In this episode, Shivam delves into the essence of scientific investigation. He explores two distinct categories of research: fundamental and industrial research. Shivam places significant emphasis on the value of fundamental research, providing an intricate explanation of its characteristics and potential benefits. He underscores the role of fundamental scientific research in India's journey from a developing nation to a developed one by 2047. Additionally, he highlights the relevance of Prime Minister Modi's vision for India, as epitomized by his slogan "Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan, Jai Vigyan." He also underscores the primary goal of The BrainX Project in this episode.

In this episode, Shivam talks about the crucial statement made by Apple's co-founder Steve Wozniak in a 2018 interview. On being asked why Indians don't innovate, he replied by giving the picture of the life of a typical Indian, "study, work hard and you get an MBA, you will have a Mercedes, but where is the creativity?"

Wozniak is raising a serious question here that needs to be addressed. Shivam attempts to dissect the stereotypical subconscious idea of a typical Indian person and attempts to highlight the element that shuns creativity. He also suggests a possible solution to this problem. By comparing the fundamental driving spirits of the two civilizations (the West and India), he attempts to point out a psychological blind spot that we barely notice.
