00:00Sir, does a superpower exist?
00:03Yeah, exists and sleeps within you.
00:06You are the only superpower.
00:07The moment you ask does a superpower exist, do you see the horrible assumption contained?
00:11You say, does a superpower exist outside of me?
00:13What you are saying, no, safely I am out.
00:16I don't want to take the responsibility of being a superpower.
00:19So let the superpower be somewhere out there.
00:21You are the superpower.
00:22You have to first of all just get rid of all that is powerless and needless about you.
00:27We have gathered a lot of things that make us powerless, like the concepts you are talking
00:31about.
00:32Those concepts make you powerless.
00:34Once you get rid of those concepts, you are the superpower.
00:37That superpower in the Sanatan philosophy is called as the self, Atma.
00:43That's the Shruti that all Puranic literature, all Smriti is supposed to submit itself.
00:50The only superpower is the self, Atma, me.
00:53There is no other superpower.
