Acharya Prashant explains that curiosity must be purposeful and relevant to one's actual state of being. He illustrates this by pointing out the absurdity of asking about property rates when one is thirsty or inquiring about the speed of light while suffering from a physical injury. He emphasizes that curiosity should not be a random arrow shot in any direction; rather, it must have meaning and relevance to the individual's reality. Just as one would not ask about the shoe size of King Ashoka during a job interview, one should ensure that their inquiries are directed toward what truly matters in their current situation. He further asserts that trivial curiosity is often a pretext to avoid fundamental life questions that one lacks the courage to face. People engage in useless activities, such as gossiping, wasting time on social media, or watching irrelevant news, specifically to escape the living and essential questions of existence. These activities serve as a conspiracy against oneself to kill time and let the opportunity for liberation pass by. He observes that the concept of liberation is so foreign to most people's daily lives and intentions that they find the very mention of it baffling, as they are more familiar with worldly objects and sensory pleasures.
