He says wars are not started by populations but by powerful leaders who often rise through democratic processes by manipulating uneducated and psychologically vulnerable masses. Democracy assumes people are internally free and rational, but without deep education—especially in history, philosophy, and self-understanding—citizens remain prone to propaganda and emotional incitement. He emphasizes that universal voting must be matched with compulsory, systemic education until adulthood. Acharya Ji also criticizes excessive respect for blind faith, arguing that irrational beliefs, when shielded from scrutiny, fuel division and violence. He asserts that facts must prevail over feelings in public life, and democracy must correct itself by valuing reason over emotionalism and unexamined belief systems. 🎧 Listen to Acharya Prashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2QmVEAA...
