00:00In spite of being fully aware of the consequences, why do people engage in self-harming behavior?
00:07Self-harm is not merely when you pop some toxic pills or the kind of things you narrated.
00:16Somebody is indulging in violent behavior.
00:20Somebody is getting into neurotic relationships.
00:22Somebody is tolerating toxic relationships.
00:25Self-harm is not merely that.
00:27Those are just very visible expressions of self-harm.
00:33Self-harm is when you make a bad choice, thinking it is good.
00:37Self-harm is not only when you say, oh my relationship has gone awry.
00:42Self-harm is when you first of all enter that relationship.
00:45Saying, I know what to do and I'll lead my life as per my terms and conditions.
00:50Self-harm.
00:51Saying, oh I do not know what to do and I'll lead my life as per others' commands.
00:56That too is self-harm.
00:59That's the extent of the disease.
01:03Whatever we do is likely to result in self-harm.
01:07Therefore, one has to tread very cautiously.
01:11And that's where wisdom, literature comes in.
01:15That's where Vedant steps in.
01:20That's where Vedant steps in.
