Acharya Prashant explains the concept of Amrit by relating it to the human ego and its tendency to identify with external objects. He points out that individuals typically derive their identity from the body, wealth, family, religion, or ideologies. Since all these things are subject to change and decay, which he describes as the nature of death, attachment to them leads to a constant internal fear. He defines Amrit as the state of not attaching oneself to anything that is transient or perishable. In a positive sense, it means connecting with that which is eternal, infinite, and indestructible. He emphasizes that true immortality is found when one stops relying on things that are bound to change due to the laws of nature.
