00:00The moment you sit down to study, you start feeling drowsy.
00:03How many of you have experienced that?
00:04There was no sleepiness at all.
00:07But the moment you open the book, you feel like crashing on the bed.
00:11Experienced that?
00:12That's what Prakriti wants you to do.
00:15Just sleep and protect the body and keep the body happy.
00:18Prakriti has no intention to have you as a great one,
00:23as a realized one, as an elevated one, a free one, a liberated one.
00:27No, Prakriti does not want any of that.
00:29That does not mean that Prakriti is our enemy.
00:32That does not mean that we have to assault the body.
00:34That only means that we do not have to be ruled by our body.
00:39We cannot allow the body to dictate us, to gain control over us.
00:43We cannot allow that.
00:44And what do we mean by the body?
00:46You know, most of the emotions that you experience are simply physical.
00:50Most of the thoughts that we have are just biochemical things.
00:54If some additional chemical is injected in your body, your thoughts will change.
