Episode 77--Befriending the Mind: The Inner Battle and Its Cure

from Gita In Action Podcast · host Radha

In this powerful exploration of Bhagavad Gita 6.5, we unpack one of the most transformative teachings in the Gita: the mind can be our greatest friend—or our worst enemy. Drawing from Krishna’s wisdom and stories like the "two dogs within," this class dives into the daily inner battle we all face and how we can begin to turn the tide. We explore: Why the mind is so influential in our spiritual and emotional lives How to recognize when your mind is supporting or sabotaging you Practical tools to observe, train, and spiritualize the mind The difference between self-criticism and self-understanding How to hear and follow the voice of the Divine amidst mental noise This isn’t just a philosophical discussion—it’s a call to reclaim your inner world. Learn how to anchor your mind in something deeper, develop clarity and steadiness, and move toward lasting inner peace through connection with Krishna.
