Acharya Prashant explains the relationship between the subject and the object across three states of consciousness: superstition, science, and faith. In the lowest state, superstition, the subject takes their own perceptions and fancies as absolute truth without any investigation. The subject believes in the existence of an object simply because they perceive it and then adds imaginative stories that they refuse to question. This state is characterized by a lack of inquiry and a reliance on tradition or personal concoctions. The scientific state of consciousness is superior because it relies on experimentation and verification. While science shares a similarity with superstition by accepting the absolute existence of the object based on sensual perception, it differs by demanding that all claims be verifiable and falsifiable. Science does not allow the subject's imagination to run wild; it subjects every claim to rigorous authentication. However, science has a limitation: it never questions the observer or the subject itself. It operates from the ego, assuming the subject's existence is an absolute truth, which leads to a lack of inward turning. Faith is the highest state of consciousness, where even the subject or the ego is questioned and dismissed. Faith recognizes that the subject is conditioned, unreliable, and assembled from external influences like genetics and experiences. In this state, one realizes that nothing in the phenomenal world, including the self, is fully trustworthy. Faith is not about finding a reliable object to depend on, but about seeing the untrustworthiness of all things and remaining at peace. It is an objectless and subjectless state that transcends the dualistic game of the universe. Acharya Prashant concludes that truth is neither objective nor universal, as these concepts still depend on a subject; instead, faith is the ability to live with the ephemeral nature of the world without needing an anchor.
