Acharya Prashant explains that aloneness is not about physical isolation from others, but rather about being free from the 'fake self' or ego. He describes the ego as a fundamental tendency to seek fulfillment and companionship in the world due to a sense of incompleteness. This internal 'culprit' invites external calamities and bad influences. Therefore, trying to drop others is futile if the internal tendency to cling remains. True aloneness means being with the right company within or being content in silence and nothingness. When one is internally fulfilled, they can engage in healthy, celebratory relationships without dependence or being cheated by the world.
