Acharya Prashant explains that the division of tasks and activities into superior and inferior is often based on convention and morality rather than the facts of living. He suggests that the only worthy distinction is based on whether an action pushes one deeper into suffering or brings one closer to their essential peaceful nature. Anything that increases suffering is inferior, while anything that relieves it is superior. He clarifies that when one begins to wake up, suffering does not actually increase; rather, one becomes more honest and gains the strength to acknowledge the suffering that was already present. He uses the analogy of a hidden wound to show that acknowledging pain is not the same as creating it. Furthermore, he addresses why people perceive a guru only as a body, stating that this happens because individuals identify themselves primarily with their own bodies and material reality. Consequently, they project their own bodily attributes, thoughts, and intentions onto the guru.
