Vedic Worldview

Inspiration, Apathy vs Non-Attachment, An End to Humanity?


Listen Later

It’s Q&A time once again. 


In this episode Thom helps out a listener who doesn’t know why it might be important for her spouse to learn Vedic Meditation. Thom includes the possibility that it might in fact not be important for him to learn


He discusses the distinction between apathy and non-attachment, and the very simple yet distinct indicator that tells us which we might be experiencing. 


And he considers a hypothetical scenario where all of humanity becomes enlightened. More specifically, he discusses where the supply of souls seeking enlightenment comes from. 


Needless to say, we won’t be running out of souls any time soon…
