00:00Fear is something that is good for your physical survival.
00:03Fear is an evolutionary tool.
00:05Helps you live a longer life.
00:07But it is not good for your consciousness.
00:09What's the point in living a long life if life is full of fear?
00:14Please tell me.
00:14What would you prefer?
00:16Living for a hundred years, all afraid and insecure, doubtful, shivering.
00:21Or living for, just let's say, like Bhagat Singh, only 23 years.
00:25But bravely, stoutly, like a man.
00:27What would you prefer?
00:28That's what.
00:28Because we are not animals.
00:30No animal ever prefers to be martyred.
00:33No animal would ever say, I want a short but meaningful life.
00:36For animals, body is everything.
00:38You are human beings precisely because for you, body is not everything.
00:42You can overrule your body.
00:44You can dictate your body.
00:45For you, body is just an instrument.
00:47You can use your body towards a higher purpose.
00:49That's why you are human beings.
00:51You can do that.
00:55You can do it.
00:56No animal.
00:57You can do it.
00:58You can do it.
00:59And you can do it.
01:00You can do it.
01:01This is it one of the lavoro.
01:02You can do it.
