00:00I tend to panic. So how do I handle the situation or, you know, reduce my panic rate?
00:05What my desire is good, bad, great, ugly. Panicking only spoils the outcome.
00:12So if you are really serious about what you are targeting, what your desire is,
00:17you would not want to panic. You remember class 8th final exam?
00:20Remember how serious some of you were? How many of you were very serious that day?
00:24How many of you sweated and felt anxious and a lot?
00:28Now, how do you feel when you look back at all that anxiety? An emotion arises.
00:34You support it. Therefore, it becomes all the more dominant.
00:37Be it anger, be it jealousy, be it fear, be it lust. And the same thing applies to panic.
00:42Don't choose to support panic. Panic will not get on top of you.
00:46And that's a practical thing. Panic is not useful. Therefore, I am not supporting panic.
00:51Today you laugh at that 12 year old. Tomorrow you'll be laughing at this 20 year old.
