Matt is joined by his friend, and first time Very Vedic guest, Polly.
Polly is interested in exploring the Vedic view on money. Why is it so difficult and triggering? How can we improve our relationship with it? Can we get to a point where we are totally at ease with money? What does it mean when money isn't turning up in our life?
Another very practical, down to earth exploration of one of life's trickiest riddles.
We hope you enjoy! xLearn to meditate with Matt www.bondimeditation.com.au

For this last episode of our third season we look to the future and explore the Metaverse.
In this one Anna asks....
Why are we building it?
How will it effect our spiritual progress?
What are the dangers?
How can it be used for good?
What will karma look like in the Metaverse?
What will love look like in the Metaverse?
What is transhumanism? And do we really need the body?
We hope you find this as fascinating to contemplate as we did.

After a three month hiatus we're back with possibly our most cosmic episode yet.
We explore the Vedic theory that absolutely everything we experience is ultimately the result of placebo, in the sense that what we believe and expect to happen, happens. This naturally leads us into a deep exploration of the laws of manifestation and we even squeeze in a chat about dharma and finding our purpose. It's a juicy one.
We hope you enjoy!Love Matt & AnnaLearn to meditate with Matt www.bondimeditation.com.au

For this special episode we turned the tables and Matt asked Anna the questions.
We discuss how Vedic Meditation and Vedic Knowledge have influenced Anna's experience of day-to-day life, her relationships and her sense of purpose. Anna explains which Vedic teachings that have helped her most and why and which she has found the hardest to apply.
We hope you enjoy this excursion into the world of Anna.

In this one we find out that Matt was a competitive nightmare and how he finally managed to rein it in. We also examine why it’s so tempting to get caught up in the status game in general, and the rewards for opting out of it.
Finally we take a good look at social media, what's really going on in there and whether there is a way to use it healthily.
As soon as we finished recording this one we agreed it was our favourite for a while, possibly ever.
We hope you enjoy!

For our comeback episode we dived straight back in at the deep end, tackling the most divisive topics of the moment (/ever?): Covid, vaccine choices and how to find our freedom in what is playing out in the world.
Please excuse the less-than-perfect sound quality on this one. It's a 'lockdown' production. We'll be back to silky smoothness for the next ep.
Hope you enjoy.

In this episode, the last in our second series, we look deeply into speech and how we can refine it, we explore white lies and ‘the sweet truth’ before going out with a bang with a discussion around the sometimes sensitive topic of God.

In this episode Anna and I explore the Vedic view on manifestation, money and compulsion, considering ideas about black magic, free will and determinism along the way. It gets pretty cosmic but is hopefully practical too!
We really enjoyed making this one and have been looking forward to sharing it with you.

We hope you enjoy.

We thought that this ended up being a particularly interesting episode. We recorded it in the immediate aftermath of the George Floyd tragedy so that naturally became part of the discussion. Anna also confessed that she has been feeling a crisis of faith around the fundamental principle of Vedic Knowledge: that ultimately benevolent forces are the most powerful and that love will win out in the end. We explored how much of what we have a problem with is a projection of something unresolved in ourselves and considered what it means to be truly surrendered.
We got into some day-to-day techniques and practical responses so hopefully you will find something in this episode that helps you.

This is a special live Q&A episode on the subject of Vedic Parenting. It's relevance isn't limited to parents though, as we’re all involved in raising children in some capacity, whether as family relations, friends etc.
I was joined by Vedic Meditation teacher and mother of 20-month-old Indi, Jess Osie. We recorded the session live on Zoom with students of BMC listening and asking the questions.
We discussed how to help children find their dharma (life’s purpose), the role of discipline in parenting, how to navigate around drugs and other social challenges and generally how to help children to be less fearful, happier and more fulfilled.
Parenting is a sensitive and huge topic and this is just one take on it, but we hope you find something useful in there.Learn to meditate with Matt www.bondimeditation.com.au

For this first episode of season two of Very Vedic, Anna and I explore experiences in the Covid-19 lockdown world from the comfort of my couch. No flash studios or sound recording experts on hand for this one so please excuse the touch of distortion on Anna's voice in the first half of the recording.

