(00:00) The mission that you're on. Well, today you know a few months ago the WHO or the World Health Organization made a prediction that there is going to be a mental health pandemic. At least 5 years ago none of us knew what is a pandemic. Today we all know what is a pandemic. And they've gone further and they said the next stage is there will be a suicide pandemic.
(00:28) Just to put it in perspective. In 2020 when the pandemic was in full swing all over the world in Japan more people died of suicide than of the pandemic. So we don't really need the virus. That's all I'm saying. Because the virus has gotten into our head. Because once survival is taken care of you if you didn't do not become conscious the way you sit, stand, breathe, think, emote, and function within yourself, if it does not become conscious, you will naturally head downhill.
(01:06) This is just September 23rd, I completed 40 years of this work. So 40 years ago I was a young man one afternoon when I had nothing much to do, somehow an hour and a half gap was there for me. In the work I was working like morning 5:30 in the morning to 11:00 in the night building various kinds of businesses around me.
(01:31) So when I got a break, there's a small hill. This hill is a place where we go and for the youth. When I was a kid I cycled up this hill. We camped on this hill. We partied on this hill. If you want to test our motorcycles, we went up the hill. Just about anything you want to do the youth go to Chamundi Hill.
(01:52) This is the thing. I just walked up and sat on a rock. My eyes were still open. I thought it's just 10, 15, or 20 minutes. Suddenly, I started feeling every cell in my body literally dripping ecstasy. I thought this lasted 15-20 minutes, but when I came back to my normal senses, 4 and 1/2 hours had passed. For the first time in my adult life, tears me and tears were simply impossible.
(02:24) Tears to a point my shirt is all wet. Then I shake my skeptical mind and ask what the hell is happening to me. All I knew was I had hit a gold mine and there was no context. Nobody around me could tell me what was happening with me, nor did I know what was happening with me. This is something that most people will experience in their lives on a certain day when they're very happy.
(02:49) 24 hours feels like 10 minutes. Another day when you're depressed, 10 minutes will feel like 24 hours. >> [laughter] >> Time is a very relative experience. When you're so blissed out, what is 2 minutes is 8 hours, 10 hours, just gone like that. So, in about 6 to 8 weeks, I came to some kind of stabilization within myself and started experimenting as to what is happening to me.
(03:17) Then I realized, if I keep a little distance from my physiological and psychological activity that's going on, if I just remove myself a little bit, then within within a few seconds or within a couple of minutes, every cell in my body is bursting with ecstasy. Now, this is not just my experience. Today, we have it measured out in Harvard Medical School how there is endocannabinoids are bursting out in people simply because they do a simple practice.
(03:52) So, I made a plan in 2 and 1/2 years' time. I will make the whole world blissed out. I knew the methodology. If you just keep a distance, it'll happen. 40 years now. >> [laughter] >> Today, people are saying we are touching over 2 billion people. Last year, our video views have been 3.51 billion. So, people think that's great.
(04:17) But, no, that is less than half the population as far as I'm concerned, because I started thinking I'll make the whole world blissed out. But, people are committed to their miseries, either because of their beliefs, or their ideologies, or their compulsive behavior within themselves. So, it needs to happen to the whole world.
(04:38) This is I don't see this as a mission. I just see this as an expression of my humanity. Suppose you hear a good joke. Will you tell somebody who's dear to you, or will you cover yourself with a blanket and tell yourself? >> Of course, I'd tell everybody. >> Yeah. >> Pretend it was mine. >> That's all I'm trying to do. No mission. My experience, I'm trying to just rub it off on people.
(05:01) >> Some stats for you that support what you said earlier. Someone dies by suicide in the UK every 90 minutes. 76% of them are male. The single biggest cause of death for men under the age of 45 here in the UK is by suicide. You said you've spent a lot a lot of time around business people, and they appear to be the most unhappy and least blissful people.
(05:24) >> say unhappy. >> Stressed out. What is it that we're doing to the Cuz I I see myself I must be in that category to some regard, because I've focused most of my time on, you know, building businesses, and, you know, I guess to some extent material things and success. So, I must be part of that category. >> a diversionary tactic in the sense.
(05:46) So, you can think that survival means two meals a day. Or you can think survival means Bentley. So, it'll keep you busy a little longer. Still survival process. As long as the survival there's an instinct of survival and there is a longing to expand within the human being. So, for most human beings these two things are mixed up.
(06:11) It is that instinct of survival which is finding expression as their longing to expand. It doesn't matter who you are, where you are, anybody. You want to be something more. If that something more happens, you want to be something more. You can go on like this how much more. Whatever you want, if I make it true for you right now, next moment you'll be thinking what more.
(06:37) Suppose I make you the king of not England, the planet. Don't look at me hopefully. I will not commit such a blunder. >> [laughter] >> Suppose we make you the king of this planet, will you be fulfilled? No, you will look at the moon. You look at the other planets. You look at the other galaxies.
(06:59) If I give you one galaxy, you'll say what about the other galaxy? Because there is something within a human being which wants to expand limitlessly. >> Is that not a good thing? Is not that not the reason why >> I didn't say it's not good. I'm just saying you have constipated that longing to expand. That's why you suffer. When I say constipated, right now you want to expand limitlessly.
(07:24) Can you expand this body limitlessly? >> No. >> Please don't. Don't try. >> In the gym I've tried, but >> [laughter] >> So, physical expansion is a limited expansion and your longing is to expand limitlessly because there is something within you which doesn't like boundaries. The moment see if I imprison you in a 5 by 5 cubicle, you will feel terribly imprisoned.
(07:52) Then tomorrow I will announce your liberation and release you into 10 by 10 cubicle. You will feel wonderful for 2 days. Then you will feel horribly imprisoned. Then we will release you into 100 by 100 cubicle. You will be fine for a week. After that you will feel miserable. Doesn't matter where I set the boundary.
(08:11) Once you feel the boundary, you want to break it. So there is something intrinsic within you which doesn't like boundaries. This is a consequence of the evolution that you have gone through. Once your cerebral cortex flowered, now you don't like boundaries. But you're trying to expand in an infinite way by counting 1 2 3 4 5.
(08:37) Can you ever count 1 2 3 4 5 and 1 day I say infinity? No. You will only get into endless counting. That's all that's happening. That's why I said your longing to expand is a limitless process. But right now you're constipated. You're going one little step at a time. Constipation means just this. It happens little by little.
(08:58) >> [laughter] >> So So is it a case of trying to find a balance between your ambition to expand and to grow and be successful? >> And peace. >> Why should you find balance? You must expand. >> Okay. So I That's what I'm doing. Yes. >> Yes. No. What is the means to become a boundless expansion? If you look at that, then we say consciousness.
