Acharya Prashant explains that the path of alertness and the path of bhakti yoga, which involves submitting actions to God, are fundamentally the same. He points out that human actions are typically self-centered, driven by a small, insecure personal domain. People mistakenly believe they are working for others, such as family or organizations, but in reality, they are serving their own limited self-interests. This self-service is an endless and unfulfilling cycle because the ego is inherently incomplete and always demands more. Submitting actions to God means ceasing to work for this petty personal self and instead connecting with something beyond one's own narrow dimension.
