Bishal Gyawali

The Philosopher

We all die one day. But have we all lived?

Hello everyone, my name is Bishal Gyawali. You may know me as a medical oncologist, but I also like to think of myself as a philosopher. This website is the place for my philosophical thoughts. For my oncology work, refer to my oncology page.

I built this site primarily to post the chapters from my Journey of Success Book. But I have also decided to share other inspirational essays in this website under the Library of Inspiration page, and my spiritual thoughts under the Spiritual Journey page. Check them out. I hope you will find your subscription to this site meaningful. Cheers!

    Although these were taught by Buddha to his disciples on methods of enquiry, this is equally valid for any scientific enquiry as well. Do not simply believe what you hear just because you have heard it for a long time. Do not follow tradition blindly merely because it has been practiced in that way for… Read more

  • Spirituality of Sapiens

    Posting the same blog again because there seem to have been some issues with accessing the paid content in the previous post. In 2023, I read some great books. One of those was Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harrari. Sapiens traces the history of human evolution, but this is not merely a history book, this is… Read more

Sapiens traces the history of human evolution, but this is not merely a history book, this is also a philosophy book and if you think deeply, it is also a spiritual book. Or at least, I interpreted it that… Read more

Did you elevate yourself to the greatest height?

Or stepped back and later had to say “I might”

Were you brave enough to turn on the light?

Or stepped back and said “Let’s endure the night!”
