Acharya Prashant addresses the fear of living without a purpose by explaining that one can "just live" without "living for something." He connects this to the central message of the Bhagavad Gita, which is "Nishkamta" (action without desire for its fruits). He defines "Kamna" (desire) as the state of "living for something" and poses the question of whether one can simply live, instead of living for a particular outcome or attainment. To illustrate his point, he uses an analogy of watching a beautiful sunset. If you are simply enjoying the view, you are "just looking." However, if you are told your brother is missing, your focus shifts to "looking for" him. In this state, the beauty of the sunset is lost on you because your attention is fixed on a purpose. The person next to you, who is "just looking," is in a better state. This highlights the crucial difference between "looking" and "looking for," "living" and "living for," and "observing" and "observing for." He explains that many people fail in self-observation because they are observing with a motive, not in a state of "Nishkam." Observation, he states, can only succeed if it is motiveless and purposeless. This does not mean being idle, but that whatever you do is not for some petty attainment. One should be "doing, not doing for." He quotes the Gita verse, "Karmanyevadhikaraste Ma Phaleshu Kadachana," explaining that one has no control over the fruits of action. Great things, including life itself, must be for their own sake, not for what can be gained from them. He applies this to love, work, and fighting. For instance, one should love, not "love for" something, as the latter is exploitation. Similarly, one should fight, like Arjun in the Kurukshetra war, not for victory or glory, but because the fight itself is the right action. This, he says, is the very substance of greatness.
