At 7:57, He asks the buddhist monk "How do you see your life". He responds that within the next 10 years he will become the highest monk hoping to impress people. This is the ego taking over. The monk has a long way to go. He projects way into the future with expectations of his achievement via dreams and fantasy. He sets himself up for failure if the results are not achieved. This could lead to disappointment, lower self esteem, and many other ailments of suffering. Focus on Here and Now.
