Frontlist- ‘As you sow, so shall you reap’, how did you use this quote in your book? Apr 12 2022 63678 Views
Hari- We have been hearing this phrase for time immemorial. A deed, whether good or
bad, when undertaken, will come back to us. What does this mean? Not according to any
line of thought or fancy philosophy, but actually? A subtle discovery during my journey of
self-awareness was that the brain keeps track of all we want to do – promulgated by our
self-talk – and throws it back at us. Such throwback, if you allow me to use that word,
results in either stress, anxiety or momentary contentment.  

Frontlist- This is your debut book, share your experience of the same?

Hari- This book is special to me in many ways. First, it allowed the opportunity to explain
a complex subject in a refreshingly simple way. Second, I experienced significant writer’s
blocks many times. But of that block, a block of words came! Thirdly, this book helped me
to experience some things I had a very conceptual understanding of – such as the nature
of time and our true nature. 

Frontlist- What are some of the common misconceptions about the working
patterns of the brain?

Hari- A common misunderstanding is the brain is tricking the person or wired against
the person. In my view, when every other part of the body selflessly works to strive for Homi J Bhabha: A

Hari- The walnut is symbolic of the brain. The term for amygdala, a vital part of the brain
involved in processing of emotions, is derived from the Greek word amygdale, meaning Interview With

(memories of everything around ourselves including people and things). By storage,
these two types can be classified as working memory (those sets of memories that are
used / recalled frequently) and distributed memories (those that are not used /

Hari- We have been conditioned since childhood based on our nationality, religion, caste,
ethnic origin, skin color and so on. Our true nature lies beyond all that social knowledge.
Shed everything you know about yourself and the true nature will emerge. And that true
nature holds good for you, me and all other beings and things around us. We may call it by
different names – God, Brahman, Allah, Holy Spirit and so on – but our labels don’t
matter. Our ancient scientists realized this and coined this beautiful word – Vedanta – Featured Videos
which means Veda + Anta. ‘Veda’ means knowledge / memory and ‘anta’ means the
end. The end of memory. When there is no influence of memory, the truth shall emerge!
