Acharya Prashant addresses the concern about the increasing incidents of rape and violence against women in India. He begins by stating that the tendency for rape is a phenomenon prevalent across the entire world. What is happening in India is a reflection of the global trend. He clarifies that while it may seem like India is the most unsafe country for women, the data from the United Nations tells a different story. The rape rate in India, which is the number of cases per one lakh people, is around 1.8. In contrast, this rate is significantly higher in many developed countries. For instance, in Australia, it is between 20 and 30; in South Africa, it is over 125. In Scandinavian countries like Sweden and Norway, which are often considered progressive, the rate is between 25 and 30. In other developed nations like the USA, UK, Belgium, Netherlands, and Germany, the rate is around 8 to 10. While acknowledging that many cases in India go unreported due to shame and social stigma, he emphasizes that the difference in rates is still substantial, being 5, 10, or even 15 times higher in other countries. He argues that the more India follows the rest of the world, the more it will experience the same problems. The speaker identifies the root cause as the explosion of hypersexuality that has been imposed on the common person, particularly over the last 20-30 years, coinciding with the rise of marketism since 1991. This has been greatly accelerated by the advent of social media, OTT platforms, and other web-based media. He describes this as a deliberate program to corrupt the population for the market's profit. The market paralyzes a person's intellect by making them sexually aroused, which then leads them to make foolish decisions and consume products they don't need. He distinguishes between natural sexuality and sexuality as a disease or addiction, which is being promoted. The market, for its own profit, will degrade its customers to any level. This is driven by a materialistic and hedonistic philosophy of 'eat, drink, and be merry'. Acharya Prashant further explains that this market-driven culture has led to the decline of spirituality and religion. When spirituality, which fosters love, compassion, understanding, and non-violence, is pushed aside, it is not surprising that women are viewed merely as objects of pleasure and prey. He asserts that the animalistic tendencies within humans, which are naturally present, are being inflamed. The traditional values and education that once helped to pacify these tendencies have been replaced by a culture that promotes them for commercial gain. The result is a society where the youth, filled with unfulfilled sexual desires, see women as objects to be hunted. He concludes that the combination of rampant marketism and the decline of spirituality is the primary reason for the rise in atrocities against women in India.
