Around March 13th marked the one-year anniversary of the first lockdown. It's been quite an experience so far as we've tried many ways to cope with the new lifestyle. In this episode, Aakrist and Gio talk about the effectiveness of lockdowns, the importance of thinking for yourself, and empowering yourself so you don't have to depend on others to do it for you.

This one starts with a (poor) reading from a passage in Yogananda's "Autobiography of a Yogi" in which he breaks down miracles in the most scientific manner possible. We make a connection to how the Law of Attraction may be connected to that (just slow miracles). We also explore a lecture from the late and great Baba Ram Dass on Love and how we get attached to the method through which we get to Love instead of just enjoying the feeling itself. Om.

If the reaper presented itself in front of you right now and said "your time's up, you have to go", would you resist or accept it? How can you get to a point where you feel guaranteed that you will be content with the Reaper's arrival, no matter when it happens? Well, that may take a bit of retrospection, a bit of diving into what you've done up until this point, how you can learn from all of it and take the steps to get closer to that point of contentment and peace. Thembekani joins us this week to explore that process.
