  • EP 12 Why This Englishman Teaches Sanskrit

    This is the story of David Stollar.

    David lives in London and it has always been his home. He dropped out of A levels, and yet defied the odds to become a teacher… and then something even rarer: the Englishman who helped shape how Sanskrit is taught in the UK, writing course books, and contributing to the GCSE syllabus. David has never set foot in India. And still, Sanskrit became his unexpected connection to something ancient, beautiful, and profoundly human. There was a time when David fell into deep depression and sometimes felt suicidal. What helped him hold on and slowly rebuild was study, discipline, and the guiding light of his life: the Bhagavad Gita.

    David's captivating journey unfolds in India: A Story in the Making. It’s a story that reminds us geographies don’t define destinies. Meaning can be found. Purpose can return. And even in the most modern world, an ancient language can still change a life. If you’re looking for quiet inspiration, this episode is for you.

  • EP 11 India in Spain

    Strolling on the beautiful, stone-engraved streets of Marbella in Southern Spain, I never imagined I'd discover so much of India. It all began with the revelation that Flamenco, the eloquently powerful dance from Andalusia, Spain, has a surprising link to India. 

    This discovery led me to Asami, a single mom of two and an incredible Flamenco dancer.
    As I delved into the Flamenco-India connection with Asami, I was inspired by her journey – a Japanese woman teaching and performing Flamenco in Marbella. Sometimes, the place of birth doesn't ensure a feeling of belonging. 

    My quest continued with Pedro Gonzales, a Flamenco teacher at Aloha College in Malaga, Spain. Watching his group perform, the unmistakable influence of Indian dance forms in Flamenco became apparent. Flamenco runs in Pedro's family. Despite his many pursuits, it's through Flamenco that he feels he gets his "Soul Salary."

    This India connection in Spain didn't stop at Flamenco. While wandering these charming streets of Marbella, I met a few more fascinating individuals like Emanuela and Simon, each with unique connections to India. 

    Emanuela sources her clothes from the capital of India, New Delhi, and designs them in Italian style, reflecting her origins. She sells these outfits in Marbella. 

    Simon, on the other hand, travels three times a year to buy furniture directly from artisans in Rajasthan, India. His shop sits at the top of the posh Puerto Banus area of Marbella, overlooking the mountains and surrounded by restaurants.

    If human spirit and stories intrigue you, this is the episode for you. Come, listen in and unravel the enchanting tales of Marbella's streets, where the echoes of India intertwine with the rhythms of Flamenco.

  • EP 9 Ayodhya to Ayodhya Ji!

    To belong, be connected to roots, and conserve one's culture while passing it on to the next generation are themes that constantly recur in the lives of Indians living abroad. Festivals, apart from being occasions, also provide an opportunity to connect their children born in a different culture and environment to their roots.

    The building of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya encompasses all of the above and more. We spoke to a group of professional first-generation Indians living in the UK about how and why this is important for them, and how they are involving their children in this process. Additionally, we explore the option of going back to India in the current context.

    Please tune in to look at Ayodhya from an NRI’s lens. Its curious understanding of how Ayodhya is becoming Ayodhya ji !
