00:00India is the place where the urge to understand hit the human for the first time.
00:06India is the cradle of religion itself and true religiosity is about understanding life
00:13and therefore getting liberated from its bondages.
00:16That's who an Indian is.
00:17Who wants to understand what this thing called the self is?
00:20What is meant by relationships?
00:21Who am I? Who is the other one?
00:23What is this thing called life?
00:24Why am I alive?
00:25What is death?
00:26Only someone who is conscious enough, keen enough, and courageous enough
00:30to go into these questions deserves to be called an Indian.
00:33And that's the kind of nationalism we need.
00:35A nationalism founded on understanding.
00:37From where I am looking, you know, 140 crore people do not deserve to be called as Bharatiya.
00:43They may continue to hold the Indian passport.
00:45That's a separate matter.
00:46But when it comes to being Indian nationals, well, that's a very elite thing.
00:51That's a thing that requires a lot of qualification.
00:53Who is an Indian?
00:54An Indian is someone who understands the very basis of life.
