Interaction with a social worker and philosopher, Bhaskar Guda


This morning, we were introduced to Bhaskar Guda, a social worker and philosopher. He is initially an architect, but doesn't really practice anymore. Instead, he is very active in the voluntary field and has been working with “Youth for SEVA” for the last past three years. Moreover, he likes to read and think in a philosophic way about what is going on around him, and how people act and think.

It was very interesting for us to be able to interact with him and talk about what we have experienced and observed since our arrival in Bangalore three weeks ago. Indeed, India and Switzerland function very differently in many ways and we tried to understand why these two countries are so different, based on a historic point of view. This helped us to understand the context in which we are working here and to reply to some of our questions.
