Acharya Prashant explains that the ego thrives in ambiguity and silence. When individuals claim they do not understand their own motivations or remain silent when questioned about their mistakes, they are providing a sanctuary for the ego. Vedanta emphasizes clarity and precise definitions because vagueness allows the ego to manipulate meanings for its own protection. He asserts that silence is often a conspiracy to avoid the Truth, as speaking would expose one's dishonesty or ignorance. Vedanta demands that one speaks so that their internal bondages can be identified and broken.
