Description

Acharya Prashant addresses a questioner who feels conflicted when others accuse her of laziness or using spiritual practice as an excuse to avoid responsibilities. He explains that the issue is not a lack of clarity, but a lack of deep love and devotion for what she is doing. When one is truly immersed in spiritual study and practice, the opinions and questions of others lose their significance. He emphasizes that if one is deeply in love with their path, they will not feel the need to explain themselves or be disturbed by external criticism. He points out that the questioner is easily shaken because she still gives too much importance to others' opinions. He suggests that when one is truly absorbed in the company of sages and scriptures, the words of critics become irrelevant. He advises her to deepen her love for her practice so that she becomes unshakable. If someone calls her lazy, she should be able to accept it without being affected, as her priority is her spiritual fulfillment rather than meeting the expectations of the world. The solution lies in increasing one's devotion, which naturally causes external distractions and critics to fade away.
