Mumbai, July 2025 — In a first-of-its-kind initiative combining ancient wisdom with modern wellness, a powerful spiritual seminar led by acclaimed mythologist and filmmaker Eklavya Sakpal was held for BSF officers and Senior Police Inspectors. Organized by Mrs. Soni, CEO of Vidhya Bharti, the session was hailed as a resounding success, offering deep insights into mind, body, and soul.
Eklavya Sakpal is a celebrated mythologist, filmmaker, author, and spiritual speaker known for bridging mythology and mental health with his signature style of transformative storytelling. He pioneered work in decoding ancient Vedic wisdom for modern minds, presented through a seminar enriched with meditative and magnetic storytelling. Drawing from epics like the Mahabharata, Ramayana, and the Upanishads, he seamlessly blended mythological narratives with real-life challenges faced by those in the forces. He explored themes such as:
- Duty versus Dharma: Reflecting on Arjuna’s moral dilemma and how it parallels the daily decisions of officers in leadership and crisis.
- Inner Silence in Outer Chaos: Drawing from tales of sages and warriors who mastered self-awareness amidst battlefields.
- Identity beyond Role: Encouraging participants to look deeper into their soul, beyond the uniform and title.
What made the seminar truly powerful was its holistic approach to mind, body, and soul.
- Mind: Through reflective storytelling and guided introspection, officers experienced clarity, calmness, and a new perspective on their roles not just professionally but also personally. Many described the seminar as “mentally liberating” and “emotionally grounding.”
- Body: Eklavya introduced breathing techniques and posture awareness rooted in yogic practices, aimed at reducing fatigue and increasing body-mind alignment. This was especially valuable for those on long deployments or in high-stress environments.
- Soul: The most profound aspect of the session was spiritual introspection. Officers were encouraged to reflect on their life journey through the lens of the hero’s path found in our mythological stories. This soul-centric narrative helped participants rediscover purpose and inner strength.
The auditorium of Vidhya Bharti was filled with over 100 attendees, including BSF officers, senior police inspectors, and dignitaries from the authority. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive.
“This was not just a session; it was a mirror to the self. Eklavya ji made mythology feel like a personal guide to life,” said a senior police inspector.
“It’s rare to experience something that touches your mind, body, and soul in such a short time. I walk out clearer and lighter,” added a BSF officer.
This event marked a progressive step in integrating spiritual wellness into the professional lives of security personnel, an often-overlooked but deeply needed intervention. With Eklavya Sakpal’s insightful facilitation and Mrs. Soni’s vision, this session did not just uplift those present. It planted seeds of resilience, reflection, and inner harmony.
Eklavya Sakpal, known for making mythology accessible and relevant to contemporary challenges, expressed gratitude for the opportunity.
“Mythology is not just about history; it’s about understanding the self through timeless symbols. I’m glad Vidhya Bharti and Mrs. Soni provided this space for the reflection,” he said.
With this event setting a new benchmark in wellness-oriented programming, Eklavya Sakpal demonstrated how ancient wisdom can be a compass in modern life. For future seminars and initiatives by Eklavya Sakpal, stay connected with him on social networking platforms:
