00:00It was Guru Nanak who said, you may try as hard as you can, but you will never get to
00:04know the
00:04mind of the liberated one. That's from the Adi Granth. You keep trying, you keep speculating
00:09and the ego has a serious urge to know what is going on in the mind of the Buddha. But
00:15you will
00:16never know what's there in the mind of the Buddha. Being who you are, how will you know the mind
00:20of
00:20the Buddha? It's a part of essential humility to not even try. That's the thing about the ego.
00:26It has very little capacity for self-observation. Instead, it wants to get into the mind of the
00:32liberated one. Instead, reflect on yourself. If you find him serious, do not judge him. Look at
00:40yourself. If you find him weeping, do not judge him. Look at the world around him. It's then not about
00:45his state. It's about your requirement. He does not bother for his state. He is beyond botheration,
00:51right? But he bothers for your requirement. So it's rather a judgment on you, not him.
