They will have a TV ad telling you, come on, do it right now, abhi.
00:04
Are they telling you to gain instant nirvana?
00:06
No.
00:07
They are telling you to go and right now buy the most worthless product possible.
00:12
That's the more general and widespread application of living in the present.
00:19
Just do whatever nonsense comes to your mind.
00:21
Oh yes, abhi, come on, let's do it.
00:23
Whenever you have heard such words or phrases, come on, let's do it right now.
00:27
Do they point at something auspicious?
00:30
Do they?
00:31
In fact, we are so reluctant to do the auspicious thing right now, that the saints have had
00:37
to teach us that the right thing must be done instantaneously, kaal kare so aaj kar.
00:43
What is it that we rather do instantaneously?
00:46
All the wrong things.
00:47
Living in the present must mean only nishkama karma.
00:51
Living in the present must come from the right center.
00:54
I am living in the present not for my gratification, but for my liberation.
00:59
Living in the present can very well mean instant gratification.
01:03
Can it not?
01:04
Live in the present.
01:05
Two minutes noodles.
01:06
Make it quick.
01:07
Living in the present must mean I am doing the right thing and the results are unpredictable.
01:10
I don't want to think about the results.
01:12
I have no space to think of the results.
01:14
I am fully immersed in dharma.
01:17
I am fully immersed in the right action.
01:19
I am so occupied, I have no inclination, no time, no space to think what will happen
01:25
tomorrow.
01:26
That is the real meaning of living in the present.
