Transcript
00:00If you are someone who wants to fly to Kedarnath on a helicopter, or wants to use a ropeway, or wants to use a horse or a mule, then you are just not eligible for Kedarnath.
00:11And Joshi Mat. Joshi Mat is associated with Shankaracharya. How did he navigate the entire country? He started from Keral. On helicopter, four wheelers, SUVs, trains, jets. What did he have? His own two legs.
00:24The sacrificing spirit of Shankaracharya is what Joshi Mat represents. I will sacrifice my body and my physical pleasures. Even my physical survival I will sacrifice for the sake of a noble cause. That's what Joshi Mat is supposed to represent.
00:39Now instead, what do you have? We said, you should be going to places of pilgrimage only if you are not a pleasure lover. Only if you are not a crowd lover. Only if you are not a body lover. Only if you are not a money lover. Only then are you qualified to proceed on a pilgrimage, right?
00:55Instead, who are the people who are enjoying pilgrimages these days? The ones who go there for pleasure. The ones who have no higher ideal in life.
