"The waking brain and the sleeping brain are doing a 24-hour cycle for as long as the run you have on this planet." - Dr. Rahul Jandial

Dr. Rahul Jandial, a neurosurgeon who operates on human brains, reveals something most of us have never considered: we spend a third of our lives in a completely different state of consciousness, and what happens there shapes everything about who we are when we're awake. He takes us on a fascinating journey from the rotation of the Earth to the deepest mechanisms inside our skulls, explaining why your brain will literally force you to sleep—even if you're starving, even if you're in danger. There's a pressure building inside you right now, an ancient rhythm that's been governing all life on this planet since the beginning. Dr. Jandial explains that understanding your dreaming brain isn't just about interpreting weird nighttime stories—it's about understanding why you overreact at the grocery store, why you feel stressed, why you are the way you are.

This conversation strips away all the mystical nonsense around dreams and gets to the raw science of what's actually happening in your skull every night. Dr. Jandial connects the dots between the material in your brain (which is made of the same stuff as everything else on Earth) and the profound experiences you have while unconscious. If you've ever wondered why we can't just stay awake forever, or what your brain is actually doing during those hours you're checked out, this episode gives you the playbook. It's not about dream interpretation books or symbolism—it's about understanding the fundamental cycle that governs your entire existence and learning how to work with it instead of against it.
