Acharya Prashant explains that one should incorporate Yoga into daily life because one is not okay as one is. If one were perfectly alright, there would be no need for change. He clarifies that the problem is not primarily with the body, which, thanks to advancements in technology and medical science, is healthier than ever in history, with life expectancy increasing. The real issue lies with the mind, which is the source of all suffering. Therefore, Yoga today must be understood as the Yoga of the mind. The speaker criticizes the popular notion of Yoga as mere physical exercises, stating that much of what is popularly called Yoga does not even qualify as the first step. He emphasizes that our real problems are mental, not physical ailments like aching knees or a stiff back. Nobody's life is destroyed by physical issues, but our mental condition degrades our quality of life. Thus, real Yoga must address the mind. He laments that on Yoga Day, the focus is often on physical postures, which is a misconception that needs to be corrected. The fundamental myth surrounding Yoga is that it is primarily about the body. Acharya Prashant calls this the biggest obstacle to real Yoga. Citing the Bhagavad Gita, he explains that Shri Krishna defines Yoga as the state where the mind steadfastly adheres to what is right. It is about knowing who you are and acting accordingly, being in unison with what truly matters. Yoga is not an activity to be fitted into a daily routine but must be the very center of one's life. It is not a tool to be used by the ego to achieve its own targets, which would be a gross misuse. He further elaborates on the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, where Shri Krishna advises going beyond the three qualities of Prakriti (nature) and the ritualistic parts of the Vedas (Karma Kanda). The Gita represents a rebellion against a life based on following prescriptions for rewards, advocating instead for action born from wisdom. The speaker points out that the Vedas themselves document the entire spiritual journey, from humble, deluded beginnings like nature worship (a form of materialism) to the highest truth of the Upanishads. The message of the Vedas is that if the rishis could make this journey, then "you too can." One should not be disheartened by their current state of delusion but should relentlessly pursue the path to light, as spirituality is the only way of life if one is not adamant about self-destruction.
