00:00Recently I read your book. Here it is written in the chapter Outer Knowledge Inner Darkness.
00:09I want to ask what exactly knowledge of the self you mean?
00:13You never say knowledge, you always say my knowledge.
00:16So between you and knowledge is this my sitting as a bridge.
00:25I know X but who knows X? That I don't know.
00:31What's the point in knowing X if you do not know who knows X?
00:35Ever examined who is the knower?
00:38This I want now to examine the entire world.
00:45That's what we call as knowledge.
00:46I want to know what is happening here. What is the composition of wood?
00:49What is there in that bottle? I want to know everything.
00:53But I take myself for granted. Therefore, I don't see any need to know the knower.
01:00But who is it that suffers? The galaxy? The meson? The boson?
01:08Who is it that suffers? The I.
01:14And if the I is so important to itself, isn't it logical to first know what is important?
01:21It's your restlessness that comes first.
01:24But education, our education is afraid of the self.
01:29It would talk of everything except the self.
01:32The self is taken for granted.
01:35And therefore, what education produces is people with a lot of knowledge.
01:44And that knowledge is consumed by an inner darkness.
