This research paper explores the pressing issue of rising mental depression among college students in India by applying design thinking principles. Traditional methods like counselling, awareness campaigns, and medication were deemed inadequate. Integrating insights from ancient Indian scriptures, particularly King Kulaśekhara's Mukunda-mālā-stotra, we propose a holistic approach rooted thinking. Design thinking's holistic, user-centered, innovative, adaptable, measurable nature offers personalized solutions through empathizing, defining, ideating, prototyping, testing, implementing, evaluating, iterating. Case studies illustrate its success addressing individual student needs, fostering lasting well-being improvements. Hand-made or computer-generated drawings depict process components, emphasizing empathy, definition, ideation, implementation. study contributes flexible, human-centered merging wisdom with modern methodologies, aiding creating supportive educational environments, all within concise framework.
