Description

Acharya Prashant explains the concept of 'Ghat Ghat Antar Sarab Nirantar', emphasizing that the Divine or the Supreme Truth resides within everyone and everything. He addresses the issue of comparison, noting that while comparison happens naturally in the mind, it does not necessarily have to lead to suffering. Suffering arises only when one is not firmly established in the Truth. He uses the analogy of a swimming pool to explain that while beginners are advised to stay in shallow waters and avoid the depths of past and future thoughts, a master who is 'seated in the present' can navigate any thought without being disturbed. He clarifies that being seated in the present does not mean one is forbidden from thinking about the past or future; rather, it means that even when engaging with these thoughts, one remains connected to the source. For a person established in Yoga, the ego becomes purified, much like a river merging into the Ganga. Such an individual is free to think or act because they no longer have personal problems or selfish motives. Acharya Prashant concludes by advising that one must first resolve their own internal relationship with the Truth and put their own house in order before concerning themselves with the affairs of others.
