00:00The craving, be it sugar or porn or whatever, what if that five minutes of my life will enable me
00:05to do other things which I actually need to do during the day?
00:08How can watching porn enable you to do something great in life? What kind of greatness is that?
00:15No, just to get rid of that craving.
00:17I fully appreciate where you're coming from because I come from a hostel. I was young once. I know what
00:23you're saying.
00:23But it doesn't go beyond a point. Yes, you have to complete a meaningless assignment. Right?
00:30And so you close the screen for a while and you jerk off and you return to it and you
00:35say, now I feel refreshed and now I can subject myself to two more hours of brutality.
00:40It works there. It works in that kind of condition.
00:45But why must you, first of all, subject yourself to that condition?
00:49A warrior immersed in a meaningful battle, a battle that means the life to him.
00:56Will he tell his opponent you please, you know?
00:58Let's just take five minutes each, a jerk break.
01:04Does that happen?
01:05Forget warriors. Think of Grand Slam final lasting five hours.
01:10Two mighty opponents. You have Federer, you have Nadal.
01:13Five hours and they both are young, brimming with testosterone.
01:17You think in the break they are just...
01:18Is that happening? Why is that not happening?
01:20Because their energies are channelized elsewhere.
01:26That's what life is for, to play a ruthless match, not to just keep scratching your own surface.
01:33I'm not coming from the Lokdharmic standpoint where you are declared sinner or evil or threatened with hell because you
01:41are not a brahmachari.
01:42I'm not coming from there.
01:44I'm coming from another place.
01:46I'm talking of the pity that an internal vacuum is.
01:51Why don't we have something higher in life?
