What does it really mean to do nothing while still taking action?

In this episode, Brandt explores one of the most powerful philosophical concepts from the yoga tradition: action vs non-action as it is presented in the Bhagavad Gita, the Dao De Jing, the Yoga Sutras, and the Spanda Karika.

This teaching invites us to act from a place of presence and spaciousness, rather than striving or attachment.

Non-action is not about avoiding life. It is about being fully engaged, while staying free from ego-driven striving. By surrendering the results and aligning with a deeper sense of self, our actions become liberating rather than binding.

Learn how this foundational concept can support your meditation practice and guide you toward greater clarity, peace, and inner freedom.
