Throughout the course of human progress, few fields have influenced the world as deeply and as paradoxically as economics. Its theories are embedded in every nation's policy, every corporation's strategy, and every individual's dreams. Yet, with all its graphs and models, economics seems unable to answer the most fundamental questions of our time: ¿ Why does inequality persist despite economic growth? ¿ Why do wars thrive while peace is preached? ¿ Why are prosperous societies riddled with mental unrest, ecological degradation, and moral decay? It was in pursuit of these questions that this...
Throughout the course of human progress, few fields have influenced the world as deeply and as paradoxically as economics. Its theories are embedded in every nation's policy, every corporation's strategy, and every individual's dreams. Yet, with all its graphs and models, economics seems unable to answer the most fundamental questions of our time: ¿ Why does inequality persist despite economic growth? ¿ Why do wars thrive while peace is preached? ¿ Why are prosperous societies riddled with mental unrest, ecological degradation, and moral decay? It was in pursuit of these questions that this book was born. What followed was not a straight answer, but a conversation. A fictional dialogue between a curious student and a professor who speaks in both GDP and Gita, spreadsheets and shlokas. Vedantonomics is not merely a play of words, it is a revolution in thinking. It is the confluence of two mighty rivers: the empirical sharpness of economics and the eternal depth of Vedanta. While one studies the mechanics of human choices, the other reveals the wisdom behind them. While one seeks to maximize utility, the other strives for Moksha (Liberation). This book unfolds as a dialogue between two characters, Bharat, an inquisitive economics student frustrated with the limitations of modern theories, and Professor Madhav, a well-known economist and scholar of Vedic philosophy. Through a series of vivid, humorous, and profound conversations, they explore everything from the illusion of rationality to the futility of GDP worship, from Keynes and Krugman to Krishna and Kapila. Inspired by the timeless mentor-student spirit of the Bhagavad Gita, you may find echoes of Krishna in Professor Madhav's calm brilliance, and perhaps a shadow of Arjuna in Bharat's restless quest. Each chapter ends with sharp comparisons between modern economic theories and their Vedic counterparts, shlokas with explanations, realworld economic failures, and policy ideas based on Dharma. The goal is not to replace economics but to elevate it, from a science of numbers to a philosophy of life. Vedantonomics is an exploration, not a conclusion. It is my humble attempt to place the soul back into economics, not by rejecting modernity, but by realigning it with ancient wisdom. Through eleven thematic chapters, I've tried to spark a conversation between two seemingly distant worlds: the evolving graphs of global economics and the eternal truths of Sanatana Dharma. While this book draws from real philosophies and theories, it remains a work of fiction. The characters, settings, and dialogues are intentionally crafted for narrative expression. It is not meant to critique or diminish any economic school, Vedic tradition, ideology, community, gender, or nation. Rather, it is a humble and exploratory effort to bridge the world of modern economic thought with the timeless wisdom of Sanatana Dharma. If any part of this book unintentionally hurts anyone's sentiments or emotions, I sincerely apologise. My only intention is to invite reflection, not reaction. May this book serve as a small step toward a more conscious economy, and a more compassionate world. As the world hurtles toward greater complexity, it is time we rediscover the simplicity of truth. This is not just a book. It is a conversation we must have. Welcome to Vedantonomics.
