Why Now?

Ideas and practices for being human.

The story, practice and questions behind The Daily Sutras.

BeING  human,
now

Long before algorithms competed for our attention, ancient traditions were studying the nature of the mind—attention, desire, attachment, suffering, consciousness—and developing practices for seeing ourselves more clearly.

Today's technologies are embedded deep into our lives, influencing our desires and shaping our thoughts and actions.

Against such extraordinary shifts in the conditions of being human, we're left to ask: what does it mean to be human—and how much say will we have in who we become?

This is a study of what shapes us—and how we might shape ourselves in an age of advanced technological modernity.

About the writer
welcome

I created The Daily Sutras as a digital sanctuary to explore what it means to be human amid the forces of technological modernity. Guided by ancient traditions—most notably the Yoga Sutras—as well as contemporary thought and philosophy, I am interested in how enduring wisdom might be understood and practiced today. The urgency I feel is matched only by my curiosity: What are we becoming—and can consciousness, soul and mind endure what comes next?

I spend my professional life inside many of the questions explored inside this publication. I work in enterprise Data and AI, leading programs that shape how organizations use information, make decisions and adapt to emerging technology. Alongside that work, I am pursuing executive education in artificial intelligence and digital business at MIT Sloan School of Management, while my study of yoga—and training as a yoga teacher—continues to draw me toward older understandings of mind and consciousness. The Daily Sutras grows from living between these worlds: helping to build the technological future while asking what it means to remain fully human within it.

THe condition

Modern life is designed to capture attention and influence desire.

The question

How do we know our own minds—and act from intention rather than impulse?

the practice

How do we know our own minds—and act from intention rather than impulse?

why daily sutras?

Nearly two thousand years ago, the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali attempted to understand the workings of the human mind: attention, perception, attachment, suffering, discipline, freedom.
‍
The circumstances of our lives have changed enormously. The mind, perhaps, less so.
‍
‍The Daily Sutras began as an attempt to take those ideas out of abstraction and into ordinary life.

The Sutras
are a starting
point.
Mind is
the subject.
