Acharya Prashant responds to a viewer's comment that while his words are generally correct, he speaks with a lot of attitude and not like a friend. The speaker acknowledges that he does have an attitude and then questions the viewer's understanding of what a friend is. He asks the viewer to explain how they know what a friend is supposed to be like. He points out that when the viewer says he doesn't speak like a friend, it implies the viewer has a preconceived image of how a friend should be and speak. The speaker then compares his own way of speaking to this preconceived image. He challenges the viewer to consider the source of their image of a friend. He asks, "How do you know that the image of a friend you hold in your mind is correct?" He then offers his own definition: a true friend is one who genuinely works for your welfare, who elevates your life and your mind to a higher level. He questions whether the viewer's existing friends have actually uplifted their life or consciousness. If they haven't, he asks, how can they be considered friends at all? The speaker then describes the common, popular image of a friend, often shaped by media and society. This includes friends who encourage drinking, help in cheating during exams, get you into fights, bunk classes, and even introduce you to drugs. He asserts that these are not friends but enemies who ruin your life. He contrasts this with his own role, stating that he is the viewer's true friend because he speaks the clear, hard truth for their benefit. He explains that others, like spiritual gurus or motivational speakers, might speak sweetly because they want something from you, like a shopkeeper sweet-talking a customer for profit. Since he wants to give, not take, he speaks directly and truthfully, which is the mark of real friendship.
