Acharya Prashant clarifies that liberation is not a state of laziness but one of intense, tireless effort. He explains that while a person driven by desire works for limited periods, a person free from desire works continuously because their motivation is selfless. He uses the example of Shri Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita, who, despite having nothing to gain or lose, remains fully engaged in the battlefield of life out of compassion. Acharya Prashant contrasts the Bhagavad Gita with the Ashtavakra Gita, noting that while the latter is philosophically pure, the former resonates more with humans because it depicts the struggle and dignity of a person acting in the world. He emphasizes that true liberation is marked by 'Karuna Kartavya' (duty born of compassion), which is more demanding than 'Kamna Kartavya' (duty born of desire). He further discusses the lives of Shri Krishna, Shri Ram, and Buddha, highlighting that their lives were often filled with personal tragedies and immense hardships, yet they continued their work for the welfare of others. He explains that the ego often avoids the true investigation of suffering because understanding the root of suffering would lead to the dissolution of the ego itself. The ego prefers to remain a 'servant' to the world or its desires just to maintain its sense of existence. Ultimately, he distinguishes between being a 'servant' to the world, which is like a butcher owning a goat, and being 'owned' by the Truth or Shri Krishna, which is akin to a mother's selfless care for her child.
