00:00Trishikesh was thoroughly jammed.
00:03Even two kilometers would take 40 minutes.
00:10What gave them this purpose?
00:13To leave their place and come over to this place.
00:17How come all of them have a shared purpose?
00:20How is that possible?
00:22Where do they come from?
00:23I'm not the only one having a purpose.
00:25We all have purposes, so you tell me.
00:27It's about life.
00:28Is it through the external influences of the society?
00:32Somebody says, this is what is right for you.
00:34Do this, do that.
00:35And that you absorb as your purpose.
00:37How does that sound to you as medical students?
00:42There is an inner condition, but there has been no diagnosis at all.
00:46We admit the prescriptions and start calling them my purpose.
00:50Where is this purpose coming from?
00:52We want to have just some kind of intellectual discussion
00:55on the right purpose, right direction, the right thing to live for.
01:00When one stops taking all the wrong stuff he has been taking,
01:04what's the next step then?
01:06Shouldn't you first ask?
01:08That should be the first thing to investigate.
01:11You said that nothing is mine.
01:14What exactly is mine?
01:16Okay, let's play again.
01:17First of all, you'll tell me.
01:21Difficult question, or dangerous rather.
01:24Why must there be that inner need to add something to the one called I?
01:30I don't carry an identity.
01:32And that's what enables me to know clearly and know with freedom.
01:38That's who I am.
01:39And that, if needed, I'll call as...
01:48Achare Ji, the purpose of life is not basically what we are often told.
01:53To do something for the humanity or do something purposeful.
01:57People should know you.
01:58People should know your work.
01:59It's basically everything we do in our daily lives.
02:03Our old day course.
02:07You are assuming that one kind of purpose is better than the other kind of purpose.
02:13We might come to that.
02:15But before that, we need to be done with.
02:18Huh?
02:20Where do the usual purposes come from?
02:27Where do they come from?
02:29Where do they come from?
02:30You tell me, because I'm not the only one having a purpose.
02:34We all have purposes.
02:35So you tell me.
02:36It's about life.
02:39Is it through the external influences of the society,
02:42that what others are doing, maybe I feel that I might fit into the society
02:46if I follow the same path?
02:50Do this.
02:51This is what is right for you.
02:53Do this.
02:54This is what is right for you.
02:57And then that becomes inner.
03:00The inner aspiration thing you said.
03:02That becomes inner.
03:06So you start with the existence.
03:08There is somebody sitting within who is very restless.
03:12Very restless.
03:13Right?
03:15And the restlessness starts with the body.
03:18The body is there.
03:20And along with the body is born the restlessness.
03:24No?
03:26And then from outside the body, you hear these voices.
03:33The body is the instrument of hearing.
03:37Somebody says, this is what is right for you.
03:40This is what is right for you.
03:41Do this.
03:42Do that.
03:43And that you absorb as your purpose.
03:47Purpose.
03:48Right?
03:49This is what I want to do.
03:50This is what I want to do.
03:53Without asking.
03:58What is this thing called the restlessness?
04:01I do not know the disease, the ailment.
04:05There has been no diagnosis.
04:08But there are thousands of prescriptions.
04:12How does that sound to you as medical students?
04:18Hmm?
04:19There is an inner condition.
04:21There is an inner condition definitely.
04:24But there has been no diagnosis at all.
04:28Because the condition is so common, so common that it is taken as existential.
04:34It is taken as mandatory.
04:37It is taken as inevitable.
04:40It is taken as life itself.
04:44Right?
04:45So you don't even call it a condition.
04:46You normalize it.
04:48You say this is what we call as life.
04:50Everybody is restless.
04:51Everybody is dissatisfied.
04:52Everybody feels incomplete.
04:53Everybody feels lonely.
04:54What is the need for any kind of diagnosis?
04:57Everybody is sick.
04:59Then sickness becomes synonym for health.
05:03If everybody is sick, you do not call that sickness anymore.
05:06Right?
05:07So everybody feels that void within.
05:10And it is not diagnosed.
05:12But it is experienced.
05:14It is experienced.
05:16And how is it experienced?
05:19As a constant inner tension.
05:21As fear.
05:24As loneliness.
05:25As anxiety.
05:27As hope.
05:29Right?
05:30As attractions toward anything known or unknown or whatever.
05:36It is experienced.
05:38It is experienced.
05:38Then you ask for prescriptions.
