My Kurukshetra in a turbulent world | Reyansh Patodia | TEDxFountainhead School

Описание: What happens when your mind runs at 100 km/h, but your voice is stuck in first gear?

In this moving and powerful talk, 13-year-old author and two-time world record holder Reyansh Rahul Patodia takes us inside the "Silent Mime",the world of a child navigating a severe stammer in a society that values speed over authenticity. Drawing parallels to the ancient battlefield of Kurukshetra, Reyansh redefines struggle not as a disqualification, but as a sacred training ground for leadership.

From the heartbreak of being told "you are too slow" in the classroom to founding the non-profit organization The Open Door, Reyansh shares his vision for a world where emotional safety is a right, not a privilege. He challenges us to stop waiting for "fluency" and start listening for "truth," proving that the bravest thing you can do is let the world hear you exactly as you are. Reyansh Rahul Patodia is a 13-year-old catalyst for resilience and a visionary in digital innovation, beginning his journey as a 2-time world-record-holding author at age 8. Now a Grade 8 student at Fountainhead School, he has transformed his personal Kurukshetra, a childhood struggle with a severe stammer, into a global mission for emotional safety. As the Founder of The Open Door, a non-profit organization, Reyansh is driven by a dream to build the classroom he never had: a sanctuary where every child possesses the sacred, safe space to speak their emotions. A 2-time TEDx speaker and author of 2 influential books, he is a high-level tech innovator who earned a world record for converting a Windows PC to macOS. Reyansh proves that our greatest struggles are not disqualifications, but the very training grounds required to lead boldly and build a world that finally listens. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
