The Meaning

What is the 8th Element?

It is Oxygen — the breath of life. We cannot live without it. And for the soul's nourishment and awakening, we need this life-giving information: based on clear thinking and transcendental knowledge.

Most podcasts keep politics and spirituality separate. We don't.

As a trio of decades-long practicing bhakti yogis and Vaishnavas, we unpack hidden truths, challenge power structures, and apply common sense to understand a rapidly changing world.
