Who Am I: Subhash Chandra show comes back in a new avatar
MUMBAI: After a successful initial run, one of the India’s popular motivational youth shows, Dr. Subhash Chandra (DSC) Show is returning with a fresh look and format.
Evolving from a straight-forward chat show, the new episodes will highlight inspirational stories of people from different backgrounds. While it was Chandra who vehemently tried to motivate and change many lives in the earlier format, going ahead the DSC Show will introduce audiences to the stories of India’s unsung heroes who overcame hurdles in their lives through courage and determination.
The first episode (on the ground) was held on 18 April at Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Management, Rohini, in New Delhi during which MP, Rajya Sabha and chairman, Essel Group and ZEE Chandra shared his insights on the topic ‘Who Am I?”. The special guests for this episode were Earth Saviours Foundation founder Ravi Kalra and popularly known as the ‘No Honking Man of India’ and Saachi Roy,India’s youngest woman to have been selected for an expedition to Mount Everest by the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute and also the first from the country to reach Mount Elbrus, Europe’s highest peak.
Sharing his views on the topic ‘Who Am I?’, Chandra said, “As we journey through life, we tend to give ourselves different identities such as son, daughter, student or teacher. But we are a son or daughter because we have parents, students because we are studying in a school or college, and teachers because we are imparting knowledge to others. Thus everything that we believe in dependent on something else and is not our true identity. The only thing which is independent of everything else is our ‘Inner Consciousness’ which is the sensation of being alive and aware.”
Elaborating further, Chandra said, “While our thoughts, emotions and environment change, this Inner Consciousness never changes. By teaching ourselves to be aware of and immersed in this consciousness, we can calm our mind and slow our flow of thoughts, thus utilizing its power more effectively. As we harness this power, we will also experience freedom from anxiety and worry, inner strength, peace of mind and happiness.”
