00:00I don't want to study, but parents have said if you don't get promoted to the next class, you won't
00:07get the bicycle.
00:09So I'll say fine, I have to earn that promotion and for that 40% would suffice, right?
00:16Now how much would I put into my studies?
00:20Only enough to get 40%.
00:23That's hypocrisy.
00:25And that comes from dependence on the other.
00:30I don't want to do what you are making me do.
00:33So I'll do it to the minimum possible.
00:39Not only that, I'll lie.
00:43I'll oblige.
00:45I'll obey.
00:47Only to the extent verifiable.
00:51But wherever things are not verifiable, which means wherever I cannot be caught, I'll play myself.
01:00I'll remain who I am.
01:02That's the condition of every social being.
01:08Our conduct does not really correspond to our deep desires.
01:17We'll be right back to our deep desires.
01:19We'll be right back to our deep desires.
01:20We'll be right back to our deep desires.
01:20We'll be right back to our deep desires.
