Description

Welcome to Very Vedic ©, a knowledge podcast that answers the questions we all have about life today, using the oldest wisdom on the planet — the ancient Vedic texts from India.

Very Vedic © host Matt Ringrose has been teaching Vedic Meditation for over a decade in Bondi, Sydney and has been using this ancient wisdom to support his students along the way. 

In each episode Matt is joined by one of his students and together they explore relationships, letting go, finding a sense of purpose, money and any other life stuff that comes up, all through the lens of Vedic knowledge.

If you’re keen to learn how to meditate, or you have a question you’d like answered in the podcast, you can DM Matt on Instagram @bondimeditation, or email info@bondimeditation.com.au.

In episode one of Very Vedic, Matt and his student Anna explore some foundational Vedic concepts that help set up the discussions they’ll have moving forward. Anna begins by questioning the role of the ego, and asks if it is ever useful to us. Matt goes on to explain that the ego is neutral, but it is the intellect that can become mistaken and cause us to suffer. Matt shares that the purpose of Very Vedic is to help us correct our mistaken intellect, and gain an understanding of the true laws...
In episode two of Very Vedic, Matt and Anna explore the concept of deletion, and the uncomfortability that comes with letting go of old ideas, emotions and beliefs. Anna is meditating, so why does she feel anxious? Matt uses Vedic wisdom to explain that what she is experiencing is a resistance to the feeling of discomfort that comes with death — or deletion — of that which is longer relevant to her. And that it’s actually an opportunity to heal undigested and unprocessed emotions. He explains...
In episode three of Very Vedic, Matt's student Anna shares a recurring feeling of nostalgia she has for her teenage years, and identifies it’s because she had little to no responsibilities. Everything felt fun. Spirituality can feel serious and in some practices, demand a rigid sense of responsibility from us, so Anna asks Matt where fun sits in the Vedic worldview. He shares that for some of us, we can unintentionally pass judgement on other people’s unsustainable life choices when we first ...
In episode four of Very Vedic, Matt’s student Anna asks about the relevance of joy from the Vedic view, which opened up an interesting discussion about the often bumpy and sometimes traumatic path to enlightenment. Matt reveals that as we begin our spiritual journeys, or even if we’re decades in, it is common to feel like our state of mind isn’t matched to our elevated state of consciousness. He explains that if someone is experiencing a darker state of mind as they progress spiritually, then...
In episode five of Very Vedic, Matt’s student Anna starts by sharing the complete flow and blissfulness she felt while traveling to the studio to record. Matt shares that from the Vedic view, this was Anna experiencing the support of nature. In this episode, we learn that we create our own universe because our experience of the universe is based on our state of consciousness. The pair then move onto relationships, and Matt explains that it is our relationships that create the most meaningful ...
In episode six of Very Vedic — season one’s final episode — Matt’s student Anna asks for the Vedic view on Australia’s catastrophic bushfire season. She identifies it as Destruction, one of the three underlying forces that control all things, but how do we even begin to accept that there’s a bigger reason for all of this when people and animals are dying? Matt shares one interpretation from the Vedic view, with the utmost respect for the lives, homes and land lost. And that’s that Destruction...
For this special episode, recorded live in Matt's living room in Bondi, we hosted a live online discussion about the coronavirus crisis. Listeners asked questions and Matt answered them in real time. As always with Vedic Knowledge, the conversation was an exploration of the possibilities that open up when we approach life consciously, and how the challenges we face at this time contain great opportunities for growth. We hope the ideas discussed here help you to find ways to thrive, rather tha...
For this first episode of season two of Very Vedic, Anna and I explore experiences in the Covid-19 lockdown world from the comfort of my couch. No flash studios or sound recording experts on hand for this one so please excuse the touch of distortion on Anna's voice in the first half of the recording.Learn to meditate with Matt www.bondimeditation.com.au
This is a special live Q&A episode on the subject of Vedic Parenting. It's relevance isn't limited to parents though, as we’re all involved in raising children in some capacity, whether as family relations, friends etc. I was joined by Vedic Meditation teacher and mother of 20-month-old Indi, Jess Osie. We recorded the session live on Zoom with students of BMC listening and asking the questions. We discussed how to help children find their dharma (life’s purpose), the role of discipline i...
We thought that this ended up being a particularly interesting episode. We recorded it in the immediate aftermath of the George Floyd tragedy so that naturally became part of the discussion. Anna also confessed that she has been feeling a crisis of faith around the fundamental principle of Vedic Knowledge: that ultimately benevolent forces are the most powerful and that love will win out in the end. We explored how much of what we have a problem with is a projection of something unresolved in...

In this episode Anna and I explore the Vedic view on manifestation, money and compulsion, considering ideas about black magic, free will and determinism along the way. It gets pretty cosmic but is hopefully practical too! We really enjoyed making this one and have been looking forward to sharing it with you.

In this episode, the last in our second series, we look deeply into speech and how we can refine it, we explore white lies and ‘the sweet truth’ before going out with a bang with a discussion around the sometimes sensitive topic of God.

Ready to enrol? Learn to Let Go here: www.bondimeditation.com.au/learntoletgo For our comeback episode we dived straight back in at the deep end, tackling the most divisive topics of the moment (/ever?): Covid, vaccine choices and how to find our freedom in what is playing out in the world. Please excuse the less-than-perfect sound quality on this one. It's a 'lockdown' production. We'll be back to silky smoothness for the next ep. Hope you enjoy.

Ready to enrol? Learn to Let Go here: www.bondimeditation.com.au/learntoletgo In this one we find out that Matt was a competitive nightmare and how he finally managed to rein it in. We also examine why it’s so tempting to get caught up in the status game in general, and the rewards for opting out of it. Finally we take a good look at social media, what's really going on in there and whether there is a way to use it healthily. As soon as we finished recording this one we agreed it was our favo...

Ready to enrol? Learn to Let Go here: www.bondimeditation.com.au/learntoletgo After a three month hiatus we're back with possibly our most cosmic episode yet. We explore the Vedic theory that absolutely everything we experience is ultimately the result of placebo, in the sense that what we believe and expect to happen, happens. This naturally leads us into a deep exploration of the laws of manifestation and we even squeeze in a chat about dharma and finding our purpose. It's a juicy one. We ...
