Acharya Prashant explains that one must be both vigorously enthusiastic for a cause and strategically skilled like a soldier. He states that a good soldier does not waste himself on unnecessary battles but preserves his energy for the larger war. While it is possible to stop one person from harming an animal, it expends valuable resources. The real goal is to save the billions of beings who are suffering, and wasting energy on a single minor incident is an injustice to the larger cause. A spiritual warrior is outnumbered and must be strategic, avoiding petty fights that could lead to legal trouble. He advises that a religious warrior must be extremely intelligent, even cunning, in the service of Truth. Unlike those who have cunningness at their core, the warrior has Truth at their core and uses cunningness as a tool. He references Shri Krishna's strategic advice in the Mahabharata as an example of this principle. One must have Krishna, or Truth, at the center and then use Maya, or illusion, liberally. He quotes Kabir Saheb, who said that one who cheats the great cheater, Maya, is to be revered. The speaker dismisses the common, misleading image of saints as simple, detached old men who only dispense moral advice. He asserts that a man of Truth must be extremely sharp and use all his resources, including his intellect and cunning, for the sake of Truth. Instead of being paralyzed by the hurt of witnessing injustice, one should acknowledge it and use it as fuel. This hurt should become a resource that hardens one's resolve and makes one more charged up to fight the larger battle intelligently.