(09:21) This is what raising human consciousness means. Because you realize physical expansion is not a realistic thing. We can make physical arrangements as we want, as we need for our convenience and comfort, but that is not the way to expand. Expansion needs to happen in a way that it's not physical in nature. Then you can also own the universe, I can also also own the universe.
(09:45) >> When when I when I look at the way we're living our lives in the western world, you talked about the WHO, they describe stress as an epidemic sometimes and they say it's a major contributor to the diseases that we're undergoing. Um where I'm trying to figure out in my life where I'm going if there's anywhere where I'm going wrong.
(10:04) It cuz I've I'm building these businesses and I'm you know I sometimes ask myself to what end, you know? >> When you say, "Where am I going wrong?" The wrong is this the fundamental wrong is this. What is not you, if you think it's you then you're trapped in that. If you think that I am this chair because we sat on this chair for a period of time, if you think you're this chair, now this chair will go with you stuck to your backside wherever you go.
(10:35) That's a very ugly thing to do, isn't it? It's the same thing right now. Your thought, you think it's you. Your emotion, you think it's you. Your your physiological stuff, you think it's you. It's pretty ugly. It's just because everybody's got this chair stuck to the backside, it looks like it's normal. After all it's convenient.
(10:57) Wherever you go, you don't have to look for a chair. You got a chair fixed. >> If I identify with all these things, if I identify with this chair, you're saying that that becomes a way of life. >> the thing is your identity whatever you're identified with, that becomes a part of you. >> And is that what's causing us a lot of our despair? >> Yes.
(11:15) If you sit here just as life, what is your problem? As long as you're alive, everything is fine. >> Yeah. >> So the only problem is you're identified with things that you're not. So there's a whole lot of confusion about everything. So, if you're successful, you suffer. If you're failure, you suffer.
(11:38) If you're See, look at the thing. Is there one thing that human beings are not suffering? Just tell me. Somebody's poor, they suffer their poverty. Somebody becomes rich, they suffer the taxes. No children, they suffer that. Give them children, every day pain. Something or the other. So, it looks like whole life is suffering.
(11:58) So, somebody makes a philosophy, whole life is suffering. You must go to heaven. If you know that much, why are you not gone? You're not gone because you don't know a damn thing. Whether there is a place better than this somewhere or not, you don't know. You're just claiming these things to somehow fix your psychological sloshing that's happening inside.
(12:22) You're making up things to somehow believe something so that your psychology won't just splash all over the place and go crazy. You're trying to hold yourself in place telling yourself fairy tales, all right? So, what I'm saying is Do you believe that if you want to navigate your life through this time that we have in a sensible manner, the most important thing is to see life as is.
(12:56) As it is. If I don't see in this room things as they are, I will walk into this table, I will bump into somebody, I will do crazy things every day. If I see very clearly, navigating myself through all these tables and tripods is not a big problem. Hello? But if I don't see, if there's no clarity of vision, if I'm not seeing things as they are, then what a mess it is.
(13:26) Every little thing, that's all the problem problem is not that what you're doing is wrong. The way you're seeing it is wrong. >> How do I How do I know the way I'm seeing it is wrong? What is the evidence of that or the symptoms of that? >> Oh, as you giving me the evidence from statistics, >> [laughter] >> that's the evidence.
(13:44) >> Mhm. >> So, I'm not like that. Obviously, you're here, I'm here, so both of us didn't commit suicide, so we are not in the statistic. >> Mhm. >> [clears throat] >> That's not the point. You think those people who committed suicide, everything was wrong with their life? No. Not everything was wrong with their life.
(14:05) A few things as it goes wrong in your life, my life, everybody's life, some things don't work. All right? In everybody's life, something doesn't work in the outside world. If everything is working for you, obviously, you're living a very pretty life. In my life, 95% of the things that I want doesn't happen. Only 5% happens. Because I'm trying to fix everything in the world.
(14:28) Most of the things don't happen. So, if anybody wants to die of frustration, it must be me, but I will not because no matter what, I will die blessed out. I live blessed out. I die blessed out. Because what I do, what the situation is around me, and how I am are never connected. I am the way I am. I'll do my best.
(14:51) >> Has Has it required you to train yourself to sort of disassociate from >> This No. No. No. See, this is all because See, the problem is too much uh spiritual jargon is going all over the world because every idiot who's read two books can write us next book. You read two books you There was a time when people read 10 books and then wrote one book that was called plagiarism.
(15:17) Now, they read two books and they write the third book. See, your your background full of books. I hope you not read all of them. >> I've only read two and I'm writing [laughter] one. >> Uh because just about everybody is writing. It's all right. It's freedom of expression. They can write what they want. But these are two things.
(15:43) There is expression and there is perception. Which should you invest in more? >> Perception. >> If you perceive well, your expression will be valuable. Right now everybody is on expression binge without perceiving a damn thing. >> [laughter] >> There will be so many people that are going through stress at work in their relationships in their household listening to this going how how do I live blissed out like he does? >> [laughter] >> Like what what's step one in that staircase? >> I'll tell you.
(16:22) See, whatever you call it, you call it by whatever name you want. Stress, anxiety, tension, depression, bipolar, this one, that one, many things. I was talking to some of the top psychiatrists in UK and they told me there are 72 varieties of psychological ailments. I thought there may be half a dozen. But they said there are 72 varieties of psychological ailments.
(16:52) I was really surprised. 72, that's like a golf game. No. >> [laughter] >> Then I asked what are these? They told me quite a few things. One of the things they told was compulsive nose picking. Even if they're bleeding in the nose, they can't stop it. That explains everything in a way. Compulsive nose picking.
(17:15) Leave the nose picking. It's compulsiveness. You're compulsive in your thought, compulsive in your emotion, compulsive in your actions. That's all the problem is. How do you fix compulsion compulsiveness? If this room is dark, how do you fix it? Let's do one thing, both of us fight with this darkness and push it out of the window.
(17:35) There's no such thing. If you turn on the light, it's gone. So, there is no substitute for consciousness. If you become conscious, compulsive behavior is gone. Suppose you are in thought, emotion, action, and energy, you are not compulsive. That you can create whatever thought you want, whatever emotion you want.
(17:58) Would you keep yourself blissed out or miserable? What's your choice? >> Blissed out. >> For yourself, every human being, for themselves, they want the highest level of pleasantness. So, the intent is already there. You don't I don't have to inspire them, be blissed out. There's no such philosophy.
