Aridaman is possibly the most learned person I have met. It’s impressive how firm he is on his principles yet so open about the world around him. This intrigued me the first time we crossed paths, and I had to get him on the pod and pick his brains on the Bhagwad Gita, the learnings from his life, his principles, and untold learnings from our scriptures. In this episode of Pragyaan, we dive into all these topics and you get a sneak peek into Aridaman’s mind, life choices, and the ideal way of living as the scriptures tell us. He spoke at length about his learnings and how he has benefitted from them. We spoke about: How Rational Thinking is Different from BeliefHow our scriptures have always been liberal; andWhy do people misinterpret the text It was a mindful conversation, which I don’t think you should miss.

Caption @Pragya
We all love magic, don’t we? The intrigue of having your mind read by a random person whom you met an hour ago is thrilling, and that is what I lived when this episode with Kunal Newar was shot.
Being the person I am, it is required for me to travel a lot, and every time I try to make the most of it. So, it was last month in Mumbai that I met Kunal, and Oh, I’ll tell you that he is nothing less than charming. Not only is he an excellent mentalist, but also a person who is full of magic and stories, and that’s what we aim to bring out in this conversation with Kunal on Pragyaan.
Today, we launch the 32nd episode of Pragyaan with Kunal Newar. This episode has everything from magic, mind reading, stories, and lessons, and I believe it will be an interesting watch if you want to learn some magic yourself.
The episode is scheduled to drop at 7 PM today. The link is in the bio.
