Prachi Garg Launches "Wisdom from Dashavtar" at Om Book Shop: A Modern Take on Ancient Evolutionary Logic

VMPL
Gurugram (Haryana) [India], February 9: Bestselling author and technology leader Prachi Garg officially launched her new book, "Wisdom from Dashavtar," at Om Book Shop in Gurugram. Published by Om Books International, the book marks a shift in how traditional Indian narratives are consumed, moving them from the realm of folklore into the world of practical self-help and management strategy.
The launch event was centered around a grand panel discussion led by Suhail Mathur, founder of The Book Bakers literary agency. Joining him were guest panelists Alpana Das, Meenakshi Singh, and Rrashima Verma. The conversation focused on the book's core premise: that the ten avatars of Vishnu are not just religious stories, but a sophisticated map of human evolution and psychological growth.
A New Framework for Leadership
In "Wisdom from Dashavtar," Prachi Garg applies her experience as a startup founder and corporate trainer to analyze the Dashavtar. She explains how the progression from aquatic life (Matsya) to a sophisticated social leader (Rama) mirrors both Darwin's biological evolution and the growth stages of a modern career.
"I wanted to decode why these stories have survived for thousands of years," Prachi Garg stated during the panel. "When you look past the miracles, you find very specific lessons on crisis management, resilience, and strategic diplomacy. This book is about making that ancient 'intelligence' accessible to a professional audience that needs real-world solutions."
