Acharya Prashant addresses the concept of selflessness, explaining that what people often call selflessness is actually a subtle form of selfishness. He points out that if a person feels hurt when called selfish, it proves they were seeking the ego-gratification of being labeled 'selfless.' True selflessness, he argues, exists only when there is no memory of the act of giving. If one remembers what was given and to whom, the mental connection to the object remains, meaning it was never truly given away. He emphasizes that real giving should lead to a sense of liberation and lightness, and one should be grateful to the receiver for providing an opportunity to unburden oneself.
