00:00If you looked at a Ram statue or picture belonging to the last century or to the century before last one, even till the 1980s, Sri Ram is a very gentle looking North Indian fellow.
00:11And if you look at how Sri Ram is being shown today, what kind of form do you see? Very muscular? Almost similar to a Bollywood or Hollywood action hero.
00:20Where is the form then coming from? Is the form divine? No, the form is coming from your own current political and social tastes.
00:27That is what is wrong with form. The form is your own ego projected on the screen.
00:32Just as you have a projector in a movie theater, you see the thing in front of you on the screen.
00:37But where is that image on the screen coming from? It is coming from a place behind you.
00:42Similarly, all these forms that you worship are coming from a place within you.
00:46Your own ego is projecting itself into something and then you start worshiping it, which is quite stupid.
00:51It's like worshiping your own shadow, thinking that it is separate from you.
00:54And that's why those who have known have always said that the truth is formless.
