what is exploring the veda?
Ready to take your practice to the next level, to elevate your consciousness, and to shake up your reality? Then Exploring the Veda is for you.
In this six-part series, we embark on an enlightening journey into the mysteries of the cosmos and dive deep into understanding how to leverage our meditation practice to live in the most relevant, nourishing, and evolutionary way possible.
With nearly 73 hours of pre-recorded lectures broken down into six installments, each course works towards uncovering the secrets of the universe and re-awakening the ancient wisdom of Veda—the very blueprint of creation—into practical and relatable nuggets of wisdom that can be applied to everyday, modern life.
We reserve plenty of time to answer all of the questions that bubble up as a result of enlivening this profound wisdom within ourselves, and we make sure to nourish our bodies with freshly-prepared meals and snacks throughout the course.
It’s a truly beautiful experience, and past explorers have described coming away from these courses with invaluable wisdom, cherished memories, measurable benefits, and lifelong connections.
Dive into mind-bending concepts like:
how consciousness expresses itself
the fundamental laws of nature
the mechanics of manifestation
how the universe is structured and operates
the time-space continuum
the true meaning of love
how to relax and enjoy life
Learn new techniques for:
enhancing cosmic awareness
finding a balanced perspective in every situation
cultivating accurate expectations
elevating and re-inspiring past experiences
enhancing unity with everyone and everything in your life
developing celestial perception
profoundly accelerating expansion of consciousness
During each three-day immersion, we will listen to recordings made by the inspiring and blissful Thom Knoles, who is recognized as one of the world's foremost masters of Veda and its true meaning and application in today's modern world.
In between recordings, the group will enjoy in-depth discussion and live Q&A with senior teacher, Rachel Gross, who is well known for embodying Vedic wisdom in a playful, curious, and feminine way. These discussions allow the group to dive deeper into some of the mind-bending topics and to discover, together, how to integrate this supreme wisdom into everyday life.
