00:00The Mother Earth has many diamonds. So what if you don't have Kohidur, we have many other diamonds in the form of human beings, human intellectuals in India, artists in India, and our scientific research in India, or the scientific software in India. They are also diamonds. So I say, we have many other diamonds. Let us not get into Kohidur arguments for various practical reasons.
00:27Take my granddaughters to history museums whenever I go there, and some of our artifacts, I explain what it was. But I want to request all parents here, and grandparents here, when your children and grandchildren get holiday, don't rush to Singapore or Malaysia. Please take them. There are beautiful places in India, hidden gems in India, where they can trace their rules.
00:54You can enjoy the building, architecture, and be proud about your own country first. Okay? When you look at your country, it has enormous history, enormous architecture, buildings, paintings, everything.
01:10Introduce them in a young age to our heritage. A child will be, a child will become, you know, a child will be very proud about the roots and the country, unless the child doesn't, you know, unless you teach them what our country is, don't go to the shopping malls.
01:30Apart from that, apart from that, take them to the real place of India, and show them, that is your contribution to our country, and to bring up your children for the next, next, the next generation children should be all those things.
01:44I am very particular, and it is my request to you, reading my book, at least you will understand what it means to have, know the history of our country.
01:53I want to tell next generation children, you are one or two in the family. So whatever you want, your parents will give. You think life will be like that? No. Life will not be like that. Life is very competitive.
02:07And if somebody doesn't give you anything, I got depressed. Lot of children say, I am depressed, because I did not get a cell phone. Okay? My parents did not take me to Singapore and Malaysia. I am depressed.
02:22Please look at back and see. Many people sacrifice. So don't take life, I know, everything granted, like whatever we want, we get. No. Life gives you certain things.
02:35Certain things, certain things, you have to learn and get it. Certain things, you have to observe and get it. Certain things, even though you try, you won't get it.
02:43Like, many rivers can make a sea in life. Many plus, minus, disappointments, victories, happiness, unhappiness, together makes life. Only happiness is not possible.
02:59That's an imaginary thing. Please, parents, be aware. You can provide your children with many things, tolerance, etc.
03:09The most important thing, what you should provide to your children is resilience in life. Accept the failures. Accept the realities. And stand up and work again.
03:21And that is the, at the crux of this book is the magic of the lost hearing. Losing everything, they arise like a phoenix, come back in life.
03:31I want my grandchildren, grandchildren who are sitting here, please learn, resilience, confidence are more important than achievement.
03:41Achievement is good, but it is not all in life. Money is good, but it is not all in life. If you do not have resilience and confidence in life, hope in life, positive attitude in life, if you don't have, you cannot achieve anything.
03:58You will never be in peace. And these are my advice to youngsters through my books. And Rooney series came out of this.
04:08Today the nuclear families have come, so they don't grow up with joint families and they don't grow up with grandparents.
04:15So whatever we want to tell our grandchildren, we cannot tell everyday basis. Elders stop talking and Zainab doesn't know why.
04:25Zainab doesn't know why. Zainab doesn't know why. But they know that something is there. And when in the night they have to leave Pakistan, that time, because these are all details I got it from Rishi's father.
