Acharya Prashant explains that faith is not an act of thought, memory, or conditioning, nor is it something done for personal protection or aggrandization. He distinguishes faith from belief by stating that belief requires an object or a reason, such as trusting a friend to rescue you. In contrast, faith is object-independent; it is the state of being alright regardless of whether one is rescued or not. He describes faith as a totally fulfilled self that has surrendered its worries to a reliable force, often metaphorically referred to as 'Ram'. This 'Ram' is not an objective entity or a person with attributes, but an abstraction for the indescribable, unknowable, and non-dual reality. While worldly trust is always subject to suspicion and uncertainty, faith provides absolute security because it does not depend on anything in the material dimension that can fail or deceive. Addressing the external conduct of awakened beings, Acharya Prashant clarifies that inner awakening does not necessitate a specific outward behavior like constant smiling or composure. He references Kabir Saheb, who described himself as awake and weeping while the world slept, to show that a saint's external emotions are responses to the world's condition. The difference between a common person and a saint is not the absence of emotions like desire or anger, but the object of those emotions. A common person's concerns are personal and selfish, whereas a saint's concerns and desires are inclusive and consecrated for the sake of the world. He warns against falling for 'fraudsters' who mimic stereotypical saintly behaviors, emphasizing that true saintliness is deeply human and characterized by an intense, selfless drive to serve others.
