33:58 – Q&A Begins – Q1 - We take oath on the Bhagavad Gita as recruits in CDM. I have come to realise over time that the Bhagavad Gita, Ramayan and the Mahabharath are great texts. I wish to let go of the Kada (steel bracelet} and Kesh (uncut hair) and change my religion from Sikhism. How do I do this without getting stressed?
39:34 – Q2 – (1) Should our religion and our ancient spiritual knowledge go together?
(2) In the military we are trained to be apolitical and irreligious. In this scenario, where do we draw the line? To what extent can we be religious and demonstrate it?
44:59 – Q3 – All our scriptures teach us many aspects of spiritual life and worldly life. We, in the military have incorporated a lot from the Western world and teach it here. Do you think it is possible to do the same with our Scriptures, if we include them in our processes of growing and learning. Should we include everything at the same time? Every mind grows at its own pace…So what do we do?
50:07 – Q4 - The Bhagavad Gita talks about not being attached to one’s work or its results. But our present day Management techniques talk about being passionate and completely involved about one’s work and if it ends in failure,
it leads to feelings of anger and frustration. How do we find a middle path between these two?
55:18 – Q5 - As a parent, I want to know how to get the knowledge in our spiritual scriptures across to the younger generation, especially our own children, so that even if it does not make sense to them now, they can use the knowledge at a later date, when they may really need it.
01:00:05 – Q6 – We are under stress 24 hours a day – job related, at the home front, financial stress and so on. Other than doing yoga and meditation every morning, is there anything else which we can do to bring down our stress?
01:04:53 – Q7 - You spoke a lot about the importance of Sanskrit. How do I get my child to learn Sanskrit?
