00:00
Mental health today is a bigger problem than any other disease of the body.
00:05
Obviously not without reason.
00:07
Obviously then you have to get into and inquire everything that affects the mind.
00:12
Because the mind cannot just get sick on its own.
00:15
Surely there are influences, surely there are conditions that are pushing it into sickness.
00:20
And if you start inquiring into those conditions, the entire world order will come crashing down.
00:25
You will have to question our economics, our education, our social institutions, our politics, everything.
00:31
We live in make-believe worlds. We live in bubbles.
00:34
Within those bubbles there is a degree of comfort, security, etc.
00:37
But those bubbles can be punctured anytime.
00:39
It's just that in this limited phase in which we are living, the bubbles are not being punctured very regularly.
00:47
Yet life keeps testing us in small ways and facts have a way of showing up.
00:54
When facts show up then our concepts and imaginations are badly hurt, sometimes shattered.
