Acharya Prashant emphasizes that spiritual education is absolutely essential and should be initiated as early as possible. He notes that a child begins to develop the capacity for self-observation and self-knowledge around the age of eleven, and ideally, spiritual grounding should start then or even earlier. However, for those who have missed that window, he asserts that one must start immediately, regardless of whether they are twenty-five, forty-five, or ninety-five, rather than waiting for a later stage in life or the moment of death. He clarifies that spirituality is not about starting a new external campaign or activity; instead, it is the process of honestly observing one's current actions and questioning the internal driver or 'doer' behind them. It involves investigating the source of one's inherent restlessness, confusion, and fear to determine if one is destined to suffer them. Acharya Prashant explains that while spirituality is a natural state of a healthy mind, most people accumulate so much mental 'dirt' through life's journey that their innate perception becomes clouded. Therefore, spirituality serves as the cleansing of this inner vision, enabling an individual to examine the reality of themselves and the world to uncover the truth.
