  • Welcome to the fourth episode of Impressions—The Art of Relating. Recorded during a transformative retreat in Australia in 2018, this episode explores the deep and essential question: Is it possible to love others without first loving ourselves? Drawing from the Sattva Connect course, we journey into the dynamics of love, perception, and the ego's role in distorting our understanding of self-worth.

    This episode delves into how self-hatred, resentment, and feelings of inadequacy are born from ego-driven beliefs, leading to a distorted view of love. We explore the layers of the mind—Chitta, Buddhi, Manas, Ahamkara—and how they shape our experiences. By understanding the mind's workings and recognising the ego's influence, we can dissolve harmful self-narratives and move toward states of greater awareness and enlightenment.

    Through practice, we can stabilise our inner dialogue, shift our internal content, and experience love as an intrinsic part of who we are—free from the ego’s hold. Tune in to explore the path to self-compassion, observe patterns of self-loathing, and discover how deeper awareness can transform our capacity to love authentically and fully.

  • In this episode of Impressions, we delve into the profound teachings of the Chandogya Upanishad and explore the ancient wisdom behind "Yatha Pinde Tatha Brahmande"—as within, so without. We examine the fundamental ground that gives rise to all material reality, revealing how matter emerges from the immaterial, and how consciousness, in its purest form, shapes the fabric of existence.

    Join us as we explore the subtler dimensions of being, beyond time and space, where the material and intelligent causes of reality merge. This episode addresses the timeless question of the origin of God and the cyclical nature of cause and effect in time. We also reflect on the immense power of the mind, the significance of our thoughts, and the creative potential of consciousness itself.

    Discover how the reality we experience mirrors the reality within, and how the power of your attention shapes both your inner and outer world. Tune in to explore the subtle truths of reality and unlock the creative agency that lies at the heart of existence.

  • Welcome to the second episode of the series Impressions , this podcast is inspired by the transformative teachings of the course The Alchemy of Life. In this episode, we embark on a profound exploration of the self and the fundamental nature of reality. We delve into the concepts of transformation, karma, and dharma, and how aligning with consciousness can lead to a deeper understanding of existence. Discover the duality of perception—both relative and subjective—and how external awareness of thoughts bridges the internal and external worlds.

    Join us as we unravel the essence of "isness" and the realisation that the field of consciousness dissolves the boundary between inside and outside, uniting the observer with the observed. This journey will guide you toward a greater understanding of how our inner and outer perceptions reflect the true nature of being. Tune in for an enlightening experience that transcends the ordinary and reveals the interconnectedness of all that is.

  • In this new series each episode takes a glimpse into a jewel of wisdom that is offered during retreats. This opportunity here now offers us a connection to the specific knowledge that expands during these intensive offerings. We invite you to pause and journey with these moments from each retreat.

    In this first episode we visit the opening talk of Enlivening the Spirit Retreat from 2021.

    This talk is timeless, where Anand Ji explores the understanding of the atman and its ultimate purpose. Claiming our fundamental identity to move from that centre. The location of this centre as spirit is the fundamental value of who we are. As we learn the lessons of life, this reference helps to navigate the great play of life. Unlocking ourselves from the victim state, becoming self-referral consciousness and embodying our natural state. This retreat is an opportunity to grow, claim one’s sacredness without validation needed from the external, moving in the direction of connection and unity.

  • Concluding our Gita Insights series, Anand invites us to recognise our Arjuna nature as we contemplate the phenomenal teachings of Krishna. Our inner longing is for unity, a wholeness that is expressed in the word Yoga. If our intention is to access that state of unity, then it is natural that the approach has to be also unified. For growth to be genuine, there has to be growth in a holistic manner. Then we will come to the state, the practice and the experience of unity, of Yoga. Be a Yogi, Arjuna. Be the one who creates unity.

  • Continuing with Gita Insights, Krishna is advising Arjuna is to live a life where there is no failure, but rather just opportunities and possibilities. This is a brilliant insight to help us navigate the journey in this samsara, in this world, with great elegance. Do not be attached to inaction. Act you must. But let your action be an act of service and know that when your action is of the highest order, the field will respond in kind and in quality. So serve with this deep sense of knowing in your heart that only great gifts are coming,

  • In this episode of the Gita Insights, Anand Ji explores another rich pearl of wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita. We say we only honour worthy inquiry; we should only teach or share insights when asked. In the Gita we have Arjuna declaring to Krishna, “I am your shishya.” A shishya is a student with a very deep inner commitment. This is the highest kind of a student.

    All that we value and all that we really seek in life is found at a greater depth of being. In the Gita, this wisdom is shared by Krishna with Arjuna because he is a true shishya. Enliven that shishya nature in yourself and realise life-transformative wisdom.

