Acharya Prashant advises the questioner to continue reading the scriptures, stating that moral beliefs about right and wrong do not hold up in spirituality. He explains that if a 'theft,' such as reading secretly, brings one closer to the Upanishads and the Gita, then such a theft is welcome. Conversely, if 'honesty' keeps one away from Ram, Krishna, the Upanishads, and Vedanta, then such honesty is worthless. He suggests that if one's father believes reading the Gita is a loss of focus, it might be a difficult task to convince him, especially while being financially dependent. The speaker notes that a mind not aligned with truth often understands the language of power, and the father might start agreeing once the son becomes financially independent, not out of understanding but due to his newfound power. If the attempt to explain fails, the questioner should not create unnecessary difficulties for himself. Acharya Prashant quotes the Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 18, Verse 67), where Shri Krishna states that this secret knowledge should not be shared with those who are not austere, not devoted, unwilling to listen, or who find fault. This implies that not everyone is ready to receive this wisdom, so one should not be disheartened if others do not understand. He reiterates that if explaining doesn't work, one should put conventional morality aside and continue reading the scriptures, even if it means putting covers on the books. Acharya Prashant clarifies that morality is auspicious only when it arises from spirituality. If morality opposes spirituality, it must be abandoned immediately. Spirituality and Truth are fundamental, and everything else is secondary. Sacrificing spirituality for the sake of morality is a grave error that benefits no one, as all auspiciousness comes from Truth. If one abandons Truth for morality, nothing auspicious can happen. Therefore, the choice must be for truthfulness over morality. For the sake of Krishna, if one has to read the Gita by stealing, it is acceptable, as the thing itself is so great that any sacrifice can be made for it.
