Questioning pseudo-science and superstition is the first step toward genuine freedom. Beliefs such as *Vastu, Kundli,* and *Muhurat* should not be accepted merely because they have been followed traditionally. Fear and attachment to privileges often prevent people from questioning authority. A truth-seeker must be willing to challenge age, status, and authority. Human progress has come through curiosity, inquiry, experimentation, and reason—not through blind obedience.

Questioner (Q): Sir, as a woman, how should I perceive religion? Religion and culture are supposed to help, but I have practically seen that religion is associated with patriarchy and misogyny. Please tell me, as women how should I look at religion? Acharya Prashant (AP): See, the relationship…

Self-harm isn’t just about physically hurting ourselves. It is also when we live unconsciously, chasing goals given to us by society and family.

Love is not a mental or physical need. Love is not for the faint-hearted. Love is not for those who fear the loss of relationships, reputation, possessions or life. Love is not for those who are afraid of family, society, or uncertainty. Love is not for those who seek sanction from tradition or culture.

A guide to handling difficult periods, adapting to unexpected changes, learning from experiences, seeking support, and continuing forward with confidence and patience.

Short description for the E2E smoke test article.

Switzerland’s rejection of a population cap was not simply a vote on immigration but a reflection of a deeper difficulty: defining what is “enough.” Despite wealth, stability, and low birth rates, economic interdependence made limiting growth politically and practically costly. The episode highlights a broader human tendency, individual and collective, to keep expanding goals and expectations, while rarely questioning the endless pursuit of more or asking where growth should finally stop.

True yoga is not primarily about physical postures but about examining the ego, attachments, and motivations that shape one’s life. While the body can be trained and displayed, real discipline lies in honestly questioning desires, ambitions, and borrowed goals. Techniques and routines alone cannot bring inner freedom. Yoga begins when one repeatedly investigates who is setting the direction of life and whether that direction has ever been consciously examined.

The dowry demand is typically presented in public discourse as an anachronism, a stubborn remnant of a less enlightened India that education, urbanisation, and explicit legal prohibition have somehow failed to dislodge, a framing that mistakes the institution’s most explicit expression for a departure from it. But is dowry an aberration within the institution of marriage, or the institution’s own operating logic, followed to its economic conclusion?

\"स्वतंत्रता कोई उपहार नहीं, बल्कि एक उपलब्धि है जिसे प्रत्येक व्यक्ति को स्वयं अर्जित करना पड़ता है। राजनीतिक स्वतंत्रता हमें विरासत में मिल सकती है, किंतु मानसिक और आध्यात्मिक स्वतंत्रता के लिए सतत प्रयास

You see, what does it mean to say that “righteousness is on decline”? Mind is moving away from Krishna. Mind is moving away from Krishna. Krishna is the centre of the mind. Right? Krishna is the centre of mind. As soon as the mind moves away from the Krishna, the centre applies a spring like force on the mind.

Hindi article on restlessness by AP

Questioner(Q): What is the process of clarity? Is it just listening with immersion and no resistance? What is Truth? How we decide it?

Acharya Prashant (AP): Listening without effort, plus if there is Truth in what you hear, there is change and transformation, and that Truth becomes the master. We…

"Cult means personality worship. Where the entire teaching is that personality is false and the Self is truth, where will personality worship come from? And there is nothing in my personality worthy of personality worship. If one wants to worship like that, there are many standing in line whose entire job is to polish their personality.”

This article is related to restlessness.

When powerful narratives in all walks of life are seeking to monopolize public conversation and crowd out, or forcefully silence dissenting voices, freedom of expression becomes even more valuable. But with this liberty comes a set of questions: Are we truly expressing ourselves, or merely reacting? Are our statements a product of inner lucidity, or are they born of internal unrest? Technology now gives us unprecedented power to communicate and connect. And this freedom comes with the responsibility of expressing from awareness and reality—not conditioning, misinformation, or chaos.

Questioner: Although we start speaking, listening and interacting with the world between the age of two and three years, we do not remember much from our early childhood. In one of your videos, you said that when pure witnessing happens, it doesn’t get registered in the memory. Is this the…

Anybody who believes in astrology cannot be rational. All you have is a set of beliefs—the belief that this thing will happen. There is no logic in it, only fear and insecurity. Science is based on verifiable and falsifiable experiments, whereas astrology is not subject to verification; hence, it is just a story. It's a story that is making big money for a lot of storytellers.

The woman is simpler, more innocent. I would dare to say the woman is simple and innocent just as animals are, because woman, just like animals, is biology-driven. She is emotional, and her emotions do not really arise from understanding, not even from intellect. Her emotions arise from her body, from her biological conditioning, from her hormones.

जन्म-मरण का चक्र क्यों है? इसका अर्थ यही नहीं है कि शिष्य बस इतना ही पूछना चाहता है कि कोई जन्मता क्यों है, कोई मरता क्यों है, चक्र क्यों चल रहा है। वो वास्तव में सबकुछ पूछ रहा है, सबकुछ। अब ये पढ़ने वाले की बुद्धि पर है कि वो इस बात को समझ जाए कि इतना ही नहीं पूछा गया है कि जन्म-मरण का चक्र क्यों है।

I had to unlearn a lot of things, and I am grateful to all the sources—the books, the people and the experiences that helped me unlearn. And I am grateful to that within me that had the courage to unlearn. A lot of unlearning is needed. I often say you need to learn love. By that what I mean is that you need to unlearn false love. And it’s one mighty task to unlearn false love, transactional love, the transactional love that both biology and society teach you.

जो कुछ बाहर से आ रहा है, वो भाग्य के अधीन है, उस पर आपका कोई नियंत्रण नहीं। सुख-दुःख, लाभ-हानि, जन्म-मरण — सब संयोग हैं। ये इसलिए बताया गया है ताकि आप इन पर नियंत्रण करने की व्यर्थ कोशिश छोड़ दें। जिस पर नियंत्रण किया ही नहीं जा सकता, उसे नियंत्रित करने में ऊर्जा और समय व्यर्थ करेंगे। इस झूठी सुरक्षा भावना से बचें और अपनी ऊर्जा वहीं लगाएँ जहाँ वह सच में फलदायी हो सकती है।

Something is very wrong somewhere. The first thing in liberation is: do not be dependent on somebody, at least for your bread, for your basic sustenance. What kind of empowerment is this that happily accepts dependence on somebody else’s money on a date, and also for an entire lifetime? It…
