Description

Acharya Prashant explains that physical birth is merely accidental and does not constitute a true birth. True birth, or the 'second birth', occurs when one understands the body and acts from their own volition and soul. He distinguishes between the ego and the soul, stating that when the 'I' is spoken without depth or truth, it is ego, but when spoken with weight, love, and truth, it is the soul. This transformation is described as becoming 'Dwija' (twice-born), moving from a state of whimpering like a goat to the roar of a king. While the first birth is associated with the impurities of the womb and suffering, the second birth is an emergence of mastery and light. He emphasizes that one must first be born themselves before they can truly become a mother or give life to others. Those who have not undergone this spiritual rebirth only spread death and mental suffocation, even if they intend to do good. To achieve this, one must discard old identities, habits, and cultural conditioning, likening it to a complete bath or a new birth where the inner light changes even if the physical form remains. He concludes by discussing the metaphor of a 'flying dog', suggesting that to perceive the infinite and the miraculous, one's own vision must first transcend its limitations and learn to 'fly' beyond the ordinary world.
