the speaker is wrong. if a place a banana into the (external) fire, the banana will burn into ash. if a place a banana into my (internal) mouth and eat it, the banana will digest in my body, transform into nutriments and what remains will be expelled as poop.

obviously, the external & the internal are different. btw, this video sounds like hinduism
There is always an official executioner. If you try to take his place, It is like trying to be a master carpenter and cutting wood. If you try to cut wood like a master carpenter, you will only hurt your hand.
