Full video: Do you overthink? Here is a beautiful solution || Acharya Prashant, Sir J.J. College, Mumbai (2022)
Transcript
00:00I fall into this loop of thoughts where I just think about it instead of actually doing it.
00:05The mind cannot tolerate a vacuum, a vacancy.
00:10The mind needs something to chew.
00:12You cannot just abruptly bring the mind to a thoughtless state.
00:16Not possible.
00:17So what to do as students, as beginners, what to do?
00:21Determine what is important.
00:22Honestly, give it due credit.
00:25And I like to say, fall in love with it.
00:27Make it your life.
00:28Then there will be no space to think of random things.
00:31And is that not beautiful?
00:33Life is pestering you with all the normal trivia.
00:37And yet you are not bothered.
00:38Why?
00:38Because there is a mighty inner thing you have embraced.
00:43And you simply don't have the time, the space to look towards anything else.
00:49In spite of all these things that I might potentially care for, I am occupied.
