Acharya Prashant provides a profound reinterpretation of 'Equanimity' as mentioned in the Uttar Gita. He clarifies that for common people, equanimity often means treating two opposing things as equal, such as equating success with failure or right with wrong. He argues that this is a foolish interpretation. True equanimity, as taught by Shri Krishna, does not mean establishing equality between external objects or situations; rather, it means remaining unaffected by them. It is the state of remaining as one truly is—the timeless Self—regardless of external circumstances. He emphasizes that one must remain 'equal' to their original nature that existed before birth and will exist after death, rather than trying to force equality between external dualities like profit and loss or joy and sorrow. He further explains that the mind is prone to manipulation and influence, whereas the Self is constant and transcendental. Equanimity means seeing the world through the 'Self-view' rather than the 'mind-view.' When one is established in the Self, they are not swayed by the sensations of the body or the fluctuations of the mind. Acharya Prashant warns against the modern spiritual misconception that equanimity justifies indifference to injustice or exploitation. He asserts that while the Self is beyond all attributes, a person who is truly established in the Self will naturally act in favor of Righteousness. Being 'neutral' in the face of conflict is not true equanimity; true equanimity allows one to clearly distinguish between Righteousness and Unrighteousness and choose the path of one's own Duty, even at the cost of life.
