You Are Just a Version of Your Original
Sandeep Chavan
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
In You Are Just a Version of Your Original, author Sandeep Chavan embarks on a journey to illuminate the intricate relationship between our evolving selves and the essence we carry within. This book seeks to address a timeless question: who are we beneath the layers of versions we adopt throughout our lives? With a background in engineering and teaching, Chavan brings a unique perspective that fuses philosophy, psychology, and human nature to explore what it means to “version” ourselves as we grow.
The book presents the idea that each of us, like evolving technology, embodies numerous versions that form over time in response to experiences, relationships, and the changing world. Yet, while technology often upgrades to reach an ideal functionality, humans are on a different path—a cyclical journey of transformation, adaptation, and rediscovery, guided by an original self that lies within our subconscious.
As humanity advances, author makes the intriguing parallel between our own development and technological growth, particularly with artificial intelligence. Technology, he suggests, is a reflection of our ingenuity and adaptability but remains a tool in our hands, never a replacement for the human experience. This book reminds readers that true growth lies not in “perfecting” oneself but in moving fluidly between change and reconnection with our core essence.
At the heart of the book, author encourages readers to adopt practices like self-reflection, mindfulness, and introspection as tools to “reset.” Through these resets, we can temporarily strip away the accumulated layers, discover aspects of ourselves that may be dormant, and come closer to understanding our purpose. By doing so, we do not regress; instead, we access a state of genuine presence that illuminates our path forward.
