Acharya Prashant responds to a 57-year-old engineer who, after recently beginning his spiritual journey, asks how he should now live his life. The speaker explains that the matter is not about the age of the body, whether one is young or old, but about consciousness. Consciousness, whether at 15 or 85, is always restless and seeks to understand, know, and be free from sorrow, confusion, and bondage. The expression of this restlessness and the perceived bondages change with age and circumstances. For instance, a young person might see the lack of a high-paying job or a partner as bondage, while an older person might see the lack of a pension or the presence of a partner as bondage. The underlying issue, however, remains the same: a fundamental discontent. The body has an age, but consciousness and the ego-tendency do not. The ego-tendency expresses itself through the body, so its manifestations change with time, place, and situation. The restlessness of a man's consciousness is expressed differently from a woman's, a young person's from an old person's, and a rich person's from a poor person's. The words and subjects of their problems differ, but the core issue is that something is not right. Spirituality is not for a specific age or class, like the Olympics; it becomes necessary for any being the moment they experience their first restlessness, be it at age 8 or 56. Just as air and food are essential for the body, spirituality is essential for consciousness. Regarding the 'do's and don'ts' of life, Acharya Prashant advises that one must first understand their own condition. The 'don'ts' are all the actions, beliefs, and decisions that have led to the current state of suffering; these must be stopped. The 'do's' cannot be a repetition of the past; they must be new. The power to know these new actions comes from the same inner clarity and inspiration that led the questioner to seek spiritual guidance in the first place. One must surrender to that inner clarity, and it will show the way forward. The new 'do's' must be a fresh start, not a continuation of old, problematic patterns.
