About the Company
myNachiketa Foundation is inspired by Nachiketa, a character in the Upanishads, who asks
philosophical questions to Yama in his childhood. We seek to bring the philosophical ideas and
concepts in Hinduism to children in creative ways. We are designing innovative products
including books, games, workshops, etc. to bring this knowledge to kids. Our method is to
encourage kids to question and think of various different ways of arriving at answers, rather
than developing a regimented thought process. Our goal is to reach every kid globally with this
knowledge, help them critically reason and develop their own understanding based on exposure
to various schools of Indian philosophy.
