Acharya Prashant highlights the immense scale of violence and destruction inherent in modern human consumption, noting that even simple items like clothes, electronics, and mobile phones involve hidden violence. He explains that while people feel bad seeing a puppy kicked, they remain oblivious to the massive slaughter happening away from their eyes. He argues that a better way of living is possible, but it requires moving beyond individual consciousness and selfishness. Spirituality should not be a tool for private liberation alone; helping others is often the best way to help oneself. He emphasizes that while humans have used their intelligence for destruction and killing, that same intelligence can and must be redirected toward creation and preservation.
