    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.

    1431: Self Luminous Vishnu Shines Within the Heart Sep 25, 2024
    Show notes

    Vishnu can not be known by the mind and senses / Vishnu is know through devotion, pure of material desire / the nondual Supreme Absolute Truth manifests as the avatars, the material energy and as the impersonal, attritubeless brahman / even our own body is not our own / the false presumption that for something to be accepted as real it must be perceivable empirically

    1430: To Love at All is to Be Vulnerable Sep 24, 2024
    Show notes

    we lock our hearts in caskets of selfishness / for the sake of love God becomes vulnerable / to practice Bhakti we need to understand who we are, who Krishna is, and the nature of the relationship / Krishna is the Purusha - the primeval, personal, animating principle / Krishna is the earth, the potter, the potter's wheel and the pot / qualifications to see the truth - vimukta-saṅgāḥ - disinfected of material conditions, bhūta-ātma-bhūtāḥ - equal to all living entities; / suhṛdaḥ - friends to everyone, aloka-vratam avraṇaṁ - flawless in carrying out spiritual vows / the foundation of spiritual knowledge / we're just little sparks switching seats

    1429: Mantras are Capsules of Spiritual Awareness Sep 23, 2024
    Show notes

    At every crossroads on the path that leads to spiritual consciousness, the mind has placed 10,000 thoughts to guard material consciousness / confronting our comforts, pleasures and fears / don't medicate- meditate / don't DEflect - REflect / seeing behind the minds of others / karmic reactions, manifest and unmanifest / Gajendra fixed his mind in his heart with perfect intelligence / the revival of divine consciousness from the previous life / capsules of spiritual awareness in the subconscious mind / harmonizing the mind with the devotional nature of the self is called yoga / Raghunath chooses mangala arati

    1427: The Externals vs the Essence - Q & A Volume 244 Sep 21, 2024
    Show notes

    As someone is not as a formal devotee, I struggle when asked to explain my spirituality. Could you offer any suggestions on how I might describe my spiritual stance to others? / If we can always pick up our spiritual life again in the next life, then what is the urgency of practicing in this lifetime? / Can you explain who is addressed as a maharaj vs a prabhu? What is a bramacari, or a sannyasi? What are the various levels of priests at the temple? Who is allowed to go on the altar?

    1426: Witnessing the Self Passing Through Shakespeare's 7 Ages Sep 20, 2024
    Show notes

    All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players. - William Shakespeare / infant, school boy, lover, soldier, justice, old man & infant again / we're destined to perform a karmic role for a few days / spiritual knowledge helps one to pass through stages of life gracefully / Same substance, but More depth / appreciation sets the mind for knowledge absorption / in our battle with illusion, we need to be in a position which maintains our strength and enthusiasm / Gajendra contemplation: "It's all coming to an end! I need to seek the real shelter"

    1425: Rethinking "Surrender" as an Active Verb Sep 19, 2024
    Show notes

    examining surrender in various contexts: military, romantic, artistic, spiritual / surrendering the ego / Kaustubha concedes that Raghu is more of a "wood guy" - but they both have to let this identity go / actively choosing to accept our fate / Krishna lets us run til we're materially exhausted / our real bio: I'm a tiny spirit soul here for a few days, to love / the elephant Gajendra's alpha existence is about to turn on a dime

    1424: An Anemic Definition of Bhakti & the Non Dual Path Sep 18, 2024
    Show notes

    Manu and the Devas are the universal staff in service of Vishnu / Manu is preserving the sad-dharma over the course of his age / the 8th canto illustrates what surrender looks like through 3 narrations (Gajendra, the churning of the ocean of milk & Bali Maharaja) / lets not redefine Bhakti in order to sound inclusive / we don't object to a person's inclination towards the non-personal energy of Krishna (brahman), but when they deny Krishna Himself, and devotion to Him - that's when we object / a description of the heavenly planets

    1423: You're Designed for Divine Love (But You're Not Ready for it Yet) Sep 17, 2024
    Show notes

    "Wisdom is not knowledge, it is a realization of the scheme and of one's own part in it." - Algernon Blackwood / THE UNIVERSAL SCHEME: you are designed to enjoy divine love (but you're not ready for it until you're free of all selfishness) / we're doing the material world wrong / the faith of Richard Dawkins / the most fantastic creation myth is that everything came from nothing / the universe is the energy, body, and property of Krishna - work in harmony with that and you never get entangled by karma / great sages get us started by working for good karma in order to connect us with the sacred texts / the same source of knowledge gives different instructions according to our level of evolution

    1422: Can Advaita and Bhakti Vedanta Both be Correct? / Q & A Volume 243 Sep 16, 2024
    Show notes

    Is it possible that both the Jnana and Bhakti paths are correct in their understanding of "enlightenment"? That some people are naturally inclined towards devotion and due to conditioning and past samskaras some are naturally inclined to the jnana path? And after the dissolution of ego some would experience universal, impersonal, infinite consciousness, and others would experience the bliss of devotion to a personal form of God?