  • In this first episode of the Gita Insights series, Anand reminds us that we are listeners and students of the wisdom that Krishna shares in the Bhagavad Gita. The same wisdom is being offered to those who are listening and yet it has different effects on them, because every listener listens from his or her own consciousness state. Arjuna fully awakens and gets enlivened, while Dhritarashtra is left with deep disillusionment. Within each and every one of us, there is Arjuna, the spiritual warrior, the atman, who is here to discover the shining jewel of truth. Will you align with your own Arjuna nature and lean in the direction of growth?

  • Join Anand Ji in this transformative meditation of expansion for the self. Go within and realise the choice of who you are is your’s as the creator of your own reality.

This meditation takes us to the silence within for an experience and reshaping of the Self as creator of self. What self are you calling upon at this moment?

  • This episode launches our new series, Contemplation Meditation Sessions. We begin with a livestream aired on Sattva Connect 26th of November 2023.

    On the surface of life, there is seeming separation, boundaries, but when you go deeper you realise the underlying unity that is our reality. And when you perceive this unity, you experience immense kindness and compassion; you begin to treat the other as yourself. Then our world becomes a much more loving place. Here is only limited by the boundaries of our perception. So expand those boundaries now!

  • Moving on with The Inquiry Sessions, this episode sees Bajrang, Sattva Master Teacher, Jyoti and founder of Sattva California, joining the sessions to pose the question on one of the fundamental aspects of living in community. How do we cultivate it? The discussion opens up with the knowledge that community is a concept and moves into the realisation of the individual as the whole. This brings awareness to the self and to one’s projection and personal responsibility within all aspects of relating.

  • In this episode we continue with the Part 2 of the discussion on addiction and recovery with Tommy Rosen, Founder of Recovery 2.0 and the podcast “In The Circle.” In The first part brings up the discussion on power, empowerment and its role in addiction, how the Yog-Vedantic knowledge has keys to open our connection to authentic power by accessing a higher source within and without.

    Building on that concept, the knowledge flows to greater understanding of developing a relationship with the Divine and the choice for a better self-orientation with life.

    As that relationship evolves, we develop greater connection to community, creating a heathier society that celebrates celebrates each one moving into greater unity as an individual and as the whole.

  • In this episode, Tommy Rosen of Recovery 2.0 and the “In The Circle”podcast joins Anand to discuss the poignant topic of addiction and recovery through the Yog-Vedantic approach. Here in part 1, Tommy’s questioning begins with the origins and structure of modern-day recovery and the current lens in which it operates. Their discussion then moves to the structure of leadership, learning to bring evolution from the Vedantic perspective, and gaining access to the field of knowledge.

    We learn about understanding addiction from a broader point of view, as a part of the human condition and the identification of being an addict. We gain further knowledge by working to expand on the concepts of self-forgetfulness created in time and bring to light the innate quest for bliss and connection that is the drive of the human experience.

  • Join us as we continue with The Inquiry Sessions. In this episode, Sattva Master Teacher Simon Keenan converses with Anand, exploring the art of sacred pilgrimage. Simon has lived on the famous pilgrimage path, the Camino de Santiago, serving for 10 years. There he has accompanied and shared the Sattva teachings with pilgrims on their journeys. Anand brings light to the aspect of synchronicity which is often amplified and more commonly experienced on sacred pilgrimage. Whilst in the context of seeking God, Anand explores the difference between believing in God and experiencing God.

    One of the biggest challenges pilgrims face is returning home and integrating their experiences. In a deep sharing, Anand explains the importance of taking time to transition mindfully and of how to keep the learnings alive, especially when one has journeyed through a transformational, enlivening experience. This is also one of the key focuses of Simon's project, Wisdom of the Way (@wisdomoftheway_).

    This is a unique and beautiful opportunity to deepen one's understanding of pilgrimage as a journey through life, where the big outer journeys really become the vehicles for the big inner journey. We are encouraged to step into the unknown, to accept the invitations and to meet the challenges which take us to new places within.

  • Welcome to the first in this series of interviews with Sattva Master Teachers. Over these next episodes, Anand Ji is joined by Sattva Master Teachers in their inquiry to expand the field of knowledge in their respective fields of interest. Taking us into new depths of understanding for an integrated approach to evolution while exploring the Yog-Vedantic Tradition.

    In this episode, Sattva Master Teacher Geoff Rupp from Find Your Calm joins Anand Ji to find greater understanding and the unraveling of the intricate fabric of spiritual wisdom, traditions, and practices. Their conversation explores the difference between tradition and lineage and how this is orientated in the revered Shankaracharya tradition.

    Anand Ji also discusses whether an integrated spiritual practice, incorporating elements like Yoga, Meditation and Kirtan, can enrich your journey or dilute the essence of each path. We also learn how to discern authenticity in spiritual teachings amidst teachers claiming to be the only way in the digital noise of the world today. Then he delves into the contentious subject of cultural appropriation in the age of global spiritual awakening.
