Oh, this does not sound like a Vetāla story! Well, to tell you the truth, I was all about to start the 21st story when someone pinged me on aa new book that they had read…on death. Written by a prominent Indian ‘happy’ guru, the book was all about death and how to approach it. …
Read the previous part here… So International Day of Yog came and went, and I hope that you made something of it. Other than striking a pose on Instagram I mean. That’s the thing isn’t it? When we celebrate something, it has to be outwardly, out-worldly, mostly external. Birthday? Put up pics to show how …
Read the previous part here… Tomorrow is International Yoga Day. How do I start yoga? Quite a common question yes?

So International Yoga Day is upon us once again. And it’s that time of the year, when we all receive mails from studios, big and small, for a 1-2 hour free session, mostly to bait you for the monthly or quarterly sessions.

Apparently, if you are online, you are available to speak more and more…and more. Not …
For those who don’t know yet, my whole team and me have been working remotely, from 15 months now. That is more than a year, working from our homes, or WFH, as it is called. Today got me thinking – what next? Do we continue this way even after the storm has cleared? Or would …
Well, I finished the nineteenth Vetāla yesterday, and there are six more to go. I hope that you are enjoying these stories.
