Refusal to accept the flow of the world is the root of all misery.

Mythology is a subjective truth. Every culture imagines life a certain way.

Nobody knows why we're alive; so we all create stories based on our imagination of the world; and as a community, we believe in the same story. In India, every person believes his/ her own mythosphere to be real. Indian thought is obsessed with subjectivity; Greek thought with objectivity.

Refusal to accept the flow of the world is the root of all misery.

If you don't have imagination, you stop being human; animals don't have imagination; Alzheimer's is the death of imagination.

I have been doodling since childhood. I have a passion for illustrating but cannot paint or colour for that matter. I illustrate what I am trying to communicate through my writing. My images are like drawings in a science text book.

In Greek mythology, the hero wants to be great, but the very concept does not exist in the Indian vocabulary. Yet it has become the global template. And it's a template that won't fit in India.
