Acharya Prashant explains that the concepts of positive and negative are entirely dependent on where an individual is situated and their current identity. Using the example of a cricket match between India and Pakistan, he illustrates that a player's performance is viewed as positive or negative based on the observer's national identity. He asserts that these terms have no independent value; rather, focusing on positivity often reinforces one's false identities and ego. Spirituality, he clarifies, is the process of liberation from these identities. When one is free from a false center or identity, the dualities of positive and negative cease to exist because what is considered 'good' or 'bad' is always relative to the needs and state of the ego, such as how food is perceived differently by a hungry person versus a full person. He further discusses the futility of trying to change external situations from negative to positive without changing oneself. He demonstrates that seeking a specific 'positive' outcome inevitably creates a corresponding 'negative' elsewhere, as the two are inseparable shadows of each other. Acharya Prashant criticizes the popular spiritual focus on 'positive energy' or 'positive thinking' as a lack of intelligence, stating that true positivity or the 'ultimate good' is simply the mind's direction toward the Self (Atma). A mind moving toward the Self transcends choices and dualities, entering a state of 'choiceless living' as described by J. Krishnamurti. He concludes that instead of praying to turn negatives into positives while remaining in a limited identity, one should realize that they are not that limited identity at all.
