Questioner: How do I utilise my time better during this self-isolation period so that my devotion in him is strengthened and what are the things that I need to keep a check upon during this free time?
Acharya Prashant: All right. Keep a check upon yourself. There’s nothing else to keep a check upon, even the virus is not to be checked, the virus has simply no intentions to invade you and destroy you.
You have to check your own tendency to go and touch the virus. The virus was residing happily, peacefully in some jungle, he was coexisting with the bats and there are thousands of such viruses that belong to the wild. They are nicely existing there since countless years. They are not malicious, they have no intention to harm human beings.
Human beings in their great smartness, in their progressiveness, industriousness, driven by their intellect, do all kinds of things to the wild and to the viruses.
Check yourself what is it that you do in your confident intellectual dimension that will turn out to be self-destructive. Watch out against yourself, that’s the number one job.
Number two, read as much spiritual literature as you can. These weeks or months will not come again. This is surely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. There have not been many generations who have had this opportunity, where they have been forcibly given periods of isolation.
