Vedic Psychology Study Group
In awareness, something new quietly begins to bloom.
Enter a space of steady learning, where the open hand warmly invites you to observe your mind with clarity, ease, and curiosity. At its center, the lotus reflects what is possible—an inner awakening that gently unfolds beyond conditioned patterns, guided by the light of understanding.
WHAT IS THIS?
A weekly gathering for people who take the inner life seriously.
Every Saturday morning, a small group of people gather online. Dr. Joshi takes one concept from the Vedic psychology tradition and brings it fully to life. Not as philosophy. As something you can actually use.
We look at things like: why does this pattern keep showing up in my life? Why do the people I love do the things they do? What is the mind actually made of — and what does it take to genuinely change?
The Vedic tradition has been mapping the mind for thousands of years. These aren't just ideas. They're tools. And when you understand them, something quietly shifts — in how you see yourself, how you relate to others, and how you show up in your work.

Understand the mind's hidden architecture
Samskaras, ahankara, the three gunas — ancient frameworks that explain the things modern psychology often can't.
Apply it immediately
Each concept is unpacked with exercises, real examples, and discussions. Ancient wisdom you can use on a Tuesday morning.
Learn alongside others on the same path
A warm community of seekers, healers, coaches, and practitioners who take this work as seriously as you do.
Go deeper than you've gone before
This isn't coping strategies or surface-level reframes. It's the root. The actual architecture of why you are the way you are.
A story of real growth and change from our community.
"Participating in the Vedic Psychology Study Group has helped me greatly as a healer. I've become increasingly aware of how and why I react in certain ways — and Dr. Joshi's guidance has enabled me to recognize and work through my personal samskaras. As I've become more aware of my own reactions, my sensitivity toward my patients has deepened. Whether for personal growth or therapeutic work, I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone."

HOW IT WORKS
Three things happen here.
All of them matter.
01
Decode
Unlock the secrets of the mind. Awaken to your true self.
- Discover the hidden script
Uncover the forces shaping your emotions, choices, and relationships —Learn to recognize patterns, ego (Ahankara), and samskaras in yourself and in others.
- Read the mind clearly
Understand how the mind states of Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas influence your thoughts, feelings and interactions.
- Make sense of everything
What once felt confusing — in you and in others — becomes clear and predictable.
02
Rewire
Change how you respond, not just what you know.
-
Break repeating patterns. By becoming aware of the almighty Ahankara and its troublesome tendencies, we practice applying the Ahankara Algorithm to pause, interrupt self-serving reactions, and respond more consciously.
-
Stay steady under pressure
Through our supportive group practice of Sattvasizing our Senses, the mind becomes calm, clear, and less reactive. -
Respond with intention
Through practicing the Empathy Equation, we learn to pause before reacting, question self-centered emotional impulses, and consider another’s point of view.
03
Relate
Transform the way you connect with people.
-
Understand people deeply. You learn to truly see where others are coming from, creating the kind of empathy that makes people feel heard and valued.
-
Navigate relationships skillfully
Communicate and respond in ways that reduce tension, build mutual respect, and make interactions feel smoother and more natural. -
Experience meaningful connection
Clarity and understanding deepen trust, allowing for honest connection, reliability, and a sense of security in your relationships.

Fully alive.
Each Saturday, Dr. Joshi takes one concept from the Vedic Psychology tradition and makes it real — not theoretical, not abstract, but something you can actually feel and use. Group exercises, honest discussions, optional homework.
Every session is recorded, so you can catch up in your own time if life gets in the way. Which it will. That's fine.

