00:00Real love cannot be something so cheap that it starts coming naturally to you the day you are 14.
00:07Now I am 14, my hormones are active, my glands are overactive, there is puberty, so I am in love.
00:15And I couldn't have been in love at the age of 10 or 11.
00:18How is it so that love of the kind that we know of happens only after you cross a certain age?
00:24Obviously that's not love, that's something of the body.
00:26And if certain hormones are taken away from the body, that kind of love cannot happen, right?
00:32So what love is that? That's just iron and magnet, sodium and water, a chemical reaction, that's what that love is.
00:38But unfortunately, even very, very intelligent people, brilliant in their fields of occupation, brilliant in dealing with the objective world,
00:51when it comes to love, they do not know their mind, they do not know what is happening within.
00:55And then they make disastrous life choices.
