Acharya Prashant explains that a true prophet or seer can only be known by their fruits, meaning the actual effect they have on an individual, rather than their outward appearance or behavior. He cautions against judging a prophet by their clothing, which represents their mannerisms, language, and total exhibition, as these can easily be replicated to deceive the gullible. Just as flowers from the same tree differ, a new prophet will not look or act exactly like a previous one. The true way to identify a real prophet is to observe what happens within oneself in their presence; if one's usual feelings of disquiet subside and a mystical void or peace arises, then one is with the right person. Addressing the feeling of being hurt or disturbed by another, Acharya Prashant clarifies that external factors do not cause hurt but merely expose the hurt and patterns already existing within the mind. He asserts that the outer is the inner, and only the ego is vulnerable to being hurt. If the mind is clear and empty like space, it cannot be touched. Therefore, when one feels hurt, they should look inward to identify the vulnerability within themselves rather than blaming external situations or individuals.
