Acharya Prashant explains that in the entirety of nature, man is the only one who has gone astray. All other beings are in their home, where they are supposed to be, and have never left it. If one looks around, one will find a state of 'nirvikalpta' (choicelessness) everywhere. On a superficial level, this choicelessness means that apart from man, nothing else thinks, contemplates, or is eager to attain something. Nothing wants to become something else. Whether it's sand, a tree, or an animal, it does not desire to become different from what it is. A dog is born a dog and dies a dog; it doesn't have the option to become something else. The speaker clarifies that this is a superficial understanding. The real matter is that behind this choicelessness lies an 'achintya shraddha' (unthinking faith), a faith that exists without being thought about. This state is not accidental. If a dog is a dog and doesn't want to become something else, it's not a coincidence. It might seem that the dog has no aspirations because it lacks a mind and is content with just food, but the matter is much deeper. The truth is that a profound faith permeates all of nature, a faith that is unavailable only to man. Unless you inflict great pain on an animal, you will see peace in its eyes; it is at home. There is contentment in the chirping of birds, and this contentment cannot be by chance. Acharya Prashant quotes Bulleh Shah: "They don't leave their master's door, even if they are beaten with shoes. Dogs are better than you." He explains that the dog's devotion is so deep that it won't complain, even if it feels pain. It is our foolish ego that makes us think we are superior to them. The real secret is known to them. If anyone is superior, who is it? Us or them? The speaker concludes by saying that knowledge should make you like a dog, not just give you conditionings, and he prays that knowledge makes everyone like a dog.
