Acharya Prashant explains that to the extent there is clarity, one must act on what one knows to be right. He points out that the questioner is in a state of stalemate where her internal state and external situations are frozen, leading to continuous suffering because she does not act. The same thoughts and problems persist because they have become an established, unchanging system. Neither her internal condition nor her external circumstances are changing, which is a state of suffering. To break this stalemate, Acharya Prashant advises that one must take a step in some direction. He uses the analogy of a chess game: moving even one piece can change the entire game. Taking action opens up new possibilities. He clarifies that the thoughts troubling her at night are a result of unfulfilled work during the day. The pending, incomplete tasks of the day circle in the mind at night. If she performs the necessary actions during the day, the burden of the night will be reduced. The issue is not about understanding why others behave as they do, but about one's own action in response. The real question is why she maintains the same closeness with people who cause her pain. This is a matter of action (Karma), not just questions and answers. Knowledge that does not translate into action is useless and will only cause more suffering. The thoughts that haunt her are a call to action. He states that her current habit is to absorb whatever happens into her mind and start thinking about it, turning the mind into a furnace where things have been cooking for years. He advises her not to cook so much in her mind and to throw out what is already cooked, rotten, or burnt. Acharya Prashant dismisses the justification of being bound by "blood relations." He asserts that such attachments are rooted in either greed or fear. The fear of losing someone implies a greed to keep them for some perceived benefit. He explains that spirituality is about moving beyond body-based identities. One must choose between Dharma (right action) and Adharma (wrong action), truth and falsehood, rather than being stuck in concepts like family. The desire to have both the cage of security and spiritual freedom is a contradiction that cannot be fulfilled.
