00:00 Life is not so that you get a cozy job from the campus or you get into an MS or an MBA
00:06 program and go out and make big dollars.
00:10 No, the Upanishads don't forbid that.
00:12 They say do that if you want to do that, but remember that is not the purpose of life.
00:16 We get so deeply conditioned that we lose all, for want of a better word, memory of
00:23 our true nature.
00:24 We start behaving as if this daily getting up and washing your face and just going randomly
00:31 to some place and cheating in exams and you know sending spam to somebody or receiving
00:39 nonsense from somebody and going and just slapping somebody from behind.
00:44 We start behaving as if all this is our nature, as if this is what we are born for.
