~~~~~~~~~~~~
Transcript
00:00There is someone you say you love dearly. You tell that person, you are my life. You are my life.
00:05That person passes away. Within a few hours, you are found having your meals.
00:11You are in grief. The body is not in grief. The brain is not in grief. The brain is telling the body,
00:16I need my food. I need my glucose. I need my nutrients.
00:20So, in the middle of that grief, you will go and have food. You are in grief.
00:25The body is not. Or is the body ever in
00:29grief? Does the body ever understand anything sublime? All that the brain knows is its own
00:35survival and continuation. The dearest one is lying dead in front of you and
00:41the brain is saying, you know, some food, please. Some food, please. Does that not happen?
00:47Maybe not immediately. After a few hours, how long will you stay hungry?
00:51The brain does its own thing. The brain needs food. It needs food. Doesn't matter
00:55that even if an avatar has died in front of you.
