Abhaidev is the pen name of Mayank Chandna, author of a dozen books, namely, The Influencer: Speed Must Have a Limit, The Gods Are Not Dead, 13 Minutes Before Midnight, The Meaninglessness of Meaning, etc. After working for a while in an investment bank, he took the plunge and quit that boring job of his to venture into the exciting world of writing, something he always wanted to do.

His penchant for continental philosophy and craze for progressive house and indie music has nettled his simple parents. He is an avid reader and devours classics and science books. Like most people with a DSLR, he loves flaunting his non-existent photography skills on social media platforms.

Abhaidev loves challenging his limits and believes that there is nothing

Anant by Abhaidev
“Hills are where gods reside. Hills are where the doors to divinity open.”
Abhaidev
Anant by Abhaidev
“I believe that controlling the desire to relish tasty food and tolerating hunger is a basic requirement if one wants to tread the path of enlightenment. Hunger is the most primal, most basic urge. The first thing newborns of every species come to know is hunger. It is hunger that drives human beings to do great stuff, and it is the very same hunger that drives them to do the unthinkable.”

Anant by Abhaidev
“I can stay still. I can observe. I can wait.”

Quotes by Abhaidev  (?)

“The search for meaning is as meaningless as the meaning itself.”
Abhaidev, The Meaninglessness of Meaning

“If I have learned something from my life, as well excessive reading is that we all are Sisyphus. And we all realize it, eventually. Some in their thirties, some in their sixties, and some when they are on their deathbeds. And once we realize who we really are, we all ask ourselves one simple question–‘What the hell was that? What the hell was all that?”
Abhaidev, The World's Most Frustrated Man

“I can tell you good news, but it will be false. I can tell you bad news, but it will be true. Make a choice!”
Abhaidev, The Meaninglessness of Meaning

“Some are mature enough that they don’t speak their minds. Some are so mature that they know they are not mature.”
Abhaidev, That Thing About You

“What do you think was the reason this universe sprung all of a sudden into existence from nothing? It was curiosity. What do you think was the reason why time was finally set into motion? It was curiosity. And why did the first single cell life appear on Earth? It was nothing but curiosity. It is curiosity, my dear friend, which is driving this whole universe.”
Abhaidev, That Thing About You

“Even a pawn makes a move, sometimes two steps in the beginning. How small or limited it may be, it can never be overlooked. Remember, it is a pawn and only the pawn which gets promoted once it reaches the other side of the chessboard. If a pawn, saddened by its abilities, stops making any move, it can never evolve into something greater. We have to make moves, my friend, to progress.”
Abhaidev, That Thing About You

“Men and water shouldn’t stay at the same place for long.”
Abhaidev, That Thing About You

“Ninety percent of the people are not happy with their jobs. The remaining ten percent don’t deserve their jobs in the first place.”
Abhaidev, That Thing About You
