Acharya Prashant explains that liberation is attained simply by giving up what one has taken upon oneself. He compares the human condition to a person who wants to be free while insisting on keeping their fetters, or someone who wants to satisfy hunger while keeping their mouth blocked. He emphasizes that healing is impossible if one remains attached to the very things that cause suffering, such as burning coal or a tumor. To be healed, one must let go of these attachments, as they are the disease itself. He notes that people often show resistance when the source of their pain is addressed, preferring to be treated where the disease does not exist.
