Transcript

00:00We never face the full consequences of our actions or even if we face them,

00:05we don't face them in one go. We never get to see a big wound on the chest.

00:11Instead of that big wound, our security systems ensure that we have hundred little cuts.

00:17Now hundred little cuts can never all be seen together in one go.

00:22So we live under the delusion that there is only a little bit of bleeding.

00:27Had there been one single big wound on the chest, then we would have been forced to realize

00:34the extent of our suffering. But we don't have that one big wound.

00:38We have arranged to turn that one big wound into several small ones.

00:44And even though several small ones don't occur to us parallelly, they come to us in installments.

00:50And that gives us enough allowance to keep deceiving ourselves

00:54and keep telling ourselves that all is all right.
