Acharya Prashant explains Kabir Saheb's perspective on the relationship between a saint and the 'Shabd' (Word). He describes two essential tests for a seeker: first, achieving a state of profound inner silence to hear the truth, and second, maintaining that silence so it can manifest as speech or action. While many experience fleeting moments of truth through grace, they often fail to sustain it because they are unprepared to accept it fully. The speaker distinguishes a common person from a saint by their willingness to listen without resistance and their desire for more than just a glimpse of the truth. Once truth is attained, the saint's responsibility is to share it, which marks the transition from inner silence to outward expression.
