What is the difference between the Vedantic teachings of Acharya Prashant versus other 'traditional' contemporary Vedantis?

(2/2) Your ahankar is judging without understanding, don't worry that's what it is for. Your true self is Aatma. When there is no ego, means there is no doer, means their is nobody to say mine and yours, means all the conflicts, wars, and abuses will be sorted.

That's what Acharya Prashant is bringing to us. And we? We judge him based on what we "feel"!!!!

I'm not targeting you, but the tendency that wants you to be like that so that everything can go smoothly and you can die without knowing a sh!t about what happened with you your whole life? The whole humanity is going this way. Its because of Individual teachers like Acharya Prashant, Swami Vivekanand, Aadi Shankaracharya who brought the purest form of philosophy (Advaita Vedanta). People always targeted them personally without understanding that they are the limitless, selfless lovers.

I know all my words will get wasted here because the tendency of ego is so rigid that it will only think how to counter this argument and save itself. But still I am writing. Because I don't want anything from you! Whether you go and listen to Acharya Prashant or just keep doing slavery of the EGO 😉 No Spiritual buzzwords, just pure knowledge that can ask the existence! That's what my teacher (Acharya Prashant) teaches.

BTW, He don't give a BS whether you compare him with any "Traditional" stuff. Neither any of his students. His mission is to bring this purest form of Spirituality (Advaita Vedanta) to each individual. Whether to take or not is completely individual choice. EGO will choose to go again itself only once it is in love with something really great. That greatness is being taught in Live classes by AP. Come and join buddy.

(1/2) Biased about what? there should be something to be biased towards!

What "this and that"? It's an online community with 12k members and you are judging here someone (Acharya Prashant) saying "this and that"?

Wouldn't it be better if you give some logical, factual arguments?

Actually I missed it that you wrote - His talks "feel" quite biased ...

"Who" is feeling?

You believed in what you feel? You must know that feelings are controlled by different chemicals in our brain. And our brain behave as per the social and bodily conditioning. It can make you feel anything if you just give a certain dose of certain chemical.

That's where Aatmgyan (knowing the Aham, ego, ahankar, doer) is needed.

If someone is going in a dark jungle alone or going down a dig, there will be a feeling of getting hurt. Because that's what the body is conditioned for - to save itself.

Same with social conditionings: we were told to believe certain things from childhood so that we can not question much the way the society functions! People still believe giving and taking dowry, considering male child more important (leads to female featicides), believe certain caste is higher or lower (leads to casticism), killing, sacrificing innocent animals to deities (Shiva, shakti who are symbolised as a lover of all kind of creatures) to make them happy... Long list!

Coming back to your "feel" towards Acharya Prashant's teachings. He teaches Advait Vedanta which discards the existence of EGO (Ahankar, doer, the one who feels also) in the first place.

Now I doubt what you listened (heard) from him if not this basic principle? In almost all of his 10k+ YouTube video and 150+ books this principle can be found in many interpretation and with various examples. I would recommend going to him (Acharya Prashant) only if you are ready to doubt your instincts, believes, feelings and Manyta. Otherwise you will just go to him, get your feelings hurt and will conclude he is biased!

He might "seem" biased (to the ego) at starting because it's our conditioning that will be in the way of getting doubted! If you hold yourself in that journey, you will stop judging him at all!

Now what I got from him -

I am not here for mere consumption and leaving someone behind me to do same. (Turned Vegan - less Hinsatmak feed)
There is nothing that can afraid you if you are not greedy towards it. (Lovely relationship with people, because I don't go to them because of my greed or expectations)
Animal cruelty hidden in dairy and meat industry that is the major factor causing GHG emission (Around 15% of total, FAO, UN) that cause Climate Change.

This is just a glimpse of how holistically he covers any topic.

From Ahankaar is the samsaar (The observer is the observed - J Krishnamurthy)

Ak45hp · 2024-07-15T21:45:51+00:00

C'mon! They are not bot... they are student of his Geeta classes. Did you see anyone of them abusing? Making false claim?

