Acharya Prashant addresses a questioner who feels lazy and stuck in bad habits, attributing it to a lack of love and willpower. The speaker advises him to stop eating and drinking. He explains that when gross physical pleasures like eating and drinking are going well, they suppress the subtle sorrows of life. A person with love and self-respect would say, "If I am not getting the real thing, why should I keep enjoying the fake thing?" He uses the analogy of a child who wants the moon and refuses any substitute like toys or sweets, saying, "I want the moon or nothing at all." He questions why the questioner eats and drinks so much if he is truly in sorrow, as a person in deep sorrow withers away and does not relish food. If one truly felt the lack of love with intensity, their routine of eating and drinking would not continue as usual. Acharya Prashant elaborates that when someone suffers a deep loss, their engagement in activities of comfort and pleasure ceases. If the questioner's "party" is still going on, it indicates that he does not feel the loss of love intensely. He should mourn this loss. If he doesn't, it means he doesn't truly want love. The speaker advises him to refuse the fake things life offers and to go on a hunger strike, demanding from life, "Either give me the real thing, or I will not accept anything else." In response to another question about people using spirituality to escape worldly problems, Acharya Prashant states that understanding (Bodha) is always accompanied by compassion. If there is no compassion, there is no understanding. One cannot be content with just oneself. Victory over one's own sorrow is achieved by helping other sorrowful beings. Therefore, those who claim to have conquered their sorrow but are unconcerned with others are both sorrowful and deluded. He concludes by reminding that Shri Krishna advised Arjun to fight a war, not just to perform devotional singing (kirtan).
