Acharya Prashant addresses a question regarding the horrific exploitation of orangutans and the general lack of international intervention. He explains that the root cause of such atrocities is the human ego and the lack of spiritual consciousness. He critiques the common tendency to wait for a divine power or an external organization to fix the world's problems, asserting that humans alone are responsible for both the destruction and the potential restoration of the earth. He emphasizes that as long as human consciousness remains unrefined, increased technological and economic power will only lead to greater exploitation and ruin.
