  • Anna's Journey
    Ready to Learn to Let Go? Enrol @ www.bondimeditation.com.au/learntoletgo
    For this special episode we turned the tables and Matt asked Anna the questions.
    We discuss how Vedic Meditation and Vedic Knowledge have influenced Anna's experience of day-to-day life, her relationships and her sense of purpose. Anna explains which Vedic teachings that have helped her most and why and which she has found the hardest to apply.
    We hope you enjoy this excursion into the world of Anna.

  • Competitiveness, Social Media & The Status Trap
    Ready to enrol? Learn to Let Go here: www.bondimeditation.com.au/learntoletgo
    In this one we find out that Matt was a competitive nightmare and how he finally managed to rein it in. We also examine why it’s so tempting to get caught up in the status game in general, and the rewards for opting out of it.
    Finally we take a good look at social media, what's really going on in there and whether there is a way to use it healthily.
    As soon as we finished recording this one we agreed it was our favourite for a while, possibly ever.
    We hope you enjoy!

  • Covid & Finding Freedom in our Karma
    Ready to enrol? Learn to Let Go here: www.bondimeditation.com.au/learntoletgo
    For our comeback episode we dived straight back in at the deep end, tackling the most divisive topics of the moment (/ever?): Covid, vaccine choices and how to find our freedom in what is playing out in the world.
    Please excuse the less-than-perfect sound quality on this one. It's a 'lockdown' production. We'll be back to silky smoothness for the next ep.
    Hope you enjoy.
    Love Matt & Anna

  • Speech, White Lies & Sweet Truth, God
    In this episode, the last in our second series, we look deeply into speech and how we can refine it, we explore white lies and ‘the sweet truth’ before going out with a bang with a discussion around the sometimes sensitive topic of God.

  • Manifestation, Money & Compulsion
    In this episode Anna and I explore the Vedic view on manifestation, money and compulsion, considering ideas about black magic, free will and determinism along the way. It gets pretty cosmic but is hopefully practical too!
    We really enjoyed making this one and have been looking forward to sharing it with you.

  • George Floyd, Anna's Crisis of Faith & True Surrender
    We thought that this ended up being a particularly interesting episode. We recorded it in the immediate aftermath of the George Floyd tragedy so that naturally became part of the discussion. Anna also confessed that she has been feeling a crisis of faith around the fundamental principle of Vedic Knowledge: that ultimately benevolent forces are the most powerful and that love will win out in the end. We explored how much of what we have a problem with is a projection of something unresolved in ourselves and considered what it means to be truly surrendered.
    We got into some day-to-day techniques and practical responses so hopefully you will find something in this episode that helps you.
    With love and Jai Guru Deva

  • Vedic Parenting - Live Q&A Special
    This is a special live Q&A episode on the subject of Vedic Parenting. It's relevance isn't limited to parents though, as we’re all involved in raising children in some capacity, whether as family relations, friends etc.
    I was joined by Vedic Meditation teacher and mother of 20-month-old Indi, Jess Osie. We recorded the session live on Zoom with students of BMC listening and asking the questions.
    We discussed how to help children find their dharma (life’s purpose), the role of discipline in parenting, how to navigate around drugs and other social challenges and generally how to help children to be less fearful, happier and more fulfilled.
    Parenting is a sensitive and huge topic and this is just one take on it, but we hope you find something useful in there.

  • Deeper Into Charm, Conspiracy Theories & Radical Responsibility
    For this first episode of season two of Very Vedic, Anna and I explore experiences in the Covid-19 lockdown world from the comfort of my couch. No flash studios or sound recording experts on hand for this one so please excuse the touch of distortion on Anna's voice in the first half of the recording.

  • Very Vedic Live - Special Coronavirus Edition
    For this special episode, recorded live in Matt's living room in Bondi, we hosted a live online discussion about the coronavirus crisis. Listeners asked questions and Matt answered them in real time.
    As always with Vedic Knowledge, the conversation was an exploration of the possibilities that open up when we approach life consciously, and how the challenges we face at this time contain great opportunities for growth.
    We hope the ideas discussed here help you to find ways to thrive, rather than just survive, at this unique time in our lives.
