In your attempt to become the sage, it is very easy to become the savage and that's what happens to Indians.
00:06
We didn't follow the process of the sages. We just emulated their results.
00:12
What was the process of the sages? They used their mind to the fullest extent.
00:16
And then they reached the boundary of the mind.
00:18
They went through the entire journey. It was an arduous painstaking journey.
00:21
They paid every bit of the price.
00:23
The commoners thought they can have it easily and cheaply.
00:27
So they said, fine, if the final thing is that the mind is to be dropped, we'll drop the mind.
00:32
We'll stop using the mind. So India stopped thinking.
00:35
India started scoffing at logic.
00:38
India made the intellect a dirty word.
00:40
What is better? Emotions are better. Blind belief is better. Superstitions are better.
00:45
Thought is not good. Logic is not good. Rationality is not good.
00:48
Because these are things of the mind.
00:50
Rather I'll go by my gut feeling.
00:52
Now the one who goes by his gut feeling is a savage.
