Passion too comes from surroundings.
00:02
But passion becomes dangerous because it presents itself as if it is something internal.
00:08
Not only does it present itself as something internal,
00:11
it decorates itself as something of the heart.
00:15
The fellow will say, you know, my heart beats for cricket.
00:17
You must ask him, why doesn't your heart beat for ice hockey?
00:20
Just because you have had no conditions favorable to ice hockey.
00:27
You have not been conditioned towards ice hockey.
00:31
You are conditioned towards cricket.
00:33
Because there was cricket on the TV, there was cricket in the journals,
00:37
on the radio, in the park in front of your house.
00:40
Your elder brother put a cricket bat in your hand when you were just 3 years old.
00:44
You were seeing all these things.
00:46
And all these things were having an influence on you.
00:49
The result is, you didn't even get to know when you absorbed and generalized all these things
00:54
and you have started saying, well, my heart beats for cricket.
00:57
Were you born in Brazil, would your heart still beat for cricket?
01:01
Or Russia, let's say?
01:02
So passion is as much an external thing as, let's say, peer pressure.
