Acharya Prashant explains that the perceived dichotomy between the inner realization advocated by Shri Ramana Maharshi and the external freedom struggle of political leaders is non-existent. He clarifies that the liberation of a country is essentially the liberation of its people from bondage. While political subjugation is the most visible form of slavery, it is only a small part of the total dependencies that enslave an individual. Leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. B.R. Ambedkar recognized this, viewing political independence from Britain as merely a starting point for deeper social and inner emancipation. Shri Ramana Maharshi contributed to this same goal by fostering inner freedom through silence, which naturally makes an individual resistant to any form of external subjugation.
