In a globalized world, inspiring stories should flow freely across countries and cultures. The flow has been predominantly from the West to the East, in the form of literature, films and TV shows. Few stories of the East, that tell modern tales of great achievements in grave adversity while capturing lives, values, challenges, and aspirations of other cultures reach all audiences. This one-way traffic presents us with a three-fold challenge. One, many readers are finding it difficult to identify with heroes. Two, we are all missing out on amazing stories that can inspire us. Three, we are not internalizing diversity, while being surrounded by it.The Namaste! Series™ of books feature stories of contemporary social catalysts, people who beat the odds to make our world a better place. They come from different cultures, religions, and traditions. Their incredible stories will suit the courageous that transcend borders and cultures in search of meaningful inspiration.www.theindologist.com

"Controversies in International Health" and "Principles of International Health" are two courses that I have designed and also deliver at Boston University's campus in Geneva Switzerland. These high-paced and intensive programs prepare future policy makers and shapers to deconstruct existing paradigms and identify unique entry points for effecting change on a large scale. Participating universities are Boston University, Duke University, Johns Hopkins University, Cornell University, Brandeis University, Providence College among others. In exchange, I learn from millennials their codes of communication, their world view and their vision for humanity.
