Acharya Prashant addresses the necessity of judgment and discrimination in life, challenging the modern spiritual notion that good and bad are merely subjective perceptions. He argues that one cannot live even a single minute without exercising the faculty of discrimination, as every choiceâfrom attending a talk to choosing foodâis an act of judgment. He asserts that if one claims to be beyond judgment, they must also be indifferent to suffering, bondage, and pain. Until one reaches the spiritual height of non-duality attained by figures like Ashtavakra or Dattatreya, good and bad remain tangible realities that directly affect one's life and well-being.
