Acharya Prashant explains that our perception of greatness is often borrowed and superficial rather than based on direct understanding. He points out that if we were to look through our own eyes without external influence, we might dismiss a sage or a beggar as insane rather than recognizing their greatness. We call historical figures like Shri Buddha or Mahavira 'great' only because we have been told to do so, yet our lives remain unchanged by their teachings. He emphasizes that to truly understand greatness or the world, one must first clear their own vision. If one truly understood the essence of such figures, they would not continue to live in their current state of ignorance. He advises shifting focus away from the lives of others and instead observing one's own life and actions. He suggests that instead of wondering how others attained understanding, one should examine their own daily conduct, such as their intentions in college, the fears in their mind, and their habits of studying only under the pressure of exams. Acharya Prashant asserts that a mind driven by fear can never truly engage with anything, including a book. He concludes that one's own life is an open book containing all necessary answers, and by observing one's own thoughts and actions, the truth will become evident.
