The Truth No One Told You || Acharya Prashant (2022) ➖➖➖➖➖➖ Description: In this video, Acharya Ji explains the deeper spiritual meaning behind the common Indian practice of adding “Ji” to a person’s name. He clarifies that “Ji,” derived from the Sanskrit “Shri,” is not merely a form of social respect like Mr. or Mrs., but a reminder of one’s true self beyond body and mind. While names point to the body and surnames to the mind, “Shri” points to the Atma, the real, eternal essence. Acharya Ji contrasts this Vedantic approach with the Buddhist way, showing how both aim to free us from limited self-identification. He also explains how the usage of “Ji” has become mechanical today, losing its original spiritual intent. 🎧 Listen to Acharya Prashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2QmVEAAnsNE7Xs0MW0Li8Y?si=09fbcbc7c99c469b&nd=1&dlsi=2d753e5523df4ceb Music Credits: Milind Date ~~~~~~
