Peace is the desire behind all desires || Acharya Prashant (2016)
Listener: Advice to be little bit lesser identified to my body or ….
AP: You will always be identified. To be identified, is to seek completion. The ego sense says, “I exist…” and it wants to say that, “I exists as something X Y Z.”
So, it will always be identified and attached with something. It will say, “I am A, I am B, I am C but it would always need something to call its own.” Now, what is it that you want to call your own? What is it that you want to be closely associated with?
Find the ‘right one’.
When you have found the ‘right one’ then you will not feel the need to be associated with the inferior ones, the false ones. Find the ‘right one’ to call your own; find the One who will never betray you; find the One that never passes away; find the One you can completely rely upon; find the One that is not an in-between but the Ultimate.
What is it?
Ultimately, what is it that you want? Ultimately, what is the desire behind all desires? Call that your own; be identified with that. What is it that you really desire? What is that which if obtained would make unnecessary all further attainment? What is it?
