Acharya Prashant addresses the notion of labeling others as foolish, arguing that such a judgment can only stem from one's own intelligence. He uses the analogy of sleeping men to illustrate that one must be awake to recognize that others are asleep; similarly, one must be intelligent to truly perceive foolishness. He points out that most people use labels like foolish, friend, or enemy based on past conditioning and societal definitions rather than direct understanding. These labels, including those of religion, caste, and status, form the foundation of most relationships but are often baseless. He further explains that while a child's mind is like a sponge that must absorb information and beliefs due to physical and neurological helplessness, an adult should not remain in that state of dependency. He challenges the listener to stop relying on external influences and labels, urging them to use their own developed understanding to see the world as it is rather than continuing to live with the mental dependency of a child.
