00:00You look at a woman playing a very abominable role in a movie, let's say a Hindi movie.
00:05Somebody coerced her? Somebody was holding a gun to her? No.
00:08It's an offer that she accepted.
00:09And that offer, the tendency to accept that offer comes from Mother Nature.
00:14Don't you see how animals behave?
00:15Show them a little food and they'll come after you.
00:17And why does that happen?
00:18Because we are being told the purpose of life is pleasure.
00:21Pleasure can be bought using money.
00:23So if somebody comes to you and offers money for something,
00:26you will have a tendency to accept that money.
00:28And if you don't accept the money, it is not because you don't want to accept the money.
00:31It is because usually the money is not big enough.
00:34Quote a big enough number and almost everybody can be bought.
00:38Where is the question of exploitation?
00:40But a person who realizes that pleasure and consumption are not the purpose of life,
00:45cannot be bought.
00:46I want girls and women to be that person.
00:50The person who gives too hoot to all kinds of temptations.
00:53The person who says, I lay down my life rather than sell myself in any kind of marketplace.
