About


Two89 is a place for CLARITY, not generic opinions dressed up as universal truth, not tips or advice that sound good on a slide but fall apart against your actual life.

This is for people with technical minds – engineers, developers, analysts, or anyone wired to trust logic over feeling because a mind that trusts a principle before testing it is especially good at doing the same thing with beliefs about emotion – accepting an idea about love, fear, or attachment as understanding, without ever checking if it holds up against real, lived experience.

Two89 doesn’t ask you to abandon that logic to find clarity. It uses it to take apart the specific belief that’s been standing in your way. The goal is not to make you more knowledgeable about facts. It’s to make you more SELF-AWARE.





Hi, I’m Khavi Darpan. I’m a Guide.

Not a guru, not someone selling a system. A guide, in the plainest sense: someone who can show you the path to clarity, but who is never going to walk it for you.

I did my B.Tech. in Software Engineering from Delhi Technological University, then spent five years as a Software Developer at D.E. Shaw & Co. That world taught me to trust logic completely … until I noticed I was applying that same trust to beliefs about my own emotions, without ever having tested them. That gap is what pulled me toward my MA in Clinical Psychology, something I’d always had a knack for.

I now bring both lenses together – the discipline of an engineer, aimed at the one place engineering alone can’t finish the job. In today’s flood of information, most advice tells you how to be different without ever showing you why some part of you resists it. I write about that “why,” using the kind of rigor a technical mind already trusts, because I’ve found that most of us don’t need another tip – we need to see clearly enough to find our own way through.

If that’s something you’re looking for, this is a good place to start.

Book In A Bowl – Exposing Modern Myths of Reading

The easiest way to gain new experience and new knowledge is by absorbing stories. Today, most of these stories reach us through reels and videos. But there are still old-styled people, like me, who’d rather read. The art of reading predates all of this by thousands of years. I enjoy it more than most things, which is exactly why a certain claim doing the rounds recently caught my attention. It’s being sold to people as a shortcut to intelligence, and I think it deserves a closer look. Here’s what’s being promoted: Read more books – 5 a month. Read faster – 1000 words a minute. Read like a CEO – one book a week, every week. People buy into this. I understand why … it sounds efficient, even impressive. But I want to walk you through why it doesn’t actually work, and I’m not saying this from theory. I’ve tried it myself. The food comparison, and where it actually leads Reading a book is a lot like eating food. You take something in. But the food itself doesn’t give y...

You Don’t Have a ‘Fear of Attachment’ – You Have a Borrowed Belief

Image
We live in an era where information is free, but understanding is not. Anyone can read a phrase like “fear of attachment,” feel a flicker of recognition, and walk away believing it describes them … without ever checking if the phrase makes sense in the first place. This article is about one such phrase. But it’s not really about the phrase. It’s about how a made-up label quietly becomes a real identity, and how that identity can cost someone years of their life. Where the phrase falls apart Let’s start with what attachment actually is. We’re drawn to what feels good – a person, a place, a routine. We think about it often. Over time, it can occupy our mind almost entirely. We call this love, or when it deepens further, attachment. Attachment, at its root, is a pleasant feeling. It grows out of liking, out of comfort, out of wanting to be near something good. So, here’s the question worth sitting with: how do you fear something pleasant? Fear attaches itself to threat, to pain, to loss …...
