Lessons Learned from Life: Recent Episodes
Tina Saxena
This is a series of very short podcasts on the most important and interesting lessons which I have gathered in over four decades of living what I would essentially describe as a good life despite all the ups and downs. It's been a wonderful process of great learning through experience, of getting unstuck from sticky situations, of almost coming undone at the seams, surviving it all and coming through. I look forward to sharing this paradoxical journey of life with you presented with all its imperfections!
A powerful contemplation and meditation on The Mahavakyas. This podcast talks about 'The Mahavakyas' and elaborates the benefits of listening to and contemplating upon them consistently. It also briefly explains each of the beautiful and profound verses. This can be listened to for relaxation and bringing about a calm awareness. When we listen to this just before going to sleep, it helps us not only in relaxing, but also in sowing seeds in the mind tempered with profound wisdom, that the subconscious can work upon while we sleep.

Hello and Welcome!
Today I am talking about expanding our options. Often, due to habit of thought, we consider having two choices in life, but to actually have the power of choice, we must be able to consider a multitude of options, before truly narrowing down towards a decision which is more effective.
Hello and Welcome!
Today I am talking about Multi-Perspectives, being able to see things from different points of view. I have been blessed with the pros and also given the uncomfortable cons of seeing things from multiple perspectives; it is relatively easy for me to step into another person’s shoes and see things from their viewpoint. This makes it tough to harbour rancour and hold on to feelings of hurt and anger, and pretty easy to let go and forgive, which is an immense blessing.
Hello and Welcome!
Today I am talking about keeping our communications simple. There is always more to explore and discover and yet, we tend to often overlook how simple the basics are. The more sources I tap, the more similarities I find, at the very base. It’s essential to cut through the fluff to reach the simple core of the matter.
