Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh: Renowned author Kartikeya Vajpai, son-in-law of former Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar, recently discussed his debut novel, The Unbecoming, in the city. Vajpai, who spoke to media persons, highlighted that the essence of all religions is to create spiritual beings, yet spirituality seems to be absent among many people today.
The author stressed that religions were established to foster godly virtues and guide individuals towards becoming better human beings. However, he observed that this objective appears to be unfulfilled. Vajpai emphasized the importance for people to reconnect with their inner selves. The author, whose novel features forewords by the 14th Dalai Lama and Swami Sarvapriyananda, shared insights into the experiences and ideas that influenced The Unbecoming.
He clarified that meaningful transformation does not necessitate escaping from the world or abandoning daily responsibilities. Instead, genuine change begins with an inward journey, reconnecting with a relationship often overlooked - the one with oneself.
