equinimity or lack of equinimity is not
0:20
a question of what we are doing it's
0:23
about how we are how much control do we
0:26
have on our own thought process our
0:29
emotion our chemistry our energies to
0:31
what extent is this human mechanism in
0:34
your hands it's like
0:37
this see let's say you don't know how to
0:39
ride a
0:40
bicycle you just sat on a bicycle which
0:43
was on a stand and you were just
0:45
pedaling for fun but it came off the
0:47
stand and started
0:49
going anxiety or no hm it started going
0:54
fast fear or no started going very fast
0:58
terror or no yes but if you know how to
1:02
ride the bicycle faster it goes more
1:06
fun isn't it the same thing with this
1:09
all my life I risk my life for nothing
1:11
not for the country simply for the fun
1:14
of it every day I risk my life for
1:17
something because otherwise I can't live
1:19
without danger this my problem
1:22
i have to do something where I'm on the
1:25
edge so a whole lot of people are doing
1:28
adventure sports
1:30
why because the more you take it to the
1:33
edge there is more fun in it the
1:36
question is are you equinimous to enjoy
1:38
it or are you going to
1:40
freak so once you have taken up to a
1:43
soldier's profession I think we should
1:46
equip them to have an equinimity where
1:49
they don't suffer this on a daily basis
1:52
after all they're human beings there
1:54
will be issues within them but bringing
1:57
equinimity to the minds of our soldiers
2:00
and officers is very very important
2:02
india being so steeped in this knowledge
2:06
of how to maintain your interiority if
2:09
our soldiers don't get it I am very
2:11
pained it's very very important that our
2:15
forces should know how to be meditative
2:18
i'm repeatedly going back to this it is
2:20
in the war field that the greatest
2:22
teachings happened in this country
2:25
because it was needed most there but in
2:29
this country we are still doing the
2:31
British march like this doom doom doom
2:34
we have not brought Indianness to our
2:37
forces it's time we start doing this if
2:40
not entirely changing it overnight we
2:43
have to bring dimensions that we know
2:45
best in this country the whole world is
2:47
turning towards India for inner
2:50
well-being the United Nations has
2:52
declared
2:53
uh you know international yoga day our
2:56
prime minister is lying down on the
2:57
street and doing yoga with common people
3:00
never before such things have happened
3:03
but still our forces are denied this no
3:07
we must bring it to the excess of our
3:09
forces that our soldiers and our
3:13
officers must have the best capability
3:16
to manage their mind and their
3:17
interiority this ability must be given
3:20
to our forces for the job that they're
3:22
doing which is crucial for the making of
3:24
this nation
