In this introspective episode of Beyond The Known, Jitesh Vaswani delves into the often-overlooked experience of solitude that arises during periods of profound personal and spiritual growth. This is not the typical loneliness we rush to escape, but a rare, transformative stillness, one that occurs when your inner evolution outpaces the world around you.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected or misunderstood on your spiritual journey, this video will illuminate why that sense of isolation is not a misfortune, but a signpost to your greater self.
Join us as we explore the profound beauty of this inner metamorphosis and discover how to navigate the delicate balance between solitude and self-discovery.

Whether it’s launching a podcast, taking an exam, or chasing a dream, self-doubt shows up. But so can stillness. Drawing from the teachings of Gurudev, his own breathwork journey, and a parable from the Buddha, Jitesh shares three grounded tools to move through doubt with clarity and courage.
This isn’t about eliminating fear. It’s about showing up gently, truthfully, anyway.
