Acharya Prashant states that for someone who eats the bread of slavery, talk of ultimate liberation is unbecoming. He imagines God smiling and asking such a person, "You eat the bread of slavery, yet you talk of liberation?" The speaker clarifies that he is not advocating for one to become a capitalist or a wealthy person earning millions. Instead, he urges everyone to earn enough so that they do not have to bow their head for the sake of mere bread. He emphasizes that one should earn out of righteousness (Dharma), not out of greed, as there is a significant difference between the two. The speaker dismisses the romantic notion of becoming a renunciate in the modern world. He calls it a romantic dream to think one can become a renunciate, beg for alms, and be fed. He contrasts the past, where one could survive on fruits from gardens and fields, with the present reality. Today, there are guards outside housing societies who would beat up a beggar, and even fruits in orchards are protected with chemicals. The era when a renunciate could survive on the bounty of nature is gone. Therefore, he strongly advises, "O sons of India, talk of liberation later, first earn." Acharya Prashant strongly condemns unearned income, stating that it is better to die of hunger than to eat bread for free. He warns that if you work very little but receive a lot, it will ultimately destroy you. He explains that unearned or ill-gotten money brings a great hell upon the household, first corrupting the children and then spreading all kinds of strife. He recounts a story of Guru Nanak Dev, who, when offered bread by a wealthy man, refused it and squeezed it, causing blood to drip out, signifying that the bread was earned through exploitation. The speaker explains that sin has become easier in modern times because the perpetrator is disconnected from the victim. For instance, a government officer who receives a salary without working does not see the face of the taxpayer whose hard-earned money is paying him. However, the blood of that taxpayer is in his bread. Similarly, modern warfare and the meat industry make violence indirect and impersonal, making it easier to commit sin without feeling the direct impact. He concludes by reiterating that one must not consume what one has not rightfully earned.
