Acharya Prashant responds to a question about the dilemma of needing resources to fight evil, when the acquisition of those resources often involves some form of destruction or unethical practice. He uses the analogy of the ego, explaining that to guide someone towards liberation, you must convince them to act against their own ego. Similarly, resources that exist in the world, even if accumulated through wasteful or vicious means, must be used in a way that destroys the very method and intention from which they came. For instance, one must convince a factory owner who pollutes to use their resources to save the planet. The speaker emphasizes that one cannot fight this battle alone and must count on the latent goodness in people. He points out that resources are owned by people, and the task is to convince them to use their assets for the right purpose, which is ultimately a favor to them as it aligns with their deep, latent need for goodness. He gives the example of donations, noting that not all donated money comes from purely spiritual means, yet it can be channeled for a righteous cause. If people do not come forward to support, then one is helpless. Therefore, one must have faith in the inherent goodness and potential for generosity, kindness, and bravery in every person and work to awaken it. Acharya Prashant asserts that any great endeavor must be a people's movement with distributed ownership. It requires building a network, creating a consensus, and awakening people. He dismisses the idea of being a complete cynic, stating that while people behave in evil ways, they also have a dormant love for light and a willingness to emerge from their debauchery. He addresses the questioner's feeling of hypocrisy for consuming, explaining that some destruction is inherent in life. The real issue is that the degree of human consumption and the ability to destroy have crossed all sustainable limits. There is a safe zone of consumption, and the single biggest act of environmental damage is procreation. He concludes by saying that if one has not procreated, they have already absolved themselves of 90% of the potential damage and need not feel overly guilty about minor consumptions.
