The Vedic World View

While most of us have mentors or figures that have a significant impact on our lives, few of us have the great good fortune to spend much time with a great leader such as Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. In this episode, Thom reflects on both the origin story of his relationship with Maharishi, and the final chapter of the “in-person” interactions he had with him. It’s a sweet tale that gives us a deeper appreciation of Guru-Student relationships, how the tradition of Masters that have been custodians of Vedic wisdom has evolved over time, and how the consciousness of the tradition is maintained throughout the centuries.  Episode Highlights:(00:45) A Great Seer(02:22) MIU(04:24) A Second Father(06:04) Give Me a Quote(08:31) A Good Night's Sleep(10:38) Om(12:59) All Rise(14:44) A Force Five Hurricane of Happiness(16:27) Jai Guru Deva(18:03) An Exclamation of Joy(20:13) Angavastra Dhoti(22:22) Asana(24:22) Guru Purnima(26:24) Puja(27:46) An Advanced Technique(29:10) An Alternative to the Advanced Technique(31:09) Minimiz
