  • How to Take Control of Your Life
    Many would be forgiven for thinking we don’t have much control over our circumstances in life or how we feel about them. At times it might feel like someone or something else is pulling the strings and we simply have to do our best to play along.The Vedic worldview has a very different perspective, which Thom outlines in detail in this podcast episode. Looking through the lens of “locus of control,” Thom explains how we can escape the mindset of inescapability, and learn to better navigate the ups and downs that life inevitably brings.Episode Highlights[00:45] Locus of Control[04:23] Self-Sufficiency and Field Independence[07:03] The Hypnotizable Ones[10:23] Mass Suggestibility[12:50] The Anti-Hypnotic Benefits of Vedic Meditation[15:48] Spontaneous Responsibility[20:28] The Role of Disruption in Evolutionary Change[23:02] The Downside of Contentment[27:42] Phenomenal Adaptive CapacityUseful [email protected] https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

  • Introducing  Shri 1008 Mahamandaleshwar Maharishi Vyasanand Giri Maharaj
    Vedic Meditation is rooted in an ancient Indian tradition that has preserved Vedic wisdom for millennia. The Shankaracharya Tradition, like many others, has senior custodians who ensure this wisdom remains both pure and relevant.In January 2025, Thom was honored with a role as one of these custodians, a distinction never before granted to a non-Indian. In this episode, Thom shares the story of his appointment and the ceremony where he received his new title, Shri 1008 Mahamandaleshwar Maharishi Vyasanand Giri Maharaj.It’s a fascinating and colorful journey that will leave you in awe at the scale and significance of it.Image courtesy of Leeroy Te HiraEpisode Highlights[00:45] The Naranjani Akhara[04:02] Maha Kumbha Mela - The Great Gathering of Gurus[05:54] A Meaningful Title - Shri 1008 Mahamandaleshwar Maharishi Vyasanand Giri Maharaj[08:38] A Common Lineage to Guru Deva, Swami Brahmananda Saraswati[10:35] Instant Camaraderie[13:26] Vedic Mantras Fit for the Occasion[15:14] A Mountain of Petals and Shawls[18:10] A Slow Exit[20:37] Down to the River We Go[25:26] A Cold Plunge and a Ride on a Chariot[27:46] At Home in India[31:06] Cultural Appropriation vs A Choiceless Duty to PerformUseful [email protected] https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
