Listen "1. Introduction to The Path of Mantra"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to the Path of Mantra podcast, where Eastern wisdom meets Western seekers. In this first episode, I share the origin story of this project, rooted in my personal journey through Western mysticism, Zen Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta, and finally, the sacred science of mantra within Shakta Tantra.I speak of my awakening, my longing for a living guru, and how divine grace led me to the Shakti path under the guidance of Swami Nikhileshwarananda and his son, Arvind Shrimali. This episode introduces the key themes of this podcast: the power of mantra as a bridge between the human and the divine, the possibility of mystical connection with deities, and how mantra sadhana can transform not only your spiritual life but also your relationships, health, and material success.We explore:The three core personal qualities you need to develop in this pathHow to make your mantra practice come alive, taking it beyond mechanical repetitionHow sadhana becomes a living relationship with your chosen form of the DivineHow mantra helps you achieve fulfillment in the four goals of life according to the Vedas:Kama, Artha, Dharma, and MokshaWhat it means to become not just a practitioner, but a disciple in tantraThis podcast was born from a book I intended to write—one that now wishes to be spoken instead. May this transmission inspire and guide you in building your own connection to the unseen forces that support our evolution.
