Acharya Prashant responds to a woman who feels depressed and suicidal after being deceived and physically used by a man. He begins by questioning why she considers herself the primary culprit and unworthy of living. He acknowledges that a clever and deceitful man trapped her with lies, but asks why she is punishing herself when the greater fault lies with him. He points out that her mistake was not the physical relationship, but her over-identification with the body, which led to her current feelings of shame and humiliation. Acharya Prashant explains that the body is transient and will turn to ash, questioning why she feels as if a great treasure has been looted. He identifies her core mistake as considering herself to be only the body. This is the same error she made when she was attracted to the man's physical appearance, and she is repeating it now by being overly concerned about her own body. He states that those who live in body-consciousness get trapped by the physical appearance of others and then inflict pain upon their own bodies. He suggests that this painful incident can be a hidden blessing if she learns the lesson to rise above this body-centric view. He advises that the purpose of life is not to live as the body but to rise higher in consciousness and understanding. He encourages her to engage in activities that elevate life, such as reading, writing, learning music or dance, traveling, and excelling in her studies. He urges her to bring strength into her life to overcome her state of helplessness. The true purpose of life, he concludes, is to strengthen the mind. He asks her to, in the future, share her progress in learning and growing, rather than dwelling on this past event.
