Acharya Prashant discusses the teachings of Kabir Saheb regarding the obstacles created by family and social obligations in one's spiritual journey. He explains that when there was an opportunity to realize the Divine, family members, parents, and friends often intervened, citing worldly responsibilities, duties, and social norms. These relations often prevent an individual from seeking the company of the wise and pursuing immortality. However, when death or fear approaches, these very relatives are unable to provide protection or salvation. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that 'death' in Kabir Saheb's context refers to every moment of fear and anxiety. He suggests that if family members claim to be well-wishers, one should ask them to provide liberation from mental cycles, fear, violence, and restlessness. Since they cannot provide true peace or freedom from desires, they should not act as obstacles on the path of truth. He concludes that one should either invite these relatives to join the spiritual path or demand that they stop being a hindrance to one's quest for peace and joy.