(18:19) Every human being wants the highest level of pleasantness for themselves. Those who think it's hopeless here, they're the ones who created heaven. They said, "There is a place which is always pleasant." But they don't have any proof that we are all we are not already in heaven and making a mess out of that. Hello, do you >> Do you think this is heaven? >> This is planet Earth and it's a fantastic place and it's the most fantastic place we have seen in the known universe.
(18:47) >> Do you think there's heaven though? Do you think there's somewhere else we go to that is another world after this one? >> Everybody who thinks there is one, they must go today. Hello. If they if they have better accommodation somewhere than London, shouldn't they not go? Did people not rush to America at one time? >> [laughter] >> Why are they not going? No, they They you to go. This is not good.
(19:13) >> [laughter] >> It's true. >> See, whatever kind of mental ailment you talk about, essentially, when your intelligence turn against you, there is no power in the universe which can help you. But why is my intelligence turn turning against me? Somewhere we have not learned how to handle it. Isn't it? >> Mhm. >> Your education systems, your society, nowhere is there anything to teach a child how to handle their own intelligence, their own emotions, their own thoughts. There is no such thing.
(19:46) All fixing mechanic shop, you know, repair jobs everywhere. Leave [clears throat] the repair jobs. The simple thing is this. The reason why people are struggling with this is they have pardon my words, but otherwise people won't get it. They have a mental diarrhea. This doesn't create anything except distress.
(20:12) Anything that runs loose without your control is called diarrhea. Why has it happened? Even today, even if somebody gets physical diarrhea, immediately somebody will pop a pill. But traditionally, what did we do? Somebody has diarrhea, first thing is we understood we have eaten something wrong. First thing we did was just don't eat, just drink water and wait.
(20:37) And next, identify what did I eat yesterday or today morning, what happened to me, what is it that I consumed which caused this, and avoid that. But no, we will plug it in. No, if you plug it in, it'll all rise within yourself. This is all that's happening. Right now, our way of doing life is very forceful. >> When I had mental diarrhea last time, the last time I I had mental diarrhea, that kind of overthinking causes anxiety, all those things.
(21:03) >> let me correct this. There is no overthinking. I am saying people are not thinking enough. This is a serious problem, but they think they're overthinking. They are not overthinking. It's a diarrhea. It's happening. Why is it happening? Something wrong food has gone in. What is the wrong food? This is all it is.
(21:24) The moment you identify yourself with something that you are not. Your mind you cannot stop. Do what you want. Do whatever you want. It will not stop. >> So that that anxiety that people experience where they start remunerating about the future or something that's happened, that is because that >> No, let me put it in this way.
(21:47) This This question I understand what you're saying. See, what is it that human beings are suffering? What happened 10 years ago? They're still suffering. What may happen day after tomorrow? They're already suffering. This is what you're saying. What happened 10 years ago? Is it here now? Does it exist? No. What may happen day after tomorrow? Does it exist here? No.
(22:12) So if you're suffering something that does not exist, what does it mean? Tell me bluntly. If you're suffering something that doesn't exist here, >> like insanity, but it feels like it exists. >> insanity. It is insanity. That's why I'm saying once you start doing this, how far do you go? When will you graduate? When will you end up in a doctor's place? When will you end up in an asylum? It's a question of time.
(22:40) But now the world bodies are predicting it's going to happen large scale very soon. >> Let me give you an example. So if someone has a sick child or or they just lost their job and they're thinking over and over again about, you know, "Oh my god, my child's going to die. I'm going to lose my job and then I can't feed myself.
(22:59) I'm going to lose my house, then I'm going to be on the street." That kind of rem- remuneration and stress that that anxiety they experience on a day-to-day basis because they're scared of losing something which might, you know, they believe will land them up on the street or lose their job or they won't be able to feed their family.
(23:15) That kind of torment. >> Mhm. I wouldn't want to put those two things in the same level. Losing a child and losing a job. >> Mhm. [laughter] >> All right. Losing a child is a different thing. It's a completely different thing, obviously. There will be a certain amount of pain in any human being. That's different.
(23:36) So, let us say such a terrible thing we had to face that we may lose our child. >> Mhm. >> Tell me, can you do the best for the child if you are in your sanity or is it good to go into insanity? >> Feel like it takes a tremendous discipline. >> Now, what it takes we'll see later, but I'm just asking a fundamental question.
(24:02) >> Okay, well, it makes more sense not to go into insanity. >> Yes, sanity will make a difference. Maybe we can save the child, maybe we cannot because all aspects of life we don't determine. Our experience we can determine. See, what happens in the world around you, even if you're just two people in the family, never will it happen 100% your way.
(24:29) If you try, nobody will be around you. >> [laughter] >> It's as simple as that. >> I've read your story, so I know that there's moments in your life where you've lost people that you loved. >> Lot of people. Not one or two. Because my family is so large, almost every other day I am burying somebody who's very dear to me.
(24:49) >> Which one of those moments impacted you the most and did any of them drive you into the insanity that we're talking about? >> No. I don't let anything drive me into insanity. This is a brief amount of time that you have as life. Here we create many things. You're creating businesses. I have large movements where millions of people are involved. There are relationships.
(25:17) You cannot take these things lightly because other lives are involved. But you cannot prevent anybody from dying. You can attend to them if if something is going to happen to them, you can make attempts to save them, but you cannot prevent anybody from absolutely dying, including yourself. This is a fact. So, the only two things that we have is a certain amount of time and a certain amount of energy.
(25:47) This is all that you call as life. What do you want to make out of it? You want to make a mess out of it. See, the thing is first of all, they're living an emotionally constipated life. They only loved their child. I saw everybody as mine. Everything that happened hurts. But that's part of it. If you walk in a forest, there are thorns in your feet, but this doesn't mean you don't enjoy the forest, all right? >> You have moments of sadness.
(26:14) >> See, you're asking a very question which is a hard for me to say because I have done this to myself. That nothing happens within me the way I don't want it. If that was your situation, nothing happens within you unconsciously. Everything that happens happens the way you want within yourself.
(26:42) What is the experience that you want to have right now is always determined by you. What would be your choice? Grief and misery, is it? >> No. >> See, you You the only creature who can decide your way of being, no matter what is the surrounding. Every other creature is an instinctive reaction to what's happening around them, because they are only fired by their survival instinct.
(27:06) They don't have any other aspiration. Once their stomach is full, their life is settled. For a human being, stomach empty is only one problem. Stomach full, 100 problems, because life doesn't settle with survival. You want to be something else all the time. The problem is you're a being. You're supposed to know how to be.
