Transcript
00:00Naudurga or any festival, Ganesh Chaturthi, Holi, Diwali, Eid or Christmas or Easter,
00:06go to them and ask them, do you know why you are celebrating this?
00:10Do they know why they celebrate?
00:13There would always be a philosophy behind the celebration.
00:17Have they cared to understand the philosophy?
00:20But we become very excited when it comes to festivals.
00:24Do we know the essence behind the festival?
00:27We don't.
00:28So we offer shallow respect.
00:31We offer hollow worship.
00:34Superficial.
00:36Internally we remain violent even towards the objects we worship.
00:41So you may worship the cow or the woman but internally you remain the beast.
