00:00I want to be the best person in this field.
00:03So, it is a desire and my life won't have any meaning without it.
00:07The thing is to have a sane desire.
00:09I am sick. My desire should be for a doctor.
00:13Not a dancer. Not a joker.
00:16So, desire the right thing.
00:18Desire the right thing and have an intense desire for the right thing.
00:23Wisdom is not about being desireless in the first go itself. No.
00:28We all rather need desire.
00:30But we need desire that proves good.
00:34That's of some utility.
00:36If your desire ends up troubling you all the more,
00:39what good is the desire?
00:41You can be a slave to the desire if it's the right desire.
00:44In fact, you must be a slave to the right desire.
00:47Desire rightly and immerse yourself totally in your desire.
00:51Give yourself up. Surrender.
