Acharya Prashant explains that morality and ethics are external constructs derived from societal behavior and prevalent ideologies. Morality relates to the masses, while ethics are determined by thought leaders; both are situated outside the individual. He argues that an awakened person does not live by these external codes but by their own consciousness. This consciousness is a solid guiding principle that defines the right or auspicious as anything that leads to clearer vision and liberation from inner and outer bondages. Conversely, anything that increases bondage or obscures vision is considered wrong. For those without their own inner vision, external moral and ethical standards serve as a necessary but inwardly wasteful crutch, as they perpetuate a compulsive need for external guidance rather than enabling self-sufficiency.
