Acharya Prashant emphasizes that human beings are not born helpless; rather, ultimate liberation is our true nature. He asserts that no one is truly forced or bound, and any sense of compulsion or entanglement is a game or 'leela' that individuals choose to play. He explains that all suffering is false and a mere pretense, which is why truth is described as 'Sat-Chit-Ananda'—existence, consciousness, and bliss. Suffering persists only because of one's own grip on it; it has no life of its own and would vanish if one simply let go. He clarifies that those who truly know cannot feel sympathy for suffering because they recognize its falsity; instead, they offer compassion, which seeks to wake the individual from their self-created dream of distress. Acharya Prashant further discusses how society often rewards suffering with attention and respect, leading people to adopt a 'tragedy king' persona to gain ego satisfaction. He notes that children often learn to display distress to gain parental attention, a habit that hardens into self-deception in adulthood. He warns against the 'selfie-taking' category of people who mask deep-seated inner misery with outward displays of happiness. True bliss (Ananda) is neither worldly pleasure nor pain; it is a natural, constant state that remains unaffected by the arrival of temporary joys or sorrows. To be free from suffering, one must stop being a supporter of it and recognize the inner part of themselves that finds relish in being miserable.
