
10:27to imagine
10:28how such
10:30a large
10:31number of
10:31people can
10:32be controlled
10:33by those
10:33coming from
10:34tiny isles
10:35northwest of
10:40continental
10:40Europe.
10:45Can you
10:46imagine?
10:46and when
10:48they first
10:49came here,
10:51think of
10:52the 16th
10:53and 17th
10:53centuries
10:53when the
10:54Europeans
10:55were first
10:55coming here,
10:56they didn't
10:57have engines
10:57really,
10:59no steam
11:01power,
11:01yet they
11:02travelled all
11:03the way from
11:03there.
11:04Think of
11:04how they
11:04would be
11:05travelling
11:05first of
11:05all.
11:06They
11:06travelled
11:07and they
11:07still
11:07conquered.
11:09The
11:09reason is
11:10just one,
11:11this.
11:12The Brits
11:13didn't
11:13conquer us.
11:15We did
11:15this.
11:17This
11:18has
11:18defeated
11:18us.
11:24Can
11:24you let
11:25this
11:25sink in?
11:27Is it
11:28believable?
11:30With
11:30no source
11:31of energy,
11:32forget
11:32nuclear
11:33power or
11:34electric
11:35power or
11:35fossil fuel,
11:37they didn't
11:37even have
11:38steam
11:38engines.
11:41And
11:41they were
11:41coming all
11:42the way
11:42from their
11:43cape of
11:43good hope
11:44around
11:44and they
11:47come here
11:47and such
11:49a tiny
11:51nation.
11:54Such a
11:55tiny
11:55nation.
12:02But they
12:03were innovative,
12:03they were
12:04creative and
12:04they were
12:05daring.
12:05the title
12:16is very
12:17powerful
12:17truth
12:18without
12:19biology.
12:20So it
12:21seems like
12:21you have
12:22seen a lot
12:23of people
12:24who kind
12:27of are
12:27lovers of
12:28truth,
12:29but they
12:30fear to
12:31say it
12:31out loudly
12:32and they
12:35have a
12:36lot of
12:37shaking
12:37inside
12:38them
12:38while
12:39communicating
12:41this truth
12:42with others.
12:44So
12:44why
12:46didn't
12:46people
12:47have
12:49this
12:49apology
12:49while
12:50communicating
12:52this truth
12:53to someone?
12:55I
12:55guess it
12:57is our
12:58period,
12:59our
13:00reason
13:02you
13:03must
13:03link
13:04to what
13:06we were
13:06saying
13:06just
13:07now.
13:08Our
13:09fundamental
13:10elegance
13:11is not
13:14to the
13:14truth.
13:16It is
13:16to the
13:17powers
13:17that be.
13:20Think
13:21of
13:21your
13:22practical
13:23daily
13:23life.
13:25Who do
13:25you submit
13:25to?
13:26The
13:27truth
13:27or the
13:28lords?
13:30Please.
13:32The
13:33truth
13:33or the
13:33lords?
13:34That's
13:35the
13:35thing.
13:37And
13:37that's
13:37why
13:38when you
13:38side
13:39with
13:39the
13:39truth,
13:40when you
13:42fall in
13:43love with
13:43the
13:43truth,
13:44you have
13:44to
13:44apologize
13:45to the
13:45lords.
13:53One
13:53truth,
13:54one
13:54master,
13:55one
13:56center,
13:56one
13:57destiny,
13:58that's
13:58Vedant.
14:01Right?
14:04Satya,
14:05Atma,
14:05Brahma,
14:06one,
14:06all one,
14:07and nothing
14:07but one.
14:11Not
14:12even one,
14:13ad
14:13dwayat.
14:15Forget about
14:16two,
14:16not even
14:17one.
14:18That
14:19kind of
14:20pointed
14:20surrender
14:21is what
14:21our
14:22sages
14:22taught us.
14:23instead of
14:26surrendering to
14:26that one
14:27truth,
14:28we have
14:28been told
14:29to bow
14:30down to
14:30several
14:30lords.
14:33That's
14:33why when
14:33it comes
14:34to the
14:34truth,
14:34we are
14:35apologetic.
14:36We say,
14:36sorry,
14:37you know,
14:38yeah,
14:39the lord
14:39does not
14:40like it,
14:40but may
14:41I please
14:41submit that
14:42you know,
14:43if you
14:44allow me,
14:45if you
14:45permit,
14:46to your
14:46pleasure.
14:47Seen all
14:48these things?
14:49Seen how
14:50we teach
14:51our kids to
14:51write applications?
14:52Humbly I
14:53beg to
14:53submit that
14:54today I
14:55have ache
14:55in my
14:56tooth.
