So also meaning, because I do think it's a very, very valid question if somebody is watching this episode and he's just happy. He has a perfect life. He is happy. There is nothing he's asking for. He's simply fulfilled. There is really no reason to continue listening to this conversation.

But I do think that either it hasn't been like this all the time, that person, first of all, went through some type of development or process, or the winning streak is going to end at some point.

Yes, and I mean, nowadays, if you want to calm your mind, the first practice that is being recommended to you is like meditation practices, most probably, yes. You know, if you come, for example, to any type of retreat place, to a temple, to a secluded place, somewhere in the nature, somewhere in the forest,

and you spend some time there, and by nature already, let's say, it's very calm, the surrounding is very calm. It definitely helps for you to calm your mind and to start developing how does it feel to be peaceful. But the reality at the same time is also that from all the people living nowadays in this world,

the majority of all of us will never be able to even spend any time at such secluded places. Their reality takes place in the cities, takes place at work, takes place in partially the modern world that is very fast-paced and crowded, let's say. But it's exactly in these places where this peace and this calm would be the most beneficial.

Because if anyway in the forest nothing is going on, you don't necessarily need to practice too much to be peaceful and calm. It is in the moment where you have so much external stimuli that are triggering you. This is then the moment in order to really bring out the quality of your meditative practices. Yes.

And this is why, like, you know, on the one side, I receive plenty, plenty of critics in terms also of how come I give so much podcast and interviews and bring all of these things outside the walls of, let's say, prior of our temple. Maybe I'm jumping a little bit, but... Overall, I do think that we humans are made to live in a community or in a society. We cannot just live by ourselves.

I do feel like it should go out there in the world.
