Acharya Prashant explains that Vedanta is not a commandment-based system or a rigid doctrine; rather, it is a universal path of self-knowledge that encourages individuals to figure out their own path by rejecting what is false. He emphasizes that while paths may differ based on individual obstacles, the destination—the truth or Atman—remains the same. He clarifies that spirituality is essentially the process of understanding one's own operations, relationships, and goals to reach the core of self-knowledge.
