Acharya Prashant explains that for those not grounded in the core principles of Vedanta, the highest spiritual statements can be confusing or even distressing. He emphasizes that the word 'is' (existence) in common parlance is relative to the individual ego; when a person says something exists, it is true only from their subjective perspective, not as an absolute reality. The ego attempts to grant its experiences the status of absolute truth to validate its own existence as something eternal and real. Vedanta challenges this by asking, "For whom?" highlighting that the world is merely a collection of experiences dependent on the observer. Since human perception is prone to error and leads to suffering, the wise person understands that what they perceive is likely a delusion rather than the truth.
