Description

Acharya Prashant explains that repetition is only problematic when it is associated with punishment or suffering, such as breathing while in a state of disease. In the realm of the body and the physical world, everything is inherently repetitive, including biological cycles and the movement of the sun. He suggests that one should 'stop' internally while letting the body and mind carry on their functions. This internal stopping is the only true form of newness, as the entire universe is in a state of constant movement and running. When one stops, they are no longer driven by mental turmoil or ignorance, which arise from valuing trivial matters over the truth.
