00:00 Are we happy even with the little personal families that we have?
00:04 What happens in our families?
00:05 What happens in our houses?
00:06 Let's get real.
00:07 If we are not happily happy in a family of five, why do we want to extend the same unhappiness
00:14 to the entire globe by talking of stuff like Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam?
00:17 The man and the woman are all the time at each other's throat, breaking each other's
00:21 head.
00:22 You cannot have peace even in your kutumb of two.
00:25 Why do you want to have a global kutumb?
00:28 But it sounds so nice.
00:30 So the little exposure to spirituality that we have is by way of popular culture.
00:35 We accidentally heard something from the Ramcharitmanas, Upanishads, obviously they are in Sanskrit.
00:41 So we not even accidentally got to hear them.
00:43 In the name of spirituality, all we do is pay lip service.
00:48 Because we have never had the time to really go into spirituality.
00:51 Advaita Vedanta is at the core of all religious streams.
00:56 We have never had the time to study Vedanta.
