In this episode, I meet Ajay, a middle-aged man from Himachal Pradesh whose life was shaped by his family's religious and superstitious upbringing. However, everything changed when he discovered Navayana Buddhism, a modern movement rooted in social justice and equality.

As he delved into the teachings of Dr Ambedkar he began questioning the rituals he had ignorantly followed, finding solace and resonance in the principles of Navayana Buddhism. The episode dives into the multifaceted aspects of Ajay's conversion, exploring the social, political, and psychological aspects of his decision.
