In response to a question about a rooster named Jeetu being his teacher, Acharya Prashant clarifies that he did not mean it in the sense that people consider someone their Guru. He had considered the rooster, Jeetu, his Guru in the sense that one can learn a lot about oneself by observing nature. There are many things about oneself that become clear if one is observing nature. The benefits of being close to nature are twofold: first, you learn about your own tendencies, and second, you realize how much of what you call your mind or your being is not natural but social. The speaker then shares anecdotes about the rooster, whose name was not 'Jeetu' but 'G2', which stood for 'Generally Gumshuda' (Generally Lost). He describes how the rooster would walk straight and collide with a pole, and then get angry at the pole as if the pole had hit it. This, he says, is not just the rooster's story but the story of all of us; we are all 'G2', generally lost. We don't know what our tendencies are. He also mentions another animal, a dog named 'Koham' (Who am I?), who once attacked G2. The speaker explains that the story of the rooster is the story of all of us. We are also like that. We are all 'G2', generally lost. We don't know where we are going. Acharya Prashant explains that the story of the rooster is our story. We are all like that. We are all 'G2' - generally lost. We don't know where we are going. He further elaborates on the difference between humans and animals. An animal is content with food and drink, but humans have a deeper restlessness and need something more from life. The purpose of human life is to be free from life itself, which is the fundamental difference between a human and an animal. An animal just lives, whereas a human has to live to be free from life. A person who does not have this purpose in life is like an animal. We usually call a person an animal when they commit violence, but the biggest sign of being an animal is to just eat, drink, have fun, and procreate. He quotes Kabir Saheb: "A carnivorous person is in the company of a demon. Do not associate with them, it disrupts contemplation." He explains that truth and non-violence go together. Non-violence is another name for non-duality. Where there is duality, there will be violence. A person who is moving towards the scriptures will naturally become non-violent. The more you observe animals and see that you are just like them, the harder it becomes to harm them or eat them. You realize the animal is your brother. The argument that eating plants also involves killing is addressed by stating that one should commit the minimum necessary violence to survive. The difference lies in the level of consciousness. Plants are at the lowest level of consciousness, so eating them is the minimum necessary violence for survival.
