00:00We are taught from the childhood that Aham Brahmasmi or I am the center of the universe.
00:04Is it being egoistic or being spiritual?
00:06That's the highest Upanishadic statement that should never be taught to a kid.
00:11Because the one who is teaching it to a kid surely deserves some education in the first place.
00:17What do you mean by Aham Brahmasmi?
00:19Brahma is not an object.
00:20How can you tell it to a kid?
00:22I'm not talking in moral grounds.
00:25I'm just saying that this is not 2 into 2 equals to 4 that you can spoon feed to someone.
00:30This is a very very deep truth that comes only to the loving self.
00:35Otherwise it is a very meaningless thing.
00:37Aham Brahmasmi, Prajnanam Brahmas, Aham Atma Brahmasmi.
00:39You can keep narrating all day.
00:41They mean nothing.
00:42Nothing at all.
00:44But and there's a great harm.
00:46You tell it to a kid.
00:48And the kid starts thinking of herself as knowledgeable.
00:51I know the pinnacle of Vedanta.
00:54Aham Brahmasmi.
00:55Now how do you speak to the kid?
00:56The kid is already so knowledgeable.
01:00Brahmasmi is the truth behind the world.
01:04Brahmasmi is the base, the foundation of all your experiences.
01:09Something special needs to be there for the subject to experience any object.
01:18That something special is Brahmas.
01:20And there's a time for the subject to experience any place for them.
01:23...
