In this episode of "The Syllabus of Life", we have Devdutt Pattanaik Sir in conversation with Ex IRS Ravi Kapoor.Devdutt Pattanaik Sir is one of India's foremost mythologists, authors, and speakers — having written over 50 books and 1000+ articles decoding the relevance of Indian mythology in modern life, leadership, business, and personal growth. A trained medical doctor who walked away from his career to translate ancient Indian wisdom for the modern reader, he has spent decades pulling stories from the Ramayana, Mahabharata, Vedas, and Puranas into frameworks that everyday Indians can actually use. His work has reshaped how an entire generation reads Hindu thought — not as ritual, but as living philosophy.In a country chasing more and more, where greed has been rebranded as "ambition" and contentment is treated like a dirty word, this conversation goes deep into the texts we've forgotten how to read — and the wisdom we desperately need.
