Acharya Prashant explains that the path one chooses to reach a destination depends entirely on their identity and their capacity to pay the required price. Using the analogy of traveling from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, he notes that while faster routes like air travel exist, they demand a higher immediate cost. If an individual lacks the necessary dedication or resources to pay that price upfront, it is wiser to progress slowly via bus or train. Decisions in life should not be based on imagination but on a realistic assessment of one's current situation and the depth of one's faith. Taking a shortcut without the strength to sustain the consequences can lead to a total breakdown, resulting in being sent back to the starting point with even stricter restrictions.
