Acharya Prashant explains that the mind is exceptionally clever, finding profit not only in its cunning tricks but also in the act of regret. By regretting, the mind preserves its image while having already reaped the benefits of its deceit. Both cunningness and regret are burdens that make the mind heavy. He notes that people often become habituated to this heaviness, similar to how one might get used to a persistent headache. To overcome this, one must experience the taste of lightness and freedom from mental burdens. He suggests that his programs and camps are intended to provide this experience, showing that many social obligations and habits are artificial and unnecessary. He further explains that being light and healthy is the natural state of the self, whereas burdensome thoughts are external like a virus. Once the mind settles into its natural health, it develops a resistance to useless thoughts. Acharya Prashant clarifies that moving away from cunningness does not lead to foolishness. On the contrary, true understanding is a higher form of intelligence that sees the trick, its source, and its painful consequences. He encourages transitioning from mere cleverness to deep understanding, which he describes as great cunningness or right intellect, allowing one to remain light and aware.
