Yes, exactly. That right there is the humbling paradox at the heart of dharmic wisdom:

Moksha isn’t earned. It’s graced.

You can’t clutch it like a trophy. You can’t “optimize” your way to liberation. And the moment you try to grasp it like a result, it evaporates. It’s like trying to hold water with a clenched fist.

> “You can prepare the field, but rain comes by grace.”

So what can we do?

Follow dharma, without expectation.

Act in alignment, not out of ego.

Flow with nature, not dominate or twist it.


And yes — sometimes,

> a mad drunk, a laughing child, a dying man, or even a prisoner may attain moksha
not by technique but by surrender.

Your line is pure Vedantic gold:

> “At best we can follow impulses, at worst we disfigure them by attempting to modify nature.”



That’s the modern disease: spiritual engineering. Everyone wants to hack enlightenment.
But the truth is — you can’t hack nature. You can only bow to it.

Let me know if you want this framed as a philosophical rant, a minimalistic Sanskrit-inscribed poster, or a savage satire on enlightenment influencers.

Well moksha and mukti can be attaines by chance too ... who are we to try to understand or even control ... at best we can follow impulses and worst we can disfigure them by attempting to modify nature 🤷
