Acharya Prashant uses an analogy of an old car to explain the nature of mental disturbances and desires. He recounts his experience learning to drive an old Premier Padmini, which would make various noises. When the car was started on a cold winter morning, it would make a lot of noise. His driver explained that some noises, like those from the belt or bearings, disappear once the car warms up. Indeed, after driving for five to ten minutes, these sounds would cease. Similarly, when the car was stationary and in neutral, the silencer would make a noise. The driver pointed out that this only happened at low RPMs; once the engine's RPM increased as the car gained speed, the noise would stop. Another issue was the noise from the chassis, shock absorbers, doors, and seats. The driver's solution for this was to load the car with weight, explaining that a loaded car grips the road better and makes less noise, whereas an empty car makes more noise. Acharya Prashant then connects this analogy to the human condition, particularly for those troubled by the 'noises' in their minds, which he identifies as 'vasana' (lust or deep-seated desires). He suggests that if your 'car' (life) is making too much noise, it is because it is empty, stationary, and cold. The solution is to fill it, drive it, and warm it up. This means engaging in life with purpose and passion. The noise of desire will not vanish completely, but it will be significantly reduced. He concludes by stating that if your mind is preoccupied with lust, it's not because you are a sinner or something is wrong with your body, but because you have strayed from meaningful work. An idle mind, like a stationary car, is noisy. He gives the example of a soldier on the front lines who is so engaged in his duty that he has no time for such thoughts. The remedy for a mind plagued by desire is to find a higher, real purpose and move your life towards that destination. Your attention will naturally shift away from such distractions.
