In this episode of My Yatra, Dr. Maneesha Asundi shifts the spotlight from our spiritual starting point to our soul’s ultimate destination. Through the ancient Hindu framework of Purushartha — Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha — she offers a roadmap to living with joy, harmony, and purpose.

Blending Vedic philosophy with personal stories of unexpected pivots, Dr. Maneesha reveals how our setbacks often carry divine redirection. Whether it was missing a medical school seat by one point or being laid off at the peak of stability, each moment led her closer to her dharma — teaching, guiding, and leading with love.

This episode is a gentle reminder that your journey is not random. It’s sacred. You are already on the path — even if the scenery isn't what you expected.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why “Who am I?” and “What am I doing here?” are the foundational questions of your yatra
• How the four Purusharthas frame a fulfilling and aligned human life
• Why Dharma and Moksha serve as guardrails for the soul’s river
• How trusting the divine plan transforms failure into fuel for growth
• Why life’s curveballs are invitations to realignment, not punishment
• How redefining success can lead to a more joyful and value-aligned life
• How personal Dharma adapts across different roles — at work, at home, and within

Sanskrit Wisdom Spotlight:

• Purushartha – The four goals of life: Dharma (righteousness), Artha (material pursuit), Kama (desire), Moksha (liberation)
• Jiva – The individual soul embodied in human form
• Vastu, Vyakti, Paristhiti – Objects, people, and circumstances; often mistaken as sources of true happiness
