Acharya Prashant in Britain: Bhagavad Gita Draws Packed Audience in Central London
On July 2, Acharya Prashant's public session in Central London witnessed yet another extraordinary turnout. The auditorium was filled to capacity even before the session began, while over 1 lakh people joined online. In this memorable discourse on the Bhagavad Gita, Acharya Prashant explained that the purpose of spirituality is not to evaluate scriptures, history, or personalities, but to know oneself. The session was part of his UK tour, during which he has already addressed distinguished audiences including Members of Parliament, as well as students, researchers, and faculty, at prestigious institutions such as the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, and the House of Lords in the British Parliament.
During the session, Acharya Prashant also emphasised that while the mind is always eager to judge the world, it avoids looking at itself, even though genuine transformation begins with self-inquiry. He said that truth is not a matter of belief or religion but of self-knowledge, which is why the Bhagavad Gita remains profoundly relevant to human life even today. Earlier, as part of London Climate Action Week 2026, Acharya Prashant participated in several dialogues, including a landmark conversation with renowned animal consciousness expert Professor Jonathan Birch. This public gathering marked yet another significant milestone in the tour, carrying the timeless Indian message of self-knowledge to global audiences.
Videos from the session will be released soon.
