Our species has increased its population and consumed so much that it has destroyed everything. Humans will be the first and only species to wipe themselves out completely. Nothing is surviving on this Earth except us. Now we need new ways of living. We can't live in the old ways. Old desires won't work now. The doer has to be changed, and that's why we need the Gita—not to reach heaven, but to save Earth.

Questioner: You had said at one point that 2025 is going to be a decisive year, the most dangerous year. So, I want to understand from you why you said this. Why is 2025 going to be dangerous for us?
Acharya Prashant: These people have come to say, 'Happy New Year,' and right at the start, it's clear that 2025 is going to be the most dangerous year so far. 'Scary New Year' instead of 'Happy New Year.'
The reason isn't just sitting here in the next one, two, or ten years; it's a very broad and long reason, and its impact will be felt for centuries. There are some wounds that heal in a year or four years; we don't call those very dangerous injuries. But this is like a disease that they say can't be treated even in 100,000 years. They say even on Centennial and Millennial time scales, it won't be possible even in them and the clock is ticking; we don't have much time. That's why I said, after much careful thought and responsibility, that this is the most dangerous New Year in human history so far — 2025.