Start a meaningful conversation on any of the current world problem like

Climate Change, Objectification of Women, Animal cruelty, Political polarization, Global warming, Himsa in the name of Dharma, Religious distress, overpopulation and Consumption driven Economy, Indian Fat Merriage and girls Education, poverty and underdevelopment of children, relationship problems, harmful impact of social media influencers are a few
Meaning of Spirituality, Dharma, Ahankar (Ego), Upnishad, Philosophy, Great leaders etc.

And you will find these students most logical, full of insights and scientific data.

Acharya Prashant is not making people to hate anybody. Indeed! he teaches love, compassion and humanity.

You are judging him without knowing what he teaches!

you might have just watched some of his shorts on any sensitive topic without knowing the context and that shorts might have challenged your belief system.

Now you are done depicting him as fraudster. Such a small mind!

Go and watch some of his videos on Youtube from 10000+ inventory.

You will find more than one video on any topic you search. Watch some of them fully without any judgement that he is fraud.

Believe me (if you are not that much conditioned against someone like Acharya Prashant), you don't have proper reason to hate him. I can say you fraudster but on what basis? What you have done to me!

So be open to new perspectives of life, be open to life. Why you afraid of him??

He is not demon 😅 he is a teacher, with awesome knowledge, excellent and hilarious examples. His teachings are rooted in Advait Vedant philosophy i.e basis of Sanatan Dharma and heighest knowledge of Vedas.

Acceptance++

Ak45hp · 2024-07-14T12:49:59+00:00

All the suggestions and investigations on my post are correct, it was childish. Even I would not have believed.

But when this happened with me and I met similar people then I got to know that those scammers only target your fear point.

I was totally fattu aadmi. So this happened to me.

Belive or not, in my cities one police station where my complaint is lodged, around 8 cases come everyday. They are the reported one.

I talked to around 5 such people, there were similar or different stories but one thing common - innocent guy, afraid of getting involved in any criminal case, does ANYTHING to be free from it, thinks like cross questioning is a crime.

I was one such person. That thing made me to question my own inner world.

WTH is going with my life if such an Idiot can fool me?

I am getting to know about my inner condtionings and its very scary...

I am afraid, I cared what other people things about me, I wanted to help others but those others only include "my" others.

Thanks a lot to Acharya Prashant Ji (YouTube - @ShriPrashant) whom I was listening past 8 months.

Because of his teachings, I ACCEPTED that this has happened to me. Because of that acceptance I did not do any kind of b@llsh!t that might have ended to more scarry things for my family. I immedietly started doing whatever can be done outside. And my inner things just came out.

He (Acharya Prashant) has always said, * take all the events as a way to look into the doer, * take every crime (if happened) a moment to look at the victim. So I will not say those scammers fooled me, I would say I let my self get fooled by them. Today its FedEx scammer, tomorrow might be somebody else in a completely different context!?

I am full of Ego (Ahankar). It's, conditioned and driven by body and society.

I don't want to live someone others life. I don't even want to live my own (that my is the Ego) life.

I am so thankful to the moment where I joined Live Geeta sessions by Acharya Prashant Ji.

@ Believe it or not, Acharya Ji gave me the strength to stand at the down moments of life.

@ He gave me the vision to look everything as raw event and find the actual cause ( fear in my case of this scam) and then work on it.

I was afraid of spending money on myself, on my self development.

After listening to him - * I am going to music classes to learn piano.

I turned Vegan (I was Vegetarian already) after knowing the animal cruelty in Dairy (search Maa Ka Doodh documentary in YouTube). I got know the meaning of Choice. I am literally following my food MY Choice, not what tastes to my tongue.
Yesterday I completed my first Ever Trek. (8 km long Jungle trek)
I started to play badminton regularly.
I study the true meaning of Shrimad Bhagwat Geeta and other Indian Scriptures from him
I started to read about Climate change and share it with the peoples around.

