So there is need of nice eating, nice talking, nice thinking, nice behavior. Then our brain is sharp. It requires training. It is not that you can do whatever you like, and all nonsense, and your brain will be sharp.

Written? Nothing was written. Vedas was also not written. They were heard from disciplic succession. The first writing business was done by Vyāsadeva. Before that, there was nothing in writing. All Vedic scriptures, they were learned by simply hearing. That's all. The brahmacārīs will live in the direction of the spiritual master and hear in the class, and they will learn. That's all. No written book, neither there was notebook. Everything was heard by . . . (indistinct) . . . there was no need of writing.

Therefore this whole Vedic literature is called śruti. Śruti means simply hearing. There was . . . even in recent years there was a learned paṇḍita in Calcutta, and there was some . . . in the British days there was some quarrel between two Britishers, and one of them complained to the magistrate, and the magistrate inquired, "Who is your witness?" Then one of them said that "Well, there was nobody else. But there was a paṇḍita. He was worshiping in that bank of the Ganges. So we had some quarrel. He has heard it."

So he was called. So he stated that, "I do not know what they talked, because they were talking in English language. But I can produce what they talked." So he produced the whole thing verbatim, that "He talked like this. He talked like this. He talked like this. He talked like this." Just like record, tape record. Just see. Even some hundred years before, the memory was so sharp. Just like tape recorder, it is recorded. This is mechanical. But by nature we have got such nice brain . . .

Just like we remember so many things of our past life. That is recorded. Actually it is recorded. Everything is recorded. How you are getting this television? Because it is recorded in the atmosphere. It is being simply transferred. Everything is recorded. But we have deteriorated in our even physical condition that we cannot produce the recorded version.

So we are making ourself dull, duller, dullest. Just like Sir George Bernard Shaw, he also stated that, "You are what you eat." So by eating process, we are making our brain dull. So there is need of nice eating, nice talking, nice thinking, nice behavior. Then our brain is sharp. It requires training.

It is not that you can do whatever you like, and all nonsense, and your brain will be sharp. What is the difference between crazy and sane man? They keep nice behavior, therefore they are sane man. And if you put to you nonsense behavior, then you become crazy. This is a fact.
