Acharya Prashant clarifies that Vedanta is a universal philosophy rather than a religion. He explains that while religions often rely on messengers, holy books, and commandments, Vedanta is a direct exploration of the truth and the nature of the self. He emphasizes that Vedanta is not a belief system and does not impose rules regarding rituals, lifestyle, or social conduct. Instead, it addresses the core human condition of suffering and the inquiry into one's own existence, making it applicable to everyone regardless of their religious or cultural background. Regarding the Bhagavad Gita's teachings on action and results, Acharya Prashant explains that the text is often misinterpreted. He clarifies that one can and should focus on the result to strategize and play effectively, but one must not focus on what that result will do to them personally. The goal is to remain untouched and unmoved by both victory and defeat. He suggests that a person should fight to win while maintaining an inner core that is already complete and unaffected by the outcome of the game.
