Acharya Prashant explains how to resolve a dilemma. When faced with two paths, one should ask them, "Where have you come from, and where are you going?" One must also ask oneself why there is such a strong desire to choose one path over the other. While asking these questions, one should not be afraid of the thought that since one has to walk on some path in life, why not choose one of these two. As Shri Krishna has said, everyone acts under the influence of nature, so one must choose some path. However, one should not make the mistake of choosing between two available wrong paths. There are paths of which you can know nothing as long as you are walking on the wrong path. Try rejecting the wrong paths and see if the right path opens up. Do not give the cheap and false argument that you walked the wrong path because you could not find the right one. The right path is always open and available; you are not finding it because you have a great attraction in your mind to walk the false path. You are unable to leave the false path, and to justify walking on it, you say you had no other option. This is a dishonest argument. You have to stop first and see if the right path opens up. When your hands are full of false options, how will you find the optionless truth? When your whole life is filled with false options, whatever you get will be from within these options. Leave aside joy, you are not even happy. You keep saying day and night that you want happiness. You are so crazy for happiness that you call the time for drinking alcohol 'happy hours'. You make a movie called 'Happy Bhaag Jayegi' (Happy ran away). Just by naming her Happy, she will not give you happiness; she doesn't have it herself. All this has happened because you have a total of fifty options, and you keep trying them one by one. I say, if you have found happiness in these, then happily stay engrossed in them. Then there is no need for any truth, science, or spirituality. But you haven't found it. The fiftieth of these fifty options is hope. When your heart is broken by the forty-nine, you hold on to the fiftieth, which is hope. Hope gives you the strength to start again from one, two, three, four. It is more fatal to repeatedly try in the wrong place than not to try at all. The motivation of today's era, which has filled us with the passion of 'never give up', is very poisonous. One mistake is not trying, and the second mistake is to keep trying in the wrong place even after being beaten repeatedly and ruining your life. Is there such a thing as discretion or not? Will you not carefully examine the paths you are walking on?
