Episode 60: Projection, the Mirror, and the Mind: What Ayurveda Teaches Us About Seeing Clearly


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore one of the most common (and often misunderstood) human defense mechanisms: projection.

You'll learn how we unconsciously place our own unresolved emotions, fears, or traits onto others—and how to recognize when it's happening in your life.

Through real-life examples and deeper reflections, Paras weaves modern psychology with the wisdom of Ayurvedic and Vedic teachings—explaining the role of Chitta (the storehouse of impressions), Buddhi (discernment), and Ahamkara (ego) in shaping the way we perceive others.

You'll walk away with:

  • Practical signs someone is projecting onto you

  • Tools to stay grounded and avoid reacting

  • A deeper understanding of your own mind and energy body

  • Ayurvedic insights on how to clear distorted perception and cultivate truth