(27:32) How far away have human beings gone from the definition or that aspiration? >> So, is that an incorrect question to ask then, because because I asked you if you if you've you experience sadness? >> If I want to, I do. >> If you want to, you do. Okay. >> I said it doesn't happen as it doesn't happen by itself.
(27:53) If I want I can be loving, if I want I can be joyful, like if I want I can be sad. Yes, when somebody dear to you is no more, you allow yourself that. But, do you stop doing anything? No. >> That sense of purpose you have, the most popular question that young people ask me is is about passion and purpose.
(28:16) They they've been indoctrinated by society to think that they have this one purpose. And their big issue is they can't seem to find it. So, like an Easter egg, they're they're going in hunt of what's my purpose? How do I know once I've reached my purpose? The people that are working now in jobs um listening to this on their way on the tube to work, how what is this this subject of purpose and passion? What do I commit my life to? How do we go about answering that? >> See, if you get absolutely committed to your purpose, you will be called a
(28:45) fanatic. If you're willing to do whatever it takes to achieve that, you will be called a terrorist. >> [laughter] >> So, there is no purpose to life. If you if you are not a vested interest, and you can be not a vested interest only when you're joyful by your own nature. That how you are is determined by you. So, this is the fundamental you have to set that your experience of life is determined by you.
(29:18) When I say experience of life, people are always thinking experiences happen because of external stimuli. No. If you dream of a tiger, you can experience fear, isn't it? You can you can dream of somebody beautiful and I experience love. Yes or no? So, I'm saying all experiences comes from within you. Human experience happens from within you, never from outside of you.
(29:43) There may be a stimuli. Now, this stimuli means just like this. You know, uh you're too young to know these things. There used to be wax all cars in this country. They always used to park it in a slope like this because morning you need two people to push that car in the morning in '50s and '60s, I'm saying.
(30:04) Later on, they had crank start. You need one person to do that. Otherwise, you can't get your car started. Today, all cars are self start. I'm asking you. Your peace, your joy, your love, your blissfulness, would you want to keep it on self start or push start? >> Self start. I wouldn't want it to rely on anything.
(30:28) >> you're asking repeatedly. You want push start. Don't be on push start. Inner experiences are always on self start. Outside world will never happen 100% our way. Little bit your way, little bit my way, a bit else's way. And that's how it should be. Cuz if everything happened your way, where the hell do I go? It doesn't happen your way or my way.
(30:51) It's fine. It is only fine if you're joyful by your own nature. But, if your happiness depends on what happens on the outside, then you being happy is a remote possibility. >> I want to be happy on my own nature. I hear I hear what you've said. However, I'm going to walk out of this room and I don't know, something's going to annoy me.
(31:18) Maybe my words are even wrong, but then I'll immediately snap back into the sort of unconscious, I don't know, dismay or despair. How What How does one go about like the first step in becoming happy by our own nature? >> Do you think your life is worthwhile? Your life is worth investing about 32 hours of focused time upon it, your life? >> Yes.
(31:44) >> If you think so, you should do that. This is what the process that I've called it as inner engineering. 32 hours of focused time. Book is just a a large brochure, you know? >> [laughter] >> Because there is a practice involved. When I say a practice, a simple practice which only 21 minutes of practice.
(32:05) To teach this 21-minute practice, we take 32 hours of orientation. Because without that, it won't happen. You need to understand how the mechanism of your own thoughts, why are they hitting If your hand is punching you in the face, why is it doing that? You need to understand. Otherwise, just holding it down is not the answer.
(32:27) This is the most sophisticated machine on the planet. Have you read the user's manual? >> The user's manual for my body? >> For yourself as a life. >> No, I didn't know there was one. >> So, when do you want to do it? Towards the end of the life is when people think they should do it. It's like you got yourself your iPad. Should you read the user's manual in the first 3 days or after 3 years when you're getting rid of the machine? >> When I first get it.
(32:52) >> Yes. >> But nobody ever gives me the user's manual for for myself. >> No, no, the thing is it's in-built. You have to just pay attention. >> How do I do that? >> So, we'll do one thing right now. Shall we do a simple experiment with this? >> Yes. >> You'll have to do this with your eyes closed. >> Okay. >> But right now look at me.
(33:07) >> Okay. >> [clears throat] >> Afterwards you can do you you place your palms like this facing down upon your thigh, gently placed. So, you will start breathing slightly deeper, 10 15% deeper than normal. Don't do it yet. Hello. >> Okay. >> And as you're doing it, I will say switch.
(33:25) Then you turn your hands around gently upon your thigh like this. And again when I say switch, get back this way. >> Okay. >> In these two conditions, something about your breath will change. I will also give you a clue what could be changing. Where the air is filling up in your lungs, how it fills up, something about it will change.
(33:44) Or let me put it this way, the maximum expansion and contraction in which part of the chest is it happening? This way which way? This way which way? Just notice that. Just hold your palms facing down, close your eyes. >> Okay. And when you say switch, turn my hands over, right? >> Yes. Breathe slightly deeper, not very forcefully, just 10 15% more.
(34:06) Notice where the maximum expansion and contraction is happening. Switch. Switch again. Please open your eyes. There's some difference? >> Yeah. >> What is it? >> Uh in what part feel how I feel? >> No. >> Or my breathing? >> That is the maximum expansion and contraction when you holding two different postures. >> Um, I felt like my my chest and my belly were expanding more when I switch when I was switching.
(34:49) I felt like I was just getting more air into my body. >> Let me tell you what's happening. You can experiment by yourself and see. When you have your hands facing together facing down with all fingers together, maximum expansion contraction is happening in the lower lobes of the lung. >> Yeah, yeah. >> If you turn it around, it shift to the middle lobe of the lung.
(35:10) A middle lobe being much larger, you feel more, but actually it's the shift. So, I'm saying just by turning your hands around like this, the very way you breathe is altering itself. It's not just the breath. The very way your life energy's function is altering itself. How many times in a day unconsciously are you Now, you're setting your energies into turmoil and hoping to be peaceful, it will not work and I'm happy it doesn't work because if it works for you by doing wild things and still everything is peaceful and wonderful within you,
(35:47) then what is the use of my life? Spending a whole lifetime paying attention to every little thing that's happening here. I'm saying if you can drive blind on the London streets and not hit anything, a good driver will feel insulted, isn't it? >> [laughter] >> That's all I'm saying. >> But, how do we learn the user manual for ourselves though? So, you know, is it it's not something we go and read in a book.
