Acharya Prashant addresses the distress caused when others misinterpret one's words. He distinguishes between two types of hurt: one stemming from ego and the other from genuine concern for others. If a person feels bad because their pride is wounded or because they feel insulted by rejection, it is a sign of selfishness and ego. Conversely, if the sadness arises because the other person missed out on something beneficial, it is a sign of compassion. He emphasizes that the right to give or teach belongs only to those who are free from their own small anxieties and do not seek personal validation or gratitude in return. True giving begins from a state of inner completeness. Acharya Prashant explains that figures like Kabir Saheb expressed sadness not for themselves, but for the plight of others who failed to understand the truth. He advises that one must step out of the cycle of protecting their own image or seeking to be seen as a benefactor. Using the analogy of a father giving to a son or a person depositing money in a bank, he points out that giving with the expectation of a future return is not love but a transaction. One should perform their duty with full effort and then leave the outcome to existence, remaining free from expectations to find true peace.
