Acharya Prashant explains that there are only two fundamental powers: the power of Truth and the power of might. In any individual's life as well, there are only two centers. One is the love for Truth, which holds great power, and the other is physical force, which influences us. There is nothing beyond these two. Similarly, for any human being, only two things can be important: either physical force, which includes money, muscle power, and all worldly powers, or Truth, which is an important center for some people. The world, however, does not run on Truth; if it did, it would not be in its current state. The world runs on power, and the sooner one accepts this, the better. All our thoughts, emotions, and ideals are subservient to power. We are drawn to where physical force lies because we consider ourselves physical beings who need physical things. Therefore, we move in the direction where we see the possibility of fulfilling our physical desires. This means the physical being is always influenced by physical force. Even when someone claims to live by ideals, there is often a hidden material motive. When emotions clash with physical force, physical force wins. When ideology clashes with money, muscle, military, or political power, physical force wins. Only a rare individual, one in millions, values the power of Truth more than physical power. Using the Russia-Ukraine war as an example, Acharya Prashant points out that after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Ukraine, which had the world's third-largest nuclear arsenal, gave up its weapons based on promises and ideals, rendering itself powerless. The very nations that promised to protect its integrity, including Russia, either attacked it or stood by. This demonstrates that promises and ideals are meaningless without the power to enforce them. Ukraine, now powerless, is making Molotov cocktails to fight tanks, a clear depiction of the plight of the weak. Spirituality does not teach a weak and helpless life. To walk the path of Truth, one needs power. Citing the Upanishadic verse, "Nayamātmā balahīnena labhyo" (This Self cannot be attained by the weak), he asserts that a powerless person can attain neither worldly success nor the Self. To protect Dharma, one needs all kinds of power: economic, strategic, political, financial, ideological, and self-power (Ātma-bal). Truth is delicate and needs protection in this world. The world runs on power, and if you abandon your power and rely on others, you will be defeated; it is only a matter of time. To bring about a world that runs on Truth, one must first acquire power.