05:40You know, I am not feeling all that well within.
05:44What to do?
05:46The first one comes and prescribes you a purpose.
05:49The other one comes and prescribes you another thing.
05:52And another thing.
05:52Another thing.
05:53Another thing.
05:54And that is the way it keeps rolling.
05:57Hmm?
05:57And without any scrutiny.
06:00We admit the prescriptions and start calling them.
06:04My purpose.
06:05My purpose.
06:07My purpose.
06:08Just as the inner restlessness was not examined.
06:11Even the prescription is not examined.
06:15And that is how this little thing called life plays out.
06:22Hmm?
06:23Now what do you want to do?
06:27End it at this?
06:28And say, yeah, fine.
06:29Since it is normal, so let it be?
06:32Or as young and intelligent people, do you want it to be better?
06:38Do you want more from life?
06:41The decision you have to make?
06:45So the goal is to first ask that, where is this purpose coming from?
06:50Yes, obviously.
06:51Because before we ask what is the right purpose?
06:55Shouldn't we first question the purposes we already hold?
07:01Hmm?
07:03It's like you are already travelling in one direction at supersonic speed.
07:11Investing yourself, burning the fuel of life.
07:15Right?
07:16Putting everything that you have in that direction.
07:20Right?
07:22And then, already travelling so fast in that direction, already quite confident of your motive and your direction.
07:31You want to discuss what is the right direction to take?
07:36What is the right direction to take?
07:37But sir, you are already travelling.
07:39You are already committed to one particular direction.
07:42Shouldn't you first ask, is this direction right?
07:47No?
07:48That should be the first thing to investigate.
07:51But remaining committed to the beliefs we have, to the directions we have,
07:58already remaining committed to that,
08:00we want to have just some kind of intellectual discussion,
08:05on the right purpose, right direction, the right thing to live for.
08:11Right?
08:12Inside, there is no vacancy.
08:16Inside, we already have a lot of convictions, a lot of beliefs.
08:23They need to be examined first.
08:24Before we ask, what is right for me out there?
08:33What more is possible?
08:36Is there anything new that can happen?
08:39Before asking any of this,
08:40should we not first ask,
08:43what about all the old stuff that I have accumulated inside,
08:47and am living by?
08:49You know?
08:50There is so much here already,
08:53and within everybody.
08:56Shouldn't that be first put under the lens,
09:00and examined?
09:02Diagnosis comes first, right?
09:04Before anything comes the diagnosis.
09:07So that's how one starts.
09:10Where did I get my pre-existing purposes from?
09:15Hmm?
09:16My sense of self, my identity,
09:19my idea of right and wrong,
09:22my values,
09:23where have they come from?
09:25Is it honest of me,
09:27to attach my-ness,
09:31M-Y-N-E-S-S,
09:32to attach my-ness with any of them?
09:35Are my values mine?
09:37No?
09:39Are my beliefs mine?
09:40Are my desires mine?
09:43I'm just asking.
09:44And if they are not,
09:46where is the vacancy
09:48for anything new to emerge?
09:51First of all, that vacancy needs to be created.
09:54No?
09:56Somebody comes to you,
09:57and let's say,
09:59he has already been to a quack.
10:03Right?
10:03And the quack has prescribed him all kinds of nonsense.
10:08And he has been ingesting that.
10:11Right?
10:12And the result is that he has grown doubly sick.
10:16Right?
10:17What's the first thing that you do as a doctor?
10:22Stop taking whatever you are taking.
10:26Stop this.
10:27Now get these tests done.
10:29So that we can start with?
10:32A new treatment plan.
10:34No?
10:36But what if he insists?
10:38No, this is something I'm committed to.
10:42This is something I'm just not going to leave.
10:46But you please tell me some other new route,
10:49a fresh map towards health.
10:51What would you say?
10:54What would you say?
10:56Not possible.
10:57No hope for you.
10:58No hope for you.
11:00If you are already committed
11:02to whatever you have been randomly consuming,
11:05no hope for you.
11:07So should we not first, you know,
11:10put that on the table
11:12and examine it.
11:15What have I consumed?
11:19And whether there was any need to consume.
11:23That's a good question to ask.
11:25It's a strange question, but it must be asked.
11:27I have taken in so much.
11:30Was it even needed?
11:32We are not talking of physical ingestion.
11:34We are talking of the mental stuff that we have absorbed.
