Acharya Prashant explains that one's sensitivity to the suffering of others is directly linked to their sensitivity toward their own suffering. He posits that the attitude an individual holds toward others is identical to the attitude they hold toward themselves. If a person can tolerate or inflict violence upon others, such as animals slaughtered for food, they will inevitably tolerate their own psychological slaughter or exploitation by institutions and situations. He notes that humans are resilient to suffering only because they are comfortable seeing others suffer. Conversely, those who cannot tolerate the enslavement of others will not tolerate their own enslavement, leading to an internal uprising and liberation. He further describes the work of prophets and gurus as an act of self-love; because they love themselves, they cannot tolerate the suffering of others. True love is described as a rebellious and liberating force that prevents one from allowing others to mistreat them. Acharya Prashant encourages the questioner to maintain their sensitivity and angst regarding the suffering of animals, asserting that the honest desire to save lives is powerful. He concludes that just as the desire to kill leads to death, the genuine desire to save will successfully lead to saving lives through the mysterious workings of the universe.
