Acharya Prashant explains that conflict or duality, referred to as 'Raar', exists only in a state of unconsciousness. Using the analogy of water and poison, he asserts that for a person in a state of awareness, there is no dilemma or internal war because the right choice is self-evident. Conflict arises only for the one who is confused and cannot distinguish between the saintly and the diabolical, or between nectar and alcohol. He emphasizes that a person in a state of 'Hosh' (consciousness) sees only one pathтАФthe straight roadтАФand does not entertain alternative, useless thoughts. True spiritual joy lies in the absence of foolish thoughts rather than in struggling to suppress them.
