About the Author
What Ancient India Knew About the Mind comes from 2022, during the years when over 1,500 books had no platform. Amazon had shut the door. Draft2Digital said they were "a small company for small authors." The writing never stopped — Atharva was 25 and still producing philosophy & ethics work with no clear path to publication. Philosophy is woven through the entire catalog, but these 40 dedicated titles tackle the big questions head-on rather than embedding them in fiction or memoir.
