Reflections
from participants

Heartfelt and thoughtful insights from individuals inspired by their experience with Leela Life

Hari in conversation with Jean-Marc Papin, SVP Media Technologies and Sustainability at Horizon Media, New York City

I found Hari to be deeply insightful and disarmingly relatable. As he said, once you hear it, you can’t un-hear it. Some of it clicked immediately, some of it continues to unfold in thought. I’ve been reflecting on several of the ideas he shared — they’ve stayed with me.

It was such a pleasure to attend the session this week! I took some time to reflect and simply "be" with all of the wonderful information shared. I have concluded, and verified my initial visceral response to the evening, that the concept of Leela Life is something the world needs. Definitely, perhaps desperately, decidedly immediately.

Leadership flourishes when our innate qualities align with our actions, as this inner harmony drives purpose and resilience, irrespective of external circumstances. The Indic wellbeing approach from Leela Life has profoundly impacted my personal life and how I engage with others, strengthening business relationships and fostering greater engagement across the organization

Jean-Marc Papin
SVP at Horizon Media, New York

I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation and found it deeply enriching. I am truly excited about the vision for Leela Life and the potential it holds for enhancing overall well-being, especially in the West. Your journey and insights were inspiring, and I especially appreciated learning about the different facets of Indic Wellbeing Knowledge. I left last night's event armed with so much more information than when I walked in.

Having worked with many yoga and meditation instructors, what particularly resonated with me was the distinction you made between knowledge and culture. So many people fail to make that distinction and the result is to severely limit the appeal of the knowledge they're offering. I believe you have a unique and powerful product.

Saul Finkelstein
Partner, New York City Law Firm

To be honest, I was not exactly sure what to expect heading into the evening but cannot express how thankful I am to have had the experience. I truly believe in the Leela Life mission and think that the knowledge you have gathered can have a profound impact on many individuals across the globe.

It was a thoroughly insightful discussion. Thank you for that, Hari. I particularly liked your closing message, "The knowledge doesn't need validation."
