Acharya Prashant addresses the dilemma of dealing with inner desires, using the character of Duryodhana as a symbol for the numerous desires within everyone. He explains that there are two common but ineffective ways people handle desire: suppression and indulgence. Suppressing a desire only causes it to return later, while fulfilling it leads to the birth of a new desire. Both methods fail because they keep the individual centered on the desire itself. Acharya Prashant proposes a third way: shifting focus entirely away from the desire toward something much greater. He suggests that when one embraces a higher purpose or the 'supreme desire,' smaller, trivial desires naturally dissolve rather than being forcefully suppressed.
