Acharya Prashant addresses the common misconception that spiritual realization or liberation requires escaping the world to live in caves or the Himalayas. He dismisses stories of yogis performing paranormal feats, such as flying or dividing their bodies, as mere entertainment and fiction meant for those with a low capacity for critical thinking. He argues that such narratives exploit human vulnerability, fear, and the desire to play it safe by following the crowd. These stories are designed to keep people in a state of awe and fear, making them easier to control and exploit for money and power.
