About this episode

as long as I'm complaining I'll never be able to go within / what good is philosophy if it has no practical application? / tolerance is a key to meditation - big deal if you can do lotus / what is real surrender / #radicalresponsability / don't go wide, go deep / don't try to see God - but act in such a way where God will see you / Raghunath, why are you yelling at God? / the entire yoga system can be seen as a way of purifying our intention / yoga, the Vedas, knowledge, dharma, etc. are meant for realizing Vasudeva / and other discussions with Raghunath Cappo & Kaustubha Das
