Description

Acharya Prashant discusses the vulnerability of spiritual teachers like Swami Vivekananda and J. Krishnamurti within a democratic system, where their wisdom is often valued no more than that of an average person. He explains that time is cyclical, meaning that when ignorance and foolishness reach their peak, the arrival of truth becomes inevitable. While it would be ideal for the masses and leaders to willingly incorporate Vedant and the Upanishads into academic curricula to eradicate pain and ignorance, humanity often resists this path. Acharya Prashant asserts that truth must ultimately prevail; if people do not surrender to it happily, they will be forced to do so through widespread chaos, mental disorders, and global conflict. He observes that mankind tends to treat spiritual wisdom as a last resort, choosing to exhaust every other false option first. This obstinacy leads to significant self-inflicted devastation before humanity finally turns to the teacher for guidance.
