00:00An ape is climbing up a tree and a civilized man a PhD in management is climbing up a skyscraper using the most advanced elevator. Is there really a difference? What is the ape going up for? Some food, some success. What is our doctorate going up for? Some success. That's what we are designed for.
00:19You know how difficult it is for the mind to look at itself? Your eyes cannot even look at the brain. How will then they look at the mind? Brain is at least physical. The mind is abstract. How will you then ever know where lust arises from or the various physical excitements arise from?
00:39So we are designed to be flawed. It does not come easily to the mind to be self-reflective. Therefore, the mind has to be trained and taught. But it comes very easily even to the uneducated mind to gape and grope, look at things outside and then go for them.
