See, the thing is this, any machine for that matter, Depending on what is the volume of friction there is within it, accordingly, it'll reduce its ability to do things. If you take a car, let's say, if you take the best car in the world and if you reduce the lubrication oil, It'll go dead in no time because of friction. So, this also is the same thing.

People's thoughts and emotions are in frictious condition. So, ordinary things that we can do feel stressful and all, almost all human misery is manufactured in human mind. Isn't it so? So it's on the inside, you're saying? I'm not saying. You tell me. Yeah.

Unless you're in a famine or a war zone or something where somebody can cause some trouble to you, rest of the time it's all self-help, isn't it?

No, I'm saying physically if somebody's shooting a bullet at you, that's a different matter. Yeah. But right now we are poking ourselves all the time. Why? The important thing is, see, to get human intelligence to its present state, it's taken millions of years of evolution. From an amoeba to make you like this, it's taken millions of years of evolution.

It's just one word, but actually tremendous amount of research and development has happened to get you to this place. But now that brain is trouble for most people. 95% of the people use this brain to harm themselves. Because if we give you something sharp, if I ask you a simple question, do you want your intelligence or intellect to be sharp or blunt? It's a question.

Sharp. So if I give you something sharp, how you hold it is very important. If you don't know which is the blade end, which is the handle, if you hold it tight, it'll hurt you more and more. Or if you're unconscious and you're like this, like this, like this, intestines may come out, you know. Why we don't give a knife to a child's hand? Not because knife is dangerous.

Has it ever happened a knife popped up and stabbed someone? It never happened. Knife is not dangerous. It's the people who hold it and how they hold it. So, right now we've been given an intelligence. You know, there is a… The biologists today are saying the DNA difference between you and a chimpanzee is only 1.23%. 1.23% is not much of a difference. It's not far off the jungle. Not far.

So physiologically, that's how close we are to a chimpanzee. But in terms of our intelligence and awareness, we are worlds apart. So essentially, we have an intelligence for which we don't have a stable enough platform. If you don't create a stable platform, stable chemistry, stable energy, stable physiology, if you don't create that, your intelligence will work against you.
