| Effortless Presence: A Guided Meditation | 26 Mar 2026 | 00:13:24 | |
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.

| Luminous Awareness : A Guided Meditation on the Seer | 06 Mar 2026 | 00:42:08 | |
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.

| Vision Behind Sattva Yoga Academy - Part 2 | 19 Feb 2026 | 00:17:22 | |
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. Anand Mehrotra shares the distinction between written and oral traditions, revealing how true lineage is carried through direct experience, connection to a teacher, and the depth of embodied understanding. This episode explores the idea of lineage as a “living tradition” — one that evolves, innovates, and continues to serve humanity in relevant and meaningful ways. We also hear reflections on growing up in the sacred Himalayan region of Laxman Jhula in Rishikesh, and why this environment plays such a powerful role in the transmission of these teachings. The episode concludes with a deeper understanding of the Sattva integrated approach — and how Pranayama, Kriya, Mantra, and Asana come together as a complete path for transformation. A rich and insightful continuation into the heart of living yoga and authentic lineage.

| Awakened Tales - Garuda & Kakbhushundi : Infinite Becoming | 28 Aug 2025 | 00:22:44 | |
“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.

In this timeless tale from the Katha Upanishad, a wise soul, Nachiketa, meets Yama—the Lord of Death—and asks the ultimate question: What survives when all else fades?

Awakened Tales invites you into the timeless tradition of sacred storytelling rooted in the Yog-Vedantic path.

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 www.instagram.com/theanandmehrotra/ #storytelling #YogVedantic #AnandMehrotra #meditation #self-realisation #awakening #wisdom #consciousness #growth #unity #sattvayogaacademy #sattvaconnect #knowledge #yoga | |||

| Through the Visionary Lens - Truth | 10 Mar 2025 | 00:21:01 | |
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.

| Through the Visionary Lens - As Within, So Without | 10 Jan 2025 | 00:13:08 | |
Welcome to "Through the Visionary Lens," a podcast series dedicated to exploring the profound mysteries of existence through timeless wisdom and modern understanding.

Instead, A focus on the empowering realisation that true transformation begins within.

| Impressions - The Art of Relating | 02 Oct 2024 | 00:36:31 | |
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. | |||

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.

| Gita Insights - An Integrated Being | 20 Jun 2024 | 00:19:30 | |
Concluding our Gita Insights series, Anand invites us to recognise our Arjuna nature as we contemplate the phenomenal teachings of Krishna. Our inner longing is for unity, a wholeness that is expressed in the word Yoga. If our intention is to access that state of unity, then it is natural that the approach has to be also unified. For growth to be genuine, there has to be growth in a holistic manner. Then we will come to the state, the practice and the experience of unity, of Yoga. Be a Yogi, Arjuna. Be the one who creates unity. or more deep wisdom from the Gita: Enrol in The Bhagavad Gita Course, as given by Himalayan Master Anand Mehrotra on Sattva Connect.

| Gita Insights - The Nature of Skilful Action | 28 May 2024 | 00:15:23 | |
Continuing with Gita Insights, Krishna is advising Arjuna is to live a life where there is no failure, but rather just opportunities and possibilities. This is a brilliant insight to help us navigate the journey in this samsara, in this world, with great elegance. Do not be attached to inaction. Act you must. But let your action be an act of service and know that when your action is of the highest order, the field will respond in kind and in quality.

| Gita Insights - Enliven the Shishya Nature Within | 19 Mar 2024 | 00:18:17 | |
In this episode of the Gita Insights, Anand Ji explores another rich pearl of wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita. We say we only honour worthy inquiry; we should only teach or share insights when asked. In the Gita we have Arjuna declaring to Krishna, “I am your shishya.” A shishya is a student with a very deep inner commitment. This is the highest kind of a student. All that we value and all that we really seek in life is found at a greater depth of being. In the Gita, this wisdom is shared by Krishna with Arjuna because he is a true shishya. Enliven that shishya nature in yourself and realise life-transformative wisdom.

| Gita Insights - Arjuna or Dhritarashatra | 05 Mar 2024 | 00:17:11 | |
In this first episode of the Gita Insights series, Anand reminds us that we are listeners and students of the wisdom that Krishna shares in the Bhagavad Gita. The same wisdom is being offered to those who are listening and yet it has different effects on them, because every listener listens from his or her own consciousness state. Arjuna fully awakens and gets enlivened, while Dhritarashtra is left with deep disillusionment. Within each and every one of us, there is Arjuna, the spiritual warrior, the atman, who is here to discover the shining jewel of truth. Will you align with your own Arjuna nature and lean in the direction of growth?

