Acharya Prashant addresses a questioner who feels that life is limited to working, eating, and sleeping. He challenges this notion by pointing out that if life were truly just these three activities, the questioner would not have felt the need to seek guidance or ask a question. He explains that beyond these physical routines, there exists a profound emptiness, restlessness, and loneliness that the questioner is failing to acknowledge. While animals like oxen are content with working for food and rest, a human being possesses consciousness that demands more than just physical survival. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that humans have a responsibility toward their consciousness, which requires internal effort and a higher purpose. He argues that spending one's entire life solely on material progress—such as accumulating wealth, houses, or cars—is equivalent to living like an animal. He redefines 'hell' not as a place of physical torture, but as a life where one is trapped in the cycle of working, earning, and consuming without any higher spiritual or selfless goal. He advises the questioner to fulfill basic physical needs efficiently and dedicate the remaining time, energy, and resources to a purpose greater than their own small self.
