A doctor does more than prescribe medicine—he offers healing through touch, wisdom through words, and hope through actions. In this special episode, we journey into the extraordinary life of Padma Shri Dr. Radhe Shyam Pareek, a pioneer who not only elevated homeopathy to global recognition but also redefined the very meaning of service in medicine.

From a modest upbringing in Agra to treating over 2.3 million patients across the world, Dr. Pareek’s story is one of deep devotion, tireless service, and quiet revolution. He trained thousands of doctors, championed community healthcare in rural India, founded the Sevakunj Mission Hospital, and brought the light of Indian culture and spirituality to countless lives through Satsang Sudha.

Art is not just a play of colors—it's a conversation across time, a revival of tradition, and sometimes, a quiet revolution. In this episode, we bring you the story of a man who didn’t just create art, but resurrected a dying tradition and gave it new meaning.

Padma Shri Ashok Kumar Biswas, a visionary artist from the heartland of Bihar, breathed life back into the ancient Tikuli art—a craft rooted in the Mauryan era, once fading into obscurity. With a brush in his hand and purpose in his heart, he turned delicate glass into storytelling canvases.

But his impact didn’t stop at the canvas. He trained over 8,000 women, empowering them to become financially independent through this once-forgotten art. From local workshops to international exhibitions, his work became a symbol of India’s cultural resilience.

What drives a person to dedicate their entire life to those abandoned by society? For Sangthankima, the answer lay in a simple yet profound belief—no one deserves to be forgotten.

From the hills of Mizoram, where poverty and struggle were everyday realities, he emerged as a guiding light. With barely a fifth-grade education and no resources, he started small—sharing his meager earnings to feed the hungry and shelter the homeless. What began as an act of kindness soon grew into the Thutak Nunpuitu Team (TNT), Northeast India’s largest rehabilitation network, offering refuge to orphans, the mentally ill, and those battling addiction.

In this episode, we explore the incredible journey of a man who turned compassion into action, giving thousands a second chance at life. From sleeping on the streets to receiving the Padma Shri, Sangthankima’s story is one of resilience, faith, and the unbreakable spirit of service.
