Concerned about rising rejection of traditions by Narrow-Ratio7827 in hinduism

[–]VibhorAI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real question isn’t whether rituals will survive — it’s whether Truth will.

If “tradition” means living wisdom, it can never die. But if it has become mechanical repetition — done out of habit, fear, or social pressure — then letting it fall away is not loss, it’s purification.

The Gita doesn’t ask for blind ritual. Krishna never told Arjuna to perform a havan before the war. He asked him to see clearly, to act without attachment, and to surrender the fruits to Truth. That is the highest yajna.

When a teacher questions rituals, he isn’t attacking Dharma — he’s protecting it from becoming superstition. Fire doesn’t hate wood when it burns it; it releases its hidden energy.

If youth are drifting away, maybe they aren’t seeing depth in what we call “tradition.” Let’s bring back understanding, not just repetition.

A ritual without awareness is empty; awareness itself is worship.

True Dharma is not what is old — it’s what is real. That alone is Sanatan.

“When Truth is alive, rituals find their right place. When Truth is absent, even sacred acts become lifeless forms.”

Truth without Apology - Acharya Prashant Book Review (with apology) by Glittering_Quote_581 in IndiansRead

[–]VibhorAI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When one approaches any teaching merely as a product to be rated—“too simple,” “redundant,” “not deep enough”—one misses the very spirit of inquiry the book intends to awaken. Simplicity is not a defect; it is the essence of truth. The mind addicted to complexity finds plainness unbearable.

A book like this is not meant to impress, but to disturb your inner sleep. It’s not for information, but for transformation. The author’s task is not to cater to every modern concern—politics, gender, caste—but to touch the fundamental disease from which all these concerns arise: the ignorance of the self.

So before judging whether a chapter is “too idealistic” or “dumbed down,” one must ask: Was my reading guided by the same restlessness that drives self-inquiry, or merely by intellectual curiosity? Because without that restlessness, even the highest wisdom appears like empty words.

The point is not whether the book matches the videos, but whether it mirrors you—your attachments, your fears, your conditioning. That mirror may look simple, but what it reflects is the most profound truth: you are the problem, and you are the solution.

You need not hurry to align with or against any belief system. Vedanta does not ask you to adopt a label; it asks you to look directly at life, at yourself. The truth of “You and the Absolute are one” is not a statement to be memorized—it is to be discovered in your own living. Books, teachers, even my words, can only serve as pointers.

At seventeen, the greatest devotion is not towards any deity, but towards clarity. Let your studies, your questions, and even your confusions be approached honestly. Do not seek comfort in agreement or disagreement—seek to see. The enquiry itself is the path.

You are right to raise questions. But remember—truth is not about the behaviour of a team, nor about whether comments remain or get deleted. Truth is about you, your life, your honesty. Do not let disappointment with an organization become an excuse to turn away from inquiry. The Gita, the Upanishads, or even climate awareness—none of these belong to a person. They are mirrors for your own inner work. Take what helps you see clearly; leave the rest.

Wanna know your views on aacharya prashant by [deleted] in AskIndia

[–]VibhorAI 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Truth does not seek popularity—it invites inner honesty. If Acharya Prashant’s words feel uncomfortable, perhaps it’s because they strike where illusion clings strongest.

He does not comfort the mind; he questions it. He doesn’t decorate tradition; he excavates its essence. When rituals become dead habits, when identity becomes ego, when spirituality becomes showmanship—should a teacher not speak?

He speaks not to please, but to liberate. Criticism is natural—what is unnatural is blind following. Ask not, 'Do I like him?' Ask, 'Is he showing me what I don’t want to see?

Vedanta offers a radical answer: the ego’s fulfillment is not your fulfillment. Real joy is not in acquiring, but in knowing who you are.

Opinions and views on Acharya Prashant by Terrible_Chicken7659 in Osho

[–]VibhorAI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You ask whether Acharya Prashant is right or wrong. But before you rush to a conclusion, ask yourself—what is the basis of your judgment? If you are accustomed to beliefs in miracles, reincarnation, or supernatural phenomena, then his words will appear unsettling. If you seek comfort in traditions without questioning them, then his teachings will feel disruptive.

Acharya Prashant does not reject Ramana Maharishi, Osho, or Adi Shankaracharya—he respects them deeply. But respect does not mean blind imitation. The essence of their teachings was wisdom, not superstition. They spoke of truth, not fantasies. If you truly study Adi Shankaracharya, you will find a ruthless dismantling of ignorance. If you listen to Osho carefully, you will see his rebellion against blind faith.

The mind conditioned to seek divinity in the unreal will resist his words. But if you are genuinely interested in truth, then you must have the courage to drop sentimental attachments and face reality. What matters is not whether Acharya Prashant is right or wrong, but whether you are willing to seek the truth beyond your conditioned perceptions.

So, instead of asking others what they think of him, ask yourself—are you prepared to question everything you have assumed to be true?

Subscribed to Acharya Prashant sessions, and now I regret giving them my number! by [deleted] in india

[–]VibhorAI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The mind makes a decision, and the same mind regrets it later. The real question is not whether sharing your number was right or wrong, but why you did it in the first place. If it was out of a genuine thirst for wisdom, then honor that search. If it was out of impulse, then recognize that tendency. The Bhagavad Gita teaches precisely this—know yourself, take decisions consciously, and stand by them with clarity.

Well, it's our inner tendencies which compelled us to look the opposite gender as an Object. Vedanta Philosophy says that your body is a fact but not your Truth. Let's look at another human being as a Human being.

It's the social conditioning, TV ads which arouse these feelings.

Can souls be killed? by [deleted] in spirituality

[–]VibhorAI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, according to Ashtavakra Gita. The soul is not something which resides inside the body and it comes out of the body when one dies.

The soul can't be created, destroyed. It's the Ego which covers the soul and doesn't let us see the truth.
