Sattva Himalayan Wisdom with Anand Mehrotra

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.For more wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.sattvaconnect.com sattvayogaacademy.comwww.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/#caminodesantiago #AnandMehrotra  #pilgrimage #veda #synchronicity #upanishads   #self-realisation   #awakening   #wisdom   #consciousness   #mind   #intelligence   #growth   #sattvayogaacademy  #sattvaconnect  #knowledge   #yoga   

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.For more wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.sattvaconnect.com sattvayogaacademy.comwww.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/#AnandMehrotra   #veda   #upanishads   #self-realisation   #awakening   #wisdom   #consciousness   #mind   #intelligence   #growth   #sattvayogaacademy   #sattvaconnect   #knowledge   #yoga

In this episode continuing the 4-part mini-series of the Mahavakyas, Anand explores the jewel that comes from the Chandogya Upanishad, Tat Tvam Asi - Thou art that. This piece of wisdom dives into the fundamental questions we ask ourselves, who am I and why. In our search for self-realisation, this simple but potent declaration leads the seeker into the experience of discovering the very greatness of being and the truth of our essential nature.To dive deeper into the Chandogya Upanishad visit www.sattvaconnect.com/course-details/chandogya-upanishad to experience an in-depth exploration of this Upanishad with Anand Mehrotra Or For more wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.sattvaconnect.com www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/sattvayogaacademy.com #AnandMehrotra #chandogya #upanishads #vedas #self-realisation #awakening   #wisdom #consciousness #mind #intelligence #growth #sattvayogaacademy #sattvaconnect #knowledge #yoga  

In this new 4-part mini-series, Anand takes us into the contemplative medicine that is the four Mahavakyas. These great declarations coming from the Upanishads are as relevant today as they were hundreds of years ago. In each episode he will explore each Mahavakya in greater depth, bringing profound insight into the nature of Self and reality, enlivening our consciousness with ancient wisdom from the Yog-Vedantic Tradition. This first episode opens the door to Prajnanam Brahma, the first Mahavakya in the mini-series.For more wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.sattvaconnect.com www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/sattvayogaacademy.com#anandmehrotra #awakening #wisdom #consciousness #upanishads #yogvedantic #meditation #intelligence #vedic #growth #sattvayogaacademy #sattvaconnect #knowledge #yoga

In this Episode we journey back to Sattva Summit 2019, to experience the ever-present moment. Often we find ourselves wondering what is the future, but are in confusion as we are asked to be present in the now. Here in this satsang Anand explores and expands, bringing a true understanding to the here and now, encouraging us to expand our awareness of the present moment, bringing growth to our understanding of what it is to be truly here.For more wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.sattvaconnect.com www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/sattvayogaacademy.com#AnandMehrotra #awakening #wisdom #consciousness   #mind #beherenow #intelligence #presentmoment #growth #sattvayogaacademy #sattvaconnect #now   #knowledge #yoga  

This Episode taken from a Sattva Connect live stream, Anand takes us into deeper understanding for cultivating a better mind. When the mind is being informed by Atman (the soul), the quality of the mind is that of pristine clarity, peacefulness, connected to source intelligence. Otherwise, you’ll experience a distracted mind, dominated by negative emotions, filled with craving and aversion, fear and desire (Ahamkara or Ego). So, don’t let your mind become an architect of misery. Plant the seeds of the Banyan tree. Be the master of your mind. Stay open to source intelligence!For more wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.sattvaconnect.com www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/sattvayogaacademy.com#AnandMehrotra #awakening  #wisdom  #consciousness #mind   #intelligence #growth #sattvayogaacademy #sattvaconnect    #knowledge #yoga   

"What you experience right now, it is totally contingent on your own deserving power, your whole life is an extension of that"The understanding of this great law of nature can alter completely your life. So take a moment to dive into this new episode from a state of deep presence, stable mind and an open heart.As we explored in previous episodes, what level of consciousness you most consistently maintain become your experience of yourself and so life.Here we refine the understanding through the concept of deserving power. What you most consistently engage in, what state of consciousness you most consistently maintain you become capable of receiving that value in your life.If you want to raise your deserving power you have to consistently engage in the new expression of you, not from thoughts, but from your state, alter your state consistently and universe will start to organise around this new frequency.Deserving power is directly proportional to your staying power.Life can only be the way you are, cannot be any other way!!When you realise that you start to work on that, consistently show in that way, creating and meeting your future making your vision possible.For more wisdom and teachings please visit the following:www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/sattvayogaacademy.comwww.sattvaconnect.com #AnandMehrotra   #awakening   #wisdom   #consciousness   #deservingpower   #growth   #sattvayogaacademy   #sattvasummit   #sattvaconnect   #knowledge   #yoga 

This episode is a gem for practitioners on the path of evolution.To understand that the state of Yog is not at the end of the arrow, the state of yoga is now.Do not use your practice as another waiting room to get the state. Become mature practitioners instead of just chasers.Mature practitioners know that you can only arrive to the state now and this requires willingness and radical responsibility.We closed the last episode with a transformative question: What can I be aware of that can alter my consciousness state right now? So are you aware of your state?For more wisdom and teachings please visit the following:www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/sattvayogaacademy.comwww.sattvaconnect.com#AnandMehrotra #awakening #wisdom #consciousness #sattvayogaacademy #sattvasummit #sattvaconnect #knowledge #yoga
