Progress — that’s the religion of today. Everyone wants a good life, everyone wants comforts and everything. In fact, all the old religions have been defeated. Christianity has been defeated, Hinduism has been defeated, they all have been defeated. This one religion has defeated everything.

Greed is today’s religion.

If you fight this new religion called greed, and why must you not fight it? We are fighting religions that are anyway decadent, that are anyway taking their last breath.

What is the point in fighting these moribund religions?

Listener: But how do you fight it? It is so strongly prevalent and running away is not an option.

Acharya Prashant: You have to demonstrate it, you have to be it, otherwise there is no dearth of talkers. Waging one’s tongue is so easy. You have to really demonstrate it. Your life has to be the proof.

When you say that it is possible to challenge the false, then your life has to be proof of that challenge. And when you come up to people not only with your words but with the backing of your life, then people appreciate it, then you are credible. Otherwise, you are just talking, so it has to begin with you. First of all, you have to be that who can be the messenger, who can be the Teacher.
