Description

Acharya Prashant explains that Truth and the common concept of God are fundamentally different. While the human concept of God is often that of an active manager, creator, or judge who responds to prayers, Truth is beyond all mental constructs and worldly activities. Truth is indifferent, doing nothing and favoring no one; it simply is. To meet Truth, one must become like Truth by losing interest in personal business and seeing the futility of worldly pursuits. While Truth has no business choosing the individual, the individual must choose Truth because it is the individual who suffers from their own worldly attachments.
