Imagine all the stories rivers could tell us about the past, present and future! Rivers were there when humans wanted to grow food. They were there when humans started to build cities. They are still here, providing water, food and livelihoods. But they are also being treated like rubbish bins. Rivers know how to take care of us, but if we want a future with them, maybe it is time for humans to take care of our precious water bodies.

This is the real story of Sheker Goud, the first triple amputee to climb Mount Elbrus (Russia) and Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest peak of the African subcontinent. An alumini of the Vivekanand Institute of Human excellence, he derives his strength from the teachings of Swami Vivekananda.  This story is a brilliant testimony to how one can bounce back even against all odds.
