What does it mean to lead with wisdom and spirituality in times of war? We explore this question through ancient and modern perspectives on warfare, drawing from the timeless teachings of the Bhagavad Gita. Shedding light on the mental state of leaders responsible for innocent casualties, we contrast their actions with Vedic warriors guided by duty and spiritual principles. Reflecting on Krishna's guidance to Arjuna, we examine the importance of fighting with knowledge and purpose, offering a stark comparison to today’s morally complex conflicts.
Our conversation reveals how propaganda dehumanises victims of conflict and explores the transformative power of spiritual teachings—highlighting knowledge and yoga as tools to combat ego and ignorance.
Join us to explore sustainable spirituality and the role of local activism in creating a more compassionate world. This episode also marks the bittersweet farewell to our beloved co-host, Keli Woods, as we celebrate his contributions and wish him success in his musical journey.

What makes a relationship truly meaningful?Whether we’re single, dating, married, raising children or navigating friendships, relationships shape so much of our lives. But Bhakti offers a different perspective on love: rather than asking what can this relationship give me?, we can ask, how can we help one another grow closer to Krishna?In this episode, we explore love, marriage, family and parenting through the lens of Bhakti, drawing on the Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam. We reflect on shared spiritual purpose, selfless service, patience, forgiveness and the power of leading by example.Because when Krishna is at the centre, a relationship can become more than a partnership. It can become a pilgrimage.Produced by: Sunni Sharma and Viraj Limbachia Filmed by: Filmwork Studios Edited by: Hannah BrownWant to connect further?Instagram: www.instagram.com/radhika_dasa/Facebook: www.facebook.com/radhikadasmusicYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/RadhikaDasWebsite: www.radhikadas.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/radhikadasKomi: radhikadas.komi.io
