Full Video: Let's understand Nationalism || Acharya Prashant, with IRMA (2023)
Transcript
00:00Just because you are born on Indian territory, the subtle fact is that you do not qualify to be called a real Indian.
00:08But you do not become an Indian by your place of birth. You become an Indian by your heart.
00:13Do you value freedom? Do you have love for the truth? Can you lay down your life for something beyond yourself?
00:19If yes, then you are an Indian. If no, then you are just an Indian in name.
00:23The kind of Indians who think Indian less nice in cheering for the cricket team or beating other people down or berating other countries.
00:32India is a spirit. The spirit that you find in Vedanta. The spirit that does not impose anything on the mind.
00:40A spirit that just asks. The spirit that says I want to know. Does not say I already know. Does not say my beliefs are correct.
00:47I will not let any consideration be too much on me. Nothing is bigger than truth.
00:52And that's why you see India knows love. Because true love can only be towards the truth.
