Acharya Prashant explains that spending time in the right environment makes it increasingly difficult to tolerate chaotic or misleading places. However, he warns that many people use spiritual retreats as a temporary escape to refresh themselves just so they can return to their messy routines, rather than truly transforming. This creates a false duality where one views the mundane world as dirty and the spiritual world as pure. He emphasizes that true spirituality is not about sweet emotions or socializing; it is often as bitter as poison because it requires facing the harsh reality of one's internal slavery and ego. If one does not find the process painful, they have likely not truly tasted it yet.
