Acharya Prashant explains that the mind naturally seeks peace and is inherently troubled by unrest. He asserts that peace is the mind's natural state, while unrest is something imposed upon it through forced actions and poor choices. When the mind becomes restless, it naturally wants to shed that burden, yet individuals often place themselves in noisy or distracting environments, such as markets or constant phone usage, which prevents the mind from settling. He advises that instead of trying to 'calm' the mind, one should simply stop taking the side of unrest and avoid actions that are known to cause agitation.