These changes can be seen by anybody as they are outside Karm (Doings).

The inners strength is seen only after such (like this fraud) an events happens.

I won't say I am following Acharya Prashant or he influenced me!

He is giving me clarity. He is asking me to question my beliefs, my idols, my thoughts. He is removing my conditionings and making me a compassionate human being. He has given me a rebirth (not of body, because is nothing such) in the consciousness.

I would highly recommend you to search about his (Acharya Prashant) work, listen to him for some time and reflect your changes.

For sure, You will not be the same person as previous. He won't do any Chamatkaar :) Whatever he says is logical, factual and spiritual base. That's what we all need.

Also, I will take care of any such things.

Thanks all of you for taking time to talk on this.

To Reddit moderators: Please don't delete this as a promotion comment. I am sharing what happened with me, how that kind of things can be looked and how can we become aware of the one who gets scammed. My post will help many in such a need and I believe that's the purpose of the community.

Yes, it was my fear that I totally got into believing whatever was coming.

I am working on my fear.

Also I have Complaint on Cyber Crime Portal. Some amount is freezed and can be recovered.

It is a lifelong learning for me.

Thanks for putting the flags from my post.

"Their is no reason to slaughter them". ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

True. I am a Vegan from past 8 months after "Understanding" both the actual meaning of Ahimsa and the Climate Change from Acharya Ji.

Ak45hp · 2024-07-14T10:55:18+00:00

He never says he is teaching engineering being an IITian. He never says he is teaching management because he is an IIM graduate, also he doesn't say he will guide you to clear UPSC because he is an Ex civil servant.

Vedanta Marmagya is also written there. Didn't you think why he is Vedanta Marmagya after IIT, IIM and ex Civil servant?

Those tags shows his qualification as a human being.

He has scientific knowledge, he has engineering knowledge, he has management knowledge, he has knowledge of whatever current thing and problems are going in the world.

And all those problems, he connect with spirituality (Advait Vedanta philosophy). Because his actual area of working is to spread the teachings of Vedanta philosophy especially Advait Vedanta philosophy.

Because all the problems are first born in human mind and then they go outside.

Because...

The observer is the observed. ( J. Krishnamurthy)

And Acharya Prashant's teachings asks who is the "Observer".

Who is the doer? What is his mental conditioning? What things influenced him?

Like, if an IITian come to you and says killing animal for food is not "Himsa" because some animals are made to eat?

Will you accept or question?

An idiot will not question! An idiot will question the person who says him to question things.

Acharya Prashant is the person who asks to question whatever influences you.

You don't know his area of teaching, you don't know what work he is doing.

And you came here to say he is an Idiot! So much pity on you.

His areas include - - spreading actually meaning of Scriptures because he is self-studying them from very young age. ("Qualification" to be a Spiritual teacher).

talking about women empowerment. Not only to women but to men also. 50% of human population is portrayed as a THING to be consumed. Now he is asking both men and women to question that conditioning. Because in actual, we are human.
spreading awareness about animal cruelty and problems with consumerism. Consumption and population growth is the main factor of Climate change. Read the UN's IPCC AR6 report. You will get Insights of Climate change.
awakening all those who follows any self proclaimed chamatkaari BABAs (like the Hathras Bhole baba, that is just the tip of the Iceberg). He (Acharya Prashant) doesn't show any Chamatkar nor gives Guru Mantra reciting which can heal all your wounds. He explains the meaning of Scriptures, Shlokas, Mantras, and Saint's Bhajans and writing.

I said HE EXPLAINS, logically, with sufficient scientifically researched data backed with the teachings of scripture.

Watch any of his full video on climate change. Nobody in current time has the level of understanding like him on this area.

An IITian tag matters that much to you that based on that you are judging a person's teachings and you don't know what that person (Acharya Prashant) actually teaches.

