Dr K Vasuki IAS is a very inspiring figure among the bureaucrats in Kerala. She was noticedher exemplary work during Kerala Floods. She was the Thiruvananthapuram collector at that point. A doctor by training, Vasuki gave up her medical career to join the civil services in 2008. Born in Chennai to an ordinary family, she completed her MBBS from Madras Medical College. She realized that an IAS officer could serve the people more effectively than a doctor and chose to enter the civil service. Initially assigned to the Madhya Pradesh cadre, she moved to the Kerala cadre in 2013 after her husband, Dr S Karthikeyan, also joined the civil services.Vasuki had been serving as the Secretary of General Education before her recent appointment as the Secretary to the Governor. She is the author of the book The School of Life. Success is often measured by money, fame, or social status. Dr. Vasuki challenges this idea completely. In The School of Life, she encourages us to rethink what truly matters in life. She believes that self-awareness, emotional balance, kindness, and accountability are far more important than external achievements. She believes in minimalism and minimalist way of life and that it could help the environment at large.In this interview we talk about the necessity to look inward, cultivate self-awareness, need for growth. She talks about why meditation is so necessary to be introduced as a subject of learning in school. We discuss about Vipassana meditation as well.
