00:00 Remember the values in India's constitution are all very very spiritual and spiritual
00:15 means sublime, very high, highest values.
00:20 We should be proud of those values.
00:25 In fact, when the audience is a little more mature, I love to propose, rather assert that
00:38 the Indian constitution is founded on Vedantic values.
00:46 If you want to call yourself a Hindu, be a Vedanti, then you will be Sanatani in the
00:54 truest sense of the word.
00:57 There's a difference between being a Hindu and being a Sanatani.
01:03 If you just follow the Hindu rituals and customs and culture, you can be called a Hindu.
01:09 Without reading anything, without knowing anything, you can still be a Hindu.
01:13 Why?
01:15 Because your father is a Hindu, your mother is a Hindu, so you become a Hindu.
01:20 But Sanatani is a great qualification like a B.Tech, M.Tech or Ph.D.
01:26 You have to earn it.
01:27 Being a Sanatani is no small deal.
01:31 To be a Sanatani, you have to rigorously study your scriptures and you have to live by them.
01:38 You have to make Vedanta your life.
01:43 And a Sanatani is a brave person.
01:47 A Sanatani is a protector, not a destroyer.
01:55 A Sanatani takes pride in fighting ten oppressors all alone.
02:12 He vibes with the spirit of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, "Sawa lakh se ek ladaun".
02:21 You remember that?
02:22 I am all alone and in front of me is an army of a lakh, more than a lakh, a lakh and a
02:30 quarter oppressors.
02:35 I will fight them all alone.
02:37 That's the Sanatani spirit.
02:39 The Sanatani spirit is not about ganging up and pulverizing those who are fewer in number.
02:49 That's the Sanatani spirit.
