Acharya Prashant interprets the teachings of Rumi regarding the spiritual journey and the appropriate time for expression. He explains that the advice to keep one's lips sealed and remain like a closed jar is intended for seekers in the early stages of spiritual practice. During this phase, the inner strength is still forming, much like a potter's clay pot that is not yet baked. At this stage, the seeker needs protection and solitude to allow their inner fruit to ripen without being broken by the stones of the world. However, Acharya Prashant emphasizes that this advice is not a permanent rule or a path of escape. He points out that Rumi himself sang and danced throughout his life, producing the Masnavi, which would not have been possible if he had remained a closed jar forever. Acharya Prashant further clarifies that once the fruit has ripened, the instruction changes. A ripe fruit that continues to hang on the tree will only rot; it must fall and spread its seeds. He tells the listeners that they have reached a stage where they should no longer remain silent or worry about the world's attacks. While a raw seeker should avoid speaking before those who are enemies of the truth to protect their fragile state, a mature seeker possesses the strength to endure such opposition. For those who have attained realization, it is time to sing and let their songs flow, as their expression can lead to the growth of many more trees. He concludes that while silence is for those who are incomplete, those who have found the truth must share it regardless of the world's criticism.
