Uma Gupta is a whole person. She is a worldly person, working with leaders in large organizations, advising them on a variety of topics in global leadership. She is also a spiritual teacher, fiercely devoted to to her inner life. Our telephone-conducted podcast conversation with Uma is about three treasures of Hinduism. I asked her what insights Hinduism has brought to the world that every human being, regardless of their religion, can learn from and use to live a more impactful and fulfilling life. Enjoy! Note: This conversation is one of our early recordings, and the sound quality isn’t as high as our other interviews, but our guest Uma Gupta's perspective is so valuable that we decided it was important to share it anyway. We hope you’ll agree.
