Acharya Prashant clarifies that the world itself is not futile; rather, it is one's perspective and identification with it that causes suffering. He explains that liberation (Mukti) is not about escaping the world but about relinquishing the false identification with the body and mind, known as body-ego. Suffering arises because we identify with pain that is not our true nature. If suffering were our natural state, we would not find it objectionable. He emphasizes that living against one's true nature leads to unrest and confusion, and liberation is the abandonment of this unnatural way of living.
