Acharya Prashant explains that a person of truth is devoted to liberation and truth, rather than culture. He highlights that the Bhagavad Gita represents a struggle of liberation against culture, noting that Shri Krishna dismisses the cultural and superstitious arguments presented by Arjuna in the first chapter. He asserts that culture is man-made, time-bound, and must be continuously refined to align with the truth. He points out that many past cultural practices, such as the caste system and child marriage, were rightly abolished by social reformers despite initial resistance from those who wanted to preserve tradition. He emphasizes that truth is eternal and absolute, whereas culture is not. He warns against the current trend of equating culture with religion, stating that religion should serve the truth. While traditions can be beautiful, they must have real meaning and arise from the heart; blindly following dead rituals is useless. Acharya Prashant suggests that new sacred traditions can and should be started to suit the current environment and society, and that any tradition that loses its meaning should be dropped. He concludes that while culture often feeds on tradition in India, it should ideally arise from a fresh and sacred consciousness.
