What's wrong with running after an object? The simple answer is, it's an inefficient investment of my resources.
00:07
That's what is wrong. Nothing religious or spiritual or moral about it. Simple economics. Running after something is a very
00:15
inefficient investment of my life, energy, time, resources and that's what you see spirituality is. Life economics.
00:22
We talk of material economics. You don't just have stuff in your wallet.
00:27
You have stuff in your heartbeat. There is stuff in your wallet that is numbered and finite.
00:33
Equally the number of heartbeats that you have are very finite.
00:37
So spirituality is life economics. What to do with these
00:42
limited number of heartbeats that you have. What to put your life into. If you put your life into desire,
00:47
that's an inefficient investment. It does not give you what you want from it. The ROI is very bad.
00:53
So you observe that and that observance itself is liberation.
