Acharya Prashant addresses the concern of how one can be certain they are right when acting according to their own intelligence. He explains that our current definitions of right and wrong are merely imported concepts taught by others, rather than our own understanding. These definitions are subjective, varying across different countries, religions, and time periods. For instance, practices considered right two hundred years ago are now viewed as wrong. He asserts that right and wrong are social constructs and personal viewpoints that have no absolute truth in existence. He points out the hypocrisy in society where children are taught morality, yet the world remains full of violence and lies because these values are borrowed and not rooted in personal understanding. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that there is no external guarantee of being right because the concept of 'right' itself is flawed. The only true 'right' is to live with awareness and act according to one's own discretion and consciousness. Conversely, the only 'wrong' is to live in a state of unconsciousness. He clarifies that acting from deep personal awareness is inherently correct, even if it contradicts social norms or laws. He encourages the audience to stop seeking external validation or certificates of correctness. Seeking a guarantee is a sign of a fearful mind, and life should not be treated like a shop where one asks for warranties. True rightness comes from within, independent of societal pressure or collective opinion.
