[00:00:40]Were you the same when you were uh you know, uh 15 years back?

[00:00:46]You were smaller, chubbier, and now cuter, and more innocent.

[00:00:57]More badmash, okay.

[00:00:59]And as the time went by, things changed.

[00:01:04]Now you are this worried, and now unhappy, fearful, young, stressed youth and now uh when you sub sub depressed, but now now this doubting youth you have become.

[00:01:29]So things have changed.

[00:01:36]Will you remain the same next 10 years?

[00:01:41]Things will change again. So this means everything is changing. And is it changing continuously?

[00:01:50]Yes. Everything is changing continuously. Nothing is stagnant.

[00:01:56]Nothing is same. So, according to Heraclitus, we cannot bathe in the same river twice.

[00:02:13]You cannot bathe in the same river twice. Everything is changing. And according to Heraclitus, only thing that is true is change.

[00:02:49]There are If one cat dies, will cats become extinct?

[00:02:54]If you cut a tree, it's fine. Tree is a changing. You know, seed, plant, tree changing.

[00:03:01]But, the concept of tree, is it changing?

[00:03:07]It's remaining the same.

[00:03:10]15 years back, same?

[00:03:14]150 years back, concept of tree?

[00:03:19]1,500 years back, will it change in next 15 years?

[00:03:25]150 years?

[00:03:28]This means even when individual trees are changing, the concept of tree is not One human can die, but the concept of humanity is not dying.

[00:03:45]This means everything is permanent.

[00:03:52]15 years back with slight changes things were like this only somebody somebody else would have been teaching not in the same class in some other class somebody else would have been hearing and learning 150 years back somebody else would have been there 1500 years back system is it changing this means that there are certain permanent things which are not changing so according to Parmenides things are not changing everything is permanent
