Description

Acharya Prashant addresses the common desire to achieve financial targets and freedom from bondage while simultaneously fearing loss. He explains that seeking victory while trying to avoid fear is impossible because of the fundamental law of duality; where there is desire and attachment, fear is inevitable. The more one feels their existence depends on achievements, the more desperate and fearful they become. He asserts that freedom from fear is not a byproduct of victory, but is the victory itself. True bondage is nothing but fear, and any pursuit of freedom that increases fear is misguided. He challenges the assumption that being a 'doer' or running harder toward a destination will lead to peace, noting that a target-driven mind only collects more insecurity in its quest for security.
