Breaking through the cycle of exploitation in relationships
Acharya Prashant's Wisdom Graces The Sunday Guardian: "Individuals, whether men or women, who lack inner growth and self-awareness are likely to misuse power when it is given to them. Empowering a person without fostering wisdom and clarity can lead to abuse of power. Just as men have historically misused their rights and privileges, women could do the same if granted power without the awareness to use it wisely. The solution is not to revoke women’s rights or return unchecked power to men but to ensure that both men and women are nurtured with self-awareness and wisdom to wield power responsibly."

कुंभ मेले के पवित्र आयोजन में हाल ही में एक ऐसी घटना घटी, जिसने हर जागरूक व्यक्ति को झकझोर कर रख दिया। वेदांत मर्मज्ञ और लोकप्रिय लेखक आचार्य प्रशांत के नाम से एक फर्जी पोस्टर वायरल किया गया। इस पोस्टर में झूठा दावा किया गया कि उन्होंने कुंभ मेले को “अंधविश्वास” करार दिया है। जाँच के बाद यह स्पष्ट हुआ कि यह दावा पूरी तरह झूठा और निराधार था। आचार्य प्रशांत ने ऐसा कोई बयान कभी नहीं दिया। इसके बावजूद, इस फेक न्यूज़ ने कुंभ के शांतिपूर्ण माहौल में हिंसा को भड़काने का काम किया। यह घटना महज एक संयोग नहीं हो सकती। कुंभ जैसे पवित्र आयोजन में ऐसी हिंसा और दुष्प्रचार योजनाबद्ध प्रतीत होते हैं। सवाल यह उठता है कि आखिर कौन लोग ऐसे कृत्यों के पीछे हैं और उनका उद्देश्य क्या है? क्या यह साजिश सनातन धर्म के भीतर विचारशीलता और सुधार के प्रयासों को रोकने के लिए है?

Contemporising Kumbh: Ancient wisdom, modern relevance
"Amrit—that is at the essence of the story behind the Kumbh festival. Where does the Amrit come from? It comes through self-reflection. What does one see when one honestly looks at himself? Nothing but that which is changing all the time, nothing but that which has been absorbed from the time-dependent world. On seeing the real nature of what we are inwardly attached to, the attachment weakens. This is freedom from that which changes and deceives and disappoints. In other words, this observation of one’s inner reality is freedom from death."

Swami Vivekananda: Struggle, Resilience, and Legacy
Acharya Prashant Featured on The Sunday Guardian: "If Vivekananda were here today, he would address the deeper conditioning of our time—the beliefs and confidence we hold. Swami Ji’s work would be equally difficult today since beliefs have changed; the believer has not. The one who loves to live in beliefs has not changed; it's just that he has changed his beliefs. He would tell today’s youth to challenge this relentless consumption. He would say that believing in something without thorough inquiry is mere superstition."

Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Neeraj Chopra recently met spiritual leader Acharya Prashant. During the meeting, Neeraj revealed how he first came across Acharya through his “4C Analysis” of India’s Olympic performance—a thought-provoking model that identifies Capital, Culture, Conformity, and Cricket as the core challenges holding Indian athletes back.
This spurred Neeraj to dive deeper, and he watched and read more of Acharya Prashant. Soon he found himself inspired to come to meet Acharya Ji face-to-face to discuss not just sports, but the essence of resilience and excellence. The Master and the Champion had a long dialogue lasting almost 2 hours, mesmerising those who were present there to silently witness.

Loneliness: The 21st Century Pandemic
Acharya Prashant
Featured on
The Sunday Guardian: "We are born ‘lonely’. When a child is born, the first instinct is to cry. This crying is not just a physical or biological reflex but also a psychological expression of distress. A newborn instinctively tries to hold onto something. If you offer your finger, the baby will grasp it tightly with its little fist. This inherent loneliness persists throughout a person’s life—at three, thirteen, thirty, fifty, or eighty years old—craving something to hold on to. This is because the ego, the I-tendency we are born with, is by definition lonely."
