1523: Find Strength in Surrender: Lessons from Life's Challenges

Resist or surrender? In this episode of Raghunath and Kaustubha reflect on the inspiring examples of two women from our own Wisdom of the Sages community who joined us on our current pilgrimage to India. Despite facing serious health struggles, they’re showing grace and faith, reminding us that the path of Bhakti grants us the insights and strength to thrive under the most difficult circumstance. Their journey naturally connects to the story of Bali Maharaja—who, when stripped of everything, discovered the deepest connection to Krishna. Key Highlights: ✨ How true strength is found in surrender, not control. ✨ The parallels between our everyday struggles and Bali Maharaja’s ultimate test. ✨ Finding purpose and connection even in life’s toughest moments. ✨ Why material loss can lead to spiritual gain when we shift our perspective. Join us as we explore how surrender isn’t about giving up—it’s about rising to something higher. 🌟 Subscribe for daily wisdom and join thousands worldwide on the journey of Bhakti. 🎧 Watch or listen now! #BhaktiYoga #SurrenderAndStrength #LifeLessons #WisdomOfTheSages SB 8.22.6-14 ********************************************************************* LOVE THE PODCAST?
