Human Life is Meant For Inquiry Into the Absolute Truth
Raghunath & Kaustubha discuss the answer to the big question by the sages, "How can people find complete satisfaction of the self?" The answer is pure devotion. They also discuss that human life is meant for inquiry into the absolute truth, that knowledge and detachment come automatically with bhakti, that much of the yoga (asana) in the West, as well as America in general, could benefit from some sattva guna, the slippery slope into tamas, and recalibrating on Mondays.

By Far The Bestest
This podcast is the best addiction, the healthiest binge! My transcendental Bill & Ted - I love you! Thank you for elevating our consciousness in such a fun yet deeply profound way.
Great value here
I really love this podcast, for many different reasons. Here are three of the most important ones.
Firstly, as a practitioner of bhakti-yoga myself, I’m always looking for sources where I can get regular inspiration and ‚nourishment’ so to say. Wisdom of the Sages, while providing context for and reflection on all different varieties yoga, directly and clearly talks about bhakti-yoga. So if you’re interested in an authentic presentation of yoga in general or in bhakti-yoga specifically, you are in the right place here.
Secondly, and this is perhaps most important for me personally: I feel that Raghunath and Kaustubha deeply accept and respect people’s need, ability and desire to form their own opinions and make their own decisions regarding their spiritual lives. I never feel „preached“ to, which I often do in other places unfortunately. This aspect makes possible for me to listen to something uplifting and inspiring even when I’m tired or feeling down, because I don’t have to keep my guard up. Thank you for this.
And thirdly, listening to the podcast is often extremely funny and entertaining as well. I also love the guests they choose for the show and their similar focus on positive, uplifting topics and ways of seeing the world.
I recommend this podcast to both people who want to explore their interest in spirituality and to people who’ve been practicing yoga for a long time.
