Archana Chowdhury was born in the state of Maharashtra, India to parents who originally belonged to East Bengal (now Bangladesh). Legacy of academic excellence runs in the families of both her parents. She had brilliant academic career but was an unwilling entry to the medical curriculum. Obedience, ideology and discipline were genetically ingrained traits hence there was no revolt against medical education, however reluctant the endeavour might have been. She completed M.B.B.S. and M.D. (Internal Medicine) with excellent academic standing and did Masters in Medical Research Methodology from McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada. Committed to serve fellow human beings and teach students, she joined Maharashtra Medical Education & Research Service. With vast experience of observing and treating patients from all strata of society, more so the socially marginalized, she persistently evolves her being on yogic principles which are at once transcendental, universal and personal. She regards herself as an ever enthusiastic student, learning from the book of life and existence. Writing is not an endeavour but an expression of realisation, contemplation and meditation for her. With psyche of a Bengali, spatial orientation, education in Maharashtra, widening of mental horizon by travelling to the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, Asia and blessings from Sri Aurobindo Ashram in Ponchicherry, she consider herself owner of a blessed life.
