Acharya Prashant explains that the truth appears rare because individuals are deeply invested in their own assumptions and fail to inquire. He states that the mind is born with seeds of ignorance and is conditioned to believe rather than investigate. To understand why one believes in the world over the truth, one must question the very nature of their existence and the reality of their birth. He suggests that questions like "Why was I born?" are not meant to be answered but are intended to quiet the clever mind by showing it its limitations. When the mind is quietened, it no longer clings to beliefs or the information it has gathered from external sources. The speaker emphasizes that the most fundamental belief is the existence of the 'I'. By questioning this central identity, all surrounding knowledge and beliefs are shaken, making one open to true inquiry. He asserts that the truth cannot be given to the limited or the false; instead, the limited container of the self must be dissolved. Acharya Prashant uses the analogy of a dream fire to explain that the world of ignorance never truly begins, and therefore, asking how it began is futile. Just as a dream fire can only be doused by a dream firefighter, a sleeping mind can only imagine fictitious solutions. Real help comes from outside the dream state to wake the individual up, a process that the sleeping mind cannot perceive or guess.
