Acharya Prashant explains that the human obsession with having a purpose often stems from a deep-seated feeling of hollowness and inadequacy. He contrasts business-like interactions, which are driven by goals and the desire to fill an internal void, with the state of love, where no purpose is required. He argues that the hope for a future purpose or achievement actually reinforces the feeling that one is not 'all right' in the present moment. This conditioning is often implanted by society, parents, and even religious systems that promise a better future or enlightenment, thereby indirectly suggesting that the individual is currently incomplete or inferior.
