00:00Sir, in my school, my best friend tops me like 10 marks or so in almost every test.
00:08And I feel the only thing maybe I'm actually like better than other people in skill-wise is computers.
00:18What's your name?
00:19Abheer.
00:20Abheer. Nice.
00:23What does that mean?
00:24I think it means the mighty one, but...
00:28Fearless.
00:30See, your first thing is to allow yourself to go fearlessly into whatever is in front of you,
00:45irrespective of whether you like it or dislike it.
00:49Here's this book, right?
00:51I pick it up.
00:52I don't know anything about it.
00:54If I already have a story, I won't be doing any justice to this book.
01:00I pick this up.
01:01I read it.
01:03I read it.
01:04And now if there is a natural resonance, without prejudice, without concepts, without bias,
01:12now if there is a natural resonance, I'll find...
01:14I don't know how long I've been reading it.
01:19I stood to read a page maybe.
01:24And I've passed chapters.
01:28Right?
01:30I don't know how long the clock just ticked away and time just slipped.
01:37Do you get this?
01:39Equally it is possible, I picked this book up.
01:42And that is important to remember as a student and also as a guardian.
01:46Equally it is possible, I picked this up.
01:48I have no particular aversion to books.
01:52And I was being as honest as possible.
01:55And still, after two pages, I say, okay.
01:59Okay.
02:01Okay.
02:02And that is equally fine.
02:04It would be unrealistic
02:07to expect that scientists would be great painters as well.
02:13Right?
02:13Right?
