00:00Why do you think all the gods and goddesses all around the world, irrespective of the religion or culture or country or century,

00:07why do all the gods and goddesses have hands?

00:09Please tell me.

00:10Why don't they have antennas like cockroaches?

00:12Because we have hands.

00:14Since we have hands, so our gods have hands.

00:16Why do our gods speak our own language?

00:19Does an Indian god speak French ever?

00:20But we don't exercise any bit of intelligence.

00:24We don't ask why are our gods necessarily speaking our language?

00:27Why are Greek gods not found in India?

00:29Why were Indian gods not worshipped in Greece?

00:32Why do gods keep changing?

00:34Now do animals have human thought and intention?

00:37No.

00:38But even if you worship an animal god, it will be almost human.

00:42So that again proves what we are worshipping.

00:44We are just worshipping our own form.

00:46They all emerge from man's mind.

00:48They are our own projection.

00:49They are all coming from here.

00:51And it's so stupid to worship your own mind, your own imagination.
