Acharya Prashant explains that humanity has reached a strange state where people know about distant stars and planets but remain ignorant of themselves. He defines love as a state of being joyful and carefree. When one is truly ecstatic, complaints and desires vanish, and one does not live for future goals but remains present in the moment. This inner joy naturally overflows and affects everyone around, which is the essence of love. Love is characterized by the absence of complaints, violence, and expectations in relationships.
