Acharya Prashant responds to a question about whether the way the Almighty made us is the perfect way to live. He begins by stating that the Almighty has not made us, as the Almighty loves us too much to do so. He explains that all the Almighty can love is Himself. Therefore, the Almighty has not made you, but has appeared in your form. You are the Almighty, not the Almighty's creation. This understanding should end the question of searching for something else, as when you are the total reality, you have no obligation to search for anything outside of yourself. The speaker acknowledges the questioner's underlying wonder about the absurdity of all the running and searching in life. He compares the turmoils of modern man to those of ancient man. Ancient man's troubles pertained to his body, physical fears, and insecurity; they were not cultivated sufferings. Modern man, however, has retained most of the ancient man's challenges and added a hundred more. For instance, ancient man feared his hidden fruit would be stolen, while modern man fears the taxman will raid his vaults. The fundamental fear is the same. Similarly, while ancient man was concerned with getting a mango, he was not worried about finding a grand purpose in life, a concern that plagues modern man. The speaker concludes that man has emerged from the jungle, but the jungle has not gone out of the man. He illustrates this with an analogy of dogs in an industrial area. The dogs are completely absorbed in their own world—fighting over garbage, bones, and territory—oblivious to the sophisticated technology and immense buildings surrounding them. Their consciousness cannot make sense of these things. Similarly, humans are in the middle of the vast universe without understanding it, busy with their own small pieces of garbage. The attempt to solve problems using the mind, whether through man-made inventions or religions, has only resulted in bigger problems because the mind can never be the problem-solver. The answer, he suggests, lies in simple stillness and innocent faith. The issue is that we have too much trust in our own limited knowledge. Once you see the great limitations of what you know, your resistance to change drops, and it becomes easier to let change happen.
