“Why do I keep forgetting the peace I once felt?” The sages answer with one word: Maya—the magic mist that turns a rope into a snake and stories into chains. In this 37-minute episode Sukadeva Gosvami shares a dream-within-a-dream parable, maps Maya onto modern life (doom-scrolling, echo-chambers, impulse shopping), and guides you through three tiny practices—Self-Remembering, ‘So-Ham’ mantra on the breath, and a lucid-dream seed—to thin the veil day by day. A seven-breath meditation closes the journey.
