00:00How to remain organized? You see the job that they are doing,
00:03they are moonlighting type of thing, two jobs together, how can they concentrate?
00:08So the scriptures do not talk of focus or concentration, they talk of attention.
00:12There is a fundamental difference there. The one focusing is the ego, right?
00:17Who is the one who focuses on somebody? The ego is the focusing entity, right?
00:22When is it that you just focus or concentrate on something?
00:26Come from experience, you know that, right?
00:28When that thing seems to fulfill your desire, the more a thing seems or promises to fulfill
00:35your desire, the more quickly and smoothly you focus on that thing, you concentrate on that
00:40thing, right? So it is not focus or concentration that Vedanta talks of, it talks of attention.
00:45Attention is a totally different quality. It says find out, figure out, inquire, know.
00:51Concentration is with the purpose of consumption. Attention is with the purpose of dissolution,
00:57self-dissolution.
