00:00The whole can have no desire. Prakrati acting on Prakrati itself can have no desire. Moon
00:10causing the tides can have no desire. And remember when we say the moon is causing the tides,
00:18it is actually the whole causing the whole. Prakrati through the moon is acting on Prakrati
00:25in the form of waves. That is the whole acting on the whole. That is how action happens in
00:31Prakrati. But when it comes to the human being, there exists a self-certified, self-referential
00:44false inner actor. Most of our actions are mediated by and distorted by the inner agency
00:55called the ego, ahankar. And the ego is bound to be desirous because its fundamental definition
01:02is I am but I am incomplete. So any action arising from the ego is desirous action. The entire
01:11universe has a nice harmony. What will the ego do? Disrupt it.
01:19The earth, the soil, the sun, the wind, the water table, they all know how tall the tree
01:30must rise. What will the ego do? It will clip it into a bonsai. The ego is a disruptor of
01:38natural cause-effect cycle. The ego does not allow the whole to act on the whole wherever
01:47it can interfere. For the total to exist, something must be missing. What must be missing? The ego.
