Acharya Prashant clarifies the fundamental distinction between facts and truth, explaining that truth is not a fact because facts require an observer to exist. He asserts that truth and the individual ego cannot coexist; as long as the 'I' remains, one can only relate to facts. Truth is characterized by the absence of the self, and any attempt to relate to it or find it is impossible because relationship implies duality. Therefore, truth is not something one can experience or possess, as it involves the total annihilation or surrender of the individual identity.
