Acharya Prashant addresses the confusion regarding spiritual practices like being a witness or an observer, explaining that these are merely tools or toys used by the individual. He emphasizes that the sense of ego or 'doership' is the root cause of distress, as people often believe that their actions or efforts will lead to the attainment of truth. He clarifies that there is no inherent responsibility for the truth to appear before a person, nor is it the person's responsibility to attain it. True peace lies in abandoning the belief that anything special needs to be achieved or that one's actions have the power to bring about a fundamental change in existence.
