For Soul’s Sake

In this episode of Soul’s Sake, Radhika Das explores the Vedic understanding of ghosts, spirits and the soul’s journey beyond the physical body. Drawing on the Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam, he shares how attachment and unresolved desires may keep a soul from moving forward, and how sacred sound and chanting the holy names of God can offer spiritual benefit.Perhaps the deeper question isn’t whether ghosts exist, but whether we, too, are holding on to the things that keep us spiritually stuck. This is an invitation to reflect on death, cultivate Divine remembrance and learn to let go while we are still here.Because the greatest preparation for death is not fear, but remembrance.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.ioDeepen Your Bhakti: https://linktr.ee/DeepenYourBhaktiMerch: https://shop.radhikadas.com/

When your spiritual journey transforms your life, it’s natural to want to share it with the people you love. But when does sharing become preaching? And how do we honour someone else’s spiritual journey without trying to change them?In this episode of For Soul’s Sake, we explore Bhakti, Krishna consciousness, spiritual growth, devotional service, and relationships, and why compassion may be more powerful than trying to convince someone to follow our path.We also explore the story of Prahlad and Hiranyakashipu, and what it can teach us about loving someone who refuses to change.Invite, don’t convince.00:00 – Stop trying to save your friends and family09:57 – Inspiring without imposing16:10 – How spiritual do you need to be to help others?18:14 – Compassion rather than preaching26:22 – Be the missionary for yourself31:01 – Knowing when and how to share Bhakti34:52 – The story of Prahlad and Hiranyakashipu38:18 – The mission is me, not them38:51 – The For Soul’s Sake question bowlProduced 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

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

Can you go to the temple after eating meat? What if you’ve been drinking, smoking, or simply don’t feel “pure” enough?In this episode, we explore the tension between spiritual standards and compassion. We discuss whether people need to be perfect before entering a sacred space, the difference between guilt and shame, and how genuine spiritual practice can gradually transform our habits and consciousness.Through personal stories, the teachings of Srila Prabhupada, Bhagavad Gita, and the story of the hunter Mrigari, we ask a deeper question: Should we judge people by where they are, or welcome them for where they’re trying to go?00:00 — Can Meat Eaters Go to the Temple?05:52 — How Bhakti Changes Us07:19 — Intention, Awareness & Respect10:43 — Compassion vs. Boundaries12:40 — Guilt vs. Shame16:13 — Responding With Kindness20:24 — Standards Without Perfection23:32 — Bhakti Is for Everyone30:03 — Transformation Takes Time40:16 — Final ReflectionsProduced 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: https://radhikadas.komi.io/

Does becoming serious about spirituality mean leaving behind your career, money, success, and responsibilities?In this episode, we explore how the Bhagavad Gita offers a different path: not escaping our work, but transforming it into an offering to Krishna. Whatever we do and whatever we offer can be offered to Him. Bhakti isn't about withdrawing from the world - it's about bringing Krishna into the world we already inhabit.Our work, wealth, talents, and success don't have to compete with spiritual life. When offered in service, even an ordinary workday can become worship.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: https://radhikadas.komi.io/
