00:00My question is, till what level it's fair to say it's my life, my rules and not going by social and generational norms to meet family's expectations?
00:09Often, the rebellion we raise against the society is itself a social thing.
00:15The one who disparages society the most becomes socially popular.
00:19Authentic rebellion can happen only when first of all you know two things.
00:23One, what are you rebelling against and who is the one rebelling?
00:27We know neither of these. Then what is this rebellion? It's a sham.
00:31It's not a rebellion against the society. It's very much a social phenomena.
00:35It is within the society. Immature rebellion takes you nowhere.
00:39Before you rebel against others, rebel against yourself.
00:43The others are not so much outside. The others are all inside of you.
