You Already Are One. || Acharya Prashant, Kolkata (2025) Context: - In this video, Acharya Ji explains that the self is the only true teacher one can ever have, and all external teachers, gurus, and mentors are merely reflections or proxies of this inner voice. The inner self communicates without language, which is why external teachers exist to act as its representatives in the world. Ultimately, every individual holds sovereign authority over whether to accept or reject any teaching, making them, in a sense, even greater than the highest external teacher. This is not a position of arrogance but a responsibility, because if a person has no love for their own potential to grow, no outside force can awaken it. External teachers can try to invoke, inspire, or even seduce a student toward wisdom, but real transformation only happens when the individual has genuine love for their own highest possibility. Regarding sacred texts like the Bhagavad Gita, Acharya Ji clarifies that the right approach is not to "use" them as tools for personal goals, because that places the ego above the scripture. True engagement with such wisdom means surrendering to it through genuine realization, after which the scripture guides the person rather than the other way around. ➖➖➖➖➖➖ 🎧 Listen to #AcharyaPrashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3f0KFwe...
