Through Chao Chu falling in the snow, he tells that helplessness is self-created and liberation is always a choice. He interprets “If you meet the Buddha, kill the Buddha” to mean that truth cannot be known through mental images or ideas. Speaking on physical pain, he explains that it can momentarily shake the ego only in rare, mature cases. Acharya Ji explains that enlightenment is neither sudden nor gradual—it arises naturally through conscious effort and inner ripening. 🎧 Listen to Acharya Prashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2QmVEAAnsNE7Xs0MW0Li8Y?si=09fbcbc7c99c469b&nd=1&dlsi=2d753e5523df4ceb Music Credits: Milind Date ~~~~~~~
