00:00You are taught how airplanes work, but you don't know how you work.
00:04Do you know how your mind works? You don't know that, right?
00:07If I ask you why do you desire for such a thing, you won't be able to tell.
00:10Because you don't know your inner mechanics.
00:12And that's what the formal education system lacks in.
00:16You require both these things.
00:18Knowledge of how the world functions, how politics functions, how economics functions,
00:23what's there in your constitution. Yes, you must know that.
00:26You must know why, for example, the lizard doesn't drop off from the wall.
00:31You must know that, yes.
00:32But you must also know why you feel like showing off.
00:35Why you feel disappointed when somebody doesn't praise you.
00:38These are very important questions, are they not?
00:40Are you not important?
00:41If you are important, then education of the self is important.
00:44And if you don't have education of the self, then you will be a very educated person
00:48when it comes to all this, but very, very illiterate within.
00:53If you are uneducated within, if you don't know what darkness pervades your insides,
00:58but you have a lot of power, economic power, technological power, military power,
01:04all those things you have, then you just finish off the earth itself as we are doing today.
