Acharya Prashant clarifies that his point is not about disregarding the body, but about knowing what the body is, which in turn reveals its proper importance. He likens the body to a lifelong neighbor or spouse that one is born wedded to, making it impossible to ignore. The crucial thing is to understand exactly how important the body is, in which contexts, and in what directions. The goal is to give the body its rightful place without letting it dominate one's life. This involves attending to its natural needs like cleaning, feeding, and medical care, as the human body is a delicate instrument. Addressing the conflict between bodily urges, such as in homosexuality, and societal norms, he states that the one who knows the right place of the body also knows the right place of society. Society, like the body, is an external entity. If one does not blindly listen to the body, why should one listen to society? However, he cautions against a pseudo-rebellion where one simply flouts social norms to feel like a rebel. This is still a form of slavery, just to one's own dictates instead of society's. He delves deeper into the nature of such rebellion. Since the body is an instrument that looks outward, a body-identified person's rebellion will also be directed outward, against society. They might feel happy violating social norms, but they are unable to go against their own inner conditioning. This is not true freedom. He questions the popular slogan "my life, my choice" by asking what this "my" truly is, emphasizing that genuine choice requires knowledge. He extends this to the debate on sexual orientation. He points out the lack of fundamental clarity on what sex itself is—whether it's merely physical or has a deeper psychological and spiritual dimension. Without understanding the body, the self, and the nature of the sexual force, people are just carried away by currents of attraction. He challenges the dichotomy of being "normal" versus "healthy," suggesting that in a sick society, being healthy might appear abnormal. The aim should be health, not just conforming to a norm, whether it's the societal norm or a rebellious counter-norm.
