Acharya Prashant explains that exploitation in relationships is a mutual cycle where both men and women participate, often using their specific points of power to control one another. He argues that the root cause of this conflict is not gender itself, but a pervasive spiritual ignorance that prevents individuals from realizing their true conscious nature. By strictly adhering to gender identities, such as a woman seeing herself only as a woman or a man refusing to show vulnerability, individuals reinforce their own mental prisons and hinder their spiritual transcendence.
