About me
Hi, I’m Bhavneesh.
I’m obsessed with philosophical ideas, I enjoy reading philosophers and thinkers like Nietzsche, Krishnamurti, Osho, Taoism, existentialism and various abstract philosophical ideas that may help in deriving meaning in life or dealing with the various challenges that can help improve our lives on a day-to-day basis.
I don’t believe in half-truths or comfortable lies. I think most people live on autopilot, following philosophies and systems without ever questioning them. My goal with writing is to push back on that, to think clearly about what’s actually true, and to call out conformism wherever it hides, and challenge conventional wisdom that can be harmful if believed blindly.
I’m still figuring most of this out. But I’d rather think hard about hard questions than accept easy answers.
