Acharya Prashant addresses the recent Chandrayaan-2 mission, clarifying that despite the hard landing of the Vikram lander, the mission is not a failure. He explains that the orbiter is successfully established in the lunar orbit and will continue its work for a year. The primary goal of landing at the South Pole was to search for water, which is essential for any future human settlement on the Moon. He emphasizes that the real success of the mission lies in how it awakened the Indian public's interest in science, noting that people stayed up late to follow scientific developments rather than for entertainment or religious rituals. Acharya Prashant highlights the deep connection between science and spirituality, asserting that both are essential for liberation from illusions. He defines science as the search for facts about the world and spirituality as the search for the truth of the self. He warns that spirituality without a scientific temperament often devolves into superstition and blind faith. He criticizes the prevalence of superstitions even among educated Indians and the misuse of scientific terms like 'energy' and 'vibration' by fraudulent spiritual leaders to deceive the public. He calls for a greater respect for science and scientists in India, lamenting that the inspiring and heroic stories of scientists are rarely told. He shares several anecdotes, such as Rosalind Franklin's sacrifice for DNA research, Howard Robertson's correction of Einstein's work, and Marie Curie's defiance of social judgment. He concludes that a scientific temperament—characterized by skepticism and the demand for evidence—is necessary to protect oneself from exploitation and to pave the way for genuine spiritual growth.
