Niraj Someshwar

About the Author

Raised in a moderately religious family in Mumbai, the author grew up immersed in stories and traditions that introduced Hindu values and the timeless themes of good and evil. After moving to the United States, he rediscovered these teachings through books and community experiences, which deepened his appreciation for Indian spiritual wisdom.

An IT professional by training, he completed his MBA at NYU Stern and is now a business leader in the financial services and insurance industry. When his son was young, the author became actively involved in exploring religion and spirituality, helping children in community-led programs understand Hindu ideas in a simple, relatable way.

Now an empty nester, he is motivated to give back by writing books that make Hindu philosophy accessible to children. Through his work, he hopes to help young readers develop ethical thinking, resilience, and self-awareness by connecting ancient wisdom to everyday life.
