Summary

Karan Bajaj discusses his life in the Indian Himalayas and how very different the “east” is from the “west” in our world. He talks about living your Dharma, keeping community alive in a world that’s continuously connected but more isolated, a little bit of mysticism, and much more.


Karan Bajaj is a novelist and striving Yogi. Born and raised in the Indian Himalayas, he now lives in Brooklyn, New York. He’s also the author of The Yoga of Max’s Discontent.
