Acharya Prashant explains that true detachment is not a forced action but a natural outcome of realization. He clarifies that guilt arises only when attachment still exists; once a person realizes that what they were holding onto was illusory or worthless, discarding it brings no guilt. He challenges the notion of social responsibilities, suggesting they are often external impositions from upbringing and society rather than authentic spiritual duties. He emphasizes that seeking inner peace while blindly following social conditioning is contradictory. Furthermore, he argues that individual realization is the foundation for any genuine social or national welfare. Using Swami Vivekananda as an example, he asserts that one must first attain self-realization and discard what is harmful in their own life before they can truly serve others or the nation.
