This isn’t random content—it’s a structured path into deeper truth, not easy comfort.I’m Premanand Das Bhagat (Aaron Joy), in Maine, USA. I followed the so-called spiritual path—believed everything and anything, joined a cult, and ran in circles. Through honest effort, deep unlearning, and painful self-awareness, I found clarity in Sanatana Dharma (Hinduism).Now, I speak to those who feel the same disillusionment. If you believe in asking questions, rejecting lazy universalism, and using logic and scripture together to navigate this chaotic world—you’re in the right place.🕉️ I'm a Integral Vedic Counselor, Certified Spiritual Life Coach and Ayurveda Specialist. I'm a student of Dr. David Frawley and devotee of Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya.📩 Email: [email protected]🔗 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/aaronmjoy☕ Support the channel: https://buymeacoffee.com/aaronjoyAvailable on youtube, Rumble, Spotify, Bitchute, Amazon, Audible, Apple & Google Podcasts, iHeart, Pocket Casts, Castbox, Chromecast, Listen Notes, Podcast Addict, Podcast Ranking, Podtail, People Ai, Podchaser, Everend, Rephonic, allfeeds.ai, fyyd.de.
