Acharya Prashant explains that the human mind inherently desires to reach a state of intelligence and liberation, yet it remains trapped in a constant state of restlessness and unease. He highlights that most prayers are driven by the ego and personal desires, where the individual asks for something for themselves. In contrast, a truly humble prayer is one where the seeker surrenders completely, realizing that their own calling is merely a product of desire or conditioning. True prayer is the silent, loving wait for the ultimate to call, acknowledging that the seeker's own efforts are insufficient.
