Psychology originally was the study of life (from psyche, "life"), but is conventionally accepted as the study of the mind and related patterns and behaviors. When one embarks upon a discovery of self, psychology plays an important role as it defines the premises from which you are proceeding--the starting point of your exploration.
On the paths of Enlightenment, knowing why you do something is more important than what you actually do. The information here is presented to provide a starting point of the understanding of self--how you make decisions and perceive the Universe around you.
This is the first talk given in a lecture series called Psychfest held in the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur. The speaker is Gopi Krishna, a student of physics (as is made obvious by the T-shirt zoom-in in the video!)
It covers the basics of the psyche, as a valid experience to the one we know already, and also analyzes its contents.
