Profundus
Rajat Bhatia
The goal of this podcast is to explore the deeper realms of life "intelligently". To share new profound ways of looking at the mundane and the ordinary and to demystify the mystical. Profundus invites you to embark on this deeper odyssey inwards and to help you navigate your way towards the "extraordinary world". As Nisargadatta once said, "The other world is this world seen rightly!" . . . To watch the subtitled version of these episodes and to connect with me, visit www.profundus.in

Ep. 9 - Where Are You?
The reason I made this episode is to make you question and to make you doubt something very obvious - Your place in the universe.  So instead of getting hooked to the interesting facts discussed, try to get hooked to the "wonder". This profound wonder is where spirituality begins.