11:43And when one stops taking all the wrong stuff he has been taking,
11:49what's the next step then?
11:51We can't go to the next step because you haven't stopped taking.
11:54You see, who is the one who is so fond of taking in things from here and there?
12:04Who is the one?
12:07A feeling of incompleteness.
12:10A feeling of unworthiness.
12:12You know, I am not alright.
12:15So I need to add something to myself.
12:18Or I need to correct myself.
12:21I need to become somebody.
12:23I need to be better.
12:25Right?
12:26And if that is there, how can you reject what the quacks recommend you?
12:34The quacks don't come first.
12:37The demand comes first.
12:39The quacks simply supply something that meets the demand.
12:45Right?
12:46And the demand is physical.
12:50The demand takes birth with the body.
12:53Though the demand is not physical, in the same sense as the need for food is physical.
13:02When you say food is a physical demand, then your system demands food.
13:09And the system gets food and the system is satisfied for a while.
13:12Right?
13:14When we say the demand for psychological satisfaction is physical, what we mean is that it is born with the
13:22physical body.
13:23It is born with the physical body.
13:25But does anything physical, like food, satisfy it?
13:33Is it satisfied?
13:36When you are hungry and you eat, a point comes when you say, I don't want to eat anymore.
13:41You are done.
13:43But is that also the nature of the inner incompleteness?
13:50If it is always empty, then quacks will always succeed.
13:58Don't blame the supply.
14:00The demand is so overwhelming.
14:03It's like a vacuum that sucks in everything around.
14:09And once that thing goes in, it becomes mine.
14:15The difference between outer and inner is lost.
14:19They become equal.
14:21Equal.
14:22They become the same.
14:24And this is called identification.
14:26Identification.
14:27What is an identity?
14:30A equals B.
14:32So, when you say A, you might have as well said B.
14:38They are identical.
14:40There is no difference between the two.
14:42The same thing happens inside us.
14:45The external stuff has gone in and the one who took it in has forgotten that it is external.
14:54Now, this is identification.
14:57The external becomes equal to the internal.
15:03And now you are identified.
15:05Now you are identified.
15:05You say, this is me.
15:07I want to become this.
15:09I want to earn so much.
15:12This is my religion.
15:16These are my beliefs.
15:18That's my hope.
15:20My dreams.
15:21My desires.
15:24This is the food I love so much.
15:30The external has become internal.
15:34No problem with that.
15:36Provided the external satisfies the internal.
15:41Identification.
15:43Might be even said to have succeeded.
15:50But that's not the experience.
15:52Why is it?
15:53We are all so full of beliefs.
15:56We all hold a big inner structure.
16:03But does it give you freedom from dissatisfaction?
16:09It does not.
16:11So that identification is not succeeding.
16:15Or is it?
16:17No, it's not succeeding, but sustaining.
16:24It's not succeeding, but still it's prevailing.
16:30That identification remains in spite of its very obvious failure.
16:37You gave me something to live by.
16:39You gave me a set of values, right?
16:43You is whatever, wherever we took it from.
16:45You gave me all that.
16:48And in my ignorance, I accepted it.
16:51Not only did I accept it, I became identified with it.
16:55Fine, fine.
16:57So good so far.
16:58But what is that identification giving me?
17:01I am still restless.
17:03My eyes still carry fear.
17:07I still look towards the future.
17:10And feel uncertain and insecure.
17:13That's the experience I have.
17:17So what then is the worth of all this that I am carrying within?
17:22If this that I am carrying within gives me this quality of inner experience,
17:29should I still continue carrying it?
17:32Should I sustain the inner architecture?
17:38Or rather demolish it?
17:42Difficult question.
17:44Difficult question.
17:44Or dangerous rather.
17:45Or dangerous rather.
17:54And yet, still very loyal to the inner stuff.
18:03Very loyal.
18:06Very determined to protect it.
18:09No, don't question my values.
18:10You are hurting me.
18:14Who are you to tell me to doubt my dreams, my aspirations?
18:19Who are you to tell me?
18:20They are all mine.
18:22Now this is identification.
18:26It's a false identity.
18:27A is not really equal to B.
18:30But in ignorance, the difference has been overlooked.
18:34The difference has been overlooked.
18:36And the consequences, too, are not being taken seriously.
18:43Probably a lack of love towards oneself.
