00:00The blessing of science is that it has given even the scientifically illiterate people the
00:06fruits of technology. You might not know science at all, yet the fruits of technology like the
00:11mobile phone are easily accessible to you. In fact, you might be someone who is contemptuous
00:17towards science. So many people are, aren't they? For example, somebody would say, oh,
00:21COVID is just a hoax. The virus does not exist at all. Even if you display to him the entire
00:26structure of the virus, this is the virus. He'll say, no, it does not exist. Even this
00:31kind of a person will be happily roaming about with a mobile phone. If you have so much contempt
00:37towards science, why are you using the products of technology? You require the outer education
00:42that Vedanta calls as avidya and you require the inner education that Vedanta calls as vidya.
00:48If you lack in either of them, then you will be just roaming around in ignorance of all kinds.
00:56Of these two, obviously, the inner ignorance is more fatal.
