00:00Go for tough attainments and by tough attainments
00:03I do not mean things that you get by competing with a million other people
00:08They are not tough attainments. If a million people want the same thing that you do
00:13Then you are just one of them. Are you not?
00:15Please see that. The toughest attainment is about wanting something that no one else wants
00:20But that's not what our education and society has taught us
00:23We have been told a million people wrote the JEE and you are in the top 1 percentile
00:29Therefore, you are special. Please think of it. How special are we if we have all the common desires?
00:35The one who did not get selected desired to get selected. The one who got selected desired to get selected
00:42The desire is just the same. So where is the difference?
00:44Can you question desire itself and when you question desire itself?
00:49Then you learn the right desire and the right desire is very very rare and that's where joy is
00:56That's where the highest pleasure is
