A breezy, easy conversation on topics which are seriously worth contemplating on. Modern day stress, the ways we numb ourselves to sleep, fear of the future, our need to have good relationships, our expectations of validation, the unhealthy focus on achieving perfection on the job, learning to 'live through it', finding the path to peace through our journey...there is a wealthy storehouse of deep,…
The Productivity Paradox: We start talking about learning to be productive in the times of Artificial Intelligence. With AI entering so many aspects of our lives, and the ease with which we can access it, this is a question taking up a lot of mind-space. The Perception Gap: Before we know it, the topic veers between the overall impact of AI, our understanding, our lack of information about the…
Have you wondered how Alice felt when she went down that rabbithole? In this episode, you will know at least some of it. Light and heavy, madly creative and scientifically precise, emotional or rational, whatever tickles your fancy, this episode might be fulfilling, or then again, it might have you asking for more, as we delve deeper into each and every small and big thought-way which seems…
Deepa speaks passionately, happily, excitedly, deeply and evocatively about all things under the sun. And she does this with a lot of old-world wisdom. I have heard this kind of world-view after a long time, and it is so heartening to see pockets of moving slowly, deliberately, engaging with the moments exist like she describes. This conversation has depth and stories in equal measure. Do check it…
The fast pace of life seems important, especially with technology being a part of our existence in many ways. Yet, there is some real substance to this digging into the reasons why and what we should slow down, allowing the moments to be lived fully and teach us what we are supposed to be learning. We speak about the times we need to rush, the times we need to pause and respond slowly, the…
There are conversations which have a clear drift, and then there are those which keep on moving without an 'exact direction'. This is one such, which draws you into its mystery, its unsure parts, its incomplete answers. And why not? We have Mustafa Chharchhoda for a guest, and he speaks vivaciously, using his arms to complete sentences, or his expressions to convey helplessness at saying things…
The question is simple enough: How do we get happiness to stay longer or even permanently? The answer opens to one point of query and then another till we keep going to the core of what our question is, along with other possible pain-points like: finding who the responsibility of our unhappiness lies with, discussing threadbare the role of others and the circumstances which lead us to…
Youth means parties, shopping, the traditional version of the 'good life', as we see it today. And yet, here is a young girl, walking a different path altogether...early nights, early mornings, Yoga, working with truthfulness, talking about so many deeper things simply that it is uplifting. A beautiful casual kind of chat, and yet the topic, the Q & A, and the implications are anything but casual.…
Once more Hemant Gupta joins me in a deep introspection on one of humankind's most incisive challenges: Our relationship with Grief. And once more, he brings in a perspective which challenges our 'definitions' as also our easy acceptance of them as factual. He reminds us of some of the points he has made in the past, and I for one, think, instead of being repetitive, they seem to stand up as…
The discussion starts on a fun term 'Insidely-Outsidely' and immediately, my guest, John Britton provokes another look at the binary version of how we see life. He explains why assumptions are necessary and how we need to hold them loosely. Inner reality and the external manifestation are also looked at from different angles. He is a trainer of artists and therefore, has a methodical explanation…
