Description

Acharya Prashant explains that the conflict faced by Arjun is not personal but represents the universal situation of mankind, where both Shri Krishna and Arjun reside within us. He emphasizes that a true prophet or seer should be recognized by their 'fruits'—the effect they have on an individual—rather than their 'clothing,' which refers to external behaviors, language, and mannerisms that are easily replicated to deceive others. He notes that while external appearances change, the internal impact remains the true measure of authenticity. Acharya Prashant further clarifies that being in the presence of a real prophet leads to the subsidence of disquiet and the emergence of a mystical void or peace. Addressing the feeling of being hurt by others, he asserts that external factors do not cause hurt but merely expose existing disturbances and vulnerabilities within the subconscious. He concludes that only the ego is capable of being hurt, and instead of blaming external situations, one must look inward to understand the internal causes of their vulnerability.