(36:13) You said >> The problem is this, all your sense organs are outward bound. Because they are survival instruments. Your sense organs, your ability to see, hear, smell, taste, and touch are essentially your survival instruments. Life cannot be enhanced by them. You can only survive better. If you see better than me, you can survive better than me.
(36:41) If you hear better than me, you can survive better than me. But, this life will not feel enhanced by perceiving more through the five sense organs. And they're all outward bound. You can see me. Can you roll your eyeballs inward and scan yourself? No. You can hear that? So much happening in the body, can you hear that? No.
(37:03) So, all your sense organs are only to perceive what's happening around you, not to perceive what's within you. So, to perceive within you, you need to turn inward. That needs a little because it's not survival. Something has to be done. You know how to write English language? >> Yeah. >> Yes. >> To learn the damn 26 alphabets, it took some effort, isn't it? Hello.
(37:28) >> Yeah, it did. >> It took some effort. And it it took some guidance because anything that's beyond survival needs striving. That striving is missing in the society. There was a time there was a time where in the civilization that we refer refer to as Hindustan or Bharat or today being the political country being called as India, in this culture, 70% of the people were invested in inward well-being.
(37:56) Because of that, they became super enhanced. Because of that enhancement, they became so wealthy in everything. Rich in mathematics, rich in astronomy, rich in business, rich in trade, rich in industry. It was the richest nation on the planet just 300 years ago. See, everybody from here, whether it's English or French or Portuguese, everybody went to India.
(38:21) You think in search of poverty? In search of wealth. Isn't it? >> Mhm. >> It became like that effortlessly without conquering anybody, without having large armies, because people invested in enhancing themselves. I am telling you, if you try to enhance your activity without enhancing yourself, you'll only die of stress.
(38:46) This is what is happening to unfortunately whole lot of CEOs. I am concerned about this, because a CEO means you gave something that is important that needs to happen in the world into his hands, his or her hands. And if they are stressed out, what misery will they create for the rest of the world? It's very important. >> That journey to taking care of ourselves, like I had to learn how to read a book or to learn language.
(39:13) >> No, I'm saying anything that's not survival >> Yeah. >> will not come naturally. You have to strive. The society has to create that longing. Being peaceful and joyful is more important for a human being's experience of life than me being better than you. That stra- that orientation the society has to create, isn't it? >> Mhm.
(39:36) I agree. I agree. It's just seems seems like there's such a powerful narrative coming from social media, magazines, TV, movies that are >> Yes, yes, I'm not denying that. >> Making us individualistic and >> It's not even individualistic. It's always about me being better than you. It started from the kindergarten school.
(39:59) There itself they told you, "I am first rank, you are third rank." From there it started, "I am better than you." So, the whole life is about being better than somebody means essentially what it means is I enjoy your failures. Does it sound like joy to you or sickness to you? >> Sounds like a sickness. >> It is a sickness.
(40:24) We're building it to our children right from day one. >> What about trauma? I was thinking about early trauma and how that drives us to be drives us away from a life of contentment and drives us towards, you know, a life where we might end up in prison or we might be dysfunctional in other ways because of something early that happened when we were 7 years old, you you know, could be a small thing or a big trauma that has orientated us to be greedy or to be selfish or to be, in the worst case, maybe to hurt others.
(40:58) >> Essentially, you're finding an excuse for the way you are, which you yourself don't like. See, if something unpleasant happened to you, you have two choices. Either you can become wise or you can become wounded. Choose. More unpleasant things happened to happened to you than anybody else. You must be the wisest man soonest.
(41:28) No, you choose to be wounded because you carry this wound like a badge and so that you can cause the same wound to others. What's the point? When you know the pain of it, how do you do the same thing to me? >> But it becomes a survival technique >> There is no excuse. The thing is just this. Instead of intelligently, consciously responding to life, you are reacting like any other creature. That's all.
(41:59) >> So, something bad happens to me when I'm 7 years old and these neurons fire in my brain that make me react badly. >> all WhatsApp neurology. Whoever told you these things. So, now, we have a research center in Harvard Medical School in Beth Israel Hospital, okay? Right now, in October, this month, on 17th to 21st, we have a international conference there.
(42:25) In these 5 6 years of its existence, they have done a lot of study. One thing they found was I can't go into all the scientific things. I'm not a scientist. But, one important thing is this simple 21-minute practice I'm talking about. People who did this for over 6 to 8 weeks, the endocannabinoids in their system is 70% higher than what is considered to be normal.
(42:51) What is normal for a happy person is 70% higher than that. You know what's endocannabinoid? >> No. >> You know what's cannabis? >> Yeah. >> Yes. Every human being has cannabis receptors. This doesn't mean that this body was created to smoke cannabis. You're supposed to produce it. When you don't produce it, you try to substitute from outside. That's a different matter.
(43:15) Let me not go into that aspect. But, 70% higher. What this means is it is about 23% higher than what happens in sexual orgasm or extreme exercise. Simply sitting here. So, if you felt like that every moment of your life, do I have to tell you, "Don't rob, don't kill, don't do this"? >> No. No. >> That's all you need to We've not fixed that one thing.
(43:43) See, when you were a child, when you were 5 years of age, you were just bubbling with joy by your own nature, isn't it? >> Mhm. >> Somebody had to work hard to make you unhappy at that time. >> Mhm. >> But, now somebody has to work hard to make you happy. What happened to the equation? If you had really grown up, 5 years if you're that happy, by the time you're 31, you should have been ecstatic.
(44:12) >> [laughter] >> People typically do feel more miserable as they age. They feel more stressed and more stubborn and more bitter. >> No, they're carrying more baggage, that's all. >> Something earlier about um humans are the most intelligent species on Earth. >> Aren't we? You have a doubt about that? >> For now.
(44:34) Art- artificial intelligence. I wanted to ask you about this. >> Artificial intelligence, we'll come to that. First, establish this. Artificial intelligence is created by human beings, isn't it? >> Yes. >> Then how did it become more intelligent than me? >> Uh it's read more books. >> No. See, everything everything that's man-made here in this world came out of human intelligence.
(45:05) And it's still not a full of our intelligence. Still, there are many, many more things we can do. You are thinking mind means intelligence means just intellectual process. Because of that, you think the phone is smarter than you. Because it has better memory and it has better computing computing process.
(45:24) So, all those who are on one-dimensional intelligence, which is intellect, which is a European problem if you ask me. You are exited, but still you're European, you know? >> Mhm. >> In culture. I know you Brexit-ed, but >> [laughter] >> So, it's in Europe that suddenly human thought became very illogized. Why it became like this is the dogmatic religious beliefs, which did not allow people to think for themselves.
