00:13Virtues of abstinence and in my drunken state I say, but I want to understand
00:18What would be the benefits of not drinking? What is the problem with this question? It comes from a drunken state
00:25So in a desirous state I ask what would be the benefits of dropping desire?
00:31No answer would be relevant. I'll expand it on your example

00:48You're not walking straight. Yeah, and then you fall and you bleed. Look at your knee
00:54That's how you navigate. Look at your pain. Acknowledge your suffering
