This beverage is ridiculously simple to stir up.The beverage is called “Takra” in Ayurveda, which refers to buttermilk or “thin lassi.”IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

The lifespan for today’s era according to Ayurveda should be around 120 years old.This doesn’t mean living into old age feeling frail and in a state of cognitive decline, it means feeling vital and able to share your wisdom and joy with full cognitive function for all to enjoy.At 65, Dr John Douillard is an exemplar of what it means to be healthy in the second half of life.Dr John is a globally recognised leader in the field of natural health, Ayurveda and sports medicine and practices what he preaches.He has personally been a significant inspiration to me (Dylan) and has taught me a lot in my years, along with thousands of other practitioners of Ayurveda.Dr John’s specialty is integrating ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern science, which he shares generously though Lifespa.com - the leading Ayurvedic health and wellness resource on the web.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

Ayurveda is has been dubbed “Indian medicine” or “traditional Indian medicine.”Ayurvedic medicine certainly has a pronounced presence throughout India and has so for the past millennia, but Ayurveda is not only Indian, it is universal.But why does Ayurveda seem to be so active in India?This is true and an interesting point…Although Ayurveda has been in the past and has the potential today to express itself fully in any country in the world, Ayurvedic wisdom and practices are well rooted and expressed throughout India. India and its culture exceptionally have and continue to uphold and nourish this precious knowledge, as well as act as a safe source for those who want to contact it. Even throughout various invasions where Moguls and British have targeted Vaidyas (Ayurvedic physicians) in an attempt to delete the healing wisdom, we can be thankful that the body of knowledge was safely hidden from those with dire intentions & passed down in sacred lineages of teachers and students. Indian culture and traditi

Diwali (Dīpāvalī दीपावली) is the time of the year to supersede our personal limitations, and enliven the light of consciousness that is the basis of all existence. AKA the Festival of Lights, it is perhaps the most famous Vedic festival of the year. In Sanskrit “Dīpāvalī” means “a row of earthen lit lamps.”On this new moon night, you will see India or Indian communities abroad lit up with lights. Light signifies purity, knowledge and auspiciousness.Lighting the “diya” (earthen lit lamp) guides us through the darkness to seek the eternal truth in our own personal lives.In the battle between light and darkness (jyoti and tamas), knowledge and ignorance (vidya and avidya), we must awaken and utilise what is offered on Diwali to leap beyond our ordinary boundaries rooted in ignorance and fear. We can awaken an inner transformative power in our devotion to the highest excellence within us. This is known as “Sri Rama” in the Vedas.May the light in your life, pure consciousness, shine on you and reflect with your fl

Karma  कर्म, a concept often misunderstood by most, is commonly translated as "action that binds", and it is basically any action that is determining our direction or pathway in life. When it comes to those we call our family, our karma acts as the underlying universal intelligence that bound us to these people. Understanding this concept, how to transcend and work through our already existing karma and how to avoid creating more of it, is a fundamental aspect of the path towards liberation or moksha, as called in the Vedic sciences. In this episode we not only dive into the concept of karma, but also explore how it intertwines with our familial relationships and how one can work through one's karma to reap the benefits of a frictionless life (kriya क्रिया). IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

"Siddhis" are extraordinary human realisations that yogis have been trying to attain for millennia.And many have been successful, because Siddhis are dormant non-local potentials that exist in every Consciousness state.A Siddha is one with perfected human capabilities.One who has sequenced the capabilities of Absolute Totality ("Brahman") to become the perfect (most relevant) expression of “Dharma" (the most evolutionary thing you can be doing in any given moment).Join Eddie Stern and Ayurvedic practitioner Dylan Smith as they discuss the Yoga Sutras of Maharishi Patañjali, one of the most well-known yogic texts that described these mystical "siddhis".IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

Uncle Noel Butler is an indigenous elder of the Yuin Nation (South Coast New South Wales).As a child he spent the days in the bush, hiding from government authorities as they were taking children away from their parents.He was living off the land and the ocean, in absolute communion with the environment that surrounded him and his community.Uncle Noel delivers his knowledge on Aboriginal Culture generously with passion and urgency.Indigenous and Aboriginal culture holds immense value for everyone living on earth, even more so in these times where we find ourselves increasingly alienated from nature.This sacred wisdom is so relevant to the modern man - practical knowledge to live a richer life in greater health, individually and collectively.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

According to the Vedic tradition, ancestors have a sole role - to support their descendants (you!) so you can perform your most evolutionary (dharmic) action.But for them to give energy and attention from their realms (lohkas), they require energy and attention to flow back to them in a reciprocal manner. When this flow of consciousness is reciprocated, their presence and support is enlivened.Furthermore, us on earth actually have a profound responsibility to assist our ancestors with their evolution.Robert Svododa and Dylan share ways to connect with your ancestors so that you can utilise their energy. These techniques and practices can promote your physical energy levels as well as increase the ability for cosmic intelligence to operate through you so that you radiate life for all to enjoy.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:
