Have you ever felt like you're doing everything rightâcontrolling your anger, resisting temptation, checking all the spiritual boxesâbut still not finding the peace or progress you're seeking?
In this episode of The Gita in Action, we explore Bhagavad Gita 5.26 and look at why willpower alone isnât enough to overcome the forces of desire and anger. These aren't just bad habitsâthey're rooted in our conditioning and ego. But Krishna doesnât leave us hanging. He gives us a clear path forward: not by trying harder, but by surrendering deeper.
Through relatable stories and reflections, we unpack how spiritual transformation doesnât come from fighting ourselves, but from connecting with something higher. If youâve ever burned out from self-improvement or felt defeated by your inner urges, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we explore what it means to reclaim the inner flameâthe steady, joyful presence within that doesnât depend on anything outside of us. Drawing from Bhagavad Gita 5.24â25, we talk about how real happiness arises not from chasing temporary highs, but from turning inward, seeing through lifeâs dualities, and connecting with the deeper purpose behind it all.
We reflect on how the Gita describes the liberated soulânot as someone disconnected from the world, but as someone who acts with clarity, compassion, and inner freedom. And we ask: What if spiritual life isnât about escaping lifeâs messiness, but seeing it all in light of the bigger picture?
Whether youâre feeling scattered, burned out, or just yearning for something real, this conversation is a call to come home to yourselfâand to the source of joy that never dims.

In this episode, we explore Bhagavad Gita Chapter 5, Verse 22, where Krishna shares a profound truth: material pleasures, though enticing, are ultimately sources of suffering. Why? Because they have a beginning and an endâand whatever is temporary can never satisfy the soulâs deep longing for lasting happiness.
We dive into how fleeting pleasures trap us in cycles of craving and disappointment, and how wisdom means not rejecting pleasure, but seeing its limits clearly. Through relatable examples, insights from Srila Prabhupadaâs purport, and practical tools like the "FIT" method (Futility, Insubstantiality, Temporality), this class helps us understand how to rise above the illusions of sense gratification and seek deeper joy through spiritual connection.
đĄ Topics include:
Why sense pleasures are âpregnant with miseryâ
The emotional rollercoaster of hankering and lamentation
How to strengthen our inner guidance and intelligence
What makes a spiritually grounded relationship
Why real fulfillment comes from turning inward and upward toward Krishna
Join us as we learn to discern what actually serves our soulâand begin to build a life of lasting peace, connection, and joy.

In this episode of The Gita in Action Podcast, we dive into the powerful concept of equal vision as taught by Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita. đ
When we see beyond the material world and recognize the divine essence in all living beings, we begin to experience liberationâfree from attachment, aversion, and the influence of the three modes of material nature. By cultivating spiritual vision, we can transcend judgments and discrimination, embracing love, compassion, and connection with all.
We explore how adopting this vision allows us to stay calm amidst lifeâs turbulence, view every situation as Godâs kindness, and ultimately realize our true spiritual identity. đ
Join us in this episode to learn how to rise above the material world and develop a deeper connection to the divine. đ«
