Acharya Prashant critiques the modern spiritual industry, defining it as a commercial entity that manufactures and sells concepts like peace, enlightenment, and love. He argues that the industry thrives because people demand extraordinary, mystical experiences, which makes them vulnerable to exploitation. He explains that when individuals seek something they do not understand, they allow themselves to be fooled by sellers who offer complex rituals or esoteric knowledge. He emphasizes that true spirituality is not about attaining something special or extraordinary, but about returning to a state of simple, natural ordinariness and basic humanity.
