Acharya Prashant distinguishes between India as a political unit and India as a source of wisdom. He expresses a deep fondness for the India that represents openness of mind and the birthplace of the Upanishads, Buddha, Mahavir, and Nanak. This real India is not a geographical plot or a piece of land that can be denoted on a map; rather, it is a universal and indestructible space of intelligence. In this context, anyone who is intelligent, such as Christ or Einstein, is considered an Indian. He emphasizes that this India is a privileged and rare place that does not belong to a specific population count or political structure. He further argues that confining oneself to national boundaries leads to a perverse exclusion of great wisdom from other cultures. He points out that people often ignore magnificent figures like Lao Tzu or Zhuang Zhou simply because they were born outside a specific line on a map, while they revere Shri Krishna because he falls within those boundaries. Acharya Prashant asserts that Lao Tzu is as magnificent as Shri Krishna and urges listeners to recognize the real, universal India that transcends maps, presidents, and armies. He suggests that identifying too deeply with political boundaries prevents one from accessing global wisdom.
