"You have the right to perform your duty, but not to the fruits of your actions. Never consider yourself the cause of the results, and never be attached to inaction."— Bhagavad Gita 2.47
Where ancient wisdom meets the architecture of tomorrow

Occasional dispatches on philosophy, technology, and the spaces between.
I build systems that think and write words that question. For over fifteen years, I've architected data platforms at scale — at Meta, VMware, and now through my own venture, Simultaneous — while quietly returning to the same ancient questions that have occupied seekers for millennia: What is the right action? What endures? What matters?
Petabyte-scale data architectures. Privacy-first engineering. Enterprise systems that govern the flow of information across organizations. I've spent my career making sense of complexity — turning chaos into clean, reliable signal.
Vedantic wisdom. The Bhagavad Gita. Viktor Frankl. Alan Watts. I believe the deepest truths about building technology are hidden in the oldest texts — and that the architects of tomorrow need the dharma of yesterday.
"The field of dharma is also the field of action. This blog lives at that intersection."
We're in the middle of an extraordinary shift. AI is rewriting the rules of work, creativity, and meaning. Most of the conversation is about what to build. I'm more interested in why we build — and how we build without losing ourselves in the process.
This space exists to bridge those worlds: the architecture of systems and the architecture of self. Every essay here is an attempt to hold both — the technical and the timeless — in the same breath.
