Right Action || Acharya Prashant
Transcript
00:00Man laga kar apna kaam karo, such things.
00:03What do we mean by apna kaam?
00:05When people say, you know, I just give my 100% to whatever I do, it's horrible.
00:11Right action is defined by need, by kartavya or to put it more classically, dharma.
00:20Do what you must do, not what you feel like doing, not what you are interested in doing,
00:26not what you are desirous of doing.
00:29Do what you must do.
00:30This mustness is at the heart of everything beautiful, dignified, valuable.
00:37Unfortunately, mustness is totally forgotten these days.
00:41I want, then I should, and then there is I must.
00:45I want is my own desire, which is coming from my conditioning and such things.
00:50I should is a moral thing.
00:52It is coming from society and education and such things.
00:54I must is a thing of very high order, it's a spiritual thing.
