00:00Have you ever seen any animal fasting?
00:02We manage to fast because we rule our bodies and that's why we are human beings.
00:06We rule our bodies.
00:07The bodies keep saying so many things.
00:09We don't, we don't care, we don't care.
00:12Even examination tomorrow, it's just 10.30pm and the body is saying sleep.
00:16What do you do? Crash on the bed? What do you do?
00:18You say, I don't care.
00:20Your comfort is less important than my priorities.
00:25The body is saying give me comfort.
00:27You say no, something else is more important.
00:29We are no more creatures of the jungle.
00:31We are not to be ruled by the body.
00:33We must understand the body and we must use the body towards the purposes of consciousness.
00:40Consciousness will decide the destination and the body will be the vehicle to reach that destination.
00:46The body itself cannot be the destination or the ruler.
00:49What do you want? To use your body or to be used by the body?
