Description

Acharya Prashant explains that human suffering and restlessness are not mandatory but are products of our own consent and choices. He emphasizes that we often hold onto pain because we derive a subtle, distorted pleasure from it. Liberation, according to him, is the realization that what is unnecessary is sinful and should be discarded. To be established in one's true nature means to see the hollowness and futility of worldly disturbances, much like a fish that is so addicted to the ocean that it refuses to exist outside of it. He describes the state of 'Sthitapragya' (one established in wisdom) as a condition where the mind no longer finds any juice or interest in suffering or agitation.
