    #13 - Beyond Pursuit of Happiness
    May 31 2023

    As I travel around the world teaching, I meet many people who say to me that they feel lost in life. They don’t know where their life is going, where it should be going and why. Life begins to feel like a rudderless boat. No idea which direction the coast is. So, is there a purpose to life? What is worth pursuing in life? Is life about only pursuit of happiness? What does the Veda have to say about this?


    Lets explore these questions in this session of YPRV.

    #12 - How The Universe Influences You
    May 17 2023

    I frequently teach that what we call as life is nothing but a series of Karmic experiences. As much as we like to think that we have full control over our lives, the harsh truth is we don’t. Prakruti or the intelligence in Nature is constantly influencing our experience of life. So, the question is, how does Prakruti or Nature influence our lives, what is the medium through which Prakruti influences our lives - our karmic experiences? Let us explore the answer to this question in this session of YPRV.

    #11 - How Science is hidden in the Mantras
    Apr 5 2023
    I frequently teach that Vedas contain both scientific as well as spiritual wisdom. The spiritual wisdom of the Vedas consists of various philosophies such as Samkhya, Vedanta, Yoga etc., and their respective practices. And, spiritual wisdom can be found throughout the Vedic literature. What about scientific wisdom, where is it contained in the Vedic literature, and how is it expressed and taught is what I will address in this episode.
