Acharya Prashant explains that one should not consciously monitor their own peace or observation. He suggests that observation is not a separate act but is inherent in honest experience. If one is awake, seeing happens naturally; therefore, experience itself is observation. He cautions against making observation a complex concept, noting that the observer is often just a part of the mind pretending to be a witness. True observation simply means not lying about what one experiences. Regarding the question of self-identity, he asserts that there is no single correct answer, only the dismissal of various wrong answers. Spirituality should not be used to complicate life with more questions but to simplify it. He emphasizes that if a spiritual truth cannot be explained simply, even to a child, then it has not been truly understood. He praises Kabir Saheb and Shri Ramakrishna for using everyday examples to convey profound truths, contrasting them with complex, occult language that often serves to inflate the ego. He defines spirituality as purified common sense and encourages looking at life directly rather than relying solely on big names or thick books. He explains that the delay in realization occurs because people believe they have plenty of time. When the illusion of time is removed, understanding becomes instantaneous. Finally, he observes that society mistakenly equates seriousness and stress with responsibility and truth, whereas true spirituality is characterized by naturalness and a lack of artificial effort.
