Acharya Prashant explains that crime and corruption are fundamentally violations of an order or system. He distinguishes between two types of orders: man-made and natural. Man-made orders are products of human thought, experience, and conditioning. Because they are conceptual, they lack universal applicability and are subject to change over time and space. Such systems are relative and often rely on greed, fear, and violence to enforce adherence, which Acharya Prashant describes as a bigger crime used to mitigate smaller ones. He notes that while man-made laws may create a cosmetic uniformity, they cannot resolve the inner hollow or the inherent chaos of the human mind. True harmony can only be achieved through an inner, natural order that is not man-made or taught. This order is an allegiance to one's own nature, characterized by peace, truth, and simplicity. Acharya Prashant asserts that problems like political instability or fake currency are merely superficial names for a fundamental lack of order. He defines the only real crime and corruption as the failure to know oneself and acting against one's own nature. He concludes that unless education focuses on taking man to his true self and making him responsible to his own nature, all clever-looking solutions to crime and corruption will continue to fail.
