Acharya Prashant explains a verse by Kabir Saheb, emphasizing the futility of constant movement and goal-seeking when one lacks self-knowledge. He observes that while everyone is eager to move forward and achieve something, there is a profound uncertainty regarding the destination. He argues that if a person does not know their true self, their movement is akin to that of a drunkard or someone walking in their sleep. For such an individual, any progress is harmful because they are bound to cause themselves injury. The most appropriate action for one in such a state is to stop and open their eyes, rather than continuing blindly until a painful fall forces them to wake up. The speaker further elaborates that our goals and paths are determined by who we are. If the 'self' is merely an accumulation of external influences—likened to a dustbin collecting waste—then the goals pursued by this 'self' are also artificial. Even if these goals are achieved, they bring no real satisfaction to the individual because the entity achieving them is a 'fake buildup' of dead thoughts and social conditioning. Consequently, a person may spend their entire life chasing targets, only to realize in old age that their time was wasted. Acharya Prashant concludes that this realization is often accompanied by a silent agony, as the person cannot even admit their failure to a society that measures success by material possessions like houses and cars.
