Acharya Prashant clarifies that spirituality is not a tool for achieving personal goals like passing competitive exams such as GATE, CAT, or UPSC. He emphasizes that spirituality is the very foundation of life, not a decorative accessory or a superstitious ritual used for success. He criticizes the common tendency to turn to spiritual texts or practices out of greed for jobs or worldly desires, noting that true spirituality is centered solely on the goal of liberation. He points out the irony of people becoming religious only when faced with exams or death, suggesting that such faith is superficial and driven by fear or desire.
