Acharya Prashant begins by questioning the audience's remembrance and respect for the Gita, citing the verse, "Nirashi nirmamo bhutva yudhyasva vigata-jvarah." He explains this as a call to become ruthless and hopeless, as nothing in the world is truly one's own, and one should not be entangled in attachments or future hopes. The right course is to perform the correct action in the present moment and to fight. He advises the audience to question the utility of the people they ruin their lives to please and to challenge the fear of those who seem powerful. He dismisses the value of impressing others with wealth or being impressed by their status, stating that these things are of no real use. He defines spirituality as, first and foremost, a rebellion against past conditioning and internal patterns. According to him, one who is not a rebel cannot be spiritual. This rebellion means rejecting what has been traditionally followed and what continuously runs within the mind. Acharya Prashant introduces the concept of maintaining a "healthy contempt" for the world. He explains that the world constantly tries to impose itself on an individual, not just through people but also through imposing structures like large corporate offices or tall buildings, which are designed to make one feel small and surrender. The appropriate response to anything that tries to dominate is to question its authority by asking, "Who are you?" He contrasts the typical human behavior of being submissive and domesticated in the presence of power, wealth, and authority, while being rude to those perceived as weaker, such as a vegetable vendor or an auto-rickshaw driver. The spiritual path, he asserts, is the opposite: one should be soft with the weak and harsh with the oppressor. Society's principles, which encourage networking with the powerful, are in direct conflict with spirituality, which recognizes only one ultimate truth as worthy of respect. One must be humble before the truth but must not bow before Maya (illusion). He concludes by stating that one should be silent in love, not out of fear.