CASE STUDIES
Where Human Behavior
Reveals the Hidden Mind.
Real Breakthroughs.
THE EPSTEIN FILES
Our Case Study Series brings Vedic Psychology to life through the analysis of real-world figures whose choices reveal the deeper workings of the mind. For many months, we have been studying Sandy Hill Pittman, the notorious socialite whose Everest expedition exposed powerful patterns of ego, ambition, and consequence. Next we will turn to the Epstein files to explore the psychological forces underlying power, secrecy, manipulation and moral collapse. Through these studies, timeless teachings become strikingly relevant, illuminating the ahankara and samskaras that shape human behavior at every step.
What if everything you needed to understand about the human mind was hiding inside one of the most disturbing stories of our time?
Jeffrey Epstein was a wealthy and well-connected financier who used his power and influence to exploit and abuse hundreds of young girls and women over decades. Join us in dissecting the Epstein Files through the lens of Vedic Psychology.Not from a place of scandal or sensationalism. But from a place of genuine curiosity about what drives human beings to do what they do? The corruption. The silence. The complicity. The power.
- How does a mind get there?
- What samskaras are at play?
- What does ahankara look like when it goes completely unchecked?
The Vedic tradition has been mapping the mind with such precision for thousands of years. Now it's our turn! When you hold these ancient frameworks up to a story like this one... something quietly unlocks in you. Because what you see out there, you also begin to recognize in here.
That is the real work.
These are not just questions about him. They are questions about all of us. And that is exactly what makes this class so powerful.
Case Studies
Bringing the Teachings to Life.
Step into guided case studies that transform the teachings into lived experience—exploring real people, well-known figures, and your own inner world through the lens of the Four Pillars of Vedic Psychology.
#1. The Mind Types
Sattva, Rajas, Tamas
Your mind is constantly shifting between three fundamental energies. Learn how Sattva (peace), Rajas (passion), and Tamas (inertia) influence your thoughts, emotions, and decisions. Discover how to recognize which state you’re in, how it affects your interactions, and how to intentionally shift toward clarity, balance, and purpose.
#2. Svabhāva
Ayurvedic Personality Type
Everyone has a natural, inborn nature — your Svabhāva. Understanding it is like finding the invisible operating system (samskaras) behind your mind and behaviors. Learn to leverage your innate strengths, navigate challenges with ease, and make choices that feel effortless and aligned. This is your blueprint for living from authenticity, not resistance.
#3. Ahankara
The Ego Algorithm
The ahankara (ego) isn’t just a concept—it’s a pattern-driven system shaping behavior, perception, and relationships, often outside of our awareness. Through case studies, you’ll learn to observe the ahankara in action—both within yourself and in others—and uncover the unconscious scripts driving it. With awareness, you gain the power to interrupt limiting patterns and choose a more conscious path.
#4. Empathy
The Empathy Equation
True connection starts from understanding. Explore how to decode the subtleties of others’ minds and hearts using Vedic principles. Learn to communicate with clarity, warmth, and non-reactivity. Cultivate empathy that strengthens relationships, heals conflict, and deepens personal and professional connections.
FROM INSIGHT TO IMPACT
Real experiences.
Real breakthroughs.
"This study group has been the most practical course I've ever joined. What I've learned over the past 18 months empowered me to solve and prevent tough conflicts and improve my relations, health, and life satisfaction. Through these classes, group discussions, and homework I've been learning systematically how the human mind works — which has been the key to helping me regulate my own mind and understand better why and how others feel, think, and act. This is just the beginning of Vedic Psychology unfolding in my life and I'm eager for more growth!"

Vedic Psychology Study Group
Come Study With Us →Why Saturdays?
Saturday is Saturn's day — and that's entirely intentional.
Saturday is governed by the planet Saturn (Shani) in the Vedic tradition—revered as Shani Dev, the divine force of karma, discipline, and inner transformation. Just as Saturn teaches through slow, steady wisdom rather than quick wins, our study on this day aligns us with the energy of deep reflection and karmic purification.
In Vedic thought, Shani Dev invites us to sit with our patterns (samskaras), to be honest with ourselves, and to cultivate the steadiness that real psychological growth requires. By gathering on this day, we honor the beauty of slow, profound progress—the only kind that truly lasts.
Real people. Real shifts.
"In coaching, we believe the coachee should find their own solutions. But sometimes they're not able to — not because they don't want to, but because something deeper is holding them back. Vedic Psychology helped me understand that. It helped me see which guna is playing out in someone's behaviour — and why. This awareness puts people into practice mode, where real change becomes possible."
