Vedic Worldview

Devas 101

47 min • 24 mars 2024

All of us are used to perceiving the world around us in terms of varying objective characteristics; hard and soft, hot and cold, solid and fluid, and so on.


We might even attribute subjective qualities to the world around us; hostile, inviting, harsh, comfortable…


But does it make sense to attribute ‘personality’ to the world around us?


In the Vedic worldview, it doesn’t just “make” sense, but it’s actually a natural consequence of the refinement of the senses that we can perceive personality in everything around us. 


In this episode, Thom gives us an entry-level look into the worlds of Devas. He shares a tempting glimpse into the delights that await us, especially those who maintain their regular twice-daily practice of Vedic Meditation.
