The Yoga Journey

Engineering is about solving problems — it enhances our external comfort. Yoga is about breaking personal limitations — it enhances our inner experience of life.
In the process, you come to realize that the macrocosm and microcosm are just reflections of each other.

How It Began

After a few years of research, I realized that it is not really helping me answer my fundamental quest, 'why are we doing what we are doing?'. In 2021 I decided to take a break from my formal research career for a different project. However, I saw that somethings internal were limiting me from doing what I want to do. So the quest turned towards — how can I break my limitations?. This is where I realized the need to turn inward and look at myself.

This is where Yoga came in – not as fitness, but as a rigorous system of inner science. In 2021, I took my first steps into Yoga through the Inner Engineering program, and something shifted irreversibly.

What I found was not an exercise routine, but a methodology. Yoga offered a first-person laboratory for the very questions neuroscience and AI approach from the outside in.
