    Wisdom of the Sages

    Truths about life from the timeless wisdom of the Bhakti-yoga tradition – fun, relevant, and deep. Learn about dharma, yoga, bhakti, and how it relates to all the basic questions of life. This show is about how to live your best life, let go of the external distractions, and uncover the spiritual happiness that lies within the heart as the true nature of the soul.

    Raghunath and Kaustubha’s connection goes back to their teens in the New York Hardcore Punk Scene of the early 80s, through serving together as Bhakti-yogi monks in the 90’s, to sharing their experiences in the world of yoga in the 21st century.

    549: Q & A - Volume 77 Oct 10, 2021
    Show notes

    How many Bhakti lineages are there, where do they stem from & what are the differences between them? / What is the difference between Bhakti for Vishnu & Bhakti for Krishna? / Are we supposed to always think about other people's comfort and forget about our own? / Isn't it wrong for God to lie, cheat or steal?


    548: The Path is Hidden in the Heart of Great Souls Oct 09, 2021
    Show notes

    the most instructive question in approaching a texts is not "what does it say?" but, "what am I looking for?" / what is the path? it's hidden in the heart an unadulterated, self-realized person / aligning one's heart with the heart of a pure devotee / what do I need to let go of to open myself to truth? / welcome the breakdowns that lead to the breakthroughs / hearing Krishna's pastimes makes yoga easy / Kunti's prayer and Arjuna's material exhaustion


    547: How to Approach a Sadhu Oct 07, 2021
    Show notes

    devotional treasures within the heart / approach a sadhu without guile or duplicity /there's hypocrisy on the Eastern paths too / the psychological effect of bowing / deep inquiry is informed by a recognition of our necessity & the absence of awareness of how to fulfill it / Maya's remedy for insincerity is suffering / in the right context and association, stories & pastimes transform / the progression from faith, associating with pure devotees, execution of the regulative principles of devotion, giving up of what has no value, being fixed, taste, attachment, affection, pure love / different things grow in different ways

    SB 3.25.23-25


    546: Broadening Our Affection to the Wider Family Oct 06, 2021
    Show notes

    evolution of inquiry precedes evolution of being / the basic dimension of the material world is death / sadhus are both beacon & burden for the conventional psyche / renounce what dilutes your attachment to God / spiritual wisdom leads to fearlessness / bhakti broadens affection to the wider family / absorption in divinity leads to forgetting material miseries / have faith in Krishna's eagerness to overlook our shortcomings / give up suffering & follow your bliss / prison in Vrndavan is better than 'freedom' in maya!

    SB 3.25.22-23


    545: What Does it Take to Be a Sadhu? Oct 05, 2021
    Show notes

    going deeper into the practices we repeat / little Karuna knows her Gita shlokas! / the peace formula / growing through the challenges / the story of Ajamil - Krishna is so kind / paka vs sucka / we recognize a sadhu by their character, not the externals / don't return the hate / practicing tolerance can make the entire day a yoga practice / once I get resentful, I'm off my spiritual path / we come in a lineage of mercy / every reaction is either a manifestation of love or a cry for love / decorating ourselves with the ornaments of a sadhu

    SB 3.25.21


    544: Spiritual Attachment Cures Material Attachment Sep 29, 2021
    Show notes

    these stories not only educate - they satisfy the soul / the mind is the pivot / Vyasadeva's despondency / Vyasadeva clarifies all the Vedic teachings through Srimad Bhagavatam / all the other yoga paths find complete auspiciousness through Bhakti / understand devotion through "spirituality" not "religion" / attachment, when applied to sadhus, opens the door of liberation / the devotional yoga of old Indian ladies / Krishna has a heart!

    SB 3.25.18-20


    543: With Material Happiness Comes Material Distress Sep 28, 2021
    Show notes

    lesson 1 - material happiness does not come without material distress – this is the law of the material world / lesson 2 - when we let go of false identification of the body as "I" & bodily possessions as "mine," - we transcend material happiness and distress / we're conditioned to believe that happiness is external / the soul is like God (transcendental to material existence & self-effulgent) & different from God (infinitesimal, not temporarily fragmented)

    SB 3.25.12-17
