The intellect then functions merely as a servant, justifying and protecting these instinct-driven choices with manufactured logic. As a result, much of what we call individuality, decision-making, love, ambition, and even morality is often rooted in primitive survival and reproductive drives. True freedom, the speaker argues, begins with self-observation recognizing the hidden forces operating within us. Without this awareness, we are like a boat carried by the wind, mistaking instinct for agency. 🎧 Listen to Acharya Prashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2QmVEAAnsNE7Xs0MW0Li8Y?si=09fbcbc7c99c469b&nd=1&dlsi=2d753e5523df4ceb Music Credits: Milind Date ~~~~~~~
