In response to a question about avoiding social evils and addictions to focus on a goal, Acharya Prashant explains that the goal itself must be alluring and captivating enough. When one is engaged in something truly meaningful, all kinds of addictions and the wastage of time, energy, and money will not happen on their own. When you are doing something really meaningful, you do not find the inclination to get up and waste time elsewhere. To illustrate this, he uses the analogy of playing cricket. A bowler in the middle of his run-up will not stop to order a pizza, nor will a batsman facing the bowler stop to gossip with the wicketkeeper. This is because they are in a state of attention, fully in the game out of their own volition, and they love being in the game with nothing else on their minds. This, he says, is the best way of living. However, life eventually gets us out, and when we return to the "pavilion," all kinds of distractions arise, such as fighting, over-sleeping, over-eating, smoking, or gambling. But nothing of that sort happens when you have the ball or the bat in your hand. Acharya Prashant posits that life is a rally between oneself and the one called Maya, or life itself. One cannot find time to be distracted when engaged in this rally. Therefore, temptations, addictions, and distractions cannot be avoided if you do not have a great, central purpose in life to love. One must not be spread out or scattered but always be concentrated. The wise have always spoken of "the One." If you cannot identify that one thing, then life must be a continuous movement towards it. He advises to always believe you are destined to be the highest and to reach the greatest spot possible, and therefore, to never settle down. One should constantly ask how to evolve, learn, be better, and move on. When your eyes are firmly set on greatness, all other distractions will appear very kiddish. The solution is to not live on the surface of life but to dive deep into it. When you do something, get into it; when you read, read fully; when you listen, listen deeply and be fully present. When you play, play your heart out, not for victory, but for the love of the game itself.
