Description

Acharya Prashant explains that concepts like passion, purpose, and desire have no intrinsic value; their worth is derived entirely from one's current state of suffering. Just as water only has value to a thirsty person, a purpose is only meaningful if one is in pain. He asserts that the only valid purpose in life is to remove the suffering one is currently experiencing. If there is no suffering, no purpose is required. He clarifies that if problems seem never-ending, it is because one is merely addressing superficial symptoms rather than the root cause of the suffering.