(45:57) If you thought anything other than what's written in the book, you're dead. They made this for a few centuries. So, suddenly when they broke away from that and started thinking for themselves, they suddenly thought this is liberation. And they eulogize human thought and we crafted the whole education system on the planet based on that.
(46:18) Today, you're just using one dimension of your intelligence, which is intellect. Thought process is thought to be everything. Where one of them went to the extent of saying, "I think so I exist." >> What are the other dimensions of human intellect? >> We'll come. We'll come. I'm asking you, do you exist because you think or because you exist you think? >> Because I exist I think.
(46:37) >> Yeah. You may think if you want to. You may not think. It's up to you. So, because you exist, your existence is important. Your existence, is it because you're seeing me that you exist? Even if you close your eyes, you still exist, isn't it? >> Yeah. >> If you don't hear anything, you still exist. So, your existence is fundamental.
(46:57) These are all activities of seeing, hearing, smelling, thinking, emoting. These are all activities of your existence. The life that you are. But we got it all upside down. And how you how do you expect it to work? Because another aspect is if I ask you a simple question, would you want your intellect to be sharp or blunt? What's your answer? >> Sharp.
(47:19) >> Sharp. If I give you a sharp instrument, let's say we give you a very sharp knife. Now, you must be very conscious how you move your hand. If you're little la la la la kind, la la la la la if you do intestines will come out. Yes or no? >> Yes. >> We don't give a knife to a child's hand only because of this, because his hand is not steady.
(47:45) Not because knife is dangerous. Never in the history has it ever happened a knife jumped up and stabbed somebody. It never happened, believe me. I've been following the news. >> [laughter] >> It is only the hand that wields it. It can cut a vegetable and make your meal or it can do surgery and save somebody's life or stab somebody and take their life.
(48:10) All these things the hand can do, not the knife. So, right now your intellect is a sharp instrument. Once you have a sharp instrument, you must know how to hold it. This is simply not there. Everybody's cutting themselves up and they think something is wrong with life. You can call the stress, anxiety, misery, whatever you want. Essentially you have a sharp instrument and you're unconscious, so you're cutting yourself up.
(48:35) >> Well, that instrument, that sharp instrument in a world where we're building machines that have the intelligence of a million people and those machines can make decisions. So, theoretically, the machine can now decide to send a missile at a country on its own because of >> But, if we had the intelligence, we wouldn't make a missile.
(48:58) >> Yeah, but we we have. And this is what I'm concerned about is I've sat here with all these AI experts and they're talking about the issue. They're telling me they're not going to be able to contain this artificial intelligence. >> Uh, see. Let me tell you an example. I've spoken about this before.
(49:15) I don't know if I should repeat that, but let me say this to you. I remember this very clearly. It was 1972. You didn't exist. And for the first time, they installed a gantry in the port in Mumbai called the Mazagon Docks. In the docks, they put up a gantry. Till then, as it was done everywhere in the world maybe a little further back there were labor who were going up into the ships and getting the sacks out and unloading.
(49:50) Those days the largest vessels were about 125 125,000 to 150,000 tons. They would take 24 to 28 days to unload one vessel. So, they installed a gantry. So, all of them went on strike, a big strike, which paralyzed Mumbai city. At that time, it was Bombay. It got completely paralyzed because all the labor went on strike.
(50:18) I'm sure many such labor strikes have happened here. Every time a new machine was installed, people went on strike. Because their argument was, "If you put this machine, this is going to unload a ship in one day. What are we supposed to do with our muscle? We got this muscle. Now, what are we supposed to do?" They went on strike.
(50:36) This is what now the professors, academics, all the intellectual people who only invested in their intellect, are now saying, "What are we supposed to do? The machine will do everything." It's fantastic, isn't it? All the machines are doing all the hard work for you. >> But but when when the machines can think, the machines could make a decision that they want to do things that aren't good.
(51:00) >> think? >> Do only machines think? >> Only machines think. Only if you have reduced yourself to become a mechanical thing, you're only thinking about life. Otherwise, there's a way of opening yourself up to life and experience the magic of life. Right now, you're trapped in the logic of life. >> Mhm. >> When I say the logic of life, logic is the foundation.
(51:28) It's very very important. But suppose in this building, we make you live in the foundations. Today, it's called basement, but it's actually a dungeon. We used to lock up people there, or animals, or something. If you want somebody to have a horrible life, you put them in the foundations. That's all I'm saying.
(51:47) If you live with foundations of your life, which is your logic, you will live a bad life no matter where you are. Even if I [clears throat] put you up in a palace, you still suffer. >> Are you scared at all? Are you concerned at all? Humans have made nuclear bombs. Now they've made this thing called artificial intelligence, which is accelerating.
(52:05) Are you concerned at all that it'll get into the wrong hands and people who are stressed >> No, artificial intelligence means at least the human error will be taken out. I'm happy about that. >> The human error? >> Yeah, there's so many idiots who can do anything. Half-brained people get to the top of the nation. They could do anything.
(52:22) At least artificial intelligence means there'll be a proper process before we launch anything. >> So, you're happy about artificial intelligence? >> I'm happy about any development because essentially how I see is that let me tell you my experience, first experience of an intelligent machine. I was probably 12, 13 years old.
(52:42) I was in my ninth standard. And I went to school only when I had to. Most of the time I got lost on the way. But when I went, I thought this was just an unnecessary nonsense in my life. >> Mhm. >> So, I [clears throat] spent most of the time in the library, barely went to the classroom. >> Like me. >> [laughter] >> So, one day somebody brought a flatbed calculator.
(53:07) Maybe you've not even seen one like that. You're all doing on the phone and iPad. Flatbed calculator is most of it is flat, one little screen like this. You've never seen anything like this. So, you say, you know, 185 into 365, took answer is right there. I looked at it and I felt really insulted. Why the hell are they tormenting me in a mathematics class when this machine is there? Why can't they make one machine for chemistry, one machine for physics, one machine for every damn thing? I enjoyed swimming in the lakes. I have enjoyed sitting on the
(53:39) trees. I enjoyed loitering around all over the countryside. I learned my life like that. But, this nonsense, why am I going through this when this silly machine can do this? At last, my dream is coming true. I'm very happy. >> [laughter] >> Everything that human beings can do. See, this silly mentality, what will happen to our jobs? Why do you need a job? All you need is food to survive.
(54:09) Suppose everybody on the planet is fed. I know those guys idiots will become drunkards and rugged exist. That's a different matter. But, if everybody is fed and you don't have to worry about your living, this is when human beings can do something absolutely fantastic. Right now, they're spending their life just to earn a living.
