How does one truly enter a spiritual path—beyond the ritual and formality? It’s not about externals—it’s about what’s alive in the heart.

In this eye-opening episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore the deeper dimensions of spiritual life, focusing especially on the heart-to-heart transmission of spiritual knowledge, realization, and conviction. Through the lens of Krishna’s miraculous appearance in the womb of Devakī—and some fascinating Bhaktivedanta commentaries—they unpack the true meaning of initiation on the bhakti path: not as a mere ceremony, but as the sacred connection when divine consciousness is awakened in the heart of a seeker.

Listen in as they discuss: •⁠  ⁠How Krishna consciousness transforms any place into a sacred space •⁠  ⁠The deeper meaning of initiation beyond ritual •⁠  ⁠Why seeing God only in temples—but not in others’ hearts—misses the point •⁠  ⁠The mystical transmission from Vasudeva to Devakī •⁠  ⁠Embodying scripture vs. just quoting it

This episode is a call to go deeper—beyond external forms, into the heart of spiritual transformation.
