Acharya Prashant explains that one can never receive what they do not truly desire at the deepest level of their mind. He emphasizes that if a person attends a session without the intent to learn, they will leave empty-handed. He defines the Guru as one's own internal desire to enter the light. When there is a genuine yearning for liberation and truth, paths open up in the world, whether through scriptures or individuals. However, if this desire is absent or suppressed within the heart, even a physical Guru remains merely a title and cannot provide guidance. He compares this to medicine, which is only truly medicine if it benefits the patient. He observes that many people write questions not to find answers, but to hide their core problems and continue a life of self-deception. He points out that individuals are often well aware of their central life issues, yet they avoid mentioning them. Acharya Prashant highlights the paradoxical nature of human freedom, stating that one is so free that they even have the freedom to choose not to be liberated. He asserts that even a Guru is helpless against a person's will and cannot force spiritual growth upon anyone. Spiritual liberation and truth cannot be given; they must be sought with deep thirst, intense longing, and total surrender. He concludes that unless one sincerely asks for the truth, it will remain out of reach, as the universe respects the individual's choice to remain in ignorance.
