Reflecting on the legacy of Mahatma Gandhi, he highlights that Gandhi emphasized a strong inner moral center where personal life, politics, and virtue are inseparable. Gandhi’s non-violence challenged the principle that “might is right,” asserting that moral truth is stronger than violence or political power. Acharya Ji clarifies that most revolutions fail because they seek **freedom for the ego**, whereas true revolution requires **freedom from the ego**. When the ego—the hidden foundation of social and political systems—is examined and transformed, real and lasting change becomes possible. He further explains that youth restlessness persists because people experience their emotions but rarely understand their source. Through honest self-observation of thoughts, actions, and relationships, one can recognize how the ego drives decisions and emotions. Such self-exploration brings clarity about the restless “I” and gradually dissolves inner conflict. Ultimately, lasting peace—both personal and societal—comes from truthful self-knowledge rather than superficial change. ➖➖➖➖➖➖ 🎧 Listen to #AcharyaPrashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3f0KFwe...
