00:00I am finding it difficult to continue with the job.
00:02Should I, sir, continue with the job and find a purpose?
00:07There was a reason you got into your current job.
00:10Public opinion, money, prestige and all that.
00:12Have you so fully changed that these things won't matter to you anymore at all?
00:18No.
00:18So Maya smiles.
00:20Even as you contemplate your resignation and such things, she smiles.
00:24Because she knows that you are not fully prepared in her sense.
00:27So you will resign and then regret the decision.
00:29Because you have just not thought of the consequences.
00:34When you are to fight Maya, you have to use all your resources, especially thought.
00:40Think of what you're going to do next.
00:42And don't overestimate yourself.
00:44Know that you still have a desire for social sanction and money and such things.
00:49So if you resign from here, have you prepared an adequate and a better option?
00:54Or do you just want to hop onto the road and become a job seeker and later on curse spirituality?