18:46Because I am the one bearing the consequences.
18:48And yet I am not really examining where the discomfort is coming from.
18:58Thank you so much.
19:01I had a doubt.
19:03You said that nothing is mine.
19:05My beliefs are not mine.
19:06My hopes are not mine.
19:07So what exactly is mine?
19:10Like two people who are conditioned in the same environment.
19:13They learn the same values.
19:15They have the same beliefs.
19:16They have the same hopes.
19:17So how I am different from that person who is conditioned the same?
19:22What makes me different if everything is the same?
19:25Okay, let's play a game.
19:27First of all, you will tell me what is the hidden assumption in your question?
19:34That we both are conditioned the same.
19:36You will have to go deeper than that.
19:41Deeper than that.
19:43Though very, very obvious.
19:44By deeper, I don't mean hidden.
19:47That we two are different.
19:53The question is, if that's not mine, if that's not mine, if that's not mine, all of that is external.
20:01What exactly is mine?
20:02And I am asking, what's the hidden assumption here?
20:07That something is mine.
20:09A little deeper than that.
20:17That there is somebody here in the first place.
20:28What belongs to him presupposes that he exists.
20:39Yes.
20:40But that looks so obvious, no?
20:41But I do exist, don't I?
20:44I am just asking you, sir, what is mine?
20:47What is mine?
20:50But behind that is a mammoth assumption.
20:54I am somebody.
20:55Now just tell me, what is rightfully mine?
21:02Just tell me, what is it that I have not borrowed or absorbed from the world?
21:06I don't want to question whether I exist at all.
21:13Why, why does this, why must this I am-ness really exist?
21:26Why is there such, okay, putting it differently, why is there such a pressing need to have anything as yours?
21:37This question arises from a need, does it not?
21:40Okay, fine, this belongs to him, this belongs to her, this belongs to him, and this belongs to her.
21:49Right?
21:51Why can't I simply say all this belongs to them?
21:55After this, why must there remain the question, now what is mine?
22:01There is a need.
22:03There is a need.
22:04I feel vacant.
22:06I feel hollow.
22:08So I want to ask, if everything belongs to somebody else, what am I left with?
22:13What is mine?
22:15Why must that need exist?
22:20Because we want to be different from others.
22:24Why must that need exist?
22:27For our own identity, that we exist, I am here, recognize me.
22:33No, but the body is there, irrespective of adding anything to it, right?
22:40And what you want to add is not physical at all.
22:44What you want to add is psychological.
22:46Why must there be that inner need to add something to the one called I?
22:54Why must that need exist?
22:58Obviously, the body wants to add something to itself, which is all very fine.
23:02The body is a machine of nature, and the body will say, give me food, give me clothes, give me
23:07medicine, which is fine, fine.
23:10But we are not talking of food and medicine and clothes right now, or housing right now.
23:14We are talking of values, beliefs, dreams, hopes, fears.
23:18We are talking of dogmas, such things.
23:21Why must there be a need to have any of these as yours?
23:31And if that need exists, it will act like a suction pump.
23:36So, you will reject what he gave you and what I gave you, and in rejecting what the two of
23:43us gave you, you will then absorb what two others gave you.
23:49So, this will be simply replacement, substitution, not freedom.
23:56Why must there be anything called yours?
24:01Why? Why can't there be total freedom from inner ownership?
24:08Get into that.
24:09And won't that freedom be nice?
24:13Why must you carry stuff here?
24:18And you know, when you don't carry anything, then you have something wonderful with you, that you can call as
24:29discretion.
24:31The ability to know.
24:36And if you insist on having something for yourself,
24:40Sir, please give me at least one thing that I can call as myself, my own.
24:47Please, if everything belongs to somebody else, let me have at least one thing that I can call as my
24:54own.
24:56Let that one thing be your ability to know.
25:00Your ability to know.
25:03Discretion.
25:05I don't own, but I can see.
25:10I don't own, but I can see.
25:13If at all something is to be called as mine, let this be mine.
25:20Though even this is not really mandatory.
25:25But because the inner one then starts screaming,
25:29Give me at least one thing to live by.
25:31Say, this is your one thing.
25:33Pure intelligence.
25:36Pure intelligence.
25:40The faculty to know, see.
25:46See with clarity.
25:48Lucidity.
25:49That's mine.
25:50That's who I am.
25:52So, the classical texts would put it this way.