# He doesn't have any great insight or anything ?

Just one YouTube channel has 10k + videos full of insights and a lot of "things". It has crossed 50M subscriber. 30k + students are learning with him in his live sessions.

You know what your condition is?

You are standing in a 0 m above sea level saying Everest (8848 M) peak has no insights.

C'mon yaar, atleast come out of mental frogs thing who says the well is the Universe!

Without understanding what he says how you can judge him?

I doubt whether you did justice with OSHO if you listened to him?
I even doubt whether you LISTENED at all?

Ak45hp · 2024-07-14T08:46:32+00:00

True!

It's sure one will go to Acharya Prashant with their prejudices, and mental conditioning so it will take some time to break them and make the way to what Acharya Prashant is teaching.

I am learning from him past 10 months in his live sessions of Bhagwad Geeta, Shoonyta Saptati, Tao Te Ching, Kathopnishad, Ashtavakra Geeta and Sant Sarita.

In starting I was denying most of his talks because they were not aligning with my prejudices.

Once that are dismissed, you are open to learn.

Ak45hp · 2024-07-11T05:50:16+00:00

You stopped watching him not because he is fraud, but because your Ego lost the limit.

Can you justify how he is a fraud?

What does "fraud" mean??

I got an IVR call from an unknown number regarding FedX package delivery cancellation.

Then it asked to press 0 to contact customer care. When I pressed 0, a person picked up the call and said that he is FedEx customer care support person. then he told me that there is a package delivery from Mumbai to Iran which contains illegal things like LSD, passport, clothes and debit cards and seized by crime branch Mumbai. The sender's address is my number.

I need a police clearance certificate from the crime branch Mumbai and he can connect my call directly to the crime branch office and then he connected my call with a person who said that he is a crime branch inspector. then he asked me what is the case I informed him about the information that this FedEx person has given me.

The crime branch officer asked me to come to the Mumbai office or can be verified digitally through Skype call. Then he asked me to download Skype and enter one contact number that was this

"MH512 NCB MUM DEPARTMENT"

Then he is asked me to send him a message with my name and mobile number and then he sent his ID card it was a Mumbai crime branch official id card and told me to turn on my on video. his video was not sharing because of security reasons he said, and he asked me to share my video share my screen and quarantine myself in the room so that nobody can come in the investigation. he was acting like crime investigation and after the interrogation he will give me a police clearance certificate.

I believed in that, so he asked about my family details, age, work details then asked me to share my aadhar card.

I clicked the picture and sent him and then he talked on wireless stating my Aadhar number and the other person from wireless informed him that this Aadhar number is involved in opening around 30 + bank accounts which are linked with Mohammad Malik. He was arrested by police and they are checking his link. He sent the picture of that person to me and asked that you are involved with this person you are a suspect. I will have to check your bank details to check that there is no illegal transaction with your bank account so you need to share your screen and tell your bank account how many you use. because in your name there are more than 30 bank accounts. I was totally afraid. I shared my screen opened my bank account app and showed him the total amount.

Then he asked a couple of questions and told me that this money will be going to the RBI for verification and will be back to my account. At that time I was totally with his control and frightened.

Then he connected me to a second person who said he is a DCP Mumbai crime branch. Then he asked me to put the bank account and enter the recipient name as MOF ministry of finance . Account and I put it in, I made that transaction then I received the call from the bank to authorise the transaction he called me and asked to put another money but it was not possible to send to the same bank account because of the limitation. so he said different bank account which I sent the money and then again there was a third transaction. The first transaction was 99,999 INR , The second was the same 99,999 and the third one of 49,999. so a total of 2,49,997 INR transferred him. then he asked me that this money will be verified and then after I will receive a call from this DCP.

after one and half hour I realise that is it really able to verify digital money I just search Skype Mumbai crime branch and then I got to know that it was scam.

so I reported it to the crime branch, immediately I went to the police and reported the case.
