S1 Ep 114114. Live as a Consciousness. Not as a Human-Robot.
Conscious texting with CB on +1310-361-5485 available to seekers in the USA and Canada only. This episode is about understanding whether we live as consciousness or keep doing things as a human-robot. While we may think we have control over everything, there is almost nothing that we can control. When we start to become available to higher consciousness, we start to understand the difference between what we can manage and what we just have to cooperate with. This episode is an invitation to dive deeper into your elements of sexual energy, ego, greed, anger, happiness, and all of the other emotions that really define you. Then to understand how these emotions are controlling you rather than you managing them. Once you understand that, we arrive at the tantra perspective on how we can truly maximize the power and strength of our consciousness and go beyond those robotic, unconscious life patterns that keep dictating how we should live and love.

S1 Ep 113113. Let Go of Expectations
Conscious texting with CB on +1310-361-5485 available to seekers in the USA and Canada only. This episode is about understanding how we need to handle our expectations. Whenever we feel angry, stressed out, or anxious, it is mostly when our expectations are not fulfilled. Those unfulfilled expectations turn into misery and anger. Meanwhile, the fulfilled expectations give us pleasure and happiness for a moment, but that is only for a moment. If you continue to live your life around expectations, you will never be satisfied. This episode is really a reminder of how we need to revisit our expectations because so much of what we crave for and see in our success and failure is really connected to our expectations. These expectations come from family conditioning, cultural conditioning, and when our mind starts to compare and calculate our journey based on what is happening outside. In the age of social media, expectations really start to dictate and dominate how you should live and that is where the misery shows up. We hope this episode brings you an awareness of what your expectations are and how they are dominating you.

S1 Ep 112112. Toxic Masculinity vs. Divine Masculinity
Conscious texting with CB on +1310-361-5485 available to seekers in the USA and Canada only. In this episode, Chandresh discusses why masculinity is toxic, angry, or unconscious, and suppressed. He explains why anger seems to be the most common expression of men when they are going through a conflict, why it's difficult for men to be vulnerable, in touch with their feelings, and why this problem is not addressed and seen in the most open way. Chandresh shares the tantra perspective on the suppressed masculinity and how the feminine and women have taken a revolutionary approach toward liberating themselves from conditioning. However, men are still slow in taking those steps because patriarchy has damaged the fragrance and foundation for both men and women. This episode is all about going deeper into how a man can go beyond their conditioning and invite a new awareness and strength for the new man that they need to be in these times. The man of this century is required to be vulnerable, poetic, mystic, emotional, spiritual, and a mix of all the seasons and elements. The anger, aggression, and possessiveness need to finally go away, and our hope is this episode will open a conversation and dialog in the heart of men to be receptive, open, and find their spiritual liberation.

S1 Ep 111111. We Don't Matter. And that's Great News.
Conscious texting with CB on +1310-361-5485 available to seekers in the USA and Canada only. This week's episode is about how the ego glorifies things and makes something that is meaningless, our entire existence. This could be the job, getting the next material item, the unnecessary drama that we love sometimes, or the need to always win an argument. The list is countless, but the point is when the ego makes you think you need to win or be the first in the race, even though it's a rat race, that makes you feel that everything revolves around you. The deeper you go in your awareness, you realize we do not matter and our silly ideas about success and failure do not matter. This is all a product of social and cultural conditions. In this episode, Chandresh shares this uncomfortable insight that so much of what we do is actually a meaningless, unconscious repetition of things and when we realize that none of that matters, then the real experience of life starts to wake up and expand through us. Then we realize that surrender, devotion, and liberation from this kind of conditioning matters and we have to get out of our own way to experience that.

S1 Ep 110110. Meditating vs Staying Meditative
Conscious texting with CB on +1310-361-5485 available to seekers in the USA and Canada only. In this episode, Chandresh shares how being in a meditative state is different from meditating. Most people put in the effort to meditate in the moment, but forget about what happens beyond the mat and meditation session. This episode is all about reflecting on how each of us handles everything within and around us both on and off the meditation mat. When you are showing up for meditation, you can recharge yourself. If you are not paying attention to how you handle and respond to life at other times, you might lose that recharged energy in the blink of a moment. It is very important to stay aware and witness all of the chaos, calmness, pain, and suffering that show up from awareness. This episode encourages everyone to make aware choices and to show up for their awareness 24/7.

S1 Ep 109109. The Future of Intimacy and Relationships
Conscious texting with CB on +1310-361-5485 available to seekers in the USA and Canada only. In this episode, Chandresh shares what could happen when virtual reality and technological developments take over human intimacy. There are many devices and sex toys being developed right now that bring more pleasure, excitement, and help to eliminate the loneliness in human connections. Chandresh shares questions we may be thinking if technology takes over intimacy. For example, what will define consent or cheating? What would be the state of aloneness and mental health as the robots and sex toys start to take over human companionship? Above all, what happens to the sacredness in the act of sex, and the healing that happens when we speak and connect with a human. Intimacy goes way beyond the physical connection and is a deeper experience. The bright side is if you handle the present state of your intimacy, then the future of intimacy will be bright and fine for you. If your present connection with intimacy is blurry and uncertain, then this will translate into the future as well. We hope this episode allows people to reflect on the tough questions that they need to meditate on right now so they can handle their future better with the technology that is taking over intimacy.

