00:00We wear clothes. Now, clothes are so commonplace, so ubiquitous. We never want to question,
00:04why do we wear clothes? You wear clothes so that you can prove to yourself that you are not animals
00:09and you need to prove to yourself that you are not animals because you are animals.
00:13Otherwise, there is no need to prove. Is there a need to prove the obvious? Is there a need to
00:18prove the self-evident? But we are animals. Therefore, we put on clothes so that it can
00:23be proven that we are not animals. That's why we are so afraid of death because if you are not
00:27afraid of death, you cannot exist. If you say, there will be no death to me, that also means
00:32that you do not exist as an ego. Therefore, you have to pretend that you are afraid of death
00:37so that you can pretend that you exist.
