Nothing as strength or weakness! you are just what you are || Acharya Prashant, with youth (2013)
Speaker: You have assumed that there must be strengths and weaknesses.What if you just are and there are no strengths or no weaknesses?
What are the weaknesses of a Daisy flower? What are the weaknesses of a Rose flower?
Student: Sir, it has thorns.
Speaker: The flower does not have thorns, the plant has thorns, but the daisy flower may appear to have weaknesses if compared with the rose flower otherwise, it has no weaknesses. A Sunflower is a Sunflower, a Lotus flower is a Lotus flower, a Daisy flower is a Daisy flower, none of them have any weaknesses or strengths, but if you compare their sizes, then a Sunflower and a Lotus flower will appear to be stronger than the Rose flower in terms of size.They are all perfect as they are.
It is upon comparison that you start saying, I am strong or weak, and comparison is always foolish. You don’t have a strength and you don’t have a weakness, you are just what you are, where is the question of strength and weakness? We talked of your authenticity, you all are unique, and everybody is unique.
To label something as your strength, as your weakness can only be done when you are being compared against some standard.
Who is the tallest one here?
