In this episode, Dr. K explores why so many people feel stuck in dissatisfaction—and how deeper practices like meditation and Vedic psychology can help. Rather than just focusing on surface-level self-improvement, he breaks down the inner journey of facing suffering, understanding the mind, and building resilience.

On his iPad, Dr. K walks through Vedic psychological models that explain why we get trapped in cycles of frustration, self-criticism, and comparison. He then shows how meditation, properly understood, is not about escape but about transforming how we relate to our thoughts and emotions.

Topics include:

 
Why modern life leaves so many feeling empty

 
The Vedic psychology framework for understanding the mind

 
How meditation actually works as a journey, not a quick fix

 
Breaking free from cycles of dissatisfaction and finding deeper meaning

This episode offers both practical insights and a philosophical lens to rethink why you struggle and how meditation can become a tool for real change.