25:58Both ho aham.
25:59Who am I?
26:01Knowing itself.
26:05Understanding itself.
26:07Not ownership.
26:08Not carriership.
26:14Not the one who possesses.
26:17Not the one who identifies.
26:20But simply the one who knows without filters.
26:29Knowing without being.
26:33Knowing without filters.
26:37Knowing without any identity.
26:40I'm not anybody.
26:42Knowing without being.
26:44I'm nobody.
26:46I don't carry an identity.
26:48And that's what enables me to know clearly and know with freedom.
26:53That's who I am.
26:55Not bound.
26:56Not fettered.
26:58Not attached.
27:00Pre-absolutely therefore to know.
27:03Just to know.
27:05And that, if needed, I'll call as mine.
27:10Mine.
27:16Karanam Acharya Ji.
27:18Acharya Ji, when I look at myself, it feels like I've spent my life going to one pursuit after another.
27:24And it might continue indefinitely without ever giving a sense of true fulfillment.
27:29Is there any universal goal that I'm meant to strive towards?
27:33Is there any deeper reason for our existence?
27:36It's the question of essence versus existence.
27:37What comes first?
27:39Do we first exist and then define ourselves?
27:42Is purpose something one creates for himself?
27:44Or are we born with some inherent authority that might purpose?
27:48Or is there no purpose at all?
27:55As long as the restlessness you mentioned remains,
28:03there ought to be a purpose.
28:10Removing the restlessness itself is the obvious purpose.
28:19When we say restlessness, that describes a situation, an experience.
28:28Who is the experiencer there?
28:32That often remains undiscussed, unexplored.
28:39Maybe that's what we need to start with.
28:44No?
28:44You saw no purpose at all?
28:48Existence?
28:49Existence?
28:49Essence?
28:53Sartre?
28:57If by existence, you mean physical existence.
29:05then restlessness starts with physical existence itself, does it not?
29:13Right?
29:16The moment you are able to feel that you exist,
29:23not even verbalize, not even speak in words,
29:29just feel that you exist,
29:32that feeling itself is restlessness.
29:37So existence is restlessness.
29:42I exist.
29:44I exist.
29:46And that's never a statement of completion.
29:56That is never a statement of total peace.
30:02There is always a wandering there, a longing there, something left incomplete there.
30:16That entity that comes in existence along with the body and keeps feeling incomplete.
30:27That's what we call as the ego, the sense of self.
30:34Not the Freudian ego.
30:38Ego, in the sense of I am-ness.
30:43I am-ness.
30:46I exist.
30:47I am-ness.
30:48And saying I exist is itself burden, a responsibility, project and agenda depends on how you want to word it.
31:04What to do with it, this I am-ness, this I am-ness, I exist, I exist.
31:08And if I exist without knowing who I am, what do I do with this existence of mine?
31:16I exist and I am incomplete.
31:18I exist, I am incomplete.
31:20So I go out searching for things to grab, stuff to do, accomplishments to have, no?
31:31Own stuff, strike relationships, get into this, get into that, reach somewhere.
31:40Who's demanding all that?
31:43Who is the one demanding all that?
31:45But the one raising that demand, is it physical?
31:54Is it real?
31:58Where does it come from?
32:00Does it really have any substance, any truth to it?
32:08No?
32:08If that is not explored, then the restlessness indefinitely will continue, obviously.
32:16I am born with something, that something within me itches for completion.
32:21It does not know in the first place where the incompletion comes from.
32:29But without knowing, its own constitution, its own incompletion, it indefinitely scans and venders in the world.
32:43Right?
32:44And then it says, what would be the right purpose of life?
32:50What to live for?
32:51What to live for?
32:52And any answer to this question is nothing but a replacement of one object of longing with the other.
33:07Right?
33:07That's what we usually call as purpose.
33:12Whenever there is a statement of purpose, can it be free of an object to achieve?
33:21No.
33:23No?
33:23You say, that's my purpose.
33:25So there would always be an object somewhere.
33:27This is to be done, that is to be done, this is to be done.
33:32Without asking who the subject is, who is the one longing to achieve that object.
33:37Right?
33:38And when one purpose fails, which is basically when one desire goes unfulfilled, when one object fails to satisfy,
33:48we simply substitute one object with the other.
33:54And the universe has an infinite number of objects.
33:57So we will never be short of objects to run after.
34:00Right?
