I kinda like the depiction of a man, visually disconnected to life and focused on wealth/social norms, asking for the meaning of life from a guru instead of seeking out his own meaning, highlighting the consumer/capitalist mindset of the man in suit. And the guru is taking advantage of the flaws of the man to radicalize him and eventually making bringing death the meaning of the man's life. Assuming the man is American, potentially even bringing his own death.

The perversion of life itself in the society that we all know too well.