(54:30) When will they make a life out of themselves? >> What you said sounds almost identical to what the founder and a CEO of Open AI, who made ChatGPT, which is leading the leading the way at the moment, said literally yesterday in an interview he did. He said, "If we can get people to a point where they don't have to worry about tedious jobs, then they can live these blissful lives.
(54:56) " >> We'll do one thing. We'll remove all the earth moving machines and everything. Give everybody a pickaxe and a crowbar and a spade. Let them all go back to the mines and construction everywhere. Let them start doing physically. Will they protest or no? >> They will protest. >> Ah. That's what will happen in 50 years time.
(55:15) If you ask them to multiply, they'll protest. That's what I said the first moment first moment I saw the calculator, I said, "What? This is nonsense. Why am I doing all this when I can do tuk tuk tuk here?" >> The The counter argument to that is that people need a sense of like purpose. >> Ah, that is what I mean. >> a false purpose to live because you have not even made an attempt to understand what this life is about, what its potential is about.
(55:40) You need a false purpose, you go and dig in the mine and it's your purpose. And then you produce two two children. Putting bread on the table is a big purpose to your life. Silliest way to live for a human being. >> That's how most people live. >> Unfortunately, that's the kind of world we have created. >> And the world that you if you could wave a wand now and create a different world, which I know you're trying to do.
(56:04) In fact, you're built >> [laughter] >> you're building a a city in America, right? You're part of a project. This is why I find it so fascinating because I look at the way we've designed society and we're so it's so stubborn in the way we've designed it. I often wonder if we're going to have to go back to a blank canvas and redesign it again from the ground up.
(56:25) >> That's never going to happen. Where is a blank canvas? How do you create a blank canvas? That's never going to happen. >> The desert somewhere in a >> You have to slowly see the thing is This happened. Can I tell you a joke? >> Please. >> One day a cardiologist, a famous cardiologist, a doctor, went because he was driving an Aston Martin and it gives trouble, you know.
(56:49) >> [laughter] >> He went to the garage. And the mechanic said, "Yes, doctor. Leave the car here. Evening, I'll have it ready." The doctor took the taxi and went to the hospital and came back in the evening. The mechanic had not even touched it. Then I said, "Hey, why is it not ready?" "Oh, no, doc. This is this that.
(57:12) Tomorrow morning, I'll have it ready for Tomorrow morning, he came. Car was not ready. Said, "Hey, what are you trying to do? Why is it that you're not doing?" Then the mechanic said, "Huh. See, I fixed your engine. You pay me 500 pounds. But you fix somebody's heart and they pay you 50,000 pounds. Why is that? You fixing an engine, I'm fixing an engine.
(57:41) Doctor said, try to fix it when it's running. If you could demolish everything and rebuild it's very easy. The thing is you have to rebuild it when it's on. That is the whole challenge, isn't it? That goes for individual human being, that goes for the society, that goes for the world. We have to rebuild it when it's still functioning.
(58:04) After you demolish means are you inviting a nuclear holocaust so that later on we can rebuild it? >> It's not a good idea. >> No, that's not what we want. >> And that's why the practice that you described >> Yes. >> matters because we can >> matter even if you're manning a nuclear bomb.
(58:24) Let's say it's your job to press the button. You're waiting there. If you are miserable, frustrated, depressed, even without a command you may press if it was in your hand. Sometimes it may happen. But if you're joyful, blissful, naturally you look at See, this is something people don't understand. People think love brings them happiness. It's not true.
(58:44) If you're very joyful, you will look at look up look upon everything in a loving manner. Because what you call as joy, love, let me put it this way. If your body becomes pleasant, we call this health. You want it? >> Yes. >> If it becomes very pleasant, we call it pleasure. You want it? >> Yes. >> If your mind becomes pleasant, we call this peace.
(59:10) You want it? Only to create pleasantness in your surroundings, do you need the cooperation of various people and many forces around you? But to create pleasantness in your body, mind, emotion, and energy is 100% your business. If you were the only person on this planet, would you know whether you're good or bad? >> I wouldn't know.
(59:35) >> So, it is only by comparison that you know that you're good. But, if you were the only person on this planet, if you were joyful, would you know you're joyful? >> Yes. >> That's important. >> So, you're saying focus on joy and how we feel versus good or bad. >> No, I don't I'm not saying focus on joy. I'm just saying you understand this.
(59:55) Your interiority can happen 100% your way if you're willing. External things will not happen 100% our way. We have to strive. Some things happen our way. Many things don't happen our way. But, internally if you're happening your way, you will keep yourself very pleasant. When you're pleasant, we can expect pleasant things from you.
(1:00:18) When you're unpleasant, I expect pleasant things from you. Where is it going to happen? People in the name of religion and in the name of love, in the name of caring, they've done terrible things, isn't it? Most horrendous things have been done. >> A question I've often asked myself is am I You talked about like fake purpose a second ago.
(1:00:46) How do How do I know if the Cuz when you interview people and you say like, "What's your purpose? What's your mission?" They'll sit here and they'll give me lots of things, right? Some of them might be I want to help people. >> fooling around. I have no mission. >> No, not you. I'm saying you ask a kid on the street, "What's your mission?" Younger kids these days will say they they want to save the world or they want to >> [laughter] >> They want to be a public speaker or they want to be a YouTuber.
(1:01:09) Do you view those as fake ambitions in that from confused people? >> Hey, I did not say fake ambitions. The thing is you're making up a purpose to bring some meaning to your life. >> Yeah. >> What you need to understand is life is a phenomena beyond all meanings. Meanings is an element of your mind.
(1:01:34) Only human mind needs meanings. Sun comes up in the morning, doesn't need a meaning. Full moon out there, doesn't need a meaning. Tide, doesn't need a meaning. Only place where you need a meaning is your head. Your mind needs a meaning. Why? Have you seen this? You've been at some point, at least for moments, you've been very joyful, blissed out.
(1:01:58) You've been At that time, do you ask what is the meaning of life? >> No. >> No, only when you're miserable, it's important. So, you create one problem and then you create another problem and another problem and you think it's a solution? No. Meaning is a serious problem. Meaning has become meaningful for somebody only because they're in some way distressed.
(1:02:24) The The process of life and the experience of life has become burdensome. Why am I carrying this? I want a meaning for the burden that I'm bearing. If life was a blissful process, why would you care what is the meaning? >> So, when people people must ask you all the time, "What's the meaning of life?" And you must then it Does that suggest that they are absent of bliss? >> See, this meaning problem is a very Western problem.