S1 Ep 108108. Self-Realization Through Silence- A Tantra Perspective
Conscious texting with CB on +1310-361-5485 available to seekers in the USA and Canada only. In present time silence is often associated with the idea of suppression, weakness, or some sort of bypassing of important emotions. However, silence has always played an important role in the tantra traditions and in the different paths of meditation. Silence here does not mean suppression or bypassing something. Instead, it is a really powerful bridge and pathway toward experiencing, obtaining, and cultivating self-realization. In this episode, Chandresh shares a lot of simple and deep teachings on silence. Through tantra, we can see that something as simple as silence is taught in the twelve steps of silence and the ancient wisdom traditions because although it looks simple, there is a science behind the silence. If you learn this the right way, it can open up some extremely powerful doors toward your healing and self-realization. We hope this episode resonates with you and helps you.

S1 Ep 9191. Why New Year's Resolutions Fail? - A Spiritual Perspective
In this week's episode, Chandresh shares how resolutions are not the right way to manifest your vision. Resolutions limit your creativity, the playfulness of your conscious energy, and the power of your intuition. They also restrict how your soul wants to grow and expand in the future. A resolution means you are restricting yourself to some imaginary plan in the future.

S1 Ep 8686. Transcend Your Personality
In this episode, Chandresh shares how personality compromises of the ideas, narratives, labels, and stories we receive from society, family, religion, school, and so on. This notion of personality becomes so strong within us that we are not able to go beyond that personality. Ultimately, we start living as an idea of someone which is not ours. We tend to neglect our own blooming because we get so stuck in this idea of personality. In this episode, Chandresh shares how awareness does not have personality, but that is our reality. The point is to go beyond becoming and start being. Chandresh shares a few points like having the willingness to go beyond the personality, and to disobey consciously in order to transcend the personality. It is also important to plant the intention to live with courage and clarity. In addition, he shares two mantras for those wanting to integrate this in their meditation which are soham namana and aham brahmasmi.

S1 Ep 8585. From Anger to Compassion
In this episode, Chandresh shares how anger is not the real problem. The problem comes when we are not ready to understand the root of anger and heal the unconscious patterns that elevate it. As a society, we are not comfortable with anger, but taught to suppress the anger so it never really comes out in its pure form. Instead, it is blended with ego, control, and violence. This is one of the reasons anger creates multiple troubles in our mind and emotions. In this episode, Chandresh shares the tantra perspective on how to release and channel anger into creative conscious outlets. Anger has the potential to become ultimate compassion, but can only do so by understanding it, respecting it, and then using the power of meditation to flow through it. Chandresh also shares his own personal story with anger and an inspiring story from Buddha's journey in how he led others in healing their anger and finding a home for their bliss through it.

S1 Ep 8484. A Life Lesson in Self Awareness and Acceptance
In the age of social media, we have become so judgemental. We are constantly giving advice to people without really implementing or understanding the application and affect in our life. We are eager to share the information without really experiencing the science of the advice for us. Not only has this become a norm in social media, but across the wellness field. It has become normal for someone to give advice that they have no connection with. In this episode, Chandresh shares a personal experience with going through the experience of that life lesson and then sharing it with others. In addition, he shares a very profound story from the life of Mahatama Gandhi and how that changed his journey.

Chandresh shares his experience, how he handles social media usage, and his experience with other people. A few of the problems shared include the reaction and validation of others becomes an important thing to us, in which we start doing things to get validation from others.

Chandresh shares solutions to these dilemmas such as beginning to make conscious decisions around social media usage, creating a conscious plan on how you will use social media, and asking yourself who you follow and why.

S1 Ep 7878. Are you Over Giving?
This week's episode is all about understanding how sometimes in life we over give, and that over giving is never healthy. Sometimes we do it out of compassion. Other times we do it out of our own conditioning, childhood or adult experiences, for our job, money, and more. However, overgiving never turns out to be a healing experience for anything. In the spiritual traditions, we replace over giving with conscious giving. Conscious giving then leads to conscious receiving. In this episode, Chandresh shares his personal journey with over giving and the lessons he has come to understand, and continues to practice and implement.

S1 Ep 7676. Energy Transformation in Tantra
In tantra, the most powerful teaching is the transformation of energy. Tantra does not teach us to suppress, but instead is very inclusive and inviting toward whatever kind of energy you are going through. Tantra encourages the transformation of the energy whether it be sexual, anger, greed, attachment, etc. It especially welcomes energies we consider dark or unwanted because these are the emotions that create suppression, anxiety, and other psychological problems in our being. Tantra teaches us to understand the root of these elements and eventually transform these energies into higher creative outlets. In this episode, Chandresh explains the main aspect of energy transformation along with solutions to it.

