about

This is a beautiful and frightening world. It’s no wonder that so many of us long for certainty, for principles and concepts and moral ground that doesn’t shift too much beneath our feet. But there’s a flip side to everything. When we get too certain, too sure, our hearts and minds get rigid. In the Hindu story Viddhi Kooshmandam, the career of a simple young man gives us a glimpse into another alternative.
