In this insightful podcast, Chandresh Bhardwaj gets raw and real about how different religions often treat women unfairly. He digs into the nitty-gritty of religious beliefs and customs, pointing out where they're mostly biased against women. Chandresh talks about the big need for change and how women can be empowered through these reforms.  In this episode, Chandresh dives into the following questions:  Why do you think every religion is anti-women? What inspired or led you to come to this conclusion? What do you mean by the subtle messages of female oppression in religions? What are some examples of subtle forms of suppression of women in religious texts? Top religions that were brought up in the threads/instagram: what about Hinduism, Sikhism, Wiccan, Judaism, Christianity, Indigenous culture/religion or Paganism? Is it possible to find religions or spiritual paths that empower women? Do any already exist? How can women lead a revolution to change these patterns? How can men be allies in supporting the empowerment of women in religion? What do you see as the role of men in supporting women's empowerment within religious contexts?

Episode 232: Chandresh Bhardwaj is a seventh generation spiritual advisor, speaker, and the author of the bestselling book, Break the Norms: Questioning Everything You Think You Know About God and Truth, Life and Death, Love and Sex. Currently based in L.A., Chandresh quit his Wall Street job to launch the nonprofit Break the Norms Movement with the intention of awakening the human awareness from its conditioned self. He is a world traveler who frequently speaks about spirituality across the globe, from Europe to Asia and the Americas. Chandresh hails from a line of spiritual healers in India that spans over seven generations, and his teachings combine ancient wisdom with a modern approach to spirituality. Chandresh is a disciple of his father, His Holiness Shri Chamunda Swami, a universally recognized authority in spiritual healing. Chandresh is revered as a credible teacher of eastern tantra traditions; the incredible healing powers of mantra, tantra, and meditation have long fascinated him. He designed his easy-to-access meditations and lessons to help students realize the truth from within. “Spirituality is a borrowed knowledge,” says Chandresh. “We must meditate to experience our own version of it.” Show notes: Why he is currently musing on human potential, rising above current circumstances and meditation. “Life gets so much better when we respond to craziness instead of just reacting.” His recount of a very normal childhood where his spiritual healer father never told him to meditate. Chandresh began meditating because he loved the strength that it gave his parents. His sister’s untimely death had him question death and God and he began wondering if divinity exists. The deep unhappiness he felt while studying business/finance in NYC and what he did to shift it. The differences in raising children between eastern and western cultures. “Don’t try to teach your kids anything; learn from them.” “The only thing we know is nothing.” Spiritual misconceptions: spiritual bling and veganism. Why he believes spirituality has become fashionable. “PDA” = Public Display of Awareness; we all want to show everyone how spiritually aware we are. “You need a spiritual guru to constantly puncture your ego. Without that, you will be a spiritual circus that you will not be able to control.” “We need to get off the bling train and get on the inner journey and path.” The main difference between a coach and a guru. A Guru is one that shows the light in you and helps you to awaken to your inner strength. The “right” guru makes you spiritually independent; you don’t depend on them. How and where to find a guru. Gurus are not self-proclaimed. They are relaxed, joyful within and extremely humble. His deep, provoking thoughts on heaven and hell. The last time he was really angry and how he handled it. Why he has meditated daily for the last twenty years on Goddess Kali.

Believe it or not, Tantra is MUCH more than a sexual practice. Tantra is an ancient Vedic science based on experiencing ALL human emotions—joy, anger, sexuality, sadness and everything in between. Nothing is considered good or bad—everything is just accepted as a part of us that can be channeled into source energy. I learned SO much about Tantra is in incredible episode with seventh generation Tantra expert and spiritual advisor Chandresh Bhardwaj, who is the author of “Break the Norms: Questioning Everything You Think You Know About God and Truth, Life and Death, Love and Sex” with foreword by His Holiness the Dalai Lama (amazing right?!) We sat down in my home to discuss -his journey from student in India to wall -street broker in New York to spiritual advisor and meditation leader -the truth about Tantra -the goddess Kali—and how she is so much more than just the Goddess of Destruction -accepting your shadows -how you hold onto your ancestors strengths and weaknesses -what it’s like to have a guru for a Dad and Grandpa -how NOT to put on pressure to on your kids to be a certain way -how he manifested the Dalai Lama writing the foreword to his book and so much more. We have SO much in common so if you like hearing from me, you’ll LOVE hearing from Chandresh!

Today, Tammi and Sondra talk to Erin Shaw Street. Erin is a travel writer and editor based in Birmingham, Alabama.

Erin's motto is to “live life unedited” and with her side-kick, 11 year old son Nate, she is doing it better than well. This week Erin shares three items from her Unruffled Toolbox: (1) Pilates; (2) Chandresh Bhardwaj's “Break The Norms” Meditation App + Noah Levine's Youtube Meditations; and (3) The Bible.

You’ll hear from spiritual advisor Chandresh Bhardwaj, who quit his job on Wall Street to follow in the footsteps of his father as a spiritual leader; Mohammed Al-Sawami, who bravely challenged his religion in a country where it was illegal to do so; holistic health coach Cassandra Bodzak, who turned away from both the trendy and traditional “rules” for eating in favor of listening to her body; and filmmaker Jordan Taylor Wright, whose spirituality guided his art and continues to empower his incredible creativity. Join us in a discussion on taking a critical look at the philosophies and expectations we sometimes take for granted, and how to ultimately make your own decisions, form independent belief systems, and BE YOUR OWN GURU.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dentalks-powered-by-den-meditation7294/donations

Includes a five minute "Who Am I" meditation.This week is our third episode of our COVID-19: Perspective Series. In this episode, we sit down with one of our first DEN instructors, author and spiritual advisor Chandresh Bhardwaj to talk about COVID-19 from a spiritual perspective. Because we are living in a time where there is a collective energy of anxiety, anger and pain, Chandresh talks to us about how it’s now more important than ever to give a conscious outlet to our feelings and expression. For many people, there will be pressure to avoid negative feelings and focus on the positive, but this will actually cause feelings to come back and multiply. So how can we deal with it instead? We talk about how having reverence for both the dark and light energy can help you reframe this experience to cultivate gratitude and trust. This is the time to let go of ego trips and grudges, to respect your existence and mother nature. Chandresh explains how creating this trust will help you to understand your existence beyond the body, and beyond the emotions and thoughts that are running in you so you can realize your own strength. After the episode, Chandresh leads us into a five minute “Who Am I” meditation practice to help you feel more grounded.Don't miss his VIRTUAL WORKSHOP with us THIS SATURDAY April 25th!
