Dr. K

But I want a life.

I want to be able to live.

I want to be able to hold my head up high.

I want these kinds of things.

And so dharma kind of moves in that direction where dharma can be the substitute for all of the other desires that you have to do your duty.

And I think your duty is determined a lot by being in harmony with your environment.

So my duty as a doctor is different from my duty as a husband.

So I'm not my wife's therapist, right?

If I try to be my wife's therapist, it's a mess.

I've tried, it doesn't work.

So I think like the more people start living in service to their dharma, which then there's a whole question of how do you find your dharma?

the better off your life will be.

You may experience more pain, but like your life will feel good and it'll be easy to live.

So it's kind of like strong that way.

So the biggest catalyst is controlling your indriyas or your sensory organs.

So if we look at where do shoulds come from?

So let's be precise and scientific about this.

Where do shoulds come from?

Shoulds come from your perceptions.

So when I get told by my grandmother, oh, you'll be a wonderful doctor one day.
