Acharya Prashant addresses the environmental degradation of the Ganga River, specifically noting reports that its water is unfit for bathing and that a significant percentage of aquatic life has perished. He questions why large populations continue to participate in mass gatherings like the Kumbh Mela despite these ecological crises. When asked why people are polluting the river, he shifts the focus from the actions of the masses to the responsibility of the individual listener. He emphasizes that he is already aware of these issues and has been the one highlighting the foolishness often committed in the name of religion and the deteriorating state of the environment.
