00:00The constitution says everyone is equal but when we grow up in this country we are taught that
00:05everyone has a place whether that place is decided by their caste. There is diversity in the world
00:11and you cannot hold everything as equal so something has to be put above something else.
00:15Discrimination is based on my cultural conditioning, my physical conditioning or my blind
00:22desires. For example, if you are born in a particular family then you are higher than the
00:27other. That is the stupid kind of discrimination. Discretion we need. Discretion means I must know
00:34here are two books. I must know which one is useful to me in terms of giving me that which I
00:39really really really need. This is discretion. I will listen to one man because he belongs to a
00:45particular caste or because he's a Brahmin and a male Brahmin. Now this is the blind discrimination
00:50that we have to guard against.
