Acharya Prashant explains that the individual soul is inherently connected to nature, which is composed of three qualities: Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. He describes nature as a mother who creates the ego with the intention that it will eventually transcend its domestic environment to achieve liberation. However, the ego often becomes comfortable within the luxuries of nature's 'house'—the physical body and the material world—and refuses to leave. This attachment to the three qualities leads to a state of spiritual stagnation where the individual soul fails to fulfill its destiny of becoming the pure soul by transcending nature.
