Acharya Prashant explains that dreams are a sign of being unconscious and disconnected from reality. He challenges the popular notion that dreaming big is necessary for success, arguing that such ideas are foolish and misleading. He points out that dreaming always happens at the cost of the present moment; if one dreams, they inevitably miss what is happening right now. People often resort to dreaming as an escape from their current suffering or suffocating lives, much like using drugs to find temporary relief in a world of imagination. However, this escape is futile because one must eventually return to the same stagnant reality, often finding the pain magnified. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that instead of dreaming about change, one should look directly at the present, understand it, and take the necessary actions to transform it. He concludes that true living requires opening one's eyes and being fully awake to the truth of the present moment rather than wasting time in fantasies.
