Look at the human male rushing after the human female and doing that all his life.
00:05
And look at the monkey running after the female monkey and doing that all his life.
00:09
How are these two any different?
00:10
Internally, we are still animals.
00:12
Our instincts, our feelings belong to the animals.
00:15
We share them with the animals.
00:17
Attachment you find in animals, you find in human beings as well.
00:20
Jealousy, possessiveness, you find all across the jungle, also in cities.
00:26
Human beings are so territorial, fighting for land.
00:30
Look at Russia and Ukraine.
00:32
And look at the dogs in front of your house.
00:35
They too keep fighting for land.
00:37
So we are doing all the things that animals do.
00:40
You need not live by that.
00:41
That's the reason why Vedanta continuously tells you, see, you are not the body.
00:47
Naham dehasmi.
00:48
What is that supposed to tell you?
00:51
That you have no obligation to live by your bodily compulsions.
