Acharya Prashant explains that the ultimate truth cannot be grasped through scholarly investigation or mental activity because it is found only in stillness. He clarifies that while searching and self-inquiry are recommended, they are prescribed only because humans are habitually curious and restless. For one who is already still, no inquiry like 'Who am I?' is necessary. However, for those lost in the 'jungle' of the world, movement and practices are needed to return home, which is not a geographical location but the state of stillness itself. He emphasizes that the senses and the mind only take one away from the truth, and any movement toward the home is merely a redirection of existing habits by a teacher. Using the analogy of a mirror, Acharya Prashant describes how the world is a projection of the self. He asserts that what we perceive as 'out there' is actually 'in here,' and our experience of the world is a reflection of our own conditioning. Because we are programmed by our own hardware, knowledge is always stale and repetitive, failing to provide real freshness or relief from boredom. True newness is a sense of inner freshness independent of mental activity. He concludes by explaining that divisions of space and time are superimposed by the mind onto a singular, undivided reality, much like how boundaries are drawn in the ocean or how a vessel creates the illusion of separate space.
