Acharya Prashant explains that spiritual progress and liberation are not instant processes but require significant time and effort. He challenges the common assumption that internal growth should happen within a few months, noting that even a child takes ten months to be born and much longer to become a human being. He emphasizes that the human condition is deeply flawed, likening it to a deep-seated disease or a prison. He points out that saints and scriptures, like Shri Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita, have consistently sought liberation from the cycle of birth and death because being born into this world is inherently a state of suffering and unfulfilled desires.
