The book "Journey to Ixtlan" and life of Carlos Castaneda inspired in me a deep wound of being disappointed by someone not being who they pretended to be.
It send me on a deep philosophical introspective journey through writings of Joseph Campbell, Friedrich Nietzsche, Marcel Proust, David Graeber and Georges Bataille and somehow it made complete sense when put in perspective of Don Juan and Carlos Castaneda.

Harnam is back on a show and we talk about courageous music, a music like "Die Before You Die" new catchy single from Harnam which was actually inspired by our previous conversation on Sadhana and Books. We do touch upon so many other subjects like astrology, politics, wellness and we end on a deep dive into 5 Sutras for the Aquarian Age which are such a good remainder to have compassion and forgiveness at this stage in our lives.
I hope you enjoy it.

Part 3 of Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu.
This is the most practical and applicable section of Tao Te Ching.
The last third of the Tao focuses and social, economic, and governing aspects of life on Earth. These truths are still highly applicable because human society has not changed a great deal. Not only do we learn about rulership but we are given a glimpse on how to live like a sage.

Sat Kirtan had everything she could ever want. Great job, money, a great relationship, and a big house but she wasn’t happy. It was a pleasure for me to get to know Sat Kirtan, just with her presence she will embed within you a "can do anything" attitude. She is truly a master of overcoming obstacles. But she is much much more. In this interview, we talk about her unusual journey to kundalini yoga, about business and yoga, and what it means to be a conscious leader. We touch upon the numerology of this year and Sat Kirtan shares with us a meditation to overcome any obstacles.
You can download Sat Kirtan's books here for free:

This is part 2 of Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu.
Tao te ching is a kind of work that does not necessarily have a beginning, middle, or end so you can hop in anywhere and receive just the right message you are looking for.
in this episode, I will take a closer look at verses 28 - 54 which probably won't mean anything to you however the main ideas that resonate strongly in these verses are so aquarian that they are revolutionary.
What is Tao, really?
What's the best weapon that all creatures fear?
How does a wise price rule?
Tao Te Ching is full of contradictions, what is it all about?
Tune in and find a message that will resonate with you today.

Tao Te Ching is the most translated book ever after the Bible. It was written roughly 2500 years ago by Lao Tzu.
In this episode, I look at the first 27 verses focusing on 3 main themes of the tao: Metaphysics, Dialectics, and Governance or practical knowledge.
Listening to the Tao Te Ching can easily serve as a mantra, a mind vibration, that helps you to release stress from overly analytical daily diatribes and instead, help you vibrate with the everlasting Tao.
I hope you enjoy the mind-opening, expansive, poetic, and contradictory world of the Tao.
This is part 1 of 3

In the latest episode of Bhagavad Gita, we meet Krishna's dark side. We also learn about the Royal path to yoga and most interestingly, Krishna shares the secret to immortality.
I mention two great scientists one is Robert Oppenheimer who was reminded of Krishna's words from the Bhagavad Gita at the first test of a nuclear weapon. The other scientist is Neil deGrasse Tyson who famously does not see evidence of god anywhere.

Welcome to the first-ever Sadhana and Books episode. This is the first out of four episodes about the Bhagavad Gita. We will talk about the background of this text and take a close look at the first three chapters. 1. The War Within, 2. Self-Realization, 3. Selfless Service.
Studying the wisdom of the Gita has been transformational for me and I hope you will find some deeply resonating truths in it as well.
