This episode explores the timeless question — What truly sustains human life? Through Leo Tolstoy’s What Men Live By and the Malayalam film Advocate Mukunthan Unni, we contrast spiritual compassion with material ambition. Tolstoy’s humble shoemaker learns divine love through suffering, while Mukunthan Unni’s lawyer chases success through manipulation. Together, they reveal how the human spirit wrestles between conscience and desire.
