00:00Who can be beautiful for long? By beautiful, I mean attractive in a physical way.
00:03But the fellow comes and says, ah, so beautiful and you feel delighted.
00:06No, it's not a thing of delight. It's a thing of concern.
00:09Tomorrow I'll not be equally beautiful by way of my face, by way of the body.
00:13And then those same eyes will not look at me or turn elsewhere.
00:17And then I'll be depressed. This is weakness.
00:19It comes to you as something worth celebrating.
00:22Be very, be very cautious of your celebrations.
00:25Be very careful about your happinesses.
00:27What you celebrate as happiness is what you will later repent as misfortune.
00:33Somebody who is celebrating your beauty, your physicality or whatever,
00:37he would not celebrate you if you lose your beauty or your manliness or whatever.
