Shashi Tharoor and Gaur Gopal Das on healing and finding meaning in today's world

[@JobyJacob1234]

When two wonderful brains meet together and they themselves wonder at each other, what more wonderful things can we expect from a you tube video....great..

[@kksnair6841]

Sashi T is wonderful in his political misbehaviiur on ethics. Dont compare such politicians with gurus....politicians donot have aathmiyatha or ethics.. Talking english well does not mean that he is great.. Nothing dfid for the country

Gaur Gopal Das gives a nice person vibe, I liked listening to him. Although Shashi Tharoor also spoke for an equal amount of time, somehow, he didn't give me the same level of positive feelings. Mostly he gives the impression of being unnecessarily elite and somewhat selfish. Maybe Shashi Tharoor is good for giving wordy lectures, making debates, winning literary awards, role model for an aspiring English teacher, but I'd never approach him to talk about mental healing or life's meaning.

[@krishnagiridhar3692]

Why such a negative comment?

[@nondajeevi5036]

@@krishnagiridhar3692 I just said what I felt. Questions like mental health and life's meaning are deeply personal, you may resonate with some people's manner of speaking, approaches, other opinions & writings, etc. and not others. Also, the speaker's own public personality and private life are also important, and Shashi Tharoor is not exactly a non-controversial figure....

[@SJ-yg1bh]

​@nondajeevi5036 what is life's meaning?

[@nondajeevi5036]

@@SJ-yg1bh I guess I'm still searching myself, thats why I listen to gurus. As explained by Gaur Gopal, "making an difference" and "6 types of courage" are the best answer you'll get. In my own personal experience, life has many ups/downs and twists/turns. It doesn't have a single meaning and keeps changing depending on time and situation. If I'm doing very well, then life seems beautiful & full of opportunity and at such times I'd like to help others, donate money, etc. If I'm in a very difficult situation (about to lose my job, my credibility, my money or property), then life doesn't seem worth continuing and at such time, I just want to survive. On the other hand, if nothing is happening or moving, then life seems to lose meaning and at such time I try to find some challenging problem, creative activity or innovative work engagement. Doing such work itself gives me a boost, a great joy and I find meaning in that work itself. And so on.... However, doing good+making a difference, will I think generally give the biggest meaning in life. In Hinduism, they speak of 'purushartha' - the four goals of life. Kama and Artha are for material happiness but Dharma and Moksha which are for spiritual happiness should be the really important goals, which can help man to understand life's meaning and lead a peaceful, fulfilled life. Purushartha is a very good model for holistic living.

[@makeenglisheasy3390]

To watch and listen to the conversation of such level is something beyond my imagination. I relished every bit of it. I am an aspiring english learner and always admire Mr. Shashi Tharoor for all his knowledge about English Literature and how he delivers speeches. To hear him speaking always inspire me to learn more. To be honest i can hear him speaking all the long and i am that obsessed. Mr. Gaur Gopal Das, on the other hand, is my all time favourite. Every time i feel stuck in life not knowing what to do i binge watch his motivational speeches. Because they are loaded with invaluable life lessons along with a tint of humour. You laugh and learn simultaneously when you hear Mr. Gaur Gopal Das delivering his speeches. All in all i loved the conversation immensely and really looking forward to watching more of their collaborations in future.

[@ch.narasimharao2638]

Self realization is the consequence of this conversation I personally feel if I had this lesson earlier my life would have been different thanks to education and technology and cell phone decades of my life I spent would have been fruitful even now I reap a rich harvest of purposeful living of course I believe if one is educated the whole mankind gets the benefit s of education and te😢 God bless my countrymen and mankind at large with a happy purposeful living ohm satchitananda santi santi santi hi

[@ch.narasimharao2638]

I always believe the joy of living is beyond to live itself is ecstasy the joy of breathing and becoming breath is self realization no negative feelings live for ever fear disappear s what more is required except making others happy God bless you

[@bkg47]

Really? Watch KZbin videos how many well educated Indians who are half the age of Shashi Tharoor exposed inaccuracies in his English literature. His love for Mugal rulers who raped and murdered so many shows either his mental state or his politics since he belongs to a minority appeasing political party.

[@jayasreesaradamma3654]

Gaur Gopal Das.... Profound gratitude and kodi kodi Pranam🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@venkateshnatarajan479]

Huge difference in the quality of talk by Shashi Tharoor and Gopal Das Gaur. I found Gopal Gaur's talk more matured, highly intellectual and impactful. Shashi came out only bragging about what he had done and so on. So there is huge difference in class between the two speakers.

One perspective is that since life is temporary, it’s an invitation to live fully, be kind, help others, and embrace each moment. Some people feel that our purpose is not necessarily predefined but something we shape through choices, values, and the legacy we leave.