(1:02:50) In the Eastern world, we don't ask for meaning. We are always looking for profoundness of life. >> What's the difference? >> The difference is digging deeper into yourself and creating something around your head are two different things. >> Meaning is So, meaning is looking outside for a reason. >> Outside or inside doesn't matter, but you're trying to build a psychological solution to an existential reality.
(1:03:17) >> And you have to accept that existential reality. >> The existential reality is you don't know where the hell you came from. >> And I don't know where I'm going. >> And you don't know where you're going. You're just here for a brief amount of time. And you think you're at the center of the world.
(1:03:36) That means you must be very religious because it's the religious people who went on propagating that this planet is the center of the universe. Though in India for over 6,000 years people have known planet is round and it goes around the sun. Clearly there are drawings and there are books. There are documents which clearly say that. But people who are following dogmatic religious processes, they propagated that this is the center of the universe.
(1:04:05) Now, will they say we said what is wrong and apologize for that? No. Because when I think I am the center of the universe, I will be doing so many idiotic things. You must apologize if you are the one who taught me that nonsense. >> So life doesn't have a birth >> tell you. >> given me >> This happened.
(1:04:31) There was a bishop in Istanbul. At that time it was Constantinople. You know, I'm I'm in I'm not trying to insult any community but this actually happened so I'm quoting the thing. In 1924 this bishop was part of the Greek Orthodox Church. Very Orthodox Church and he's a bishop. So all his life he's a man of cloth. He was there.
(1:04:58) But being in Istanbul you know, all these exotic stories come wafting across the Bosphorus from India about the mistakes, about the yogis, about many, many things. India is full of stories like this. And for ages these things have been coming and excited people to travel to the East, all this stuff. So, he always wanted to go to India and meet a real Yogi or a mystic.
(1:05:23) But being a man of cloth, he couldn't decide where he goes and doesn't go. When he was over 60 years of age, he got an opportunity to go to India. He went to Southern India and found a good guide who could guide him. And the guide took him and said, "See, on this particular mountain, if you go this way, this way, this way.
(1:05:42) " He gave all the landmarks. "If you go there, there's a cave. There there is a Yogi. That is the man you're looking for." So, our bishop went all the way up. Mountains are not kind to people who lived in churches or in indoors, you know? They don't care who you are. They trouble you. So, with great difficulty, he went up.
(1:06:01) When he went to that place, just outside the cave, a Yogi was sitting totally blissed out with his eyes closed. So, you the bishop had heard that if you see a Yogi, you must prostrate before him. So, he went down and he was not fit for those kind of postures, but with great difficulty, he went down huffing, puffing. He stood up again.
(1:06:23) Hearing all the commotion, the Yogi opened his eyes and smiled. Then the bishop asked, "Can I ask you a question?" This is the first introduction. The Yogi laughed and said, "Well, by all means, you can ask a question." Then the bishop asked, "What is life?" See, as a human being, you have the intelligence to ask this question when you were 8 years of age.
(1:06:50) Well, in your childishness, you missed it. At least when you were 16, you should have asked. Definitely, you have the intelligence to ask that question. But now you're well over 60. Now you're asking, "What is life?" But it's okay. It's better late than never, you know. [laughter] So, when he said that, Yogi went into raptures.
(1:07:12) Ah, ah, life life is like the fragrance of jasmine uh you know, upon the gentle spring spring breeze. The bishop said, "What? Fragrance of jasmine upon gentle spring breeze? My teacher told me life is like a thorn. Once it gets into you, if you sit it hurts, if you stand it hurts, if you lie down it hurts.
(1:07:39) And you are saying it is like the fragrance of jasmine upon gentle spring breeze." Then the Yogi laughed and said, "Well, that's his life. You must understand your experience of life is determined by you. It's your choice." >> The last thing I wanted to ask you about is a campaign you've recently um been putting a lot [clears throat] of effort into, which is the Save Soil campaign.
(1:08:07) I want to know why you're doing that and why that message and campaign is so important for all of us. >> One important element of why human beings will become mentally ill in the next 15 to 20 years, a lot of people are estimating there may not be a single family left without one mentally ill person at least.
(1:08:27) That's what they're saying. So, this mental illness, why? See, one thing is in the last 100 years of industrial level of agriculture, one thing that's happened is we are only seeing soil as a resource. Soil is not a resource, it's your source. It is the source of your life. It is the largest living substance or system on the planet.
(1:08:54) If you take a handful of soil, it has 8 to 10 billion organisms in it. It is the most intense life and the largest living system not just on the planet in the known universe. It is the largest living system. But still, over 80% of the nations are treating soil as a resource, which they think they can fix it by adding a chemical or take away chemical.
(1:09:17) Let me come to this very quickly. What is the problem? See, if today all the insects disappear from this planet, in another 2 and 1/2 to 4 years, all life on this planet, including you and me and plant life, everything will be gone. Insects go away. If all the worms go away today, in the next 1 and 1/2 to 2 years or 2 and 1/2 years, all life on this planet will be extinct.
(1:09:45) If all the microbes go away, we both of us disappear within the next few seconds. This is the reality. They are the foundational life. We are the cherry on the cake. Right now, average loss of microbial life is like this. 27,000 species of organisms are going extinct per year. 27,000 species are going extinct per year.
(1:10:10) At this rate, it's estimated in the next 25 to 40 years, we will come to a place where it'll be very difficult for human beings to find basic nourishment on the planet. First thing that will collapse is your software. That's what you're seeing in terms of psychological ailments. That's not the only reason. All those things are there, but the most important thing is lack of nourishment.
(1:10:34) Just to give you a perspective, some studies have been done in California. What they are saying is, in 1920, if you ate one orange, what nutrients you got from that? If you want that today, you need to eat eight oranges. Has there been a day when you ate eight oranges in a day? No. This goes for everything else.
(1:10:56) You're eating empty food which doesn't have richness. Just look at the Google map. Don't don't go by what I say. Just look at the Google map of the world. How many green patches? How many brown patches? It's terrifying. >> We have a closing tradition on this podcast where the last guest leaves a question for the next guest, not knowing who they're going to leave the question for.
(1:11:22) Who was that guy? >> Can't tell you. >> [laughter] >> That question to you to you, not knowing who it was for. They didn't know it was for you. Is what in your heart of hearts matters to you? >> I have only one heart. That also I gave away long time ago. Heart of hearts, I don't have all those things.
(1:11:47) I broke my heart into a million pieces and threw it away in the world. I live not because of my values. I live not because of my morality. I live not because of some commandments from somewhere. I live out of my humanity. >> Thank you. >> Woo!
