Acharya Prashant addresses the question of whether universal truth or beauty can exist if concepts like good and bad are matters of personal perspective. He explains that what is termed "personal perspective" belongs to the person, who is a bundle of conditioning and illusions. The perspective of a person, therefore, comes from his illusions. What one thinks of as good for oneself often turns out to be harmful, and what appears beautiful might just be a shadow of the ugly. Despite this, people have great confidence in their beliefs, which are rooted in their conditioning. The speaker clarifies that universal positivity, goodness, or beauty is not determined by a majority agreement. The majority is simply a crowd of conditioned individuals, so their collective opinion is not a reliable standard. Similarly, an individual's personal beliefs are not superior, as the individual is also conditioned. The inner world, or the so-called individual self, is composed of external influences and is not truly free. The crowd is not only outside but also inside a person. The only thing that can be considered universally good for all human beings is freedom from the very conditioning that creates these dualistic perspectives of good/bad, beautiful/ugly. The fundamental problem is human illusion, also referred to as Maya or Prakriti. Therefore, the universally good, beautiful, and positive thing is to be free from this central illusion. This freedom is the real Truth. The speaker advises not to follow the crowd or one's own beliefs but to continuously strive for the Truth, which is freedom from the conditioned center that gives rise to all illusory appearances.
