00:00In our school, students are from different states, languages and culture.
00:05I want to ask, how can we connect all the cultures together?
00:09That thing that connects us all is of the greatest importance.
00:13What connects us all?
00:14You are a human being, she is a human being, I am a human being, she too is human, standing
00:19there, he is human.
00:20In spite of what separates us from the outside, the color he is wearing is not the color I am
00:27wearing.
00:28My age is not the same as her age, right?
00:31The native language you have, the staple food she prefers might greatly differ.
00:38But still we are all conscious beings and that's what unites us.
00:44That's what unites us.
00:46When you are caged, you cry.
00:49When she is caged, she cries.
00:52Diversity is a wonderful thing.
00:54See how diverse this book is, is it not?
00:56Red, white, yellow, pink, all kinds of colors and we celebrate that.
01:03Wonderful, wonderful.
01:05There has to be something that runs in common.
01:08Gita chapter 7 of Sri Krishna, he says there, you know,
01:12if the world is like a necklace or a garland containing beads and flowers and stuff of all kinds,
01:21then I am the invisible thread running through the garland.
01:26There must be something that connects the different kinds of flowers.
01:31What is that?
01:31That alone, remember, is of the greatest importance.
01:35That's human consciousness.
01:37And we all want to love and want to be loved, right?
01:42That's human consciousness.
01:43That's what unites us all.
01:45That's what is common amongst us all.
01:48And when that commonality is seen, then differences are welcome.
01:54Right?
01:56That's what we all want to do.
01:57That's what we all want to do.
01:58That's what we all want to do.
01:59That's what we all want to do.
01:59That's what we all want to do.
01:59That's what we all want to do.
02:00That's what we all want to do.
