When asked to share his life mantra or "philosophy of now," Acharya Prashant responds that he has forgotten all philosophies. He explains that if the question had been asked 20 years ago, he might have been able to provide an answer, but today he has no mantra that he consciously remembers and would struggle to find one. He clarifies that he does not meditate in the conventional sense of closing his eyes to focus on something, nor does he remember any specific mantra. Acharya Prashant elaborates that although he continuously teaches from scriptures like the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita, he never feels the need to consciously recall any verses or mantras throughout his day. He describes his memory as being free of them, suggesting they do not sit on the surface. However, this does not mean he has forgotten them entirely; he finds that whenever he needs to quote a verse, it comes to him spontaneously. He describes his way of living as a direct and spontaneous response to life as it happens, without relying on any pre-existing principle, idea, thought, or formula. When asked if he has a mantra for the youth, he explains that mantras are like medicines, which must be prescribed by a teacher after diagnosing a person's specific situation. Therefore, a particular mantra is advised based on an individual's condition at that time, and he asserts that "no mantra is forever." He concludes by reflecting that he is surprised and pleased to discover he has no mantra.
