00:00There are millions of people who keep on devotional worship to form.
00:04So sir, what is wrong with worship to form?
00:06Have you noticed a difference between the Buddha statues that you find in India, Afghanistan
00:11versus the ones that you find in, let's say, Japan?
00:15The Buddha in Japan looks extremely Japanese.
00:18There is a reason why the Buddha grew a flat nose when he reached Japan.
00:24Because Japanese cannot worship an Indian-looking Buddha.
00:27The form that you worship is nothing but a reflection of your own self.
00:32The form that you worship is coming from your own imagination.
00:36And the form that you worship is coming from your own identity.
00:39It's like worshiping your own shadow, thinking that it is separate from you.
00:43And that's why those who have known have always said that the truth is formless.
