A podcast on high thinking and happy living with Vivek Gupta.
When faced with hardships and our will to persevere weakens, we often feel overwhelmed and impatient with ourselves and others. Those with stronger willpower are more patient and balanced and remain unaffected by their contexts. Samata (balance) is when our willpower is stronger than world power; this is accomplished by being focused and remaining centered despite inner distractions. Unitasking, using a planner, utilizing our time effectively, and engaging in sadhana can help us become and remain balanced.

In this season of Live Vedanta, we are sharing insights on Courageous Caregiving through Vibhishana Gita. Forgiving others and oneself is often the biggest struggle in caregiving. We often as we hold onto past mistakes and create more stress around it, in turn holding us back from finding joy. By starting to practice shama (quieting the mind) and accepting that creation is inherently imperfect, we are able to interact with the world around us in a much smoother, less judgemental way. By working on accepting oneself, we are then able to channel that outwards to those we care for as well.

In this season of Live Vedanta, we are sharing insights on Courageous Caregiving through Vibhishana Gita. This episode focuses on the idea of parahita (empathy), which starts at the thought level with a general concern for others and their well-being and then moves onto comforting them with words and ultimately taking action. Cultivating empathy requires the other virtues we have explored - bala (energy), viveka (enthusiasm) and dama (discipline). Through this, one starts practicing shravana (active listening), manana (active learning) and nidhidhyasana (active living) to convert empathy from just a feeling to a purposeful way of living.

In this season of Live Vedanta, we are sharing insights on Courageous Caregiving through Vibhishana Gita. In the constantly moving world around us, focusing our attention on dama (calmness of the body) through discipline can be the catalyst to developing a quieter mind, still the intellect, and finally silence the ego.
