00:00Maturity is when you can override your body.
00:04Maturity is when you can transcend your body and by body I mean the bodily compulsions
00:11that includes your thoughts, your feelings, everything because they are all bodily.
00:16You very well know how chemicals in the body translate into thoughts and feelings.
00:22We call them as thoughts, we call them as feelings, they are just chemicals within,
00:26right?
00:27So, when you can transcend the urges of the body, the instincts, the thoughts, the feelings
00:35then you deserve to be called mature as long as you are body driven and thought driven
00:43and emotion driven and you don't have discretion, you cannot see what is going on, you cannot
00:48be called mature.
