00:00:00.000 Do you think that's the highest value of a man, a man of integrity?
00:00:04.480 No, no. I'm saying to make things happen in the world.
00:00:10.680 See, you are trying to drop like 10 commandments from whatever I'm speaking. Don't do that.
00:00:17.100 No, that's not what I'm doing. I'm trying to see for you because I'm very comfortable with who I am as a man.
00:00:22.300 I'm not somebody that's uncomfortable.
00:00:24.040 I didn't say that.
00:00:24.720 No, but listen, at one point in my life, you're in search,
00:00:30.320 and then you get very clear with your life, and you pursue.
00:00:34.100 But I love talking to other people who have clear philosophies to see what...
00:00:39.300 What if somebody doesn't have a philosophy, but they have clarity?
00:00:44.280 I think clarity is a byproduct of having clear philosophies.
00:00:47.880 No, no, no.
00:00:48.860 Philosophy means you become a one-track mind.
00:00:52.060 and with a one-track mind you look like you're clear but you will collide with something all
00:00:58.180 fanatics are very clear they're even willing to die because they're very clear where they're going
00:01:05.260 it's very dangerous those people who will not let you make the world peaceful what what clear
00:01:11.880 belief system do you have what what is what do you believe in that nobody can contradict you
00:01:17.100 Like where you can't go and say, man, I never thought about it that way.
00:01:21.540 I don't believe anything, nor do I disbelieve anything.
00:01:24.940 I just look at life the way it is.
00:01:29.220 Isn't that important?
00:01:30.540 If you want to navigate through this life, you must see things the way they are,
00:01:35.120 not the way you want to see.
00:01:36.760 The moment you believe something, you will see it the way you want to see it.
00:01:40.120 Then how do you know between right and wrong?
00:01:42.380 How do you know between right and wrong?
00:01:44.160 Well, if it works for this life and every life around you,
00:01:47.760 that's the right thing to do.
00:01:50.300 If it doesn't work for life around you, it's not the thing to do.
00:01:53.660 It's not about right and wrong.
00:01:55.380 What is appropriate to the life around you right now?
00:01:58.680 That's what you do.
00:02:02.020 What is appropriate for the life around you right now?
00:02:05.020 That's what you do.
00:02:05.740 So you're saying what may be right today could have been wrong 100 years ago?
00:02:10.240 Oh, yes, of course.
00:02:11.100 Tell me more.
00:02:11.660 See right now in Tamil Nadu, where I come from now, a great hero a thousand years ago
00:02:19.740 meant , this means one who has slain thousand elephants, he's a heroic man.
00:02:28.600 Because at that time that guy did it with a spear or a sword and there were elephants
00:02:32.760 and elephants everywhere.
00:02:34.160 So if you kill one thousand elephants, you are honored as a great hero.
00:02:39.320 Today, if you touch one, you will be in prison.
00:02:44.360 Things have changed.
00:02:46.600 Situation has changed.
00:02:48.540 Elephants have not changed.
00:02:51.100 Elephants are the same elephants, its life is valuable to itself.
00:02:54.240 But situation has changed.
00:02:56.260 What we think is right and wrong has changed, isn't it?
00:03:00.960 So if a hundred years from now…
00:03:03.880 In United States, I see there are lumber competitions.
00:03:07.160 I think, hopefully they're gone now,
00:03:09.580 but they were there even a few years ago. 0.90
00:03:12.460 Lumberjacks with an axe.
00:03:13.820 How quickly can you knock down a tree? 0.99
00:03:15.200 They still do it till today.
00:03:16.360 It's very competitive.
00:03:17.120 Even today, yeah.
00:03:17.920 On ESPN, till today.
00:03:18.560 So that would have been a great thing
00:03:20.420 when people came from Europe or England or wherever. 0.95
00:03:24.740 So who can cut the tree quickly?
00:03:28.220 That guy only could build his house first.
00:03:30.340 His family would be safe.
00:03:32.040 You know, things like this.
00:03:33.980 But today you want to cut down
00:03:35.400 and cut down all the sequoia trees,
00:03:37.160 because you got a big axe and you got big muscle. It's stupid to do that. At that time, it meant
00:03:43.620 something. If you're a man, if you can cut down a tree quickly, you could build a house, you could
00:03:47.980 do this, you could build a bridge, you could build a boat. So many things were there. So I'm saying
00:03:52.720 what's right today may not be appropriate tomorrow. So that's why it is very important
00:03:58.080 that you're looking at life for what it is and do the right thing for that, not some fixed idea.
00:04:03.340 You don't think there's 100% right things to do today, 100 years ago, 1,000 years ago?
00:04:09.940 I mean, you can't be saying that.
00:04:11.040 See, anything that nurtures life around you is the right thing to do.
00:04:15.820 Anything that destroys life around you is not the right thing to do, all right?
00:04:20.740 Because we are life.
00:04:22.480 We didn't drop from somewhere else, we are life.
00:04:25.400 The highest value that we have is life.
00:04:28.800 So if you have one philosophy, and I have another philosophy,
00:04:33.340 Inevitably, we will fight somewhere.
00:04:37.280 Philosophy is one thing.
00:04:38.560 You believe one thing, I believe another thing.
00:04:40.840 We will fight somewhere, it's just a question of time.
00:04:46.160 Why are we creating such divisions and trying to patch up?
00:04:50.680 As human beings, we breathe the same air, we come from the same soil.
00:04:54.940 If you and me are buried in the same place, the worms eat us and make us the same soil once again,
00:05:00.640 why are we not getting the point right now?
