Acharya Prashant explains that giving respect and value to what is truly precious and high in life does not benefit the higher entity, but rather benefits the individual who offers that respect. At the core of all religiosity, spirituality, and wisdom lies the principle of constant remembrance. This means remembering what is truly valuable, especially when the mind is being pulled away by worldly attractions. He emphasizes that rituals, symbols, and customs in India were designed to break the continuous flow of mundane and anxious thoughts. For instance, stopping to bow at a temple disrupts the chain of worries about the future and ego-centric concerns, bringing a moment of peace and stillness to the individual.
