Acharya Prashant addresses a question about the nature of desires, particularly the distinction between 'good' and 'bad' desires. He begins by stating that all desires appear good to the person holding them, and no desire ever presents itself as selfish; it always comes disguised as being for the welfare of the world. He illustrates this with a story from a TikTok video: when a girl falls from her scooter, thirty men rush to help her 'selflessly,' but when two boys fall, they are met with kicks and accusations. This, he explains, shows that what we call selfless or good actions are often driven by hidden, selfish motives. He argues that we are blind to the rotten desires behind our seemingly good deeds. For instance, a corrupt person might donate 5% of their bribe money to a religious place, making it a transaction to continue their misdeeds. Similarly, he shares an anecdote about his YouTube channel, where a video with a spiritual title gets a low click-through rate, but when the title and thumbnail are made more sensational and provocative, viewership jumps significantly. He says he has to set a 'mousetrap' to lead people to Shri Krishna, as they are only drawn in by the illusion of desire fulfillment. He also dismisses concepts like the 'Law of Attraction' and 'Manifestation' as garbage. Acharya Prashant advises that to understand the true motive behind any action, one must observe what outcome, if not achieved, causes pain. This reveals the underlying selfish desire. He gives examples like a man distributing blankets who gets hurt when a beggar insults him, revealing his action was for respect, not selflessness. He emphasizes that all desires are rooted in selfishness and that 'disguised desire' (chhadma kaam) is the most dangerous. Before one can practice desireless action (nishkam karma), one must first practice 'simple action' (saral kaam), which means being honest about one's desires. He concludes by differentiating between worldly pleasure (sukh), which he likens to the temporary relief of scratching an itch, and liberation or bliss (anand), which is the state of having no itch at all.
