00:00Whenever a question comes in my mind in the class, I feel that the question might be too silly or
00:06the consent might be already covered in the class and the professor might insult me.
00:10In front of 400 of you, he is boldly posing me a question and then asking me, why am I
00:16afraid to ask questions?
00:24Do I answer his question or his situation?
00:28The situation says he is not afraid at all, he is already good, he is already fearless and bold and
00:36that's the predicament of most of us.
00:39We are good, we are bold, we are fearless.
00:43We just pretend for some reason that we are not.
00:48How is it that you are able to just stand up and without hesitation, without fumbling, say what you said
00:55just now?
00:58Did you find him stammering?
01:00Did you?
01:02Did you find him inaudible?
01:03Do you think his voice was quivering?
01:06Did he have a shaky voice?
01:07Yes?
01:07How are you afraid?
01:09How are you afraid?
01:09You aren't.
01:11Hmm?
01:12There, however, might be a slight difference.
01:16The environment right now might be enabling you to forget others.
01:26Yes, there are 400 of us here, but probably our friend has forgotten all 400 of us.
01:35He is so concentrated that for him, it's only him and me.
01:41And because it's just him and me, so he just got up in a simple fluid way and posed this
01:49question.
01:51Were he to remind himself that there are so many present here, he would have felt hesitation.
01:58And that brings us to the fundamental cause of hesitation.
02:02Others, others, others.
02:06Let it be between you and the thing that you love.
02:11And then there will be no space for others if the moment others come in.
02:17You remember what that great existentialist philosopher said?
02:20The other is hell.
02:24Life has to be a love affair.
02:26It's you and that.
02:29And no third party.
02:31The moment the third one steps in, there is chaos.
