dekhiye, sentiment kya cheez hai? Sentiment naam hai shaitan ke activation ka. insaan ke andar ek cheez hai, us ko shaitan activate karta hai, to woh emotion ban jata hai. woh is waqt insaan shaitan ke, yaani shaitan ke asar mein aa jata hai.

to emotion ko le kar ke aadmi soche aur iqdam kare, to woh to us se shaitan ko follow kiya. us ne use toba karna chahiye, use toba karna chahiye. yeh mein keh sakta hoon.
