11. Sewa | Amrit Chandan | Co-founder, CEO Aceleron Energy

"For me, contemplation is recognising that there are bigger forces in the universe than me, and being wholly reliant on those bigger forces to make it through this world."

Energy is the subject of our discussion today, in both literal, and metaphysical, terms. Here on Earth, we are in the midst of a great energy transition. This is where Amrit Chandan, co-founder and CEO of Aceleron Energy, and his co-founder Carlton, come in. 

Amrit joins me to discuss the ethics of a new energy paradigm and the broader stewardship of the Earth’s resources, entrepreneurship used in service to humanity, picking the right partners, and many more topics of deep import.

The word for me that coalesces around this conversation is sewa. It is a Sanskrit word, which translates to selfless service, a central tenet within the Sikh wisdom tradition, and one that is a core pillar within Amrit’s life, and work.

As for rest, respite and contemplation, Amrit speaks of the importance of family, coffee shops, and cultivating a personal practice of self-accountability.

Without further ado I bring you, Amrit Chandan of Aceleron Energy.
