00:00A lot of people from the West, they come to India thinking that the land itself will do
00:04something magical to them, the land will do nothing.
00:07What makes India special then, at least for some people, the right company, the right
00:11environment, the right process of self-enquiry.
00:15Now you have to then ask yourself, how much of self-enquiry did really happen?
00:20How much vulnerability did you really espouse?
00:24And it's a choice always to open up, to come close and say, I want to speak out, I want
00:29to confess, I want to talk about myself, not about the experiences I'm having in India.
00:34What is the point in coming to India and waxing eloquent about a particular wedding ceremony
00:41one sees or a particular thing one sees on the road or a particular thing one experiences
00:46in the apartment?
00:48Is that what one comes to India for?
00:50One comes to India to prove himself, to know himself.
