Acharya Prashant explains that there are two ways of engaging with spiritual texts. The first way is driven by the seeker's desires, where the individual remains unchanged and seeks to fulfill personal goals. The second way is transformative, leading to the dissolution of the seeker's ego. He describes this as a form of spiritual self-destruction because the person who started reading—the one with selfish interests and future expectations—is removed. When the ego dissolves, what remains is a state of natural satisfaction that requires nothing from the future. He addresses the common question of what one should do after reading a text. He explains that the desire to know what next stems from the ego's habit of living in anticipation. Using the analogy of crutches, he suggests that once a person is healed, the tools used for support are no longer necessary. He references Kabir Saheb to illustrate that when one's vision is turned toward the Truth, the concept of a future goal vanishes. The state of wisdom is not a destination to be reached but a realization of one's current state of being. Furthermore, Acharya Prashant clarifies why Sage Ashtavakra does not provide a specific method to transition from foolishness to wisdom. He argues that offering a method would only strengthen the false belief that the Truth is distant. Wisdom is not about doing something new but about knowing and letting go of what is false. Foolishness is defined as holding onto illusions and looking in the wrong direction. Therefore, the transition to wisdom happens through direct understanding rather than through any ritualistic practice or effort.
