Acharya Prashant explains that if someone who is troubled by their life starts playing video games, they are not doing themselves any justice or favor. Being troubled by many things, the hassles of life, and then getting engrossed in a game might, for a while, make you forget how troubled you are, much like an intoxicant. However, the problem with any intoxicant is that it wears off. The issue with intoxication is not that it gets you high; if it stayed high, it would be enjoyable, and all troubles would be forgotten. The problem is that it wears off, and when it does, it leaves behind a great desolation, a barrenness, a wasteland. This leads to a craving for more intoxication, which becomes a bad habit. He states that whoever gets caught in the game of nature (Prakriti) is trapped just like one gets trapped in an addiction. You will find peace for a while, and then again, there will be irritability, tension, restlessness, and madness. The issue is not merely about being attracted to the opposite sex; the matter is much broader. Whatever we do, 90-95% of the time, we are giving our own names to natural urges, thereby verifying, authenticating, and justifying them, and then we get attached to them. These 90% are completely useless and can be dismissed in a jiffy. This is like feeding someone radishes and chickpeas, and then they burp loudly next to you, and you feel greatly insulted. You don't realize that the other person is just acting out of their nature, unconsciously. Nature is the first intoxicant of a living being. By getting entangled in these lower-level games, you will be deprived of doing something higher. There is a lot of power in the system of nature; it will not break. You will not live a life of misery, but you will be deprived. It's like someone at a railway station playing with dolls while trains pass by one by one. He has entertained himself with something cheap, but he has been deprived of reaching his destination. No one will come to tell you that you are caught in the wrong game because most people are like you, caught in the same games. The loss happens so gradually that you never feel a jolt. This is why those who know nature have also called it 'Maya' (illusion). It doesn't strike you with a jolt; it slowly and continuously deprives you, from the first moment of birth to the moment of death. Spirituality is the attention of every moment. As Kabir Saheb said, "There is a thief in your bundle, O traveler." The thief is attached to the bundle and is slowly clearing it out. The solution is to change the story itself. What you thought was love was not love at all. Love and nature do not go hand in hand. Natural attraction or repulsion has nothing to do with love.
