This episode is called The Two Powers You Need to Know Your Purpose - a deep and profound conversation with the wonderful Shikhaa.

Shikhaa spent forty years in India, living in an ashram and studying the ancient Vedic tradition with a living master. Her wisdom is drawn from lived experience - not theory, not concept - embodied truth.

You’ll hear us explore the big questions: what is oneness, what is God, and what is actually real beneath the noise of the mind. We talk about purpose, not as an achievement, but as a truth.

In this episode we explore:

* How meditation + satsang are the two great powers to return us home to purpose and clarity

* Why true happiness never comes from external achievement

* How oneness is unconditional and ever-present

* Why thoughts are waves, but we are the ocean

* How awakening happens quietly, in tiny micro realisations

If you’ve ever felt the ache for purpose, clarity, peace or an inner sanctuary you can return to - this one is for you.

I hope this conversation helps you on the road home to yourself.
