Description

Acharya Prashant explains that India is not a Hindu country in the way the masses currently perceive Hinduism. He argues that real Hinduism is core spirituality, whereas the version practiced aggressively over the last decade is a rabid and virulent distortion. He points out that many who claim to be Hindus and engage in sloganeering or targeting other groups are ignorant of their own central scriptures, such as the Vedas and Vedanta. He asserts that being born into a Hindu family does not qualify one as a Hindu if they lack humility and knowledge of the Brahma Sutras or the Indian Darshans like Nyaya and Vaisheshika. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that the culture people follow today, handed down over the last century or two, is often mistaken for true Hinduism, which is actually rooted in deep spiritual study rather than political discourse or external threats.
