Acharya Prashant addresses a question regarding the spiritual progress and liberation of non-human beings, such as animals and plants. He begins by pointing out that the questioner's curiosity about other species often stems from an avoidance of their own self-inquiry. Using an analogy of a student who knew everything except his own curriculum, he suggests that people often focus on external mysteries like the 'nirvana of a frog' while neglecting their own spiritual state. He emphasizes that to truly understand another being, one must first be free from personal desires, labels, and the ego that places humans on a superior pedestal. He asserts that nature is the first manifestation of the divine and that animals are actually closer to the truth than humans, who have created a significant distance through their complex minds.