14:57Humbly I
14:57beg to
14:58submit.
14:59If that
15:00is the
15:00truth,
15:01why are
15:01you begging?
15:03State the
15:04fact.
15:07What is
15:08this?
15:08Humbly I
15:09beg to
15:09survey.
15:14Would the
15:15lord and
15:16the master
15:16accept
15:19my
15:19submission
15:23at his
15:24feet?
15:26Why?
15:29If you
15:29are lying
15:30about your
15:31toothache,
15:31then don't
15:32write that.
15:34Tear away
15:34that application.
15:36And if you
15:36are stating
15:37the fact,
15:37if the
15:38toothache
15:38is real,
15:40why the
15:40hell are
15:42you groveling?
15:43Why are
15:44you rolling
15:45in the
15:45mud?
15:45Why?
15:45Why are
15:46you rolling
15:47drool,
15:50drool,
15:51drool.
15:51That's
15:52become our
15:52culture.
15:59If you
16:00are in
16:00the
16:00falls,
16:02you feel
16:03secure
16:04because you
16:04are with
16:04the
16:04majority.
16:06Right?
16:07Right?
16:08And when
16:09you know
16:09you are
16:11in the
16:11truth,
16:12that's
16:12when you
16:12experience
16:13fear.
16:13Because the
16:14truth is
16:14always a
16:15minority,
16:16at least
16:16in our
16:17society.
16:19Not just
16:20a minority,
16:21a very
16:21vulnerable
16:21minority.
16:24A very
16:25hated
16:25minority.
16:30And so
16:31you keep
16:31begging for
16:32forgiveness.
16:33No,
16:34no,
16:34no.
16:34I
16:34committed
16:36the
16:36gravest
16:36sin of
16:37uttering
16:38the
16:38truth.
16:40Forget about
16:41uttering it.
16:42I should
16:43have never
16:43known it
16:44in the
16:44first place.
16:45all boils
16:52down to
16:53the
16:53philosophy
16:53you are
16:54following.
16:57If your
16:57philosophy
16:58tells you
16:59to submit
17:00and surrender
17:01to several
17:01masters,
17:03this,
17:04this,
17:04this,
17:04this,
17:04that,
17:05there is a
17:05social authority,
17:06there is a
17:06political authority,
17:07there is a
17:07familial authority,
17:07there is an
17:09institutional
17:09authority,
17:10there is a
17:10religious authority,
17:12and on the
17:12skies there are
17:13several
17:13authorities.
17:14if that
17:16becomes your
17:16culture,
17:17you will
17:17never be a
17:18truthful person,
17:19because in
17:20truth there is
17:20no authority
17:21but the
17:21truth.
17:26So how do I
17:27bow down to
17:28several masters,
17:29several lords,
17:30worldly or
17:31otherworldly?
17:32I don't care for
17:33anything but the
17:34truth.
17:36And that's why,
17:36otherwise the name
17:37of the book is
17:38just truth.
17:39But I had to
17:40say truth without
17:41apology because we
17:42indeed are
17:42apologetic.
17:52Those who
17:53vellow in lies,
17:56you will find
17:57them walking,
17:58living,
17:59eating,
17:59breathing
18:00comfortably and
18:01they'll be
18:02lauded on public
18:04platforms and
18:06the man of
18:07truth,
18:08he'll be
18:09hated,
18:09ostracized
18:10and left
18:15alone,
18:16as you said.
18:20And all
18:20that is fine.
18:23Hate me,
18:24expel me,
18:24ostracize me.
18:27All that is
18:28something you
18:29can do.
18:29but I won't
18:31apologize because
18:32that's something
18:33I can do.
18:36You do what
18:37you can,
18:38but you won't
18:40get an apology
18:41out of me.
18:51Machari ji,
18:52men,
18:53our love
18:53or truth
18:54will be
18:55so much
18:56high that
18:57we will not
18:58care for
18:58anything else.
19:00Whether
19:00whole world
19:01is standing
19:02against us
19:03and we
19:03are not
19:04hearing.
19:04When you
19:05have a heart,
19:05then you
19:06get a spine.
19:08When you
19:09will have
19:09such a beating
19:10heart
19:11with love
19:12for truth,
19:13then you
19:14will get
19:14a spine
19:15that does
19:16not easily
19:17bend in
19:18front of
19:19religious,
19:20social,
19:20political
19:21authority.
19:29and you
19:30will have
19:31a spine
19:31and you
19:32will have
19:33to
19:34see you
19:35in the
19:36future.
19:36And you
19:36will have
19:37to
19:37see you
