SATSANG—Quest and Explorations with Swami Padmanabha — February 8, 2025

0:00 Introduction 4:35 Is there truth in the popular understanding that we inherit impressions through our ancestral DNA. And if so, is this related to Krishna's explanation of how the jiva travels from one body to another, being carried by impressions? 19:34 We hear in the scripture that the renounced ashram is necessary and the best, then how can other ashrams not be an impediment on our bhakti journey. And if the sannyasa ashram is not the highest, then why is it so often presented that way in sastra? 1:00:44 In Caitanya-candramrita, it is said that we cannot attain prema without purely chanting Sri Nama—can you please explain this more fully. It also says that if we remember Mahaprabhu then we will get prema. So, do we receive the seed of bhakti or experience prema right then? 1:24:21 Appreciation of the Free Radical Podcast with Madhavananda regarding the post-traumatic stress that many devotees are experiencing 1:26:54 How can we understand Nityananda's avadhut-ness in a relatable way? Watch on: https://youtube.com/live/D1saooSizYg Join us each week in this sacred space as we deepen our commitment to truth and authenticity. Emphasizing exploration over certainty, these sessions are designed to cultivate not only what we think but how we think—how we conceive of ideas and even how we approach the act of conceiving itself. Together, we support one another’s journey toward genuine understanding and growth. ****************************************************▶ PURCHASE “RADICAL PERSONALISM: Revival Manifesto for Proactive Devotion” in hardcover, paperback, and/or Kindle formats: https://www.amazon.com/Radical-Personalism-Manifesto-Proactive-Devotion/dp/B0C6BWMHB2 ▶ PERSONALISMO RADICAL: Manifiesto de Renovación para una Devoción Proactiva (Spanish Edition)https://www.amazon.com//dp/B0DF4ZNLKG ▶ PURCHASE “INHERENT OR INHERITED?: Bhakti in the Jiva According to Gaudiya Vedanta” in hardcover, paperback, and/or Kindle formats: https://www.amazon.com/Inherent-Inherited-According-Gaudiya-Vedanta/dp/B0CY2Y19X8 ▶ ¿INHERENTE o HEREDADO?: Bhakti en la Jiva según el Gaudiya Vedanta (Spanish Edition)https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D962C4CF ▶ WATCH ON FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/swamipadmanabha108 ▶ WATCH ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@SwamiPadmanabha ▶ APPLE PODCAST CHANNEL —GET ACCESS to all of Swami Padmanabha’s shows in 1 place: https://apple.co/3H7VkTJ ▶ LISTEN TO 2024 CLASSES/// ON APPLE English: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/channel/swami-padmanabha/id6451217692 /// ON APPLE al Español: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/2024-swami-padmanabha-en-espa%C3%B1ol/id1724102640 ///SPOTIFY English: https://open.spotify.com/show/5Ix99HhUNPdjhLntUE2ekN ///SPOTIFY AL Español: https://open.spotify.com/show/2zKy0F68cT1u9YIW2Vn8Mf ▶ LISTEN TO THE FREE RADICAL PODCAST/// ON APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-free-radical-podcast/id1695357827///ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/65jZn8mO9m33frMR2K1rDa ▶ FOLLOW://Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/swamipadmanabha//Twitter: https://twitter.com/swamipadmanabha ▶ WEBSITE:https://swamipadmanabha.com 2023 CLASSES/// ON APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/2023-swami-padmanabha/id1663110173///ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/4bi92FjScmyTerTyPSmjPn 2022 CLASSES:///Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/2022-swami-padmanabha/id1612578963///Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/44qTeNwSTyfw8XAkISqm4z 2021 CLASSES:///Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/swami-b-p-padmanabhas-2021-lectures/id1550171522///Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/26NBAkdleu2SN8EcKABpi3 2020 CLASSES:///Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/swami-b-p-padmanabhas-2020-lectures/id1510153566///Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/06nCDd0MBdtqWPthT1AlUm CLASES AL Español (2020-2023):///Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/ar/podcast/swami-b-p-padmanabha-en-español/id1513845684///Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4vt2pMG5jXvmz5gaeELewZ Watch on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/live/-Lg8uYY-uR0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ▶ WEBSITE▶ FACEBOOK▶ INSTAGRAM▶ YOUTUBE ********* RADICAL PERSONALISM: Revival Manifesto for Proactive Devotion.
