Episode 86--When the Mind Won’t Stop: Finding Shelter in Spiritual Practice

from Gita In Action Podcast · host Radha

Have you ever had your mind spiral over a small mistake, blowing it way out of proportion? We all long for peace of mind, but it doesn’t just happen—it’s something we have to cultivate. In this class, we’ll explore what the Bhagavad Gita says about calming the restless mind, overcoming inner enemies like lust, anger, and greed, and finding a deep, unshakable happiness that doesn’t depend on external circumstances. You’ll learn why material “solutions” only lead to more dissatisfaction, how steady spiritual practice purifies the heart, and how meditation connects us to our unchanging spiritual core—and to Krishna, the ultimate source of shelter. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same patterns of anxiety or dissatisfaction, this talk will give you a refreshing perspective and practical tools to experience peace from within.
