Acharya Prashant explains that his journey has not been marked by any spectacular, glamorous, or special events, but is rather a simple and continuous movement, like a child walking toward its mother. He clarifies that he values appreciation only if it helps the other person receive more of the truth, rather than for personal validation. He asserts that true appreciation and gratitude do not come from one's identity or ego but from the real essence within. Gratitude is not an obligation or a role to be played; it arises naturally, even in spite of resistance. He points out that people often engage in role-playing by trying to force feelings of joy, respect, or gratitude, which is unnecessary. Furthermore, he states that all human relationships are ultimately for the sake of God, as people seek joy, peace, and fulfillment, which are synonymous with the divine. To overcome conflicting thoughts and moods, he advises individuals to identify their dependencies, as being independent makes it easier to remain firm with what is obvious and real.
