Acharya Prashant emphasizes that individuals are not social slaves and should not depend on social approval. He explains that while physical security is a practical concern requiring intelligence and rationality, internal feelings of inferiority are a matter of personal consent. No external authority can make a person feel inferior unless they participate in that phenomenon. He asserts that internally, there is no authority outside of oneself, and one must rely on their own understanding and discretion. He encourages people to stop being 'socially lonely' and to actively communicate the truth they have realized, rather than hiding it out of fear of a pseudo-religious crowd.
