Acharya Prashant explains that he does not follow a set daily routine because his life is dedicated to a cause larger than himself. He compares living with a purpose to being on a battlefield where meticulous plans often fail once the action begins. He suggests that total commitment to a worthwhile goal requires disregarding physical comforts and personal preferences, even if it takes a toll on the body. He argues that a routine is a luxury that includes space for leisure, whereas true discipline is an automatic state of living tightly when one has a constant sense of urgency or a daily 'exam'. He emphasizes that a successful life is about surrendering to something bigger than oneself rather than following a rigid schedule. Addressing the emptiness felt by those who follow healthy lifestyles and diets, Acharya Prashant asserts that humans are born for the purpose of liberation from bondages, not just for physical fitness. He critiques modern spirituality for being too body-centric, noting that practices like yoga and meditation often become superficial treatments that keep people peaceful within their 'cages' rather than helping them break free. He defines a cage as anything one values more than freedom, such as attachments, social conditioning, or conveniences. He explains that authenticity is one's natural state, which is obscured when one gives undue value to external things. To regain authenticity, one must investigate and realize the lack of true value in the things they have bartered their freedom for.
