“I love my job as long as I'm paid for it.” Can you work without being paid? If yes, then probably there is some beginning of love. There are ten things we all like, and all liking or disliking is conditional, and the mark of love is that it survives all conditions. If you come to something that is dearer to you than life itself, then you know what love is. Love is dangerous, because it would mean you have come to something that's more precious to you than life itself.

Questioner: Namaskaram Acharya ji. My name is Sinduja. Actually, I have a confusion, not exactly a question. So my confusion is regarding passion, hobby and career. So, what if a person doesn't know what to do in his future? Like, how will his or her life end? I don't understand that.
Acharya Prashant: It would anyhow end. It is certain it will end. In some way, it would end. That's what. If you are just randomly wandering, at one point you would stop wandering because you would fall dead. Would you reach somewhere? No. Would you see something? No. That's it.
There is no rhyme or reason to the way most people live. They just allow themselves to drift. They drift till they just fall dead, that's all. I wish there were more to this story, but there is nothing. So what do I say? That's what the story of the vast majority of mankind is; drift, drift, drift, and one day suddenly just drop and you're gone. Finished. There is nothing to it. No center, no theme, no purpose, no destination really, no meaning, nothing. Meaningless, unremarkable lives. That's how we live.
