In this episode, Sister Shireen, explores the spiritual concept that the soul is eternal and cannot be purified or affected by external elements like water, as taught in the Bhagavad Gita. It critiques the common belief that bathing in holy rivers, such as the Ganges, purifies the soul, emphasizing instead that true purification comes from connecting with Divine Truth, not external rituals. The episode also reflects on how water is used symbolically in many religions for purification, but underscores the fact that true purification happens through self awareness and connecting with God.
