Why Stories?

Stories have to be told

And what a big tragedy it would be if we missed telling our story that would, otherwise, become someone’s memory aids, instruction manuals, and moral compasses.

So, we are with ‘two choices’ –

  1. We walk inside our story, own it, and tell the world OR
  2. Stand outside our story, and hustle for our own worthiness.

We decided to go with the first choice with a strong belief that if we can change one life with our story, then it is worth spending a thousand hours writing that story.

Our stories have no beginning or end. We arbitrarily choose the moment of experience from which to look back or from which to look ahead.

These are stories of tragedies, failures, successes, and resilience. These are stories of people, cities, and countries. Our goal is to promote ways of mindful living, and our stories are our primary tools to inspire, engage, and educate our audiences.

Why do we write about the Bhagavad Gita?

Bhagavad Gita has the best life teachings but most of the explanations have been either theistic or philosophical in nature, making it a difficult read for many. Everyone wants to read it but only a few actually do. 

Using a storytelling approach, we explain the practical applications of the Bhagavad Gita in our personal and professional lives. 

Who are we?

We are two individuals – one a business leader and the other a Yoga teacher – with our own explanations and thought process to the Bhagavad Gita. You can learn more about us here.

Do we need to believe Krishna as God to understand verses of the Bhagavad Gita?

ABSOLUTELY NOT. In fact, we might make many Krishna’s devotees uncomfortable because, at no point, we will preach Krishna as God.  

What else can you find?

  • Marvel, Star Wars, Harry Potter and many Bollywood movies. We will use these stories to explain some of the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita.

Trivia: Do you know the classic Bollywood movie Deewar (1975) is inspired by the Bhagavad Gita.

  • Verses of Bhagavad Gita are influenced by the Samkhya philosophy, Vedas and Upanishads; and Yoga. We will discuss these concepts.
