A woman named Shirin, from Paris, shares her experience and gratitude towards Acharya Prashant, who has been in her life for eleven months. She states that his love has reached her from thousands of miles away in India and has transformed her. The experiences of happiness, pain, and suffering have opened the path of spirituality for her. From Acharya Prashant, she has learned to welcome pain and embrace it fully, to live through pain and to play through pain. She has come to understand that suffering is just a trap of the ego and a resistance to pain, whereas her real Self can never suffer, and happiness is her true nature. Following this understanding, Shirin's priority in life has become to follow the Truth wherever it takes her. She now welcomes loneliness, having learned to enjoy it and feel closer to the Truth in her aloneness. She is no longer looking for happiness in someone else or anything external, and has started witnessing attachment and letting go. She mentions that this understanding came to her through the 'Month of Awakening (MAG)' session with the Ashtavakra Gita. She also recounts attending a camp in Mount Abu where she asked Acharya Prashant about the meaning of the common saying, "Love and accept yourself as you are," noting that it often leads people to become selfish. Acharya Prashant explained that "love yourself as you are" does not mean "love your ego." He clarified that the ego is told to love the Truth, not itself, and this is achieved through inquiring and watching. He taught that meditation is not a practice for a few minutes or an hour a day, but is a twenty-four-hour state. He also explained that we are two: the Master and the slave, and that to "stay as you are" means to stay as the Truth as you are. Shirin concludes that she now understands we are not our body, mind, thoughts, or emotions. Consequently, the fear of her own death and that of her relatives has vanished, as she realizes "we are deathlessness." She feels free, totally surrendered to the Truth, and expresses immense gratitude to Master Prashant.
