What if some of your most confident beliefs — about yourself, your child, your faith, or your future — were wrong?

In this episode of Roots and Wings, Siva Bala Narayanan explores one of the most transformative mindset shifts of all:
“You could be wrong.”

Drawing from personal experience, science (Dunning-Kruger effect, cognitive biases), metaphor (Flatland), and ancient Indian wisdom (Rig Veda, Bhagavad Gita, Thirukkural), this episode invites you to rethink what you think you know.

You’ll learn:

• Why ego and social pressure make it hard to change your mind
• How science and spirituality both value uncertainty
• The 70–30 Rule — a practical method to stay curious and open
• Why saying “I could be wrong” isn’t weakness — it’s wisdom

Whether you’re exploring your swadharma, trying to grow as a leader or parent, or simply reflecting on your worldview, this episode will challenge and encourage you to think again.

What does it mean to grow — as a person, as a nation, and as a world? In this flagship episode of Roots and Wings, host Siva Bala Narayanan shares his personal journey across continents and cultures, and makes the case for why India@2047 isn’t just a government plan — it’s a personal invitation.

Through reflections on identity, growth, and responsibility, we explore:

• What true growth means beyond GDP and job titles
• The defeatist voices that hold India back — and how to challenge them
• Ancient wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita, including the Ashvattha tree metaphor
• The transformative concepts of Swadharma (your path) and Superpower (your unique gift)
• Why mindset change is the essential first step before discovery or action
• And how ordinary individuals — including homemakers, students, elders, and entrepreneurs — can shape India’s future

Whether you’re based in Mumbai, Manchester or Minnesota, this episode is your invitation to reflect, rediscover, and grow — with both roots and wings.
