Acharya Prashant addresses the phenomenon of artists and philosophers receiving recognition only after their death. He explains that while an artist's primary fulfillment comes from expressing the highest truth within themselves, a sense of incompleteness remains if their work fails to elevate others. This lack of immediate appreciation occurs because society is often driven by self-interest and suspicion. When a person is alive, others suspect their motives; once they are gone, these suspicions vanish, and time allows for a more objective evaluation of their work. Furthermore, great individuals are often ahead of their time, and it takes years for the general public to develop the capacity to understand their brilliance.
