Acharya Prashant addresses the difficulty of being attentive while performing actions, explaining that the struggle arises from a long-standing habit of inattention. He clarifies that attentiveness is not a separate activity or a sixth task to be added to one's existing actions; rather, it is the complete absence of action. If attention were treated as another mental activity like analysis, it would only increase chaos. He emphasizes that as long as actions occur at the circumference of one's being, the center remains free to simply see what is happening without doing anything further. Using the analogy of a sleepwalker versus an awake person, Acharya Prashant illustrates that while their outward movements may appear identical, the essential difference lies in knowing. The sleepwalker acts without awareness, whereas the awake person knows what is happening. He asserts that knowing is not a separate, burdensome activity or a form of labor; it is the natural, central state of being awake. Just as one does not need to put in effort to see light or a wall when awake, true attention requires no additional effort or hesitation.
