Acharya Prashant explains that from a spiritual perspective, all individuals, including parents, are suffering beings seeking liberation. He advises viewing parents not as mere authority figures but as souls in distress. The root of suffering lies in identifying with roles like 'parent' or 'child' rather than recognizing oneself as a 'living being' or 'soul'. In spirituality, there is only one supreme father, and all human beings are essentially siblings. He critiques the common parental argument of having spent money on children as a basis for obligation, noting that children do not ask to be born or provided for. He encourages both parents and children to support each other's liberation rather than treating relationships as financial transactions or debts to be recovered.
