Acharya Prashant addresses the internal conflict between two aspects of the mind: one that is understanding and another that remains restless and attracted to worldly objects. He emphasizes that the individual is the third entity who must choose between these two. The restless part of the mind gains power only if the individual identifies with it. He explains that as children of the divine, we possess immense power, but often lack the wisdom to use it correctly, leading us to wander far from our source. He warns that the opportunity for spiritual awakening is limited by time and energy, much like a hijacked plane with limited fuel; it is far better to awaken early in life while there is still enough 'fuel' to return to the shore.
