Acharya Prashant responds to a question about situations where one seemingly has no choice, such as the plight of women in Afghanistan who are denied basic rights. He begins by questioning the premise of having no choice. He asks, if all these rules are made by a patriarchal authority, where does this patriarchy come from at night? Who gives birth to these men? Who raises them? He asserts that giving birth to such men is a choice, and sleeping with them in the same bed is also a choice. Cooking for such men is a choice. The choice is made to avoid being beaten, which means choosing comfort over freedom. If the situation is so dire, one can choose to fight back and even give their life. He states that if even 50 or 100 brave women were to stand up, all these men would kneel before them. This same logic applies to those oppressed by the caste system who complain about rules made by others but do not fight back. Acharya Prashant argues that a choice is always available. He points out the hypocrisy of women who complain about exploitation by a patriarchal society while simultaneously benefiting from it. He gives the example of women who come to see him in their husband's car, driven by his driver, carrying an expensive handbag bought with his money, and then complain about their husbands. He questions where the money for a seventy-five-thousand-rupee handbag comes from if they are not allowed to work. This reveals that there is a choice being made. The choice is to accept exploitation in exchange for some comforts and conveniences. Both parties are selfishly motivated; one wants to fill their loneliness, and the other wants comforts, and in this transaction, exploitation is accepted. He emphasizes that this is why spirituality is especially important for women. Spirituality teaches, "I am not the body" (Naham Dehasmi). One must know that they are not merely the body and that behaving according to the body's compulsions is not their only option. The body is a resource, and one can use it to either cut their bonds or create new ones. He advises women to practice self-control over their desires and to resolve that only a man worthy of being touched will be allowed to touch their body. If women make this resolution, the entire society can be reformed. He concludes by saying that the body is a vehicle meant to reach a destination, but if it is used only for its own maintenance, like a car that only travels to the petrol pump, it is a useless vehicle.
