Mohan Ranga Rao joined me this week on the podcast to share a beautiful conversation about how his life was forever changed by the birth and loss of his daughter, Yogita. He talks about how his life before Yogita's arrival and the moment he knew She was blind at only 4 days old, his life shattered. Mohan began a not just a medical journey but an emotional and existential one. He had to unlearn everything he thought he knew about strength, masculinity, and in the raw, unfiltered love of a Father who could not 'fix' his child. His first book: Inner Trek: A reluctant Pilgrim's Journey to Tibet was born of an unexpected calling. What began as a physical journey - a trek through the Himalayas, became a profound spiritual reckoning. The book is a reflection of that awakening, resonating with readers searching for meaning beyond the material world. His new book: Myopia: A Father's Journey into Love, Loss and Sight Beyond Vision, is not just a story of grief - it is a meditation on love stripped of all conditions, on pain as a force of transformation, on the kind of sight that only comes when the world as you know it disappears. Myopia does not offer easy resolutions or cliches about healing. It is raw, unflinching and honest about what it means to love deeply and lose completely. Mohan founded Amopia - a philosophy and community that helps individuals see suffering not as an enemy, but as a guide. Amopia blends science, spirituality and personal resilience into a framework for growth, offering courses, workshops and a community for those ready to engage with suffering as a path to wisdom.
