Acharya Prashant addresses a question regarding a verse from Sri Guru Granth Sahib, which suggests that only those whose karma is preordained by the Lord meditate on Him. He explains that the guru is a living embodiment of teaching, and even their simplest words contain profound wisdom. He clarifies that such verses are addressed to the ego to remind it of its inherent limitations. The ego often believes it can achieve peace and liberation through its own choices and free will, but the speaker emphasizes that the ego's personal discretion is too minuscule to succeed in an infinite project. The teaching of preordination is actually an instruction in humility, showing the ego that it cannot reach the Truth on its own accord. Acharya Prashant further explains the relationship between human effort and divine grace. While one must do their part—likened to running to the airport to catch a flight—the actual journey to the Truth is dimensionally apart from human capacity and is experienced as grace. He warns against two extremes: fatalistic laziness, where one does nothing, and the arrogance of believing one is the sole creator of their fate. Instead, he suggests that the ego should act as a servant of the Truth, exercising choice not based on personal likes or dislikes, but according to the Lord's instructions. In this state, the servant acts yet remains a non-doer, while the Truth becomes the real actor. Regarding salvation, the speaker asserts that the opportunity for liberation is born with every individual, but its realization depends on one's inclination and desire. He notes that humans often choose against liberation because they are bewitched by superficial substitutes and intoxicants. He defines the common man's desire for 'freedom of the ego' as a curse and true 'freedom from the ego' as the ultimate boon. He concludes by urging the seeker to surrender their free will and doership, asking the Lord to actively intervene and drive their life rather than remaining a passive witness. Liberation is preordained by the Lord for everyone, but it is the individual's own free will that often decides against it.