S1 Ep 7575. Beyond the Fear- Guided Mantra Meditation
This week's episode is a guided meditation related to going beyond fear. We hold onto fear in the subconscious layers of our mind. The mind itself goes back and forth into all of the suppression and karmic contracts. Many times we are not aware because the fear is so deeply rooted in our brain. With the help of meditation, we can give a conscious outlet to fear. In this guided meditation, we use two powerful mantras including Vum Hroom (h is silent) and SA KA LA HAREEM. We hope this meditation helps you to cultivate conscious outlets of fear so it may be released.

S1 Ep 7373. Going Beyond Fear
In this episode, Chandresh speaks about how the seeds of fear are planted in childhood. Many times, they are planted when we are conceived in our mother's wound, transferring the fear of our parents to us. Our own past life patterns may also show up. The bottom line is, all of the fear is a symptom of a deeper rooted problem. We are taught to run away from or operate from fear, which does not solve the problem. If we unconsciously move into fear, it builds blind obedience and unconscious rebellion. Both of these elements do not solve the problem. Chandresh shares specific solutions on how to understand fear, go beyond it, and how meditation can be a part of the solution. In next week's episode, we will share a meditation to help us go beyond fear.

S1 Ep 7272. Honoring Our Ancestors Through Tantra
In this episode, Chandresh talks about our relationship with ancestors. In the western culture, there is no specific ritual to honor the ancestors and include them in our day to day life. However, in many traditions of the world, there are specific ways to honor ancestors. In this episode, Chandresh discusses tantra and eastern wisdom traditions, sharing his own experience with ancestors and how honoring them starts to unblock conditioning and heal suppression. Even if we believe we are an original piece of art, we all have pieces of recycled material from our ancestors within us. Honoring our ancestors can help us expand our strength and potential. Chandresh shares many tantra practices and rituals including Kul Deva, deity of the lineage, and Kul Dosha, fault or blocked energy in the lineage. We hope this episode brings insight, specific solutions, and ritual practices for not only healing the connection with ancestors, but also bringing more strength, clarity, and courage in how your life is evolving and unfolding.

Chandresh shares his own journey with mental health and how meditation and spirituality have given him strength when feeling weak.

S1 Ep 6868. Self Realization- The Essential Revolution
It has become so difficult for us to experience self realization and peace without looking for the answers outside of us. It is very easy for the mind to constantly blame and look for the answers externally, but the truth is the solution lives within us. In this episode, Chandresh talks about the spiritual interpretation of the Black Lives Matter Movement, including the problem with selective compassion- when we are not able to perceive humans through the lens of awareness, but instead through division and different belief systems. He also discusses the relationship between collective karma and individual actions, and concerns with protests as they relate to the WallStreet and Me Too Movements. Instead of reacting with anger, it's important to cultivate and work on finding solutions. With the help of two mantras, we hope this episode helps all seekers cultivate a deeper meaning to the protests, and a stronger connection to the path of self realization. The two mantras from this episode include: Bhagwad Gita: yada yada hi dharmasya glanir bhavati bharata abhyutthanam adharmasya tadatmanam srjamy aham vasudhaiva kutumbakam which means the world is one family.

S1 Ep 6767. Rebel with Awareness
In this episode Chandresh shares his childhood experiences in recognizing the privilege he grew up with in the Brahmin Caste in India. Through these experiences, he learned to channel his privilege to bring empowerment and strength to those around him through unlearning and rewiring a lot of the belief systems around him. After moving from India to the US, he started seeing a different caste system heavily influenced by race. In this episode, he discusses how racism is deeply rooted in our minds and why change has to happen from a deeper fundamental level to make permanent change. He also discusses how to rebel with awareness by choosing your own path, and by stepping away from shaming others if their path looks different from your own. Rebellion is not a one dimensional lane, and we hope this episode guides you to find deep everlasting change along your rebellion journey.

Answering questions like, "Was Osho a wise and sage teacher?" and "Why is transcendental meditation not the highest expression of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi?" We will also take a dive into how to find the right guru, be the right student, and what can go wrong between a guru and student relationship. This is a longer episode filled with many ups and downs. We invite you to receive this episode with openness as it offers you insight in your search to find the right teacher.

S1 Ep 6565. Infinite Freedom - Mantra Meditation
We all are looking for freedom, but when we are stuck in the limited dimensions of the mind, we look for freedom from things. Often the material- all the things that are bothering us in a moment. We never look for the bigger freedom, which is the freedom to rather than the freedom from. In freedom to, the seeker seeks the freedom to simply be, to bloom, live our truth unapologetically, and exist fearlessly. In this meditation, we use the mantra aham brahma which means "I am the infinite awareness," or "I am the extension of the universe and the universe is the extension of me." This mantra instantly brings us to that ultimate freedom. The hope is that this meditation will allow you to experience that infinite freedom. The mantra can be used with this meditation, along with many other sacred meditations to heal and awaken your highest potential.
