Acharya Prashant explains that the mind has acquired a lot, and everything it has accepted has come with a promise to provide peace, love, or joy. The mind's entire objective in accepting any conditioning is the belief that it is worthwhile; otherwise, it would not be accepted. This happens because the mind feels inherently inadequate and incomplete. Consequently, it latches onto anything or anyone that promises completion. Whenever there is the faintest possibility of emancipation or freedom from this incompleteness, the mind eagerly seeks it, holding onto this promise. The process of clarity, therefore, involves questioning whether these promises are being fulfilled. One must ask, "I accepted this ideology, religion, or person based on a promise of peace. Is that promise being met?" If the answer is no, then one must clear it away. This act of clearing away what doesn't fulfill the promise is clarity. It is the recognition that "it is not that," and that one was deceived or made a mistake. This process should be applied to everything: thoughts, visions, targets, identities, and self-image. One must ask if these things bring peace or if they are a source of strife and conflict. The speaker advises asking what effect these things have on one's life. Do they make the mind more clouded and loaded with beliefs and baggage, or do they make one feel lighter? He quotes Kabir Saheb, stating that if a teacher does not clear one's confusion, that teacher should be considered false and left without delay. Listening, in this context, is not a limited action but a quality of life itself. If listening means engaging with life with immersion and without resistance, then it is a beautiful process. However, if it is confined to hearing a particular person or book for a short time, it will not be of much help, as true immersion and resistance-lessness cannot be time-bound.
