Acharya Prashant explains that both positive and negative thinking are merely residues of the past and have no basis in reality. He uses the analogy of two dreamers—one dreaming of wealth and the other of loss—to illustrate that both are equally disconnected from the present moment. He asserts that positive thinking is not the solution to negative thoughts; rather, true understanding arises only in a state of thoughtlessness. He critiques the modern obsession with concepts like 'power thinking' and 'happy thoughts,' labeling them as illusions that distract individuals from the truth of their current existence.