For this special episode, recorded live in Matt's living room in Bondi, we hosted a live online discussion about the coronavirus crisis. Listeners asked questions and Matt answered them in real time.
As always with Vedic Knowledge, the conversation was an exploration of the possibilities that open up when we approach life consciously, and how the challenges we face at this time contain great opportunities for growth.
We hope the ideas discussed here help you to find ways to thrive, rather than just survive, at this unique time in our lives.Learn to meditate with Matt www.bondimeditation.com.au

In episode six of Very Vedic — season one’s final episode — Matt’s student Anna asks for the Vedic view on Australia’s catastrophic bushfire season. She identifies it as Destruction, one of the three underlying forces that control all things, but how do we even begin to accept that there’s a bigger reason for all of this when people and animals are dying?
Matt shares one interpretation from the Vedic view, with the utmost respect for the lives, homes and land lost. And that’s that Destruction isn’t inherently evil. Its purpose is to create more space for more creation to come.
What he explains in this episode, is that Nature would like us to learn and evolve through consciousness and connection. And what does Nature need in order to teach us? Our attention. And how does it get our attention? Obvious, dramatic and even painful events that wake us up to what we’re doing wrong.
From the Vedic view, the world is always in one of four stages (or ages, or yugas) — Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dvapara Yuga and Kali Yuga. Right now we’re in Kali Yuga, which is the age of ignorance.
Matt gives this context to explain why the majority of our current culture is fixed in a pursuit of external power, acquired by dominating and manipulating Nature. This creates imbalances and makes Nature scream. Nature's cries become harder and harder to avoid. It is trying to force us into a higher state of consciousness and acknowledge the inter-relatedness of all things.
So right now with Australia’s catastrophic bushfire season, we’re becoming aware that the behaviour of the world is unsustainable. This in itself is a triggering point for a lot of people — that if we have this broader perspective about catastrophes or death, that we are callous or lack compassion.
But the very fact that we’re aware of what’s at play, means we are participating with Nature through acceptance. And it is through acceptance that we move towards evolution and better things. Matt explains that this is humanity sitting in its inherent power.

In episode five of Very Vedic, Matt’s student Anna starts by sharing the complete flow and blissfulness she felt while traveling to the studio to record.
Matt shares that from the Vedic view, this was Anna experiencing the support of nature.
In this episode, we learn that we create our own universe because our experience of the universe is based on our state of consciousness.
The pair then move onto relationships, and Matt explains that it is our relationships that create the most meaningful opportunities for evolution.
Matt shares that we choose our partners because their wounds intersect with our own. We trigger each other’s wounds, which presents an opportunity to evolve.
He also shares that as we evolve spiritually, we don’t actually change, it’s our desires that change. And that we come to realise that our desires are in fact not our own, but nature experiencing itself through us.
If you’re curious about the Vedic view on love, intimacy, parenting and relationships, how we choose our partners and ending irrelevant friendships, Matt hopes you love this episode.

In episode four of Very Vedic, Matt’s student Anna asks about the relevance of joy from the Vedic view, which opened up an interesting discussion about the often bumpy and sometimes traumatic path to enlightenment.
Matt reveals that as we begin our spiritual journeys, or even if we’re decades in, it is common to feel like our state of mind isn’t matched to our elevated state of consciousness.
He explains that if someone is experiencing a darker state of mind as they progress spiritually, then karmically, that is what is most relevant for that individual to evolve.
Matt and Anna also discuss the Vedic concept of dharma — which loosely translates to purpose. He provides insight into how we can discover our dharma and live a more joyful, useful and fulfilling life.
This episode stands for the light and shade of our spiritual journeys, and seeks to close the gap between mental health and enlightenment.
