In this episode, Krishna Das discusses :

  • The desires we identify with
  • Being inspired through Maharaj-ji’s picture
  • The story of seeing Maharaj-ji as a giant
  • Using our will in a constructive way
  • Looking within to see what’s holding us back
  • Repetition of the name to purify our thoughts
  • A mystical story about K.K Sah’s father and Maharaj-ji
  • Continuing to come back when you notice you are gone


“Look at yourself, and try to figure out why you can’t do what you want to do. What’s holding you back? You have to solve that problem, you have to deal with those issues. Maybe it’s self-loathing, maybe it’s self doubt, maybe it’s all kinds of things, programs that are running that we’re not aware of. That’s why the repetition of the name is such a good practice.“ – Krishna Das
