There were concerns that learning philosophy as part of a curriculum might reduce its depth and impact. It was discussed that any subject’s value depends on how one approaches it. If someone truly loves a subject, it should become a central part of their life, not a side interest. The belief that formal study might hinder connection was questioned, emphasizing that true engagement comes from genuine commitment. Choosing a subject based on passion rather than societal expectations or fear of insecurity was encouraged. Personal fulfillment lies in dedicating oneself to what they genuinely love, regardless of external pressures or doubts. 🎧 Listen to Acharya Prashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2QmVEAAnsNE7Xs0MW0Li8Y?si=09fbcbc7c99c469b Music Credits: Milind Date ~~~
