Description

This episode comes from a group meditation Q&A where a student asked about falling asleep in meditation and why it keeps on happening. We explore why meditation is a practice of two-fold revealing and the importance of allowing cosmic intelligence to take the drivers seat in life. If you’ve ever fallen asleep while meditating, we hope this gives you a new perspective to see everything is just as it should be.

We hope you enjoy!

What we talk about:

Why meditation is a practice of two-fold revealing
Surrender and letting cosmic intelligence take the drivers seat
What the true purpose of Vedic meditation is
Why we need to accept and allow all experiences in meditation
