134: Seasons and Cycles: Insights into Vedic Time and Consciousness with Nandy Wise

In today’s fast-paced world, what can we learn from ancient wisdom? This very question sparked a profound conversation on the Mystical Sisterhood podcast between myself and my guest Nandita Wise.

Nandita shares that ancient teachings, like those in the Vedas, are experiencing a renaissance because they hold timeless wisdom relevant even in our modern world. Despite their age, these insights resonate with our current collective quest for meaning and direction.

We discuss the framework of Vedic time, expressed through cyclical eras known as Yugas. These eras range from the golden age of Satya Yuga, characterized by high consciousness, to Kali Yuga, a dense period where knowledge and spiritual connectivity are at their lowest. We currently reside in Kali Yuga, where global challenges and disconnection are prevalent.

The conversation emphasizes the importance of conscious living and the power of our choices. Whether it’s engaging with media or nurturing relationships, every action holds potential for resonance and change.

Embracing these insights from the Vedas can provide a deeper understanding of our place in the universe and guide us toward a more harmonious existence.
