Description

Acharya Prashant addresses a question regarding childhood sexual trauma and the fear of it recurring in the next generation. He explains that such incidents should not be viewed as isolated personal events but as a general phenomenon affecting millions. By broadening the scope of understanding, the sense of personal hurt diminishes, and a solid sense of responsibility arises. He argues that the root cause is the corruption of human consciousness, which manifests as an exploitative tendency toward any vulnerable being, whether it is a child or an animal. He highlights the contradiction in a society that seeks pleasure and consumption as the highest goals while ignoring the rights and suffering of others.
