Acharya Prashant explains that the inertia and difficulty in maintaining focus on spiritual study is not a lack of understanding, but a result of the modern age's attention deficit. He points out that technology, economics, and development have created a culture of quick gratification where everything is pre-cooked and easily served. This environment of convenience, from one-minute social media videos to instant deliveries and easy academic grading, fails to prepare an individual for the rigor, labor, and self-dissolution required on the spiritual path. He notes that when everything is available at the click of a button, the concept of prolonged spiritual practice or penance becomes difficult for the modern mind to accept. He further discusses how modern conveniences allow people to save time, yet they often do not know how to use that saved time meaningfully. Using the example of a pilgrimage that once required great sacrifice but can now be completed by helicopter, he questions the value of reaching a destination instantaneously without the journey. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that time has only one legitimate purpose: to help an individual move into the timeless. He advises against saving time by cutting short the study of scriptures or teachers, suggesting instead that one should save time from miscellaneous nonsense and dedicate it to the right cause. He concludes that investing time in the service of the timeless is far more important than merely seeking speed or convenience.
