Acharya Prashant explores the unreliability of the internal judge that individuals use to determine what is valuable. He argues that this inner judge is not truly internal but is a function of fluctuating external knowledge and circumstances. Because this judge depends on ever-changing information, its judgments lack inherent validity and stability. He points out that people often outsource their lives to this fickle entity, which frequently leads to regret and suffering when previous decisions are reversed or proven wrong. The speaker suggests that the judge disguises its inconsistency as 'improvement' or 'sincerity' to maintain its authority over the individual.
