EP 19: Why is the number 108 so important in Indian spirituality?

Welcome to a new episode of Did You Know? with your host, Amish Tripathi. Today, we dive deep into the mystery and meaning behind one of the most sacred numbers in Indian culture — 108.

From chanting mantras 108 times, to mala beads, Upanishads, and even Sun Salutations in Yoga, the number 108 keeps showing up. But why? Is it just tradition, or is there a deeper cosmic and spiritual logic behind it?

Discover how 108 connects:

  • Ayurveda and energy points in the human body

  • Yoga and the heart chakra’s 108 nadis

  • Astronomy: The mind-blowing cosmic harmony between the Earth, Sun, and Moon

  • Vedic astrology and numerology

  • And how 108 is revered not just in Hinduism, but also in Buddhism, Jainism, and even Japanese New Year rituals.

Could 108 be the universe’s subtle nudge, reminding us of the connection between the self and the cosmos?

If you’re curious about spirituality, science, and sacred numbers — this episode is for you.
