Acharya Prashant addresses the misconception that he brainwashes young people to recruit them for his organization. He clarifies that most young people who join are actually a burden rather than an asset, often lacking the necessary skills, rigor, and mental strength. He explains that instead of extracting work from them, he has to invest years in their personal development, effectively performing the parenting and character-building that their families and the education system failed to provide. He describes these individuals as often being weak and fearful, requiring him to act as a guardian to make them capable of meaningful work.
