Acharya Prashant addresses the common grievance that the world does not reciprocate one's efforts. He suggests that what we call a lack of reciprocation is often just the world failing to meet our specific, greedy expectations. He questions whether we are truly giving our best or simply engaging in a business transaction where we demand a particular response to please ourselves. When we approach others with hidden desires, we are not concerned with their welfare but our own, yet we claim to be victims of injustice. He explains that true liberation comes from being attentive enough to see through the expectations and deceptive words of others, such as the hollow promises made by organizations or the inflated figures in job offers.
