Acharya Prashant addresses the question of whether nature or Maya can be called a 'bad mother'. He explains that nature is a single element; if one is willing to learn from it, it is divine, but if one remains ignorant, it appears as Maya. He asserts that nature is never at fault; rather, it is the individual who fails to learn. He compares nature to a book or a school where every experience and object is meant for learning. Just as a student who fails an exam by tearing up books cannot blame the books, a person who merely consumes nature instead of learning from it cannot blame nature. He defines nature as everything external—trees, mountains, the body, and even thoughts—all of which serve as tools for observation. He emphasizes that human birth is essentially an admission into a school, where the primary purpose is to learn. Acharya Prashant clarifies that learning does not mean accumulating information but rather observing how nature works to free oneself from false beliefs and imaginations. He states that facts are the gateway to truth. By observing external things like a dog on the street or traffic, one gains insight into their own internal nature and thoughts, as the same natural elements exist both outside and within. This process of direct seeing and understanding facts leads to the dissolution of misconceptions about oneself, which he identifies as true learning and self-knowledge.
