00:00It's not that the subjects that we are taught are all worthless.
00:03They are very, very important.
00:05Very important.
00:06I'll forever remain thankful to my schools, to IIT, to IIM, and to all the authors whose
00:13books I read.
00:14I'll forever be indebted to them.
00:16But the fact remains that education of the self is far more important than all the other
00:22kinds of knowledge that we are given.
00:24And that's something we do not have.
00:26The result is that the person is chasing goals all her life without even knowing whether
00:33the goal is worthy enough.
00:36We never look at ourselves and ask, who am I?
00:39And therefore, what do I need?
00:41That question is never, never raised in our classrooms.
00:44Who are you?
00:45Self.
00:46That word is entirely missing from our curricula.
00:49Self.
00:50We are taught mathematics, and management, and engineering, science, languages, quality,
00:55sociology, literature, but who is it that receives all the knowledge?
00:59The self.
01:00And the self is never taught.
01:01How wise is that?
01:02Please tell me.
