Acharya Prashant explains that individuals often construct their own paths based on personal experiences, impressions, and thoughts. He argues that the selector and the selection are inseparable; one chooses according to what one already is. Therefore, a path chosen by the mind only leads back to the mind's own boundaries and conditioning. He emphasizes that having a single fixed path closes the doors to all other possibilities, whereas having no fixed path allows all paths to open. He quotes J. Krishnamurti, stating that truth is a pathless land where the mind's preconceived notions do not apply.
