Acharya Prashant addresses the common tendency to think in collective terms, such as 'we', rather than individual terms like 'I'. He argues that thinking in the language of 'we' leads to the destruction of time and energy because the crowd has no consciousness or life of its own. When an individual identifies with a collective, they lose their individuality and become subject to the influence and whims of others. He asserts that the greatest crimes in the world are committed by crowds or collective identities, and that true individuality, or the awakened 'I', cannot commit crimes against oneself or existence. He emphasizes that the 'other' is often a source of misery and that one must take personal responsibility for their life, sight, and understanding to truly own their time and energy. He further explains that most people's attempts to 'channelize' their energy are driven by memory and external influences rather than pure intelligence. Often, what one considers their own desire is actually a result of social conditioning or manipulation, such as advertising. This false sense of 'I' leads to a life of slavery where one's time and energy are consumed by the selfish interests of others, like friends or corporations. Acharya Prashant advises that one should critically examine whether their goals and targets are truly their own or imposed by external forces. He warns that a life spent fulfilling others' agendas leads to eventual regret when one realizes their time has been wasted on trivialities. Finally, Acharya Prashant critiques the desire to be 'unique' or to stand out from the crowd. He suggests that the urge to appear different is rooted in a sense of inferiority and a constant comparison with others. True uniqueness is inherent in every individual because nature does not repeat itself; therefore, trying to be unique is a redundant and foolish pursuit that gives too much importance to others. He illustrates this with examples of people who perform absurd actions just to look different, noting that their focus remains on the crowd rather than their own well-being. He concludes by encouraging the listener to focus on what is right and appropriate for themselves, rather than seeking validation through comparison or uniqueness.
