You say, my identity is with the cosmos. I am a product of this cosmos. It's called Aham Brahmasmi. That means I am that, which is the ultimate. So first this identity, then education. Because education is empowerment. If limited identity is empowered, it will do terrible things. See, you can, you know, we have a program in India and also we did some in Pennsylvania and Kentucky.

This is called as inner freedom for the imprisoned. Our programs are mandatory in Southern India. It's done wonders for these unfortunate, you know, convicts who are locked up for a very, very long period. Some of them on the death row for 15, 20 years in India. They don't get hanged, but they're on the death row going for one more appeal, one more appeal, those kind of people.

So, thousands of people, they have transformed their lives with these programs. Within the prisons, we conduct these things. So, anyway, so when we are doing this, what I realize is, The only problem with him is limited identity. He is intelligent. Actually, he is far more resourceful than the people, fools who are outside on the street. I find them very vibrant, high-energy individuals.

Only problem is their identity is so small. My well-being is everything. I want this to be well. I don't care what happens to that. But suppose somebody says, oh, this is my family. What did they do? They included that also into their identity. And suddenly the question of doing any harm to them doesn't arise because this is yours.

No, no. I'm saying let's go one step at a time. You are an individual. Okay. Then you raise a family. Suddenly your wife and your children or your husband and your children or whatever, suddenly they become a part of your life. You're even willing to die for them. Okay. Now you say, I belong to this community. Now you're willing to live and die for that community. Now you say, I'm this nation.

Now you say, I belong to this community. Now you're willing to live and die for that community. Now you say, I'm this nation.

You're willing to live and die for that nation. So what is this? You're enlarging your identity. I see. So all crime on this planet, all evil on this planet, all genocides on this planet, all the most horrendous things that human beings have done is a product of limited identity. Ah. That makes perfect sense. I'll take the worst example. I'm always known to take the worst examples. Okay.

The worst example you can take is Adolf Hitler. What is wrong with this man? He's super competent. There are many people, thousands and thousands of people with the same mindset. But fortunately, they're incompetent. Right. The guy is too good an organizer and competent. So, suddenly he will multiplies, all right? See, human beings cause pain to each other in so many different ways.

But this is an industrial level of suffering he creates. What is that? That is not because he has a different intent. There are so many people with the same intent. But it's a different level of competence. So when this happens, what do you think? Human competence becomes a curse. understood. That should never be so. Human intelligence and competence should never be a curse.
