What if the story you tell about your past is not who you are? In this episode, Thom unpacks saṃskara, those defining moments we cling to, and shows how Vedic Meditation transforms them into smriti, clear waypoints on the path to uncovering our true identity. If you have ever felt trapped by your history, Thom’s wisdom offers a way to honor it without being defined by it.Episode Highlights[00:45] Defining Moments that Shape Our Identity[03:30] Mistaken Identity[07:38] Smriti - Awakening the Vast Consciousness Within[10:24] Like Attracts Like[12:55] Printing Out Litter in the Body[15:10] Vedic Meditation: Adding Context to Growth Experiences[16:51] Siddhartha Sees Suffering[20:13] Siddhartha Attains Nirvana: Becomes the Shakya Muni[22:56] Enlightenment is the Big Story[24:58] Q - Can smritis inadvertently revert to becoming saṃskaras?[25:15] Pragyaparadha: The Mistaken Intellect[27:42] The Intellect Cleaves to Its Former Identity[30:28] The Reluctance of Saṃskaras[32:27] Universe Having a Human Experience[34:54] Aham Brahmasmi: I am Totality[38:32] Snap Out of ItUseful [email protected] https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
