00:00I stood third in my class, class four or five and got bashed up at home.
00:10Wasn't a bad performance by any means. Third in a class of 40 or 50. Got beaten up and then
00:24I rebelled. I said, this, my sister, she never even manages a single digit rank, but happily
00:36she carries her report card, comes in, throws it away and starts rolling on the bed. And
00:47nobody utters a word to her. All the time, she is just happy. I burn the midnight oil.
00:57She keeps snoring. She comes 13th in her class. I came third. She is still happy. I have been
01:09bashed up. This won't do. My mother said, you have done far worse than her. I couldn't
01:20really grasp. Now I think I do. If you have potential and you don't live up to it, life
01:34will offer you the harshest punishment because you have failed in your one duty as a human
01:45being to materialize your potential. That's your only dharma.
