    Mindful Musings : Ep 1 : On Ideas, teachings and symbols and their relevance in our lives.

    The episode is a self dialogue which reflects on the relevance of Ideas and symbols in our daily lives. We understand the world around us through symbols based on our individual and collective experiences . For example the symbol, Mango means the same for most people. Likewise our understanding of the world is based on framing and labelling everything and everyone. While that is good to make sense of things, many times this symbolising comes in the way of our pure experience of something that IS…the reality that we experience in this moment. Further the episode explores the relevance and place of spiritual teachings on the spiritual path.