34:01And when objects are changed, then we say, now the purpose has changed, or the purpose has improved.
34:08Now I have a higher or bigger or more refined or clearer purpose.
34:12But that is not much, except the same slot being filled by one object after the other.
34:22A replaces B, then C replaces A, and then D replaces something, something, something.
34:28It's a merry-go-round, and life is short.
34:32Ultimately, you find that the body that hosted the ego has completed its cycle, and the clamor stops.
34:44Only to be, you know, seen in the other bodies that exist.
34:50That does not sound like a particularly good story, does it?
34:54Does it?
34:56So when we say, what to do in life, which direction to take, what purpose to hold,
35:04won't it be much better to first ask, who is the one asking for purpose?
35:12Won't it be better to investigate the purposes you already hold, and see others hold?
35:20There is nobody without a purpose.
35:22You may debate the quality of purpose, or the stability of purpose.
35:29But there is nobody having no purpose, even for a moment.
35:35Everybody has something to do, something to achieve, somewhere to go.
35:39Right?
35:39So you see that all around you.
35:41And in your own life also, you have had purposes.
35:45So can you go into that and discuss where they came from, and what did they leave you with?
35:52Maybe that will tell you about the very nature of the machine, the very architecture of the building.
36:02Otherwise, substitution is a very easy thing to do.
36:07The last thing didn't work out for me, so what do I do?
36:10I try, the next thing, the next object.
36:14And there would never be a dearth of objects to try.
36:21But that's not what this opportunity called life is to be wasted in.
36:30Am I making sense, or is it too sudden and too fast?
36:35No, no, that does make sense, Acharya Ji.
36:38You talked about finding the answer to who I am, and who is the one asking for purpose.
36:43How can one try to find these answers?
36:45Like, how can we know who we are?
36:47I'm glad.
36:48So I think we are together.
36:52You see, you must be twenty-something, nineteen.
37:00And being a fellow with intellect, composure, you are looking at your life and the lives of those around you.
37:09And you must have read maybe a bit, maybe a great deal, but you surely know about personalities in history
37:22as well.
37:23And the common man across the flow of history, you know of them.
37:27They all have held purposes, right?
37:31Where did their purpose come from?
37:34You look at the common man on the street.
37:37He had the purpose.
37:39Where does he get it from?
37:42Where does he get it from?
37:47Huh?
37:48Inner aspirations, really?
37:51Did you speak into the mic?
37:53Inner aspirations, really?
37:55So today is a Monday, right?
37:59We have just been through a weekend, right?
38:04So the fellow had a purpose.
38:09The tourist had a purpose.
38:11Rishikesh was thoroughly jammed over the last two days, Saturday and Sunday.
38:19Even two kilometers would take forty minutes.
38:24What gave them this purpose?
38:26To leave their place and come over to this place.
38:32And now, Monday, they have all checked out.
38:37And they have returned.
38:39Many returned yesterday night itself.
38:41And they'll say, this is a Monday, so I have to attend office and that's my purpose.
38:46Where is that purpose coming from?
38:48And how come all of them have a shared purpose?
38:51How is that possible?
38:55If that inner aspiration, if it is inner, how is this inner thing so common among everybody?
39:05If there is something that is very, very common to everybody, is that really inner?
39:11Inner would probably mean individual.
39:13And that would have some kind of distinction, a little bit of uniqueness.
39:18No?
39:19If you are doing the same thing as she wants to do, as he wants to do.
39:24If all of us want exactly the same object, is the demand inner really?
39:31Or has it reached the inner place from an outer source?
39:43You know, if something is really inner, really yours, chances are it would be a little different,
39:50a bit distinct from what he holds within.
39:54But that does not seem to be the case.
39:57Where does the usual purpose come from?
40:03Sir, could it be the instinct to survive and sustain oneself?
40:07Great.
40:08But how is it possible that the survival definition, the very definition of sustainability is common for so many people?
40:21How is it possible?
40:23And at the same time, at the same time, somebody from another culture might not be having the same definition
40:31of survival.
40:33They might not be spending their weekends the same way.
40:39They might not be eager to return to their offices the same way.
40:47So, where do our purposes come from?
40:50Because what you are saying is a little bit of an extension of what she said.
40:55She said, it's inner aspiration.
40:58And you are saying survival.
41:00That too seems to be something inner.
41:02Is it really inner?
