Acharya Prashant explains that life presents a constant choice between truth and worldly attachments, symbolized by the figures of Shri Krishna and Duryodhana. He emphasizes that one cannot please both the world and the truth simultaneously; choosing one inevitably means displeasing the other. He critiques the common worldly desire for balance, such as trying to manage both spiritual devotion and worldly affairs, calling it a fundamental lie of social existence. True spiritual seekers, like Kabir Saheb, have always maintained that when one meets the Beloved, the familiar world becomes like a foreign land. He warns against the false comfort provided by superficial teachers who claim that liberation can be found within worldly bondages or by deifying family members and mundane roles.
