Title: Living Without Illusions: A Lesson on Expectations and Reality || Acharya Prashant (2025)
Video Information: 14.01.2025, Goa
Description:
Acharya Prashant discusses the disappointment that arises when people’s projected values do not align with their actions. The root of this disillusionment is the unrealistic expectation that people are inherently good. Humans, by nature, operate through self-interest and deception, so it is important to approach the world with realism rather than idealism. Finding a workplace that aligns with true values is nearly impossible, as most institutions are driven by hidden motives.
The only way to live with integrity is to create an alternative world rather than trying to fit into a flawed system. Fighting against dishonesty is challenging but necessary, and rather than fearing defeat, one should take pride in resisting corruption. The discussion ends on an empowering note, encouraging a fearless approach to life’s struggles and emphasizing the importance of standing against falsehoods rather than succumbing to despair.