| The Inquiry Sessions - Addiction and Recovery with Tommy Rosen Part 1 | 19 Oct 2023 | 00:29:53 | |
In this episode, Tommy Rosen of Recovery 2.0 and the “In The Circle”podcast joins Anand to discuss the poignant topic of addiction and recovery through the Yog-Vedantic approach. Here in part 1, Tommy’s questioning begins with the origins and structure of modern-day recovery and the current lens in which it operates. Their discussion then moves to the structure of leadership, learning to bring evolution from the Vedantic perspective, and gaining access to the field of knowledge. We learn about understanding addiction from a broader point of view, as a part of the human condition and the identification of being an addict. We gain further knowledge by working to expand on the concepts of self-forgetfulness created in time and bring to light the innate quest for bliss and connection that is the drive of the human experience.

| The Inquiry Sessions - Sacred Pilgrimage with Simon Keenan | 05 Oct 2023 | 00:56:35 | |
Join us as we continue with The Inquiry Sessions. In this episode, Sattva Master Teacher Simon Keenan converses with Anand, exploring the art of sacred pilgrimage. Simon has lived on the famous pilgrimage path, the Camino de Santiago, serving for 10 years. There he has accompanied and shared the Sattva teachings with pilgrims on their journeys. Anand brings light to the aspect of synchronicity which is often amplified and more commonly experienced on sacred pilgrimage. Whilst in the context of seeking God, Anand explores the difference between believing in God and experiencing God. One of the biggest challenges pilgrims face is returning home and integrating their experiences. In a deep sharing, Anand explains the importance of taking time to transition mindfully and of how to keep the learnings alive, especially when one has journeyed through a transformational, enlivening experience. This is also one of the key focuses of Simon's project, Wisdom of the Way (@wisdomoftheway_). This is a unique and beautiful opportunity to deepen one's understanding of pilgrimage as a journey through life, where the big outer journeys really become the vehicles for the big inner journey.

| Present Moment Awareness | 29 Jun 2023 | 00:27:22 | |

| Culture Your Mind | 25 May 2023 | 00:41:14 | |
This Episode taken from a Sattva Connect live stream, Anand takes us into deeper understanding for cultivating a better mind. When the mind is being informed by Atman (the soul), the quality of the mind is that of pristine clarity, peacefulness, connected to source intelligence. Otherwise, you’ll experience a distracted mind, dominated by negative emotions, filled with craving and aversion, fear and desire (Ahamkara or Ego). So, don’t let your mind become an architect of misery. Plant the seeds of the Banyan tree. Be the master of your mind. Stay open to source intelligence!

| Deserving Power | 04 May 2023 | 00:16:02 | |
"What you experience right now, it is totally contingent on your own deserving power, your whole life is an extension of that" The understanding of this great law of nature can alter completely your life. So take a moment to dive into this new episode from a state of deep presence, stable mind and an open heart. As we explored in previous episodes, what level of consciousness you most consistently maintain become your experience of yourself and so life. Here we refine the understanding through the concept of deserving power. What you most consistently engage in, what state of consciousness you most consistently maintain you become capable of receiving that value in your life. If you want to raise your deserving power you have to consistently engage in the new expression of you, not from thoughts, but from your state, alter your state consistently and universe will start to organise around this new frequency. Deserving power is directly proportional to your staying power. Life can only be the way you are, cannot be any other way!! When you realise that you start to work on that, consistently show in that way, creating and meeting your future making your vision possible.

| State Practice and Experience of Yoga | 12 Mar 2023 | 00:11:01 | |
This episode is a gem for practitioners on the path of evolution. To understand that the state of Yog is not at the end of the arrow, the state of yoga is now. Do not use your practice as another waiting room to get the state. Become mature practitioners instead of just chasers. Mature practitioners know that you can only arrive to the state now and this requires willingness and radical responsibility. We closed the last episode with a transformative question: What can I be aware of that can alter my consciousness state right now? So are you aware of your state?

| Exploring Consciousness - Part 2 | 16 Feb 2023 | 00:21:05 | |
Cosmic consciousness. The field from where all forms of consciousness emerge. Take a moment to dive deeper into your understanding of the fundamental base of existence. The meaning of life is to evolve and evolution at the core base is to gain greater cosmic consciousness, the finite value of consciousness gaining the value of its own capacity. Embrace this knowledge from your heart which is the seat of cosmic consciousness and have a glimpse of our own eternal nature. Brahmanda Rupa the cosmic form which is formless, the potential of all forms, the formless that collapses in form. Cosmic nature is the infinite potential of all life, a formless field that holds infinity within itself, it's intangible and accessible by every consciousness species. So learn to access the field of cosmic consciousness.

| Exploring Consciousness - Part 1 | 03 Feb 2023 | 00:34:58 | |
Receive a taste of what consciousness and cosmic consciousness are, and tune in for a life of fearlessness. During Sattva Summit 2019 Anand took us on an awakening journey into the wholeness of consciousness and consciousness states. Knower, known and the process of knowing are all consciousness. Everything is experienced within consciousness, everything is known in consciousness, and everything in life is the content of consciousness. The degree of the individuals awareness is their own consciousness state. Hold less tight to content that arises from your consciousness, increase the degree of awareness and shift your state, your life will shift accordingly.
