Acharya Prashant explains that the desire to feel gratitude often stems from a cycle of suffering and relief. He points out that for a person to experience the sensation of gratitude, there must first be a problem or a crisis from which they are saved. This creates a psychological pattern where the mind seeks trouble just to enjoy the relief of being rescued, much like the thrill of a roller coaster. If everything remains consistently peaceful and fine, the mind becomes bored because it lacks the stimulation of overcoming a disaster. Therefore, when one stops feeling grateful, it is often a precursor to an impending disturbance that will eventually lead back to a state of relief and renewed gratitude. He further elaborates that this cycle is the nature of the worldly ocean, where one is caught in a repetitive loop of ups and downs. Even in ancient scriptures, deities only sought the refuge of the Divine when they were defeated by demons; without the presence of demons, they would not remember the Divine. Acharya Prashant suggests that human nature is such that remembrance of the Truth usually occurs during times of sorrow rather than joy. He concludes that this play of duality—where pain is necessary to appreciate peace—is an ancient and unchangeable phenomenon of the human mind.
