Acharya Prashant explains that the question is not about the chances of success, but about understanding the fact of duality. He posits that one desires success only when they are not successful. The desire for success arises from a deeply felt sense of failure or lack. The more profound this feeling of lack is, the more intensely one chases success. The central point is that the race for success itself contains the feeling of failure. The discussion is not about whether running after success can lead to it, nor is it about cause and effect. The fundamental question is, 'Why are you running at all?' This is not a question of values but of fact. One runs when they feel a lack, and the intensity of the chase is proportional to the intensity of this feeling. He emphasizes that this is not about judging the act as good or bad, but about seeing the fact of it. He further explains that people often run without knowing themselves, driven by blind impulses like fear, greed, or imitation. He cautions against using examples like the Buddha without first understanding one's own mind. One must first know oneself. He states that he doesn't know what tendency makes him chase things, as a blind impulse takes over. The demand of truth is to first see and accept the reality of one's own state. If you are running, you must first accept that you are running out of fear. After this acceptance, you can choose to continue running, but the primary step is to know the truth of your action.
