00:00Look at most multi-taskers, they say it's their professional life, the boss, this way
00:05they say it is their personal life, the wife, the mother, the kids, all the rest of it.
00:09Look at how they move in that part of their self and in this part of their self.
00:15And you will find nothing that unites.
00:17There is no relationship, there is just no unity, there is nothing that connects, harmonizes.
00:23You're in the gym one moment, you're in the kitchen another moment, can you still have
00:28a unity?
00:29Or in the gym you're trying to beat calories and in the kitchen you're trying to eat calories.
00:35There is no harmony, no harmony.
00:38The most beautiful life is like a symphony, unending symphony.
00:42You must listen to symphonies, you know, the way they rise and fall, the way the whole
00:48experience changes and yet remains the same.
00:51And the beauty is that underlying unity.
00:54Can your existence be like that?
