I make a difference wherever I go
I inspire people wherever I go
I lead the change

The session left everyone inspired to live out Gurukul’s values in their daily lives.

Later in the afternoon, alumni were grouped by their professional fields—business, IT, engineering, entrepreneurship, and more—for a Field-Wise Discussion led by another respected Swamiji. This was a platform to:

Share career journeys
Offer mentorship
Build new networks and brotherhood beyond batches

The conversations were enlightening and inspiring, sparking deeper bonds and future collaborations.
