Description

Acharya Prashant addresses the common phenomenon where students exhibit social and environmental consciousness while on campus but abandon these values for conventional domestic lives after graduation. He argues that this shift is not a sudden change but a continuation of social conditioning that began long before entering college. He explains that for many, being an activist or a socialist in one's youth is merely a trendy phase or a social mandate of the 'student' stage of life. This lack of true understanding leads individuals to transition seamlessly from raising slogans to raising families, as dictated by societal scripts and biological roles.
