We had the privilege of sitting down with an absolute powerhouse, Swami Aparokshananda of Chinmaya Mission Perth, Australia. He sat down with us to tell the story of his journey in finding true purpose in realization and happiness in life. He talks about making a crucial life decision at the age of 20, taking his mum on his spiritual journey and having absolute clarity on the life he wished to live. This is not an episode you want to miss.

Have you ever taken a moment to think about what the Vedas actually are? How do the Upanishads, the great epics such as the Mahabharat and the Ramayana fall into the grand scheme of all the teachings? Today Ishaanji brings to light the importance of the Vedas and how all the knowledge in the Hindu culture is so beautifully articulated and accounted for.

Are you what you eat? Will you cease to function if you don't get you coffee in the morning? Do you have a sweet tooth? Today Akash, Pooja and Ishaanji talk about their health journeys, breaking their habits and the energy caried in food and the consequential effects food has on our minds.

GEN Z is here and they are making themselves known. They are dynamic and they want to shift away from the status quo. While they have the greatest intentions are they going about the correct way? Akash has a bone to pick with Gen Z and today he and Pooja discuss the differing approaches between Gen Z and Millennials. We would love to hear your thoughts on Gen Z or the gernations proceeding yours. Are you of the same opinion as Akash or do you agree with the new approach?

Akash, Ishaanji and Chinmay are back and asking the age old question, if a tree fell in the forest and nobody was there to hear it, did it exist? What is a 'real' experience and what goes into defining what a real experience is. We all think, feel and comprehend the world differently so what is the truth of the world really? All will be reveled in todays episode.

Is it okay to have nice clothes and a nice car if it means that it will help you with your career? If you can afford to build a big house should you? Today Ishaanji guides Akash and Pooja through the life long mission of desire management and knowing how to remain independent of the materials of the world. It's not a matter of what we do but how we think and the bigger vision we have for our life.

Have you heard the saying 'if you think you can or you can't either way you're right?'. The words we speak have a profound impact on the outcome and trajectory of our life.

In todays episode Akash, Ishaanji and Pooja discuss the power of language and the words we speak. If words have an impact then how many words are too many words?

Is age really just a number? Does it feel like life is running past you quicker than you can keep up? Is it too late for you to make a giant career shift? Today Akash, Ishaanji and Pooja discuss birthday celebrations and what really happens as we get older. They say change is the only constant so what is it that isn't changing.
