Description

Acharya Prashant explains that parenting should focus on helping a child realize God through direct experience rather than abstract concepts. When a child asks why we need God, he suggests using the child's own curiosity as the answer. The persistent urge to seek answers and the dissatisfaction felt when they are missing is the very proof of God's existence. God is not a separate entity but the source of the child's questions and the joy found in understanding. He defines God as the realization and the tendency within us to move toward truth and good answers.
