Description

Acharya Prashant clarifies that he does not simply do what he likes or what feels good; rather, he performs what is his duty and righteousness. He explains that following one's duty often requires going against personal desires and can involve significant pain and hardship. He emphasizes that life for a human being is an inevitable struggle and that no one is free from suffering or conflict as long as they possess a physical body. The distinction between a common person and a seeker is not the absence of pain, but the purpose for which they endure it. He urges the listener to abandon the false notion that a spiritual person lives a life of carefree whims. Instead, he compares life to the battlefield of Kurukshetra, stating that while everyone must fight, one should ensure they are fighting the right battle for the right cause. He concludes that since suffering and the shedding of blood are inevitable in human existence, it is wise to endure them for a noble and righteous purpose rather than wasting one's life on the wrong struggles.
