Description

Acharya Prashant addresses a student who feels they are lagging behind in their studies and is struggling to recall what they have read. He explains that spiritual learning is not like a school syllabus to be completed or mugged up for an exam. He critiques the student's motivation, pointing out that reading quickly just to catch up with others is driven by competition rather than love. He emphasizes that when there is genuine love for the subject, attention follows naturally, and the presence of others or external benchmarks becomes irrelevant.
