Aakriti Bansal has faced the same inner battles Arjuna did millennia ago, caught between ambition, pressure and uncertainty in a rapidly changing world. Standing at a personal crossroads in 2018 proved to be a turning point, when she discovered the transformative power of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita. What began as personal solace soon became a deeper calling, and inspired this book that sees the light of day five years later.

With an MBA from IMT Ghaziabad with a background in marketing, Aakriti has worked with top brands like L’Oréal, Godrej and Noise. Yet beyond boardrooms and brand strategy, she sought something more enduring—a way to make sense of life’s deeper questions. Her exploration led her to study the Gita alongside yogis, scholars and spiritual teachers, uncovering its relevance as a practical guide for modern living.

Today, she runs her own business and leads the Sevam Foundation, an NGO focused on equitable access to education and resources. She also shares her insights with a community of over 60K followers on LinkedIn.
