A seasoned businessman and philanthropist, he has traveled to over thirty countries, seeking the beauty of nature and the growth found on challenging trails.His award-winning debut, "Inner Trek: A Reluctant Pilgrim in the Himalayas," chronicles his transformative trek around Mount Kailash, a sacred Tibetan Mountain. His latest book, "Myopia," is a deeply personal memoir inspired by his daughter Yogita, whose brief life-marked by blindness and then cancer-profoundly shaped his understanding of love, resilience, and the meaning of suffering.In addition to writing, Mohan enjoys tennis, hiking, and exploring subjects ranging from quantum physics to Vedanta. Through his work, he inspires others to embrace life's challenges as opportunities for growth and transformation.
