18. Wellbeing - Embracing the Wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita

Ritam - Being in Balance. A Podcast on Wellbeing

Discover the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita as Swami Tadananda offers insights into finding balance amidst chaos, a quest as relevant today as it was on the ancient battlefield of Kurukshetra. Our conversation traverses the depths of 'sthita pragna,' the art of poised mindfulness, and its application beyond the realm of ascetics—speaking directly to those of us facing our own modern-day battles. Swami Tadananda unveils Krishna's timeless guidance to Arjuna, revealing how understanding our spiritual nature can be the key to performing our worldly duties with grace and detachment from overpowering emotions.
Venturing beyond mere philosophical discourse, we tackle the interplay between the mind and the brain, likening them to software and hardware charged with a 'spiritual electricity.' In this transformative dialogue, Swami Tadananda and I peel back the layers of self-identification, from the material to the spiritual, and illustrate how embracing our inner divinity equips us with unshakeable strength and peace. We share practices like satsang and meditation as tools to nurture this spiritual connection—guiding you to a more harmonious existence by aligning everyday actions with profound spiritual truths. Tune in for an episode that promises to nourish the soul and elevate the spirit through the art of spiritual practice and self-awareness.
