A questioner shares a detailed personal story about his past behavior, his mother's illness for which he feels responsible, his father's harsh words, his own struggles with addiction, and the current challenges with his wife who has become demanding after marriage, especially regarding family planning. He seeks guidance on how to manage these situations. Acharya Prashant responds by explaining that there is a difference between individuals. He describes two types of people. The first type has an empty life with no higher purpose or meaningful work. For such a person, sex becomes the only source of pleasure and a way to pass the time. Their life is hollow. The second type of person has a higher purpose and meaningful work in their life. They understand the hierarchy of priorities. For them, sex is not forbidden but holds its proper, lower place in life's hierarchy and is not the central focus. For a worthy person, even physical union can be a sacred act, a culmination after fulfilling all duties. It is not something done out of shame or guilt in secret. Such a person also chooses a partner who is similarly engaged in a meaningful life. In contrast, the animalistic approach is to indulge in lust without having earned the right to that pleasure by fulfilling one's duties. This happens when one's life is useless and empty. The speaker clarifies that spirituality does not forbid anything but rather purifies it by giving it its rightful place. He advises that one must first fulfill the necessary conditions and pay the price to earn the right to enjoy life's pleasures with dignity and self-respect. The primary duty of a human is to address their inner incompleteness and emptiness, and to live like a human, not an animal.
