Acharya Prashant explains that what is commonly mistaken for love is often merely hormonal activity or biological conditioning rooted in nature. He argues that attraction between individuals is frequently driven by the natural instinct for reproduction rather than true love. He points out that if sexual activity were removed from the equation, many social institutions like marriage would lose their foundation for most people. He further illustrates that our conventional understanding of love is often synonymous with consumption and possessiveness, using the example of how 'loving' chicken results in its death, and how this same consumerist mindset is applied to families and countries.
