Dr. Saurish Hegde, a public health specialist with four years of experience, has always been intrigued by how external factors shape human decisions, particularly mental well-being. He believes that while people are aware of these influences, they often recognize their impact only in hindsight.
For instance, he explains that the thrill of riding a motorcycle at high speeds without a helmet may provide a temporary rush, but making it a habit significantly increases the risk of severe accidents. Similarly, many daily decisions are made without considering their long-term consequences, especially when it comes to mental health.
In today’s digital era, where short videos and quick social media updates dominate information consumption, Dr. Hegde suggests a more reflective and immersive approach—books. He encourages individuals to engage with deeper forms of content that allow for introspection and critical thinking. His book, Creature of Delusion, is a product of such a process. Written during a vulnerable and transitional phase of his life, it delves into the origins of thoughts, the activities influencing them, and the power of conscious decision-making. Through this book, he aims to help readers take greater control of their lives and understand the lasting impact of their choices.
According to Dr. Hegde, every choice carries consequences. Whether one chooses recklessness or responsibility, sustainability or short-term gain, it is essential to act with awareness and understanding.
