Acharya Prashant begins by questioning the lack of thought people put into having a child, contrasting it with the careful consideration given to buying even a ten-rupee item. He dismisses rote answers for having children, such as simply following what one's parents did, or the argument that he himself wouldn't exist otherwise. He states that if one relies on such superficial justifications, like claiming that since all relatives had children, one's wife must also give birth, then there is no basis for a meaningful discussion. He urges that if one is honest with their life, they must ask themselves what they are doing and why. The speaker criticizes the tendency to live life as if it were a spectacle, a TV serial, or a movie, where one simply imitates what is shown on screen. He gives the example of how the film 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' caused a surge in Indian tourism to Switzerland, implying that people's life choices are often based on mere imitation. He questions if life is meant to be lived by wanting what is depicted on screen, like a grand wedding. He emphasizes that having a child is a very personal matter connected to the soul, as it involves bringing a new life into the world. Acharya Prashant argues that it is a grave offense to bring a child into the world without first understanding who you are, what a living being is, and the profound meaning of birth. If you do not know the meaning of your own birth, giving birth to another is a crime against yourself and an even greater crime against the child. He compares the act of procreation, when done unconsciously, to other involuntary bodily functions like excretion. Just as one is unaware of the process of digestion, people unconsciously produce a child. He concludes by stating that any act performed in unconsciousness is a sin, but giving birth in such a state is the greatest of all sins. He asserts that if you commit murder in a state of unconsciousness, it is a lesser sin than giving birth to someone in a state of unconsciousness. This, he calls, is the greatest of sins.
