Acharya Prashant explains that the unwanted objects occupying the mind are merely filling a void. This void, he states, should be the rightful preserve of something higher. Because that higher thing does not exist in one's life, the little objects are profiting from that absence. The only way to get rid of them is to bring something higher into your life to fill that void, after which the petty objects will find no place to occupy. He asserts this is the only possible method, as the mind's logic is that having a bad object is better than having no object at all. If you do not give the mind the right object, it will select a bad one. He further elaborates that one cannot choose to go for neither a bad life nor a spiritual life. If you do not opt for a spiritual life, you have automatically enrolled for a bad life. To get rid of a bad life, you must go for a spiritual life, as there is no middle or third way. Addressing a related question about feeling exhausted from work and running towards entertainment, he suggests that the work is being treated as an enforced duty. Otherwise, the mind would either not need entertainment or would find the work itself quite entertaining. The advice is to make your work your entertainment. Acharya Prashant clarifies that if entertainment remains alluring even in the middle of work, it is a sign that you do not understand your work, have not chosen the right work, or are not fully committed to it. When one is fully engaged in their work, they are subsumed and dissolved in it. He distinguishes this from the physical need for exercise, which is a material imperative for the body. No amount of conscious work can take the place of physical activity. He concludes by offering a way to identify right work: it might tire you down physically, as the body and mind are machines, but in the internal sense, you will not be bored or fatigued. You would still be fresh internally. Using an analogy, he explains that a driver might have tired legs or an overheated engine, but if the destination is beautiful and loved, the driver in his heart would never really be tired.
