Acharya Prashant addresses the common argument that the orderly functioning of the universe, such as planetary motion and seasonal changes, proves the existence of a creator or administrator. He notes that science rejects this logic, suggesting that automatic systems governed by laws do not necessarily imply a law-maker or enforcer. He emphasizes that the existence of the divine is not a matter of logic or debate, as logic can always be countered. Instead, he explains that spiritual truth is found in the depths of prayer, meditation, and love. This realization is experiential; once a person has 'tasted' or 'touched' the truth, they no longer feel the need to argue or convince others. Acharya Prashant highlights that thousands of years of debate have yielded no final conclusion because the subject is beyond words. He refers to Buddha's approach, where Buddha refused to answer metaphysical questions about God, focusing instead on treating the mind's ailments like greed and violence. Buddha often led seekers into silence, where they found something more profound than any verbal answer. Finally, Acharya Prashant explains the human psychology of seeking: everyone is searching for the ultimate truth, but in their impatience and desperation, they often mistake worldly things, money, or people for the divine, leading to inevitable disappointment.
