Acharya Prashant clarifies that the concept of 'energy' as often discussed in spiritual circles is a mental label and a physical quantity rather than a mystical or spiritual one. He argues that if something were real, it would persist even in sleep; however, the feeling of being drawn to someone's 'energy' vanishes when the form and thought disappear in sleep. He dismisses the idea of distant healing or Reiki, pointing out that if one cannot even perform a basic massage without physical touch, they certainly cannot heal from hundreds of kilometers away. He attributes occasional 'miraculous' healings to random chance and statistical probability, noting that the many failures are ignored to maintain the business of healing.
