Summary

There is an old Buddhist quote that says, "Learning to unlearn is the highest form of learning."I, Chetan Narang, firmly stand by that quote as I introduce you to my podcast, The Unlearning Playground. More often than not, the biggest blocker standing between us and the truth is our idea that we already have it. Getting to the truth then, is more an act of unlearning falsities rather than learning anything new. This podcast is an attempt from my side to collate a whole bunch of things that one has to unlearn before starting to call oneself a mature adult in the real sense of the term. On the surface, this is a philosophy and spirituality podcast.At its root, it is an everyday life podcast and my aim is to bridge the gap between our everyday lives and philosophy. And the tools I use for creating this bridge is modern scientific understanding of the world as well as ancient perennial wisdom majorly inspired from eastern spiritual traditions such as Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta, Hinduism, etc.This episode is a brief introduction to what The Unlearning Playground is all about and what to expect from the content you're about to consume.

Episode Description

There is an old Buddhist quote that says, "Learning to unlearn is the highest form of learning."

I, Chetan Narang, firmly stand by that quote as I introduce you to my podcast, The Unlearning Playground.

More often than not, the biggest blocker standing between us and the truth is our idea that we already have it. Getting to the truth then, is more an act of unlearning falsities rather than learning anything new. This podcast is an attempt from my side to collate a whole bunch of things that one has to unlearn before starting to call oneself a mature adult in the real sense of the term.

On the surface, this is a philosophy and spirituality podcast.

At its root, it is an everyday life podcast and my aim is to bridge the gap between our everyday lives and philosophy. And the tools I use for creating this bridge is modern scientific understanding of the world as well as ancient perennial wisdom majorly inspired from eastern spiritual traditions such as Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta, Hinduism, etc.

This episode is a brief introduction to what The Unlearning Playground is all about and what to expect from the content you're about to consume.

Dive right in.
