Mind, Body and Culture are in conflict !




Fervor to be Free : A Tale of Tussle between Mind , Body and Us


BACK PAGE

A truly engaging book that takes you on an exciting journey through unexplored areas in the human mind, and the culture outside.

From the breathtaking view from the balcony of the Hilton Hawaii to the cramped environs of a New Delhi courtroom, the author, in one breezy script, narrates his own experiences, not as mere ups and downs of life, but as events leading to answer every human’s eternal question: Who am I?

Despite the limitations of his inherited genes, nurturing and turns of fate, he sets out to find his answers and ends up searching for something much greater: the purpose of his life. Bringing together science, religion, and his own life experiences, he lays bare the human mind and its mysterious workings in a manner few have attempted.

The book effortlessly examines effervescent thoughts, compelling events, and executed actions that are so much a part of our lives against the set human culture. Most insightful in it is the complex interplay of body and mind in the pursuit of the “good-life”, happiness, and something much deeper.

Scientific facts, psychological theories, religious texts, news feeds and real-life events all woven in, the book presents a compelling narrative sure to set readers on their own paths to find their own answers and script their own stories, may be even destinies.

The video teaser for the Book is available.

It makes sense to know this amalgamation more, because I have known people who were put-off by this very mixture and walked away to do business elsewhere. The reason was not with the particular culture, but simply a culture which make one feel uncomfortable dealing with. It works as a cultural turn-off.  It

Dodging past a pandemic first hand !

I n Dec of 2019 I clearly remember to be busy charting my plan for the year to come. I was on a vacation in India and emails crisscrossed between me and my business contacts, affiliated organizations, work partners and friends. In fact, I had a more than a full year on hand, with trips and travels spread across the whole year. Little did I know then that the year will turn out to be just the opposite. Passing through Singapore In mid-January I left India and passed Singapore on my way to Philippines in the midst of a report of a SARS-CoV type outbreak in Wuhan China in some media. It was not yet a headline news as the information coming out was sketchy. In Singapore nothing looked out of place, as people crisscrossed with carefree exuberance. Frolicking backpackers mixed with intense looking businessmen mixed from all corners of the globe, as had happened always in this country. This was also the time for heightened tourism as holidays were being used to travel as much as possible.
