Acharya Prashant addresses a question about insecurity and self-doubt that arises from being conditioned to be humble and not speak of one's strengths. He explains that this issue is not about being loud or quiet about one's strengths, but about realizing that what one calls strengths and weaknesses are not truly strengths or weaknesses at all. Using the analogy of a dream, he asks whether one should be ashamed of being a beggar or boastful of being a champion wrestler in a dream. The point is that both are unreal. He clarifies that what you call your strengths are not strengths, what you call your weaknesses are not weaknesses, and most importantly, what you call 'your' strengths and weaknesses are not yours at all. True humility, he states, is to know oneself. It is not about focusing on weaknesses or being modest about strengths, but about realizing the falseness of these concepts. The problem with an ignorant society is that it lives in falseness and then tries to be artificially humble about its false strengths. Real humility is self-knowledge, which leads to the realization of how small one is. Acharya Prashant elaborates that attributes like height, muscles, beauty, or even a high IQ are not earned or chosen by the individual. They are the result of genetics, social influence, and other external factors. Therefore, there is nothing to be proud of. For instance, one's height is relative; one might be tall in one group but short in another. One's IQ is genetic, and what matters is what one does with it. The real issue is the identification with 'my-ness'—my hair, my body, my brain. Real humility lies in setting aside this 'my-ness' itself, because none of it is truly yours. In conclusion, the speaker defines real strength as the ability to see this truth, and real weakness as the failure to see it. The essence of all spirituality is to know yourself as 'not this'—not the body, not the mind, not the attributes. True humility is to see that none of this is yours. You are an outsider to all of it.
