Take 15 minutes to reset, reconnect, and return to the present moment. In this short guided meditation, Anand Mehrotra leads you through a simple yet powerful practice of breath awareness and relaxed attention. Designed to be used anytime during your day, this meditation helps you release mental noise, soften the body, and drop into a state of effortless presence. By observing the breath and witnessing thoughts without attachment, you are invited to access a deeper stillness that exists beyond the constant movement of the mind. As awareness settles, a quiet, all encompassing presence begins to emerge, dissolving distractions and bringing a sense of clarity and ease. The practice gently closes by anchoring awareness in the heart and breath, allowing you to carry this grounded presence with you as you move through your day. Perfect for a quick reset, a midday pause, or a moment of stillness whenever you need it.

In this guided meditation, you are invited to return to the simplicity of the present moment. Through breath awareness, this session guides you on an inward journey away from the noise of the external world and toward the steady presence of the inner witness, the “seer.” Exploring the transient nature of thoughts, emotions, sensations, and life experiences and learning to observe them without fear or judgment. As the temporary nature of the “seen” becomes clear, the eternal, luminous quality of awareness itself begins to reveal itself. Sit back and allow yourself to experience a returning to your natural state of luminousness, fearlessness, and profound gratitude.

In Part 2 of Sattva Himalayan Wisdom, Yogic Master Anand Mehrotra continues the exploration of Sattva Yoga Academy’s vision, diving deeper into the meaning of lineage and the living transmission of yogic wisdom.

“Across universes and lifetimes, the journey is the same — to awaken the light of dharma within.” In this episode, we enter the timeless story of Garuda, the celestial bird and devoted vehicle of Narayana. Seeking to understand the mystery of existence — how the boundless becomes finite — Garuda journeys to the Himalayas to meet the sage Kakbhushundi, who had realised the true nature of the Self. Through their dialogue, profound truths unfold: the infinite expressing through the finite, the many lives and universes that play out in consciousness, and the essence of the hero’s journey. Garuda’s vision reveals Rama, not only as the great avatara of Narayana, but as the eternal principle of dharma and devotion — alive in every universe, and within every heart. This teaching reminds us that we too are on the hero’s journey. Our obstacles are not barriers, but catalysts — the very forces that awaken our highest potential. Within each life lies a universe, and within each heart, Rama, the radiant hero, waiting to rise.

Awakened Tales invites you into the timeless tradition of sacred storytelling rooted in the Yog-Vedantic path. Guided by Anand Ji, each episode is a journey through powerful narratives drawn from India's living oral tradition. These stories do more than entertain—they transmit deep wisdom, awaken insight, and connect us to the source intelligence that flows through the ancient teachings. Embrace each tale to stir the eternal within you. In this opening episode, Anand Ji shares the tale of King Janaka and Sage Sukhdeva—revealing timeless wisdom on detachment, inner freedom, and true spiritual maturity. Through their story, we are reminded that liberation isn’t about renouncing the world, but about letting go of our attachments to it. The path is not outward (bahirmukhi), but inward (antarmukhi). “Liberation is not what you leave behind, but rather what you do not cling to. It is not possessions which are limitation, but rather the attachment to possessions.” Anand Ji  For more meditative wisdom, knowledge and integrative teachings visit : www.sattvaconnect.com  sattvayogaacademy.com www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/ #storytelling #YogVedantic #AnandMehrotra #meditation #self-realisation #awakening #wisdom #consciousness #growth #unity #sattvayogaacademy #sattvaconnect #knowledge #yoga

Continuation of the series Through the Visionary Lens. In this episode, we explore one of the oldest and most profound insights from the Rig Veda, attributed to the sage Dhirgatamas: Ekam Sat Vipra Bahudha Vadanti—"The truth is one, but is expressed in many ways." What is truth? Is it absolute or relative? Through the lens of this ancient wisdom, we uncover the nature of Sat—a singular, timeless reality that underlies all existence. Beyond ideology and division, all truths arise from this unified field. No single perspective holds a monopoly on truth, yet all seekers, across time and tradition, are drawn toward it. Join Anand Ji as we dive deep into this timeless Vedic insight and its relevance in our ever-evolving world.

Welcome to "Through the Visionary Lens," a podcast series dedicated to exploring the profound mysteries of existence through timeless wisdom and modern understanding. In this first instalment from the series, we delve deep into the ancient Yog-Vedantic teaching of “Yatha Pinde, Tatha Brahmande”—"As within, so without." This knowledge invites us to recognise the inseparable connection between the self and the universe. The cosmos and the individual are not distinct entities but reflections of each other, mirrors through which the universe perceives itself. By understanding this interconnection, we unlock the potential for profound transformation. Join Anand Ji on this journey as he uncovers how our state of consciousness shapes our reality, offering liberation from the endless struggle to control the external world. Instead, A focus on the empowering realisation that true transformation begins within. Through our awareness and intentional action, we can align ourselves with the flow of growth and evolution, shifting our inner world to create harmony in the outer one. Let this exploration inspire you to look deeper, shift perspective, and live more fully—through the visionary lens of self-awareness and universal connection.

Welcome to the fourth episode of Impressions—The Art of Relating. Recorded during a transformative retreat in Australia in 2018, this episode explores the deep and essential question: Is it possible to love others without first loving ourselves? Drawing from the Sattva Connect course, we journey into the dynamics of love, perception, and the ego's role in distorting our understanding of self-worth. This episode delves into how self-hatred, resentment, and feelings of inadequacy are born from ego-driven beliefs, leading to a distorted view of love. We explore the layers of the mind—Chitta, Buddhi, Manas, Ahamkara—and how they shape our experiences. By understanding the mind's workings and recognising the ego's influence, we can dissolve harmful self-narratives and move toward states of greater awareness and enlightenment. Through practice, we can stabilise our inner dialogue, shift our internal content, and experience love as an intrinsic part of who we are—free from the ego’s hold. Tune in to explore the path to self-compassion, observe patterns of self-loathing, and discover how deeper awareness can transform our capacity to love authentically and fully.

In this episode of Impressions, we delve into the profound teachings of the Chandogya Upanishad and explore the ancient wisdom behind "Yatha Pinde Tatha Brahmande"—as within, so without. We examine the fundamental ground that gives rise to all material reality, revealing how matter emerges from the immaterial, and how consciousness, in its purest form, shapes the fabric of existence. Join us as we explore the subtler dimensions of being, beyond time and space, where the material and intelligent causes of reality merge. This episode addresses the timeless question of the origin of God and the cyclical nature of cause and effect in time. We also reflect on the immense power of the mind, the significance of our thoughts, and the creative potential of consciousness itself. Discover how the reality we experience mirrors the reality within, and how the power of your attention shapes both your inner and outer world. Tune in to explore the subtle truths of reality and unlock the creative agency that lies at the heart of existence.
