Episode 1831: Living Bhakti Among People Who Don't Share It / Q&A Vol. 301
There's a sticky note in Ashley's refrigerator that reads "meat section." She's the only devotee in her home, and between a loving family that doesn't share her path and a day with too few hours, her spiritual practice has started to come with a side of guilt. In this episode Raghunath and Kaustubha take questions live from the Wisdom of the Sages Autumn Retreat, exploring how to walk a spiritual path among people who aren't on it: when to be flexible, when to be firm, and why love matters more than getting every rule right. Also: who is "Rāma" in the Hare Krishna mahā-mantra, and why does the bhakti tradition insist on chanting it exactly as it was handed down, rather than remixing it? Why don't yogis eat eggs? And what do you say when someone at the Thanksgiving table asks, "So what is this thing you're into?"
