Transcript
00:00All the Newtonian laws are invalid in the sense that they are only approximate.
00:04But have the textbooks been revised to accommodate that knowledge?
00:08No.
00:08I am a microscope, you see, every day.
00:11So what is truth?
00:12I am not seeing.
00:13What I am seeing is something which has got disturbed by what I am using to observe, to
00:19see you.
00:19What does that tell about human nature?
00:21In spite of knowing fully well that what you call as certain or available to determination
00:28is not certain at all, is still all the courses of the institution deal with certainty, don't
00:35they?
00:35Yeah, whatever they do.
00:36Don't they?
00:37So what does that tell you about human nature?
00:41That we have a deep craving for certainty, that's for a deeply psychological reason.
00:48If it is admitted by all of us, the entire world, that nothing is certain, nothing is
00:56really reproducible, then it would be an assault on the ego.
01:02Because the ego cannot breathe, cannot live in total uncertainty.
