Acharya Prashant explains that the human mind is conditioned to live within the framework of cause and effect, refusing to accept any power outside of itself. This tendency leads individuals to believe that even liberation must be achieved through their own labor and effort. However, he warns that if one believes liberation is attained through personal struggle, it only strengthens the ego. To counter this, spiritual teachers emphasize that liberation is not earned by one's actions but is granted to those whom the Divine chooses. This teaching is intended to prevent the ultimate ego of claiming that one has 'attained' the Supreme through personal practice, knowledge, or devotion. Acharya Prashant points out that seekers and the knowledgeable often possess a deep-seated ego, sometimes feeling compelled to falsely declare their enlightenment to justify their lifelong efforts. He asserts that since humans often fail to achieve even small worldly goals through their own will, claiming to reach the Divine through effort is futile. He concludes that instead of trying to 'do' or 'achieve,' one should surrender, drop the desire to be the doer, and remain in a state of faithful devotion, as liberation is beyond the realm of human decision and control.
